Security Bulletin

This security bulletin contains information about 2 vulnerabilities.

1) Input validation error

EUVDB-ID: #VU48668

Risk: High

CVSSv3.1:

CVE-ID: CVE-2020-28949

CWE-ID: CWE-20 - Improper Input Validation

Exploit availability: Yes

Description

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

The vulnerability exists due to improper sanitization of the user-supplied input when processing URI handlers in filenames. A remote attacker can pass the "file://" string in the filename and overwrite arbitrary files on the system.

Mitigation

Install updates from vendor's website.

To mitigate this issue, prevent untrusted users from uploading .tar, .tar.gz, .bz2 or .tlz files.

Vulnerable software versions

Drupal: 7.0 - 7.x-dev, 8.0 - 8.0.6, 8.1.0 - 8.1.10, 8.2.0 - 8.2.8, 8.3.0 - 8.3.9, 8.4.0 - 8.4.8, 8.5.0 - 8.5.15, 8.6.0 - 8.6.18, 8.7.0 - 8.7.14, 8.8.0 - 8.8.11, 8.9.0 - 8.9.9, 9.0.0 - 9.0.8

2) Deserialization of Untrusted Data

EUVDB-ID: #VU48669

Risk: High

CVSSv3.1:

CVE-ID: CVE-2020-28948

CWE-ID: CWE-502 - Deserialization of Untrusted Data

Exploit availability: Yes

Description

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

The vulnerability exists due to insecure input validation when processing serialized data, related to case sensitivity issues (e.g. "phar:" protocol is blocked, however  "PHAR:" is not). A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

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

Mitigation

Install updates from vendor's website.

To mitigate this issue, prevent untrusted users from uploading .tar, .tar.gz, .bz2 or .tlz files.
