Security Bulletin
This security bulletin contains information about 3 vulnerabilities.
EUVDB-ID: #VU7882
Risk: Low
CVSSv3.1: 2.9 [CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]
CVE-ID: CVE-2017-1000099
CWE-ID:
CWE-125 - Out-of-bounds read
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a local attacker to obtain potentially sensitive information.
The weakness exists due to out-of bounds read. A local attacker can load a specially crafted 'file://' URL to cause the curl application to return data from system memory.
Successful exploitation of the vulnerability results in information disclosure.
Update the affected package libcurl-compat to version 7.56.0-1.
Vulnerable software versionsArch Linux: All versions
External linkshttp://security.archlinux.org/advisory/ASA-201710-7
Q & A
Can this vulnerability be exploited remotely?
No. This vulnerability can be exploited locally. The attacker should have authentication credentials and successfully authenticate on the system.
Is there known malware, which exploits this vulnerability?
No. We are not aware of malware exploiting this vulnerability.
EUVDB-ID: #VU7884
Risk: Low
CVSSv3.1: 4.6 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]
CVE-ID: CVE-2017-1000100
CWE-ID:
CWE-601 - URL Redirection to Untrusted Site ('Open Redirect')
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to redirect website visitors to external websites.
The weakness exists due to incorrect validation of redirected URL. A remote attacker can redirect the target user's curl request to a TFTP URL with a long filename to cause the target user's curl application to send portions of system memory.
Successful exploitation of the vulnerability results in information disclosure.
Update the affected package libcurl-compat to version 7.56.0-1.

EUVDB-ID: #VU8702
Risk: Low
CVSSv3.1: 5.7 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:L/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]
CVE-ID: CVE-2017-1000254
CWE-ID:
CWE-125 - Out-of-bounds read
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause DoS condition on the target system.
The weakness exists due to out-of-bounds read when parsing a directory name when connecting to an FTP server. A remote attacker can trigger memory corruption, access arbitrary files and cause the application to crash.
Successful exploitation of the vulnerability results in denial of service.
Update the affected package libcurl-compat to version 7.56.0-1.
