Security Bulletin
This security bulletin contains information about 4 vulnerabilities.
1) Resource management error
EUVDB-ID: #VU60181
Risk: Medium
CVSSv3.1: 5.9 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H/E:P/RL:O/RC:C]
CVE-ID: CVE-2021-22569
CWE-ID:
CWE-399 - Resource Management Errors
Exploit availability: Yes
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to improper management of internal resources within the application. protobuf-java allowes the interleaving of
com.google.protobuf.UnknownFieldSet fields in such a way that would be
processed out of order. A small malicious payload can occupy the parser
for several minutes by creating large numbers of short-lived objects
that cause frequent, repeated pauses. A remote attacker can trick the victim into passing specially crafted data to the application and perform a denial of service attack.
Install update from vendor's website.
