Security Bulletin
This security bulletin contains information about 5 vulnerabilities.
1) Deserialization of Untrusted Data
EUVDB-ID: #VU59148
Risk: Medium
CVSSv3.1: 6.5 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]
CVE-ID: CVE-2021-46877
CWE-ID:
CWE-502 - Deserialization of Untrusted Data
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to insecure input validation when processing serialized JsonNode values. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
Note, the vulnerability affects JDK serialization only.
Install update from vendor's website.

2) Improper Certificate Validation
EUVDB-ID: #VU72323
Risk: Medium
CVSSv3.1: 6.5 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]
CVE-ID: CVE-2021-0341
CWE-ID:
CWE-295 - Improper Certificate Validation
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform MitM attack.
the vulnerability exists due to improper certificate validation within the verifyHostName in OkHostnameVerifier.java in okhttp library in Android runtime. A remote attacker can force the system to accept a certificate for the wrong domain due to improperly used crypto and perform MitM attack.
