Q & A

Can this vulnerability be exploited remotely?

Yes. This vulnerability can be exploited by a remote authenticated user via the Internet.

How the attacker can exploit this vulnerability?

The attacker would have to send a specially crafted request to the affected application in order to exploit this vulnerability.

Is there known malware, which exploits this vulnerability?

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

2) Memory corruption

EUVDB-ID: #VU17097

Risk: Low

CVSSv3.1: 5.7 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2018-16846

CWE-ID: CWE-119 - Memory corruption

Exploit availability: No

Description

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

The vulnerability exists in the RADOS Gateway (RGW) code base due to boundary error in the ListBucket max-keys function during bucket listing operations. A remote attacker with Ceph RGW user permissions can trigger memory corruption and perform a denial of service attack against object maps (OMAPs) holding bucket indexes.

Mitigation

Install updates from vendor's website.

3) Memory leak

EUVDB-ID: #VU17318

Risk: Low

CVSSv3.1: 2.9 [CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2018-16889

CWE-ID: CWE-401 - Missing release of memory after effective lifetime

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a local attacker to obtain potentially sensitive information on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due memory leak in improper sanitization of encryption keys in debug logging output for v4 authentication. A local attacker can trigger memory leak and gain access to plaintext encryption key information in log files.

Mitigation

Install updates from vendor's website.
