Description
This security bulletin contains information about 8 secuirty vulnerabilities.
1) Improper Authorization (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-26691)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise the affected system.
The vulnerability exists due to an error in implementation of "Local" authorization mechanism. A remote attacker can authenticate as to CUPS as root/admin without the 32-byte secret key and execute arbitrary code on the system.
2) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-1271)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise the affected system.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation when processing filenames with two or more newlines. A remote attacker can force zgrep or xzgrep to write arbitrary files on the system.
Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may allow an attacker to compromise the affected system.
3) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-1586)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service attack.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary condition in the PCRE2 library in the compile_xclass_matchingpath() function of the pcre2_jit_compile.c file. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application, trigger out-of-bounds read error, gain access to sensitive information or perform a denial of service attack.
4) Use of Uninitialized Variable (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-31741)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error when processing HTML content. A remote attacker can create a specially crafted webpage, trick the victim into opening it, trigger memory corruption and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
5) OS Command Injection (CVE-ID: CVE-2015-20107)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary shell commands on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation in the mailcap module, which does not escape characters into commands discovered in the system mailcap file. A remote unauthenticated attacker can pass specially crafted data to the applications that call mailcap.findmatch with untrusted input and execute arbitrary OS commands on the target system.
6) OS Command Injection (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-2068)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary shell commands on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation in the c_rehash script distributed by some operating systems. A remote attacker with ability to pass data to c_rehash script can and execute arbitrary OS commands with the privileges of the script.
The vulnerability exists due to incomplete fix for #VU62765 (CVE-2022-1292).
7) OS Command Injection (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-1292)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary shell commands on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation in the c_rehash script distributed by some operating systems. A remote attacker with ability to pass data to c_rehash script can and execute arbitrary OS commands with the privileges of the script.
8) Path traversal (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-1664)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform directory traversal attacks.
The vulnerability exists due to input validation error in Dpkg::Source::Archive in dpkg when extracting untrusted source packages in the v2 and v3
source package formats that include a debian.tar. A remote attacker can create a specially crafted package with symbolic links that point to files outside the source tree root directory and overwrite arbitrary files on the system.
