Description

This security bulletin contains information about 4 secuirty vulnerabilities.


1) Use of Cryptographically Weak Pseudo-Random Number Generator (PRNG) (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-3538)

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

The vulnerability exists in github.com/satori/go.uuid due to insecure randomness in the g.rand.Read() function. A remote attacker can trigger trigger the vulnerability to execute arbitrary code on the target system.


2) Incorrect Regular Expression (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-33502)

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

The vulnerability exists due to exponential performance for data. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application and perform a regular expression denial of service (ReDos) attack.


3) Security features bypass (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-3450)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass implemented security restrictions.

The vulnerability exists due to an error in implementation of the X509_V_FLAG_X509_STRICT flag allows an attacker to overwrite a valid CA certificate using any non-CA certificate in the chain. As a result, a remote attacker can perform MitM attack.


4) NULL pointer dereference (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-3449)

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

The vulnerability exists due to a NULL pointer dereference error when processing TLSv1.2 renegotiations. A remote attacker can send a maliciously crafted renegotiation ClientHello message, which omits the signature_algorithms extension but includes a signature_algorithms_cert extension, trigger a NULL pointer dereference error and crash the server.
