Description

This security bulletin contains information about 4 secuirty vulnerabilities.


1) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-3634)

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

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error when handling shared secrets. A remote attacker can supply a shared secret of a different size, trigger a memory corruption during the second key re-exchange and crash the application or potentially execute arbitrary code.

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


2) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-1271)

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

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation when processing filenames with two or more newlines. A remote attacker can force zgrep or xzgrep to write arbitrary files on the system.

Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may allow an attacker to compromise the affected system.


3) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-3580)

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

The vulnerability exists in nettle's RSA decryption functions due to insufficient validation of certain ciphertexts. A remote attacker can send specially crafted  data to the server and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


4) Out-of-bounds write (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-36518)

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

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error when processing untrusted input. A remote attacker can trigger out-of-bounds write and cause a denial of service condition on the target system.
