Security Bulletin

This security bulletin contains information about 4 vulnerabilities.

1) Input validation error

EUVDB-ID: #VU18355

Risk: Medium

CVSSv4.0: 4.7 [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]

CVE-ID: CVE-2019-9636

CWE-ID: CWE-20 - Improper input validation

Exploit availability: No

Description

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.

Mitigation

Install updates from vendor's repository.

Vulnerable software versions

Fedora: 28

python34: before 3.4.10-1.fc28

CPE2.3 External links

https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2019-6baeb15da3


Q & A

Can this vulnerability be exploited remotely?

Yes. This vulnerability can be exploited by a remote non-authenticated attacker via the Internet.

Is there known malware, which exploits this vulnerability?

No. We are not aware of malware exploiting this vulnerability.

2) NULL pointer dereference

EUVDB-ID: #VU17805

Risk: Medium

CVSSv4.0: 7.7 [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]

CVE-ID: CVE-2019-5010

CWE-ID: CWE-476 - NULL Pointer Dereference

Exploit availability: Yes

Description

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.

Mitigation

Install updates from vendor's repository.

Q & A

Can this vulnerability be exploited remotely?

Yes. This vulnerability can be exploited by a remote non-authenticated attacker via the Internet.

Is there known malware, which exploits this vulnerability?

No. We are not aware of malware exploiting this vulnerability. However, proof of concept for this vulnerability is available.

3) Integer overflow

EUVDB-ID: #VU18403

Risk: Low

CVSSv4.0: 4.6 [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]

CVE-ID: CVE-2018-20406

CWE-ID: CWE-190 - Integer overflow

Exploit availability: No

Description

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.

Mitigation

Install updates from vendor's repository.

4) Improper input validation

EUVDB-ID: #VU12283

Risk: Medium

CVSSv4.0: 6.6 [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]

CVE-ID: CVE-2018-1060

CWE-ID: CWE-20 - Improper input validation

Exploit availability: No

Description

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.

Mitigation

Install updates from vendor's repository.
