2) Information disclosure

EUVDB-ID: #VU23001

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-2019-10224

CWE-ID: CWE-200 - Information exposure

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a local user to gain access to potentially sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists within the dscreate and dsconf commands in 389-ds-base due to excessive data output, when executed in verbose mode. A local user can gain access to sensitive information, such as the Directory Manager password.

Successful exploitation of the vulnerability requires that the attacker can see the screen or record terminal session.

4) Resource management error

EUVDB-ID: #VU20063

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-2019-3883

CWE-ID: CWE-399 - Resource Management Errors

Exploit availability: No

Description

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

The vulnerability exists due to incorrect processing of tome outs for SSL/TLS connections. A remote authenticated user initiate a large number of SSL/TLS connections and consume all available workers, which will lead to a denial of service attack.
