1) Type Confusion

EUVDB-ID: #VU68844

Risk: Medium

CVSSv4.0: 2.7 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:L/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green]

CVE-ID: CVE-2022-3676

CWE-ID: CWE-843 - Type confusion

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to a type confusion error. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application, trigger a type confusion error and access or modify memory.

Mitigation

Install update from vendor's website.

Vulnerable software versions

IBM VIOS: 3.1.0 - 3.1.3.14

https://aix.software.ibm.com/aix/efixes/security/java_dec2022_advisory.asc


Q & A

Can this vulnerability be exploited remotely?

Yes. This vulnerability can be exploited by a remote non-authenticated attacker via the Internet.

Is there known malware, which exploits this vulnerability?

No. We are not aware of malware exploiting this vulnerability.

2) Missing initialization of resource

EUVDB-ID: #VU60084

Risk: Medium

CVSSv4.0: 2.7 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:L/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green]

CVE-ID: CVE-2021-28167

CWE-ID: CWE-909 - Missing initialization of resource

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to usage of the jdk.internal.reflect.ConstantPool API causes the JVM in some cases to pre-resolve certain constant pool entries. This allows a user to call static methods or access static members without running the class initialization method. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted request to the application and observe uninitialized values.

Mitigation

Install update from vendor's website.
