Description
This security bulletin contains information about 15 secuirty vulnerabilities.
1) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-4203)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary condition when performing name constraint checking of the X.509 certificates. A remote attacker can pass a specially crafted X.509 certificate to the affected server, trigger an out-of-bounds read error and read contents of memory on the system.
2) Reliance on Reverse DNS Resolution for a Security-Critical Action (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-43548)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform DNS rebinding attacks.
The vulnerability exists due to improper validation of octal IP address within the Node.js rebinding protector for --inspec. A remote attacker can
resolve the invalid octal address via DNS. When combined with an active
--inspect session, such as when using VSCode, an attacker can perform DNS
rebinding and execute arbitrary code in client's browser.
3) Resource management error (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-23919)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to in some cases Node.js does does not clear the OpenSSL error stack after operations that may set it. A remote attacker can trigger false positive errors during subsequent cryptographic operations on the same thread and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
4) NULL pointer dereference (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-0217)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to a NULL pointer dereference error when validating the DSA public key. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
5) Information Exposure Through Timing Discrepancy (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-4304)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to obtain sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to a timing based side channel exists in the OpenSSL RSA Decryption implementation. A remote attacker can perform a Bleichenbacher style attack and decrypt data sent over the network.
To achieve a successful decryption an attacker would have to be able to send a very large number of trial messages for decryption. The vulnerability affects all RSA padding modes: PKCS#1 v1.5, RSA-OEAP and RSASVE.
6) Incorrect Regular Expression (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-24807)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient input validation when user-supplied input within the `Headers.set()` and `Headers.append()` methods. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application and perform regular expression denial of service (ReDos) attack.
7) Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-23918)
The vulnerability allows a remote user to bypass implemented security restrictions.
The vulnerability exists due to improperly imposed security restrictions within the process.mainModule.require() method. A remote user can access non authorized modules.
8) Release of invalid pointer or reference (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-0216)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to invalid pointer dereference in d2i_PKCS7 functions. A remote attacker can perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
9) HTTP response splitting (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-23936)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform HTTP splitting attacks.
The vulnerability exists due to software does not correctly process CRLF character sequences when handling HTTP "Host" header. A remote attacker can send specially crafted request containing CRLF sequence and make the application to send a split HTTP response.
Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may allow an attacker perform cache poisoning attack.
10) NULL pointer dereference (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-0401)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to a NULL pointer dereference error during PKCS7 data verification. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
11) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-0215)
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 BIO_new_NDEF function. A remote attacker can trigger a use-after-free error and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
12) Double Free (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-4450)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error within the PEM_read_bio_ex() function. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted PEM file to the application, trigger a double free error and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
13) Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-23920)
The vulnerability allows a remote user to gain access to sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to application insecurely loads ICU data through ICU_DATA environment variable with elevated privileges. A remote user can gain access to potentially sensitive information.
14) Type Confusion (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-0286)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to a type confusion error related to X.400 address processing inside an X.509 GeneralName. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application, trigger a type confusion error and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack or read memory contents.
In most cases, the attack requires the attacker to provide both the certificate chain and CRL, neither of which need to have a valid signature. If the attacker only controls one of these inputs, the other input must already contain an X.400 address as a CRL distribution point, which is uncommon. As such, this vulnerability is most likely to only affect applications which have implemented their own functionality for retrieving CRLs over a network.
15) Prototype pollution (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-24999)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted request and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
