Description

This security bulletin contains information about 5 vulnerabilities.


1) NULL pointer dereference (CVE-ID: CVE-2019-5010)

CWE-ID: CWE-476 - NULL Pointer Dereference

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:P/U:Green


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

The vulnerability exists due to the X509 certificate parser of the affected software improperly handles X509 certificates with a certificate extension that uses a Certificate Revocation List (CRL) distribution point with empty distributionPoint and cRLIssuer fields. A remote attacker can send a request to initiate a Transport Layer Security (TLS) connection using an X509 certificate that submits malicious input, trigger a NULL pointer dereference condition that causes the application to crash, resulting in a DoS condition.


2) Integer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-20406)

CWE-ID: CWE-190 - Integer overflow

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear


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

The vulnerability exists due to integer overflow in modules/_pickle.c when processing a large LONG_BINPUT value during the "resize to twice the size" attempt. A remote attacker can supply overly large data, trigger integer overflow and exhaust all resources on the system.


3) Improper input validation (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-1060)

CWE-ID: CWE-20 - Improper input validation

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause DoS condition on he target system.

The weakness exists due to the way catastrophic backtracking was implemented in apop() method in pop3lib. A remote attacker can cause the service to crash.

4) Improper input validation (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-1061)

CWE-ID: CWE-20 - Improper input validation

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause DoS condition on he target system.

The weakness exists due to the way catastrophic backtracking was implemented in python's difflib.IS_LINE_JUNK method difflib. A remote attacker can cause the service to crash.

5) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2019-9636)

CWE-ID: CWE-20 - Improper input validation

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


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

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input when processing data in Unicode encoding with an incorrect netloc during NFKC normalization. A remote attacker can gain access to sensitive information.
