Security Bulletin

This security bulletin contains information about 5 vulnerabilities.

1) XML External Entity injection

EUVDB-ID: #VU55148

Risk: Medium

CVSSv3.1: 4.6 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2021-22922

CWE-ID: CWE-611 - Improper Restriction of XML External Entity Reference ('XXE')

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied XML input. A remote attacker can pass a specially crafted XML code to the affected application and view contents of arbitrary files on the system or initiate requests to external systems.

Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may allow an attacker to view contents of arbitrary file on the server or perform network scanning of internal and external infrastructure.

Mitigation

Install update from vendor's website.

CVSSv3.1: 4.6 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2021-22924

CWE-ID: CWE-295 - Improper Certificate Validation

Exploit availability: No

Description

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

The vulnerability exists due to errors in the logic when the config matching function does not take "issuer cert" into account and it compares the involved paths case insensitively. A remote attacker can gain access to sensitive information on the system.

Mitigation

Install update from vendor's website.

4) Use of Uninitialized Variable

EUVDB-ID: #VU55149

Risk: Medium

CVSSv3.1: 4.1 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:N/A:N/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2021-22925

CWE-ID: CWE-457 - Use of Uninitialized Variable

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to usage of uninitialized variable in code, responsible for processing TELNET requests when parsing NEW_ENV variables. A remote attacker can force the affected application to connect to a telnet server under attackers control and read up to 1800 bytes from the uninitialized memory on the libcurl client system.

Mitigation

Install update from vendor's website.

5) Improper Certificate Validation

EUVDB-ID: #VU55147

Risk: Medium

CVSSv3.1: 5.7 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:N/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2021-22926

CWE-ID: CWE-295 - Improper Certificate Validation

Exploit availability: No

Description

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

The vulnerability exists due to an error in the CURLOPT_SSLCERT option mixup with TLS library Secure Transport. A remote attacker can create a file name with the same name as the app wants to use by name, and thereby trick the application to use the file based cert instead of the one referred to by name making libcurl send the wrong client certificate in the TLS connection handshake.

Mitigation

Install update from vendor's website.
