3) HTTP response splitting

EUVDB-ID: #VU46118

Risk: Medium

CVSSv3.1: 5.6 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2020-15811

CWE-ID: CWE-113 - Improper Neutralization of CRLF Sequences in HTTP Headers ('HTTP Response Splitting')

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform HTTP splitting attacks.

The vulnerability exists due to software does not corrector process CRLF character sequences. A remote authenticated attacker can send specially crafted request containing CRLF sequence and make the application to send a split HTTP response.

Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may allow an attacker perform cache poisoning attack.

Mitigation

Install updates from vendor's repository.

4) Resource exhaustion

EUVDB-ID: #VU45957

Risk: Low

CVSSv3.1: 5.1 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:H/UI:N/S:C/C:N/I:N/A:H/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2020-24606

CWE-ID: CWE-400 - Resource exhaustion

Exploit availability: No

Description

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

The vulnerability exists due to application does not properly EOF in peerDigestHandleReply() function in peer_digest.cc when processing Cache Digest response messages from a trusted peer. A remote attacker who controls a trusted peer can consume all available CPU cycles and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

This attack is limited to Squid using cache_peer with cache digests feature.

Mitigation

Install updates from vendor's repository.

5) Integer overflow

EUVDB-ID: #VU27666

Risk: High

CVSSv3.1: 7.7 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2020-11945

CWE-ID: CWE-190 - Integer overflow

Exploit availability: No

Description

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

The vulnerability exists due to integer overflow when processing HTTP Digest Authentication tokens, if memory pooling is disabled. A remote attacker can pass a specially crafted authentication nonce and execute arbitrary code on the server through the free'd nonce credentials.

In case memory pooling is enabled, a remote attacker can replay a sniffed Digest Authentication nonce to gain access  to resources that are otherwise forbidden.

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

Mitigation

Install updates from vendor's repository.

6) Inconsistent interpretation of HTTP requests

EUVDB-ID: #VU29391

Risk: Medium

CVSSv3.1: 4.3 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2020-15049

CWE-ID: CWE-444 - Inconsistent Interpretation of HTTP Requests ('HTTP Request Smuggling')

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform cache poisoning attack.

The vulnerability exists in the way Squid processes client's requests. A remote client can send specially crafted data in the request to perform request smuggling and poison the HTTP cache contents with crafted HTTP(S) request messages.

Successful exploitation of the vulnerability requires an upstream server to participate in the smuggling and generate the poison response sequence.

Mitigation

Install updates from vendor's repository.
