Description
This security bulletin contains information about 4 vulnerabilities.
1) OS Command Injection (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-11805)
CWE-ID: CWE-78 - Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an OS Command ('OS Command Injection')
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear
The vulnerability allows a local user to execute arbitrary shell commands on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to nefarious CF files can be configured to run system commands without any output. A local user can inject arbitrary commands into nefarious CF files and compromise the system or execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges.
2) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2019-12420)
CWE-ID: CWE-20 - Improper input validation
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:Green
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 when parsing multipart email messages. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted email message and consume all available resources on the system.
3) OS Command Injection (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-1930)
CWE-ID: CWE-78 - Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an OS Command ('OS Command Injection')
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:A/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary shell commands on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient sanitization of nefarious rule configuration (.cf) files. A remote attacker can supply a specially crafted .cf file and execute arbitrary OS commands on the target system.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
4) OS Command Injection (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-1931)
CWE-ID: CWE-78 - Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an OS Command ('OS Command Injection')
