Description

This security bulletin contains information about 7 secuirty vulnerabilities.


1) Improper input validation (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-21830)

The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to manipulate data.

The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation within the Serialization component in Oracle GraalVM Enterprise Edition. A remote non-authenticated attacker can exploit this vulnerability to manipulate data.


2) Improper input validation (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-21843)

The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to manipulate data.

The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation within the Sound component in Oracle GraalVM Enterprise Edition. A remote non-authenticated attacker can exploit this vulnerability to manipulate data.


3) Improper input validation (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-21426)

The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to perform service disruption.

The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation within the JAXP component in Oracle GraalVM Enterprise Edition. A remote non-authenticated attacker can exploit this vulnerability to perform service disruption.


4) 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.


5) 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.


6) 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.



7) 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.
