1) Out-of-bounds write

EUVDB-ID: #VU18254

Risk: Medium

CVSSv4.0: 4 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:A/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green]

CVE-ID: CVE-2019-3863

CWE-ID: CWE-787 - Out-of-bounds write

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise vulnerable system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error when processing total length of multiple keyboard interactive response messages that exceeds the value of unsigned char max characters. A remote attacker can trick the victim to connect to a malicious SSH server, trigger our of bounds write and execute arbitrary code on the system with privileges of the user, running the affected application.

Mitigation

EUVDB-ID: #VU18253

Risk: Medium

CVSSv4.0: 4 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:A/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green]

CVE-ID: CVE-2019-3862

CWE-ID: CWE-125 - Out-of-bounds read

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information or perform denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary condition when SSH_MSG_CHANNEL_REQUEST packets with an exit status message and no payload are parsed. A remote attacker can trick the victim to connect to a malicious SSH server, trigger out of bounds read and gain access to sensitive information or perform denial of service attack.

EUVDB-ID: #VU18252

Risk: Low

CVSSv4.0: 0.2 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:A/VC:L/VI:N/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear]

CVE-ID: CVE-2019-3861

CWE-ID: CWE-125 - Out-of-bounds read

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information or perform denial of service (DoS) attack.

4) Out-of-bounds read

EUVDB-ID: #VU18027

Risk: Medium

CVSSv4.0: 1.7 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:A/VC:L/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green]

CVE-ID: CVE-2019-3859

CWE-ID: CWE-125 - Out-of-bounds read

Exploit availability: No

Description

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

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary condition when processing packets in _libssh2_packet_require() and _libssh2_packet_requirev() functions. A remote attacker can trick the victim to connect to a malicious SSH server, trigger out-of-bounds read error and read contents of memory or crash the affected application.
