Description
This security bulletin contains information about 5 vulnerabilities.
1) Incorrect permission assignment for critical resource (CVE-ID: CVE-2017-0884)
CWE-ID: CWE-732 - Incorrect Permission Assignment for Critical Resource
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear
The vulnerability allows a remote authenticated user to manipulate data.
Nextcloud Server before 9.0.55 and 10.0.2 suffers from a creation of folders in read-only folders despite lacking permissions issue. Due to a logical error in the file caching layer an authenticated adversary is able to create empty folders inside a shared folder. Note that this only affects folders and files that the adversary has at least read-only permissions for.
2) Information disclosure (CVE-ID: CVE-2017-0885)
CWE-ID: CWE-200 - Exposure of sensitive information to an unauthorized actor
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:L/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear
The vulnerability allows a remote authenticated user to gain access to sensitive information.
Nextcloud Server before 9.0.55 and 10.0.2 suffers from a error message disclosing existence of file in write-only share. Due to an error in the application logic an adversary with access to a write-only share may enumerate the names of existing files and subfolders by comparing the exception messages.
3) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2017-0886)
CWE-ID: CWE-400 - Resource exhaustion
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green
The vulnerability allows a remote authenticated user to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
Nextcloud Server before 9.0.55 and 10.0.2 suffers from a Denial of Service attack. Due to an error in the application logic an authenticated adversary may trigger an endless recursion in the application leading to a potential Denial of Service.
4) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2017-0887)
CWE-ID: CWE-20 - Improper input validation
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear
The vulnerability allows a remote authenticated user to manipulate data.
Nextcloud Server before 9.0.55 and 10.0.2 suffers from a bypass in the quota limitation. Due to not properly sanitizing values provided by the `OC-Total-Length` HTTP header an authenticated adversary may be able to exceed their configured user quota. Thus using more space than allowed by the administrator.
5) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2017-0888)
CWE-ID: CWE-20 - Improper input validation
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:A/VC:N/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear
The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to manipulate data.
Nextcloud Server before 9.0.55 and 10.0.2 suffers from a Content-Spoofing vulnerability in the "files" app. The top navigation bar displayed in the files list contained partially user-controllable input leading to a potential misrepresentation of information.
