Security Bulletin

This security bulletin contains information about 7 vulnerabilities.

1) Security restrictions bypass

EUVDB-ID: #VU53780

Risk: Medium

CVSSv3.1: 6.4 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:L/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2019-17567

CWE-ID: CWE-264 - Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass implemented security restrictions.

The vulnerability exists due to unspecified error within the mod_proxy_wstunnel and mod_proxy_http modules.
