Description

This security bulletin contains information about 4 vulnerabilities.


1) Out-of-bounds write (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-1785)

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

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:A/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

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error when processing untrusted input in vim_regsub_both() function. A remote attacker can create a specially crafted file, trick the victim into opening it using the affected software, trigger out-of-bounds write and execute arbitrary code on the target system.


2) Out-of-bounds write (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-1897)

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

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


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

The vulnerability exists due to Illegal memory access and leads to an out-of-bounds write vulnerability in the vim_regsub_both() function. A local attacker can trick the victim into opening a specially crafted file, leading to a system crash or code execution.


3) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-1927)

CWE-ID: CWE-125 - Out-of-bounds read

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


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

The vulnerability exists due to Illegal memory access and leads to a buffer over-read vulnerability in the utf_ptr2char() function. A local attacker can trick the victim into opening a specially crafted file, trigger out-of-bounds read error and execute arbitrary code on the system.


4) Authentication Bypass by Spoofing (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-22476)

CWE-ID: CWE-290 - Authentication Bypass by Spoofing

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


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute identity spoofing attacks.

The vulnerability exists due to an unspecified error in IBM WebSphere Application Server Liberty. A remote authenticated user can send a specially crafted request to perform identity spoofing attacks.
