Description

This security bulletin contains information about 3 secuirty vulnerabilities.


1) Improper access control (CVE-ID: CVE-2019-2740)

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

Vulnerability in the MySQL Server component of Oracle MySQL (subcomponent: Server: XML). Supported versions that are affected are 5.6.44 and prior, 5.7.26 and prior and 8.0.16 and prior. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows low privileged attacker with network access via multiple protocols to compromise MySQL Server. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized ability to cause a hang or frequently repeatable crash (complete DOS) of MySQL Server. CVSS 3.0 Base Score 6.5 (Availability impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H).


2) Improper access control (CVE-ID: CVE-2019-2805)

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

Vulnerability in the MySQL Server component of Oracle MySQL (subcomponent: Server: Parser). Supported versions that are affected are 5.6.44 and prior, 5.7.26 and prior and 8.0.16 and prior. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows low privileged attacker with network access via multiple protocols to compromise MySQL Server. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized ability to cause a hang or frequently repeatable crash (complete DOS) of MySQL Server. CVSS 3.0 Base Score 6.5 (Availability impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H).


3) Stack-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2019-3822)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause DoS condition or execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to the NT LAN Manager (NTLM) Curl_auth_create_ntlm_type3_message function creates an outgoing NTLM type-3 header and generates the request HTTP header contents based on previously received data. A remote unauthenticated attacker can send very large ‘nt response’ output data, that has been extracted from a previous NTLMv2 header that was provided by a malicious or broken HTTP server, trigger stack-based buffer overflow and cause the service to crash or execute arbitrary code on the target system.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
