Description
This security bulletin contains information about 11 secuirty vulnerabilities.
1) Inconsistent interpretation of HTTP requests (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-1135)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform HTTP request smuggling attacks.
The vulnerability exists due to improper validation of HTTP requests when handling Transfer-Encoding headers. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted HTTP request to the server and smuggle arbitrary HTTP headers.
Successful exploitation of vulnerability may allow an attacker to poison HTTP cache and perform phishing attacks.
2) Race condition (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-4155)
The vulnerability allows a local user to escalate privileges on the system.
The vulnerability exists due to a race condition in KVM AMD Secure Encrypted Virtualization (SEV) in Linux kernel. A local user can exploit the race and escalate privileges on the system.
3) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-51779)
The vulnerability allows a local user to escalate privileges on the system.
The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error when handling bt_sock_ioctl in the Bluetooth subsystem. A local user can trigger a use-after-free error and execute arbitrary code on the system.
4) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-52530)
The vulnerability allows a local user to escalate privileges on the system.
The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error within the ieee80211_key_link() function in net/mac80211/key.c, within the ieee80211_add_key() function in net/mac80211/cfg.c. A local user can escalate privileges on the system.
5) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-2961)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error within the iconv() function when converting string to the ISO-2022-CN-EXT character set. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted input to the application, trigger a 4 byte buffer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
6) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-25062)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise vulnerable system.
The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error in xmlValidatePopElement when using the XML Reader interface with DTD validation and XInclude expansion enabled. A remote attacker can pass a specially crafted XML document to the application, trigger a use-after-free error and execute arbitrary code on the system.
Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may allow an attacker to compromise vulnerable system.
7) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-28182)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to reading the unbounded number of HTTP/2 CONTINUATION frames. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted input to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
8) Stack-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-33599)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error in nscd binary. A remote unauthenticated attacker can exhaust the nscd fixed size cache to trigger a stack-based buffer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
9) NULL pointer dereference (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-33600)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to a NULL pointer dereference error when nscd cache fails to add a not-found netgroup response to the cache. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
10) Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-33601)
The vulnerability allows a local user to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The
vulnerability exists due to the Name Service Cache Daemon (nscd) can terminate the service during its startup. A local use can perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
11) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-33602)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to netgroup cache assumes NSS callback is using in-buffer strings in nscd binary. A remote attacker can trigger memory corruption and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
