CVE-ID: CVE-2022-23772
CWE-ID:
CWE-400 - Resource exhaustion
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to application does not properly control consumption of internal resources within the Rat.SetString(0 function in math/big. A remote attacker can trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

2) Incorrect authorization
EUVDB-ID: #VU62037
Risk: Low
CVSSv3.1: 3.9 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N/E:P/RL:O/RC:C]
CVE-ID: CVE-2022-23773
CWE-ID:
CWE-863 - Incorrect Authorization
Exploit availability: Yes
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass implemented security restrictions.
The vulnerability exists within cmd/go, which can misinterpret branch names that falsely appear to be version tags. This can lead to a situation where an attacker can bypass implemented security restrictions and perform restricted actions, e.g. create tags when access was granted to create branches only.

3) Unchecked Return Value
EUVDB-ID: #VU62036
Risk: Medium
CVSSv3.1: 5.7 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:L/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]
CVE-ID: CVE-2022-23806
CWE-ID:
CWE-252 - Unchecked Return Value
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to unchecked return value within the Curve.IsOnCurve() function in crypto/elliptic. A remote attacker can force the application to incorrectly return true in situations with a big.Int value that is not a valid field element. As a result, an attacker can modify application flow, which can lead to unauthorized data modification or denial of service.
