2) Race condition

EUVDB-ID: #VU31891

Risk: Medium

CVSSv3.1: 5.2 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2020-15586

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

Exploit availability: No

Description

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

The vulnerability exists due to a race condition in some net/http servers, as demonstrated by the httputil.ReverseProxy Handler. A remote attacker can exploit the race and cause a denial of service condition on the target system.

Mitigation

Install updates from vendor's website.

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

CVE-ID: CVE-2021-3114

CWE-ID: CWE-682 - Incorrect Calculation

Exploit availability: No

Description

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

The vulnerability exists due to incorrect calculation performed by the application in "crypto/elliptic/p224.go". A remote attacker can generate incorrect outputs, related to an underflow of the lowest limb during the final complete reduction in the P-224 field.

Mitigation

Install updates from vendor's website.
