Description

This security bulletin contains information about 6 vulnerabilities.


1) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-4181)

CWE-ID: CWE-20 - Improper input validation

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 insufficient validation of user-supplied input in the Sysdig Event dissector. A remote attacker can send specially crafted traffic over the network and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


2) Infinite loop (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-4182)

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

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:A/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 infinite loop in RFC 7468 file parser. A remote attacker can trick the victim to open a specially crafted packet trace file and consume excessive CPU resources.


3) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-4183)

CWE-ID: CWE-20 - Improper input validation

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:A/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 insufficient validation of user-supplied input in pcapng file parser. A remote attacker can trick the victim to open a malformed packet trace file and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


4) Infinite loop (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-4184)

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 perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to infinite loop in BitTorrent DHT dissector. A remote attacker can send specially crafted traffic over the network, consume all available system resources and cause denial of service conditions.


5) Infinite loop (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-4185)

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