Description

This security bulletin contains information about 3 secuirty vulnerabilities.


1) OS Command Injection (CVE-ID: CVE-2019-16718)

The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to execute arbitrary code.

In radare2 before 3.9.0, a command injection vulnerability exists in bin_symbols() in libr/core/cbin.c. By using a crafted executable file, it's possible to execute arbitrary shell commands with the permissions of the victim. This vulnerability is due to an insufficient fix for CVE-2019-14745 and improper handling of symbol names embedded in executables.


2) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2019-19647)

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

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input within the  r_asm_pseudo_incbin(0 function at libr/asm/asm.c. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted input to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


3) Integer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2019-19590)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to integer overflow for the variable "new_token_size" in the "r_asm_massemble" function in "libr/asm/asm.c". A remote attacker can trigger integer overflow, which will result in a Use-After-Free for the buffer tokens and cause a denial of service (DoS) condition or possibly execute arbitrary code via crafted input.

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