Security Bulletin

This security bulletin contains information about 3 vulnerabilities.

1) NULL pointer dereference

EUVDB-ID: #VU17825

Risk: Low

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:Clear]

CVE-ID: CVE-2019-8376

CWE-ID: CWE-476 - NULL Pointer Dereference

Exploit availability: No

Description

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

The vulnerability exists due to NULL pointer dereference condition in the get_layer4_v6() function, as defined in the get.c source code file. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted packet capture (pcap) file to the tcpreplay-edit binary, trigger a segmentation fault and cause a DoS condition.

Mitigation

Update the affected package tcpreplay to version 4.3.2-1.

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.

2) NULL pointer dereference

EUVDB-ID: #VU17826

Risk: Low

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:Clear]

CVE-ID: CVE-2019-8377

CWE-ID: CWE-476 - NULL Pointer Dereference

Exploit availability: No

Description

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

The vulnerability exists due to NULL pointer dereference condition that exists in the get_ipv6_l4proto()function, as defined in the get.c source code file. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted packet capture (pcap) file to the tcpreplay-edit binary, trigger a segmentation fault and cause a DoS condition.

Mitigation

Update the affected package tcpreplay to version 4.3.2-1.

3) Segmentation fault

EUVDB-ID: #VU17827

Risk: Low

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:Clear]

CVE-ID: CVE-2019-8381

CWE-ID: CWE-20 - Improper input validation

Exploit availability: No

Description

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

The vulnerability exists due to an invalid memory access condition that exists in the do_checksumfunction, as defined in the checksum.c source code file. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted packet capture (pcap) file to the tcpreplay-edit binary, trigger a segmentation fault and cause a DoS condition.

Mitigation

Update the affected package tcpreplay to version 4.3.2-1.
