Security Bulletin
This security bulletin contains information about 4 vulnerabilities.
EUVDB-ID: #VU16183
Risk: High
CVSSv4.0: 8.9 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:P/U:Amber]
CVE-ID: CVE-2018-18311
CWE-ID:
CWE-190 - Integer overflow
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause DoS condition or execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to integer overflow in Perl_my_setenv when processing malicious input. A remote unauthenticated attacker can supply specially crafted data, trigger heap-based buffer overflow and cause the service to crash or execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.

CVE-ID: CVE-2018-18312
CWE-ID:
CWE-787 - Out-of-bounds write
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause DoS condition or execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to heap-based buffer overflow write during compilation. A remote unauthenticated attacker can supply specially crafted regular expression, trigger memory corruption and cause the service to crash or execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.

EUVDB-ID: #VU16186
Risk: Low
CVSSv4.0: 5.5 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:L/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:P/U:Clear]
CVE-ID: CVE-2018-18313
CWE-ID:
CWE-122 - Heap-based Buffer Overflow
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to obtain potentially sensitive information on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to heap-based buffer overflow read during compilation. A remote unauthenticated attacker can supply specially crafted regular expression, trigger memory leak and gain access to arbitrary data.
