Security Bulletin

This security bulletin contains information about 4 vulnerabilities.

1) Out-of-bounds write

EUVDB-ID: #VU52333

Risk: High

CVSSv3.1: 7.7 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2021-23994

CWE-ID: CWE-787 - Out-of-bounds write

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise vulnerable system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error when processing untrusted input within the WebGL framebuffer. A remote attacker can create a specially crafted web page, trick the victim into opening it using the affected software, trigger out-of-bounds write and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

Mitigation

Install update from vendor's website.

Q & A

Can this vulnerability be exploited remotely?

Yes. This vulnerability can be exploited by a remote non-authenticated attacker via the Internet.

Is there known malware, which exploits this vulnerability?

No. We are not aware of malware exploiting this vulnerability.

2) Insecure Inherited Permissions

EUVDB-ID: #VU52337

Risk: Medium

CVSSv3.1: 6.2 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:L/A:N/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2021-23998

CWE-ID: CWE-277 - Insecure inherited permissions

Exploit availability: No

Description

the vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform spoofing attack.

The vulnerability exists due to the way HTTP pages inherit a secure lock icon, when navigating from an HTTP page. A remote attacker can create a specially crafted webpage that through a series of complicated navigation will force the browser to display a secure lock icon on an unencrypted HTTP page.

Mitigation

Install update from vendor's website.
