Description
This security bulletin contains information about 2 secuirty vulnerabilities.
1) Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-21634)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due in `ion-java` for applications that use `ion-java` to deserialize Ion text encoded data, or deserialize Ion text or binary encoded data into the `IonValue` model and then invoke certain `IonValue` methods on that in-memory representation. A remote attacker can trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
2) Information disclosure (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-7885)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to insecure sharing of resources where the ProxyProtocolReadListener reuses the same StringBuilder instance across multiple requests. As a result, different requests may share the same StringBuilder instance, potentially leading to information leakage between requests or responses. In some cases, a value from a previous request or response may be erroneously reused, which could lead to unintended data exposure.
