Description
This security bulletin contains information about 10 secuirty vulnerabilities.
1) Cross-site request forgery (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-45857)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform cross-site request forgery attacks.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of the HTTP request origin. A remote attacker can trick the victim to visit a specially crafted web page and perform arbitrary actions on behalf of the victim on the vulnerable website.
2) Open redirect (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-29041)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to redirect victims to arbitrary URL.
The vulnerability exists due to improper sanitization of user-supplied data in malformed URLs. A remote attacker can create a link that leads to a trusted website, however, when clicked, redirects the victim to arbitrary domain.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow a remote attacker to perform a phishing attack and steal potentially sensitive information.
3) Incorrect Regular Expression (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-4067)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability occurs in `micromatch.braces()` in `index.js` because the pattern `.*` will greedily match anything. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application and perform regular expression denial of service (ReDos) attack.
4) Uncontrolled Memory Allocation (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-4068)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to NPM package `braces` fails to limit the number of characters it can handle, which could lead to Memory Exhaustion. A remote attacker can send "imbalanced braces" as input, the parsing will enter a loop, which will cause the program to start allocating heap memory without freeing it at any moment of the loop. Eventually, the JavaScript heap limit is reached, and the program will crash.
5) Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-29415)
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).
6) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-28863)
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.
7) Improper validation of integrity check value (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-38552)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass implemented security restrictions.
The vulnerability exists due to an error in the policy feature, which checks the integrity of a resource against a trusted manifest. An application can intercept the operation and return a forged checksum to node's policy implementation, thus effectively disabling the integrity check.
8) Code Injection (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-39333)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary JavaScript code.
The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation in an imported WebAssembly module when processing export names. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted export names to the application and execute arbitrary JavaScript code on the system.
9) Information disclosure (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-45143)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to software send Cookies in HTTP headers during cross-origin redirects. A remote attacker can gain unauthorized access to sensitive information.
10) Prototype pollution (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-33883)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise the affected system.
The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation. A remote attacker can add or modify properties of Object.prototype using a __proto__ or constructor payload to execute arbitrary code on the system.
