Description

This security bulletin contains information about 4 vulnerabilities.


1) Improper access control (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-3312)

CWE-ID: CWE-284 - Improper Access Control

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:L/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain unauthorized access to otherwise restricted functionality.

The vulnerability exists due to improper access restrictions in the application policy configuration. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted traffic to an affected device and gain unauthorized read access to sensitive data.


2) Double Free (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-3179)

CWE-ID: CWE-415 - Double Free

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Amber


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

The vulnerability exists due to a memory handling error when the generic routing encapsulation (GRE) over IPv6 traffic is processed. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted GRE over IPv6 packets with either IPv4 or IPv6 payload, trigger double free error and cause a denial of service condition on the target system.



3) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-3305)

CWE-ID: CWE-400 - Resource exhaustion

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green


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

The vulnerability exists due to application does not properly control consumption of internal resources in the implementation of the Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) module. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted BGP packet, trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


4) Resource management error (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-3303)

CWE-ID: CWE-399 - Resource Management Errors

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green


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

The vulnerability exists due to improper management of internal resources with the application in the Internet Key Exchange version 1 (IKEv1) feature. A remote attacker can send malicious IKEv1 traffic to an affected device and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
