CVE-ID: CVE-2017-7501

CWE-ID: CWE-59 - Improper Link Resolution Before File Access ('Link Following')

Exploit availability: No

The vulnerability allows a local authenticated user to execute arbitrary code.

It was found that versions of rpm before 4.13.0.2 use temporary files with predictable names when installing an RPM. An attacker with ability to write in a directory where files will be installed could create symbolic links to an arbitrary location and modify content, and possibly permissions to arbitrary files, which could be used for denial of service or possibly privilege escalation.

23) Link following

EUVDB-ID: #VU31245

Risk: Low

CVSSv3.1: 6.8 [CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2017-7500

CWE-ID: CWE-59 - Improper Link Resolution Before File Access ('Link Following')

Exploit availability: No

The vulnerability allows a local authenticated user to execute arbitrary code.

It was found that rpm did not properly handle RPM installations when a destination path was a symbolic link to a directory, possibly changing ownership and permissions of an arbitrary directory, and RPM files being placed in an arbitrary destination. An attacker, with write access to a directory in which a subdirectory will be installed, could redirect that directory to an arbitrary location and gain root privilege.

24) Side-channel attack

EUVDB-ID: #VU15723

Risk: Low

CVSSv3.1: 4.2 [CVSS:3.1/AV:P/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N/E:P/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2018-5407

CWE-ID: CWE-208 - Information Exposure Through Timing Discrepancy

Exploit availability: Yes

The vulnerability allows a physical attacker to obtain potentially sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to due to execution of engine sharing on SMT (e.g.Hyper-Threading) architectures when improper handling of information by the processor. A physical attacker can construct a timing side channel to hijack information from processes that are running in the same core.

Note: the vulnerability has been dubbed as PortSmash microarchitecture bug.

Q & A

Can this vulnerability be exploited remotely?

No. The attacker should have physical access to the system in order to successfully exploit this vulnerability.

Is there known malware, which exploits this vulnerability?

No. We are not aware of malware exploiting this vulnerability. However, proof of concept for this vulnerability is available.

25) Information disclosure

CVSSv3.1: 2.9 [CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2018-0737

CWE-ID: CWE-200 - Information exposure

Exploit availability: No

The vulnerability allows a local attacker to obtain potentially sensitive information on the target system.

The weakness exists in the RSA key generation algorithm's BN_mod_inverse() and BN_mod_exp_mont() functions due to a cache timing side channel attack. A local attacker can recover the private key.

CVSSv3.1: 4.8 [CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2018-0734

CWE-ID: CWE-200 - Information exposure

Exploit availability: No

The vulnerability allows a local attacker to obtain potentially sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to unspecified flaw in Digital Signature Algorithm (DSA). A local attacker can conduct a timing side-channel attack and recover the private key, which could be used to conduct further attacks.

CVSSv3.1: 6.5 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2016-8610

CWE-ID: CWE-388 - Error Handling

Exploit availability: No

The vulnerability allows a remote unauthenticated user to exhaust memory on the target system.
The weakness is due to improper handling of certain packets by the ssl3_read_bytes() function in 'ssl/s3_pkt.c.
By sending a flood of SSL3_AL_WARNING alerts during the SSL handshake, a remote attacker can consume excessive CPU resources that may lead to OpenSSL library being unavailable.
Successful exploitation of the vulnerability results in denial of service on the vulnerable system.
