Description

This security bulletin contains information about 6 vulnerabilities.


1) Speculative Store Bypass (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-3639)

CWE-ID: CWE-362 - Concurrent Execution using Shared Resource with Improper Synchronization ('Race Condition')

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


The vulnerability allows a local attacker to obtain potentially sensitive information on the target system.

The weakness exists due to race conditions in CPU cache processing. A local attacker can conduct a side-channel attack to exploit a flaw in the speculative execution of Load and Store instructions to read privileged memory.

Note: the vulnerability is referred to as "Spectre variant 4".

2) Code Injection (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-2161)

CWE-ID: CWE-94 - Improper Control of Generation of Code ('Code Injection')

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


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

The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation in the java.lang.ProcessBuilder API on the Windows platform. A remote attacker can manipulate the Process command line and execute arbitrary code on the target system.



3) Improper input validation (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-2163)

CWE-ID: CWE-20 - Improper input validation

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


The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to manipulate data.

The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation within the Libraries component in Oracle GraalVM Enterprise Edition. A remote non-authenticated attacker can exploit this vulnerability to manipulate data.


4) Improper input validation (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-2341)

CWE-ID: CWE-20 - Improper input validation

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


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

The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation within the Networking component in Oracle GraalVM Enterprise Edition. A remote non-authenticated attacker can exploit this vulnerability to gain access to sensitive information.


5) Improper Verification of Cryptographic Signature (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-2369)

CWE-ID: CWE-347 - Improper Verification of Cryptographic Signature

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


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

The vulnerability exists due to an error in JAR validation implementation. A remote attacker can modify the signed JAR file in a way it will be considered as signed.


6) Improper input validation (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-2432)

CWE-ID: CWE-20 - Improper input validation

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


The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to perform service disruption.

The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation within the JNDI component in Java SE. A remote non-authenticated attacker can exploit this vulnerability to perform service disruption.
