Description

This security bulletin contains information about 8 vulnerabilities.


1) Security features bypass (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-26414)

CWE-ID: CWE-254 - Security Features

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:L/UI:A/VC:N/VI:H/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass authentication process.

The vulnerability exists due to security feature bypass issue in Windows DCOM Server. A remote authenticated attacker can gain elevated privileges on the target system.


2) Use of a broken or risky cryptographic algorithm (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-14145)

CWE-ID: CWE-327 - Use of a Broken or Risky Cryptographic Algorithm

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:A/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:L/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform MitM attack.

The vulnerability exists in openssh client during algorithm negotiation due to observable discrepancy. A remote attacker can perform a Man-in-the-Middle (MitM) attack.


3) Out-of-bounds write (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-23943)

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

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Amber


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise vulnerable system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error when processing untrusted input in mod_sed. A remote attacker can trigger out-of-bounds write and execute arbitrary code on the target system.


4) Integer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-22721)

CWE-ID: CWE-190 - Integer overflow

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Amber


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to integer overflow within the ap_escape_html2() function when parsing LimitXMLRequestBody. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted request to the web server, trigger an integer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.


5) Inconsistent interpretation of HTTP requests (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-22720)

CWE-ID: CWE-444 - Inconsistent Interpretation of HTTP Requests ('HTTP Request Smuggling')

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:A/VC:L/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to preform HTTP request smuggling attacks.

The vulnerability exists due to improper validation of HTTP requests. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted HTTP request to the server and smuggle arbitrary HTTP headers.

Successful exploitation of vulnerability may allow an attacker to poison HTTP cache and perform phishing attacks.


6) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-22719)

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 use of uninitialized value in r:parsebody. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted input to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


7) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-44790)

CWE-ID: CWE-119 - Memory corruption

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:P/U:Red


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error when parsing multipart content in mod_lua. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted HTTP request to the affected web server, trigger buffer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.


8) Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-44224)

CWE-ID: CWE-918 - Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF)

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:L/VI:L/VA:N/SC:L/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green


The disclosed vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform SSRF attacks.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input in forward proxy configurations. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted HTTP request and trick the web server to initiate requests to arbitrary systems or cause NULL pointer dereference error and crash the web server.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow a remote attacker gain access to sensitive data, located in the local network or send malicious requests to other servers from the vulnerable system.

SSRF if possible for configuration that mix forward and reverse proxy.
