Description

This security bulletin contains information about 6 secuirty vulnerabilities.


1) Buffer Underwrite ('Buffer Underflow') (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-45490)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise the affected system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error in xmlparse.c when handling negative length for XML_ParseBuffer. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted input to the application, trigger buffer underflow and execute arbitrary code on the system.


2) Integer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-45491)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to integer overflow within the dtdCopy() function in xmlparse.c. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted input to the application, trigger an integer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.


3) Integer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-45492)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to integer overflow within the nextScaffoldPart() function in xmlparse.c. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application, trigger an integer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.


4) Use of a broken or risky cryptographic algorithm (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-3596)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to use of a broken or risky cryptographic algorithm in RADIUS Protocol. A remote user can perform a man-in-the-middle (MitM) attack and gain access to target system.


5) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-44244)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error in WebKit. A remote attacker can create a specially crafted website, trick the victim into opening it, trigger memory corruption and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.


6) Security features bypass (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-44296)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass implemented security restrictions.

The vulnerability exists due to improper checks in WebKit. A remote attacker can trick the victim into visiting a specially crafted website and prevent Content Security Policy from being enforced.
