Description

This security bulletin contains information about 2 vulnerabilities.


1) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2019-0199)

CWE-ID: CWE-400 - Resource exhaustion

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 perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists within the HTTP/2 implementation in Apache Tomcat that accepts streams with excessive numbers of SETTINGS frames and also permits clients to keep streams open without reading/writing request/response data. A remote attacker can exhaust all available threads on the server and perform denial of service attack.


2) Infinite loop (CVE-ID: CVE-2019-0190)

CWE-ID: CWE-835 - Loop with Unreachable Exit Condition ('Infinite Loop')

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 the target system.

The weakness exists in the mod_ssl module due to improper handling of renegotiation attempts when OpenSSL 1.1.1 or later is used. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted request that submits malicious input, trigger mod_ssl loop and cause the service to crash.
