Description

This security bulletin contains information about 13 secuirty vulnerabilities.


1) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-45338)

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 several Parse functions. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted input to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


2) Asymmetric Resource Consumption (Amplification) (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-45590)

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

The vulnerability exists due to improper handling of a large number of requests when url encoding is enabled. A remote attacker can send multiple requests to the server and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


3) Prototype pollution (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-48910)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform XSS attacks.

The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted input to the application and perform prototype pollution, which can result in information disclosure or data manipulation.


4) Security features bypass (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-56201)

The vulnerability allows a local user to bypass sandbox restrictions.

The vulnerability exists due to improper validation of user-supplied input.  A local user with the ability to control both the filename and the contents of a template can bypass sandbox restrictions.


5) Cross-site scripting (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-43796)

The disclosed vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient sanitization of user-supplied data in response.redirect() method. A remote attacker can trick the victim to follow a specially crafted link and execute arbitrary HTML and script code in user's browser in context of vulnerable website.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow a remote attacker to steal potentially sensitive information, change appearance of the web page, perform phishing and drive-by-download attacks.


6) Cross-site scripting (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-43799)

The disclosed vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient sanitization of user-supplied data in the "SendStream.redirect()" function. A remote attacker can trick the victim to follow a specially crafted link and execute arbitrary HTML and script code in user's browser in context of vulnerable website.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow a remote attacker to steal potentially sensitive information, change appearance of the web page, perform phishing and drive-by-download attacks.


7) Cross-site scripting (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-43800)

The disclosed vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient sanitization of user-supplied data. A remote attacker can trick the victim to follow a specially crafted link and execute arbitrary HTML and script code in user's browser in context of vulnerable website.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow a remote attacker to steal potentially sensitive information, change appearance of the web page, perform phishing and drive-by-download attacks.


8) Inefficient regular expression complexity (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-45296)

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

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient input validation when processing untrusted input with a regular expressions. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application and perform regular expression denial of service (ReDos) attack.


9) Inefficient regular expression complexity (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-52798)

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

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient input validation when processing untrusted input with a regular expressions. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application and perform regular expression denial of service (ReDos) attack.

10) Infinite loop (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-55565)

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

The vulnerability exists due to infinite loop. A remote user can consume all available system resources and cause denial of service conditions.


11) Security features bypass (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-56326)

The vulnerability allows a local user to bypass sandbox restrictions.

The vulnerability exists in the way the Jinja sandboxed environment detects calls to str.format.  A local user with the ability to control the contents of a template can bypass sandbox restrictions.

12) Incorrect Regular Expression (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-21538)

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

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient input validation when processing regular expressions. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application and perform regular expression denial of service (ReDos) attack.


13) Use of Uninitialized Variable (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-12085)

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

The vulnerability exists due to information leak when comparing file checksums. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the daemon and read 1 byte of uninitialized memory from stack.
