Description
This security bulletin contains information about 6 secuirty vulnerabilities.
1) Information disclosure (CVE-ID: CVE-2016-2183)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to decrypt transmitted data.
The vulnerability exists due to remote user's ability to control the network and capture long duration 3DES CBC mode encrypted session during which he can see a part of the text. In case of repeated sending the attacker can read the part and reconstruct the whole text.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow a remote attacker to decode transmitted data. This vulnerability is known as SWEET32.
2) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-44487)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to improperly control of consumption for internal resources when handling HTTP/2 requests with compressed HEADERS frames. A remote attacker can send a sequence of compressed HEADERS frames followed by RST_STREAM frames and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack, a.k.a. "Rapid Reset".
Note, the vulnerability is being actively exploited in the wild.
3) Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-5072)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to allocation of resources without limits or throttling. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted input to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
4) Improper input validation (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-20955)
The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to gain access to sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation within the Compiler component in Oracle GraalVM Enterprise Edition. A remote non-authenticated attacker can exploit this vulnerability to gain access to sensitive information.
5) XML External Entity injection (CVE-ID: CVE-2017-9096)
The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to execute arbitrary code.
The XML parsers in iText before 5.5.12 and 7.x before 7.0.3 do not disable external entities, which might allow remote attackers to conduct XML external entity (XXE) attacks via a crafted PDF.
6) Command Injection (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-43113)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise the affected system.
The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation within the GhostscriptHelper.java when processing data passed via a CompareTool filename. A remote attacker can pass a specially crafted file to the application and execute arbitrary Java code on the system.
