1) Use-after-free

EUVDB-ID: #VU20964

Risk: Medium

CVSSv3.1: 6.5 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2019-15890

CWE-ID: CWE-416 - Use After Free

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise vulnerable system.

The vulnerability exists in "ip_reass()" routine in "ip_input.c" file while reassembling incoming packets, if the first fragment is bigger than the m->m_dat[] buffer. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted packet and cause the application to crash.

Mitigation

Update the affected packages.

2) Heap-based buffer overflow

EUVDB-ID: #VU20446

Risk: Medium

CVSSv3.1: 6.9 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H/E:U/RL:U/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2019-14378

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

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error within the ip_reass() function in ip_input.c in libslirp. A remote authenticated attacker can send a large packet, trigger heap-based buffer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

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

Mitigation

Update the affected packages.

3) Improper access control

EUVDB-ID: #VU19054

Risk: Low

CVSSv3.1: 2.2 [CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2019-13164

CWE-ID: CWE-284 - Improper Access Control

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a local attacker to gain unauthorized access to sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to qemu-bridge-helper.c does not ensure that a network interface name (obtained from bridge.conf or a --br=bridge option) is limited to the IFNAMSIZ size. A local attacker can create a tap device and attach it to a denied bridge interface, bypass the Access Control List (ACL) and get access to confidential data transmitted on the bridge.

Mitigation

Update the affected packages.
