Description

This security bulletin contains information about 2 vulnerabilities.


1) NULL pointer dereference (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-8740)

CWE-ID: CWE-476 - NULL Pointer Dereference

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


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

The weakness exists in the build.c and prepare.c source codes files due to NULL pointer dereference. A remote attacker can cause the service to crash.

2) Heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2017-10989)

CWE-ID: CWE-122 - Heap-based Buffer Overflow

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


The vulnerability allows a local user to crash the application or gain access to sensitive data.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error in the getNodeSize() function in ext/rtree/rtree.c when handling undersized RTree blobs. A local user can supply a specially crafted database to the affected application, trigger heap-based out of bounds read and crash the application or gain access to sensitive data.
