Multiple vulnerabilities in IBM QRadar Pulse App

1) Resource exhaustion

EUVDB-ID: #VU88394

Risk: Low

CVSSv3.1: 5.2 [CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:C/C:N/I:N/A:H/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2024-27088

CWE-ID: CWE-400 - Resource exhaustion

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a local privileged user to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to application does not properly control consumption of internal resources. A local privileged user can pass functions with very long names or complex default argument names into `function#copy` or `function#toStringTokens` and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

Mitigation

Install update from vendor's website.

2) Inconsistent interpretation of HTTP requests

EUVDB-ID: #VU88176

Risk: Medium

CVSSv3.1: 5.3 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2024-27982

CWE-ID: CWE-444 - Inconsistent Interpretation of HTTP Requests ('HTTP Request Smuggling')

Exploit availability: No

Description

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

The vulnerability exists due to improper validation of HTTP requests. 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.

Mitigation

Install update from vendor's website.

No. We are not aware of malware exploiting this vulnerability.

3) Reachable Assertion

EUVDB-ID: #VU88175

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-2024-27983

CWE-ID: CWE-617 - Reachable Assertion

Exploit availability: Yes

Description

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

The vulnerability exists due to a reachable assertion when handling HTTP/2 packets. A remote attacker can send a small amount of HTTP/2 frames packets with a few HTTP/2 frames inside and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

Mitigation

Install update from vendor's website.

Is there known malware, which exploits this vulnerability?

No. We are not aware of malware exploiting this vulnerability. However, proof of concept for this vulnerability is available.

4) Resource exhaustion

EUVDB-ID: #VU87734

Risk: Medium

CVSSv3.1: 5.9 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H/E:P/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2024-28863

CWE-ID: CWE-400 - Resource exhaustion

Exploit availability: No

Description

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

The vulnerability exists due to application does not properly control consumption of internal resources while parsing a tar file. A remote attacker can trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

Mitigation

Install update from vendor's website.

5) Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF)

EUVDB-ID: #VU95816

Risk: Medium

CVSSv3.1: 6.5 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N/E:P/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2024-29415

CWE-ID: CWE-918 - Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF)

Exploit availability: Yes

Description

The disclosed vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform SSRF attacks.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input within the isPublic() function when handling certain IP addresses, such as 127.1, 01200034567, 012.1.2.3, 000:0:0000::01, and ::fFFf:127.0.0.1. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted HTTP request and trick the application to initiate requests to arbitrary systems.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow a remote attacker gain access to sensitive data, located in the local network or send malicious requests to other servers from the vulnerable system.

Note, the vulnerability exists due to incomplete fix for #VU86944 (CVE-2023-42282).
