Description

This security bulletin contains information about 14 secuirty vulnerabilities.


1) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-5685)

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 in NotifierState, when the chain of notifier states becomes problematically large. A remote attacker can trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


2) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-47561)

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

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input when parsing schema in Java SDK. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted schema to the application and execute arbitrary code on the system.


3) Resource management error (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-3859)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to improper handling of client side invocation timeout within the application when handling HTTP/2 requests. A remote attacker can send specially crafted requests to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


4) Deserialization of Untrusted Data (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-39410)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service attack.

The vulnerability exists due to reader can consume memory beyond the allowed constraints and thus lead to out of memory on the system, when deserializing untrusted or corrupted data. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application and perform a denial of service attack.


5) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-3171)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to an error in EAP-7 during deserialization of certain classes, which permits instantiation of HashMap and HashTable with no checks on resources consumed. A remote attacker can send specially crafted requests using these classes to trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


6) Exposed dangerous method or function (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-41853)

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

The vulnerability exists due to missing authorization when using java.sql.Statement or java.sql.PreparedStatement in hsqldb. By default it is allowed to call any static method of any Java class in the classpath resulting in code execution.


7) Improper input validation (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-34169)

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

The vulnerability exists due to an integer truncation issue when processing malicious XSLT stylesheets. A remote non-authenticated attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application to corrupt Java class files generated by the internal XSLTC compiler and execute arbitrary Java bytecode.


8) Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-28752)

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

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


9) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-26464)

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. When using the Chainsaw or SocketAppender components with Log4j 1.x on JRE less than 1.7, an attacker that manages to cause a logging entry involving a specially-crafted (i.e., deeply nested) hashmap or hashtable (depending on which logging component is in use) to be processed can exhaust the available memory in the virtual machine and achieve denial of service when the object is deserialized.


10) Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-46364)

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

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input when parsing the href attribute of XOP:Include in MTOM requests. 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.


11) Deserialization of Untrusted Data (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-4104)

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

The vulnerability exists due to insecure input validation when processing serialized data in JMSAppender, when the attacker has write access to the Log4j configuration. The attacker can provide TopicBindingName and TopicConnectionFactoryBindingName configurations causing JMSAppender to perform JNDI requests that result in remote code execution.

Note this issue only affects Log4j 1.2 when specifically configured to use JMSAppender, which is not the default.


12) SQL injection (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-23305)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary SQL queries in database.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient sanitization of user-supplied data in the JDBCAppender. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted request to the affected application and execute arbitrary SQL commands within the application database.

Note, a non-default configuration with enabled JDBCAppender is required to exploit the vulnerability.


13) Deserialization of Untrusted Data (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-9493)

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

The vulnerability exists due to insecure input validation when processing serialized data. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

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


14) Deserialization of Untrusted Data (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-23221)

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

The vulnerability exists due to insecure input validation when processing serialized data within jdbc:h2:mem. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted JDBC URL containing the IGNORE_UNKNOWN_SETTINGS=TRUE;FORBID_CREATION=FALSE;INIT=RUNSCRIPT substring to the application and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

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