SB2025041693 - Multiple vulnerabilities in Oracle Communications Cloud Native Core Security Edge Protection Proxy

Description

This security bulletin contains information about 8 secuirty vulnerabilities.

1) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-47554)

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 when handling untrusted input passed to the org.apache.commons.io.input.XmlStreamReader class. A remote attacker can trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

2) Information disclosure (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-37891)

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

The vulnerability exists due to Prox-Authorization header is not stripped during cross-origin redirects when using urllib3's proxy support with ProxyManager. A remote attacker can gain obtain proxy credentials used by the library.

3) Stack-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-51074)

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

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error in the Criteria.parse() method. A remote unauthenticated attacker can trigger stack-based buffer overflow and perform a denial of service attack.

4) Incorrect default permissions (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-49582)

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

The vulnerability exists due to lax permissions set by the Apache Portable Runtime library on Unix platforms. A local user can read the named shared memory segments.

5) Improper authentication (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-12797)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform MitM attack.

The vulnerability exists due to an error when using RFC7250 Raw Public Keys (RPKs) to authenticate a server. TLS and DTLS connections using raw public keys are vulnerable to man-in-middle attacks when server authentication failure is not detected by clients.

Note, the vulnerability can be exploited only when TLS clients explicitly enable RPK use by the server, and the server, likewise, enables sending of an RPK instead of an X.509 certificate chain.

6) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-24970)

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 SslHandler when using native SSLEngine. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted packet to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

7) Resource management error (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-57699)

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

The vulnerability exists due to improper management of internal resources within the application when handling a specially crafted JSON input. A remote attacker can pass a large number of ’{’ characters to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

Note, the vulnerability exists due to incomplete fix for #VU75044 (CVE-2023-1370).

8) Uncontrolled Recursion (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-7254)

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

The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation when parsing nested groups as unknown fields with DiscardUnknownFieldsParser or Java Protobuf Lite parser, or against Protobuf map fields. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted input to the application to create unbounded recursions and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
