Description
This security bulletin contains information about 18 secuirty vulnerabilities.
1) Improper input validation (CVE-ID: CVE-2017-8923)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform denial of service (DoS) attack.The vulnerability exists due to insufficient input validation in zend_string_extend() function in Zend/zend_string.h when leveraging a script's use of ".=" with a long. The application does not prevent changes to string objects that can result in a negative length. A remote attacker can pass an overly long string to script, which uses ".=" operand on the supplied data and trigger application crash.
2) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-7068)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise vulnerable system.
The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error in the "phar_parse_zipfile" function. A remote attacker can can cause a denial of service (DoS) condition on the target system.
3) Cryptographic issues (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-7069)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to the openssl_encrypt() function generates a wrong ciphertext and a wrong tag for AES-CCM for a 12 bytes IV. As a result, a 7-byte nonce is used instead of 12 bytes. A remote attacker can abuse such behavior and decrypt data.
4) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-7070)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a spoofing attack.
The vulnerability exists in the way PHP parser handles cookies with percent character (e.g. '%'). A remote attacker can send a crafted HTTP request with a `__%48ost-` or `__%53ecure-` cookie that will be processed before other cookies sent in the same request. As a result, an attacker can set malicious `__Host-` cookie on a subdomain and bypass origin restrictions, imposed by browsers.
Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may allow an attacker to perform a spoofing attack.
5) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-7071)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass implemented security restrictions.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of URL performed via the "FILTER_VALIDATE_URL" setting. A remote attacker can use the "@" characters in the URL to bypass implemented filter and force the application to accept arbitrary URL instead of the defined by the option.
Example:
http://evel.website@trusted.website
6) NULL pointer dereference (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-21702)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to a NULL pointer dereference error within the SoapClient in PHP. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
7) Out-of-bounds write (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-21703)
The vulnerability allows a local user to escalate privileges on the system.
The vulnerability exists in the way PHP handles shared memory access, when using PHP FPM SAPI with main FPM daemon process running as root and child worker processes running as lower-privileged users. A child process can access shared memory with the main process and write to it. As a result, it is possible to cause the root process to conduct invalid memory reads and writes with root privileges. A local user can trigger an out-of-bounds write error and execute arbitrary code on the system with root privileges.
8) Stack-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-21704)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
Multiple boundary errors exists within firebird_info_cb(), firebird_handle_doer(), firebird_stmt_execute(), and firebird_fetch_blob() function. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted input to the application, trigger a stack-based buffer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
9) Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-21705)
The disclosed vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform SSRF attacks.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted HTTP request, bypass the FILTER_VALIDATE_URL and trick the application to initiate requests to arbitrary systems.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow a remote attacker gain access to sensitive data, located in the local network or send malicious requests to other servers from the vulnerable system.
10) Absolute Path Traversal (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-21706)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker overwrite files on the system.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient filtration of file names in the php_zip_make_relative_path() function on Windows systems. A remote attacker can construct a specially crafted ZIP archive, which once extracted by the ZipArchive::extractTo() function, can overwrite files outside of the destination directory.
Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may allow an attacker to overwrite arbitrary files on the system with privileges of the web server, but requires that the web application is running on Windows.
11) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-21707)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to inject arbitrary XML code.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input within the simplexml_load_file() PHP function when processing NULL byte character (e.g. %00). A remote attacker can pass specially crafted URL to the application and bypass implemented security restrictions.
12) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-21708)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error within the "php_filter_float()" function. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted input to the application that uses the affected PHP function, trigger a use-after-free error and crash the php-fpm process.
13) Use of uninitialized resource (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-31625)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the system.
The vulnerability exists due to usage of uninitialized array in the pg_query_params() function. A remote attacker with ability to control query parameters can trigger memory corruption and execute arbitrary code on the system.
14) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-31626)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error when processing password in mysqlnd/pdo in mysqlnd_wireprotocol.c. A remote attacker with ability to control password that is passed via PDO to MySQL server can trigger memory corruption and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
15) Infinite loop (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-31628)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to infinite loop within the phar uncompressor code when processing "quines" gzip files. A remote attacker can pass a specially crafted archive to the application, consume all available system resources and cause denial of service conditions.
16) Security features bypass (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-31629)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass implemented security restrictions.
The vulnerability exists due to the way PHP handles HTTP variable names. A remote attacker can set a standard insecure cookie in the victim's browser which is treated as a `__Host-` or `__Secure-` cookie by PHP applications.
17) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-31630)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary condition within the imageloadfont() function. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the web application, trigger an out-of-bounds read error and read contents of memory on the system.
18) Integer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-37454)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to integer overflow within the Keccak XKCP SHA-3 reference implementation. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application, trigger an integer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system or eliminate expected cryptographic properties.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
