Description
This security bulletin contains information about 5 secuirty vulnerabilities.
1) State Issues (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-27535)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain unauthorized access to FTP server.
The vulnerability exists due to cURL will reuse a previously created FTP connection even when one or more options had been changed that could have made the effective user a very different one. A remote attacker can connect to the FTP server using credentials supplied by another user and gain access to otherwise restricted functionality.
The settings in questions are CURLOPT_FTP_ACCOUNT, CURLOPT_FTP_ALTERNATIVE_TO_USER, CURLOPT_FTP_SSL_CCC and CURLOPT_USE_SSL level.
2) Integer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-25147)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to integer overflow within the apr_base64() function. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application, trigger an integer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
3) Resource management error (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-2879)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to absent limits on the maximum size of file headers within the Reader.Read method in archive/tar. A remote attacker can pass a specially crafted file to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
4) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-21698)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input within method label cardinality. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted input to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
5) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-35252)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to the way curl handles cookies with control codes (byte values below 32). When cookies that contain such control codes are later sent back to an
HTTP(S) server, it might make the server return a 400 response, effectively allowing a "sister site" to deny service to siblings.
