Description
This security bulletin contains information about 6 secuirty vulnerabilities.
1) Stack-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-40897)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error when compiling orc files. A remote attacker can trick the victim into compiling a malicious source code file, trigger a stack-based buffer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
2) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-37371)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary condition when handling GSS message token. A remote attacker can send specially crafted token to the application, trigger an out-of-bounds read error and read contents of memory on the system.
3) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-37370)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass implemented security restrictions.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input. A remote attacker can modify the plaintext Extra Count field of a confidential GSS krb5 wrap token, causing the unwrapped token to appear truncated to the application.
4) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-38428)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass implemented security restrictions.
The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation of URL when parsing strings with semicolons within the scheme_leading_string() function in url.c. A remote attacker can pass a specially crafted URL to the application and influence its behavior in which data that was supposed to be in the userinfo subcomponent is misinterpreted to be part of the host subcomponent.
5) Missing Release of Resource after Effective Lifetime (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-2398)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to an error when sending HTTP/2 server push responses with an overly large number of headers. A remote attacker can send PUSH_PROMISE frames with an excessive amount of headers to the application, trigger memory leak and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
6) Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-24806)
The disclosed vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform SSRF attacks.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input when handling hostnames longer than 256 characters within the uv_getaddrinfo() function in src/unix/getaddrinfo.c and its windows counterpart src/win/getaddrinfo.c. A remote attacker can pass a specially crafted hostname to the application, which can be resolved to an attacker controlled IP address and initiate unauthorized 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.
