Description

This security bulletin contains information about 13 secuirty vulnerabilities.


1) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2019-9514)

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

The vulnerability exists due to improper validation of user-supplied input when processing HTTP/2 requests. A remote attacker can send specially crafted HTTP packets to the affected system trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.



2) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-1962)

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 go/parser. A remote attacker can trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


3) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-2880)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform parameter smuggling attacks.

The vulnerability exists due to incorrect handling of requests forwarded by ReverseProxy in net/http/httputil. A remote attacker can supply specially crafted parameters that cannot be parsed and are rejected by net/http and force the application to include these parameters into the forwarding request. As a result, a remote attacker can smuggle potentially dangerous HTTP parameters into the request.


4) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-32189)

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

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input in
Float.GobDecode. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted input to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


5) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-41715)

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 regexp/syntax when handling regular expressions. A remote attacker can trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


6) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-24791)

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

The vulnerability exists due to improper handling of "Expect: 100-continue" HTTP requests. A remote attacker can send multiple such requests and consume all available resources.


7) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-37298)

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 schema.Decoder.Decode() . A remote attacker can trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


8) Inclusion of Sensitive Information in Log Files (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-6104)

The vulnerability allows a local user to gain access to sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to software stores sensitive information into log files. A local user can read the log files and gain access to sensitive data obtain from HTTP requests.


9) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-9341)

The vulnerability allows a remote user to gain access to sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input. When FIPS mode is enabled on a system, container runtimes may incorrectly handle certain file paths due to improper validation in the containers/common Go library. This flaw allows an attacker to exploit symbolic links and trick the system into mounting sensitive host directories inside a container.


10) Use of Uninitialized Variable (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-9355)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to weaken TLS encryption.

The vulnerability exists due to an uninitialized buffer length variable in the CGO bindings that intermittently return a zeroed buffer from (*boringHMAC).Sum() in FIPS mode. A remote attacker can randomly cause an uninitialized buffer length variable with a zeroed buffer to be returned in FIPS mode and weaken TLS security.


11) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-9407)

The vulnerability allows a remote user to gain access to sensitive information.

A vulnerability exists in the bind-propagation option of the Dockerfile RUN --mount instruction. The system does not properly validate the input passed to this option, allowing users to pass arbitrary parameters to the mount instruction. This issue can be exploited to mount sensitive directories from the host into a container during the build process and, in some cases, modify the contents of those mounted files.

Even if SELinux is used, this vulnerability can bypass its protection by allowing the source directory to be relabeled to give the container access to host files.


12) Path traversal (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-9675)

The vulnerability allows a local user to escalate privileges on the system.

The vulnerability exists due to input validation error when processing directory traversal sequences in cache mounts. A local user can execute a 'RUN' instruction in a Container file to mount an arbitrary directory from the host into the container as long as those files can be accessed by the user running Buildah.


13) UNIX symbolic link following (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-9676)

The vulnerability allows a local user to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to a symlink following issue when running a malicious image using an automatically assigned user namespace (`--userns=auto` in Podman and Buildah). A local user can create a symbolic link to an arbitrary file on the system, force the library to read it and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
