Description
This security bulletin contains information about 4 secuirty vulnerabilities.
1) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-46669)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service attack.
The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error in the convert_const_to_int() function when processing BIGINT data type. A remote attacker can trigger use-after-free error and perform a denial of service attack.
2) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-24048)
The vulnerability allows a remote user to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error in the storage engine when processing CONNECT queries. A remote authenticated user can send a specially crafted SQL query to the affected database instance, trigger a memory corruption and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
3) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-24050)
The vulnerability allows a remote user to compromise vulnerable system.
The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error in the storage engine when processing CONNECT queries. A remote user can send a specially crafted SQL query to the database instance, trigger a use-after-free error and execute arbitrary code on the system.
Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may allow an attacker to compromise vulnerable system.
4) Heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-24052)
The vulnerability allows a remote user to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error in the storage engine when processing CONNECT requests. A remote user can send a specially crafted SQL query to the database instance, trigger a heap-based buffer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
