Description

This security bulletin contains information about 8 secuirty vulnerabilities.


1) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-45288)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient limitations placed on the amount of CONTINUATION frames that can be sent within a single HTTP/2 stream. A remote attacker can send specially crafted HTTP/2 requests to the server and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

2) Path traversal (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-29180)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform directory traversal attacks.

The vulnerability exists due to webpack-dev-middleware development middleware for devpack does not validate the supplied URL address sufficiently before returning the local file. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted HTTP request and read arbitrary files on the system.


3) Information disclosure (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-45289)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to insecure forwarding of headers and cookies to a third-party domains in net/http and net/http/cookiejar. A remote attacker can trick the application into sharing sensitive information with an attacker-controlled website.


4) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-45290)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists in net/http due to application does not properly control consumption of internal resources when parsing a multipart form (either explicitly with Request.ParseMultipartForm or implicitly with Request.FormValue, Request.PostFormValue, or Request.FormFile). A remote attacker can trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


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) Error Handling (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-24783)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists in crypto/x509 due to improper validation of a certificate chain that contains an unknown public key. A remote attacker can pass a specially crafted certificate to the application and perform a denial of service attack.


7) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-24784)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform spoofing attack.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of display names within the ParseAddressList function in net/mail. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted input to the application and perform a spoofing attack.


8) Cryptographic issues (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-28834)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform MitM attack.

The vulnerability exists due to a side-channel attack when using the gnutls_privkey_sign_data2 API function with the "GNUTLS_PRIVKEY_FLAG_REPRODUCIBLE" flag. A remote attacker can launch Minerva attack and gain access to sensitive information.
