Security Bulletin
This security bulletin contains information about 4 vulnerabilities.
EUVDB-ID: #VU76238
Risk: Medium
CVSSv3.1:
CVE-ID: CVE-2023-28322
CWE-ID:
CWE-440 - Expected Behavior Violation
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to a logic error when sending HTTP POST and PUT requests using the same handle. The libcurl can erroneously use the read callback (CURLOPT_READFUNCTION) to ask for data to send, even when the CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS option has been set, if the same handle previously was used to issue a PUT request which used that callback. As a result, the application can misbehave and either send off the wrong data or use memory after free or similar in the second transfer.

CVSSv3.1:
CVE-ID: CVE-2023-28321
CWE-ID:
CWE-295 - Improper Certificate Validation
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform MitM attack.
The vulnerability exists due to improper certificate validation when matching wildcards in TLS certificates for IDN names. A remote attacker crate a specially crafted certificate that will be considered trusted by the library.
Successful exploitation of the vulnerability requires that curl is built to use OpenSSL, Schannel or Gskit.

CVE-ID: CVE-2023-28320
CWE-ID:
CWE-662 - Improper Synchronization
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to improper synchronization when resolving host names using the alarm() and siglongjmp() function. A remote attacker can force the application to crash by influencing contents of the global buffer.

CVSSv3.1:
CVE-ID: CVE-2023-28319
CWE-ID:
CWE-416 - Use After Free
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error when checking the SSH sha256 fingerprint. A remote attacker can use the application to connect to a malicious SSH server, trigger a use-after-free error and gain access to potentially sensitive information.
Successful exploitation of the vulnerability requires usage of the the CURLOPT_SSH_HOST_PUBLIC_KEY_SHA256 option, and also CURLOPT_VERBOSE or CURLOPT_ERRORBUFFER options have to be set.
