Description

This security bulletin contains information about 2 secuirty vulnerabilities.


1) Use of a broken or risky cryptographic algorithm (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-50312)

The vulnerability allows an adjacent attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to weaker than expected security for outbound TLS connections caused by a failure to honor user configuration. An adjacent attacker can gain unauthorized access to sensitive information on the system.


2) Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-22329)

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

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input. 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.
