Description

This security bulletin contains information about 4 vulnerabilities.


1) Resource management error (CVE-ID: CVE-2019-12402)

CWE-ID: CWE-399 - Resource Management Errors

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 the file name encoding algorithm can get into an infinite loop when faced with specially crafted inputs. A remote attacker can choose the file names inside of an archive created by Compress and cause a denial of service condition on the target system.


2) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-7760)

CWE-ID: CWE-400 - Resource exhaustion

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 application does not properly control consumption of internal resources when processing regular expression. A remote attacker can trigger resource exhaustion and perform a regular expression denial of service (ReDoS) attack.


3) Uncontrolled Recursion (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-8285)

CWE-ID: CWE-674 - Uncontrolled Recursion

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


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

The vulnerability exists due tu uncontrolled recursion when processing FTP responses within the wildcard matching functionality, which allows a callback (set with <a href="https://curl.se/libcurl/c/CURLOPT_CHUNK_BGN_FUNCTION.html">CURLOPT_CHUNK_BGN_FUNCTION</a>) to return information back to libcurl on how to handle a specific entry in a directory when libcurl iterates over a list of all available entries. A remote attacker who controls the malicious FTP server can trick the victim to connect to it and crash the application, which is using the affected libcurl version.


4) Infinite loop (CVE-ID: CVE-2019-0190)

CWE-ID: CWE-835 - Loop with Unreachable Exit Condition ('Infinite Loop')

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 cause DoS condition on the target system.

The weakness exists in the mod_ssl module due to improper handling of renegotiation attempts when OpenSSL 1.1.1 or later is used. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted request that submits malicious input, trigger mod_ssl loop and cause the service to crash.
