Security Bulletin
This security bulletin contains information about 4 vulnerabilities.
1) Resource exhaustion
EUVDB-ID: #VU88184
Risk: Medium
CVSSv3.1: 6.7 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H/E:P/RL:O/RC:C]
CVE-ID: CVE-2023-45288
CWE-ID:
CWE-400 - Resource exhaustion
Exploit availability: Yes
DescriptionThe 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. MitigationInstall update from vendor's website.

3) Input validation error
EUVDB-ID: #VU87672
Risk: Medium
CVSSv3.1: 4.6 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:L/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]
CVE-ID: CVE-2024-28835
CWE-ID:
CWE-20 - Improper input validation
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input when parsing the cert_list_size parameter in the gnutls_x509_trust_list_verify_crt2() function in certtool. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted PEM encoded certificate chain that contains more than 16 certificates to the certtool and crash it.
