Security Bulletin

This security bulletin contains information about 8 vulnerabilities.

1) Resource exhaustion

EUVDB-ID: #VU19282

Risk: Medium

CVSSv3.1: 5.9 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H/E:P/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2019-1010266

CWE-ID: CWE-400 - Resource exhaustion

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to the software does not properly parse user-supplied input in the Date Handler component. A remote authenticated attacker can send long strings that submit malicious input, which the library attempts to match using a regular expression and consume excessive amounts of CPU resources and cause a DoS condition.

Mitigation

Install update from vendor's website.

5) Prototype polution

EUVDB-ID: #VU41989

Risk: Medium

CVSSv3.1: 5.7 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:N/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2020-8203

CWE-ID: CWE-94 - Improper Control of Generation of Code ('Code Injection')

Exploit availability: No

Description

The disclosed vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient sanitization of user-supplied data when using _.zipObjectDeep in lodash. A remote attacker can inject and execute arbitrary script code.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow a remote attacker to steal potentially sensitive information, change appearance of the web page, perform phishing and drive-by-download attacks.

Mitigation
