Description

This security bulletin contains information about 4 secuirty vulnerabilities.


1) Inconsistent interpretation of HTTP requests (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-40167)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform HTTP request smuggling attacks.

The vulnerability exists due to improper validation of HTTP requests when handling the "+" character passed via the HTTP/1 header field. 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) Inadequate encryption strength (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-48795)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform MitM attack.

The vulnerability exists due to incorrect implementation of the SSH Binary Packet Protocol (BPP), which mishandles the handshake phase and the use of sequence numbers. A remote attacker can perform MitM attack and delete the SSH2_MSG_EXT_INFO message sent before authentication starts, allowing the attacker to disable a subset of the keystroke timing obfuscation features introduced in OpenSSH 9.5.

The vulnerability was dubbed "Terrapin attack" and it affects both client and server implementations.


3) Insufficient verification of data authenticity (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-37533)

The vulnerability allows an attacker to redirect victim to a malicious host.

The vulnerability exists due to the application trusts the host from PASV response by default. A remote attacker can trick the victim into connecting to an attacker controlled FTP server and then redirect the application to another host.


4) Uncontrolled Recursion (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-1370)

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

The vulnerability exists due to uncontrolled recursion when processing nested arrays and objects. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted JSON data to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
