Description
This security bulletin contains information about 10 secuirty vulnerabilities.
1) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-43929)
The vulnerability allows a local user to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to application does not properly control consumption of internal resources when processing input passed to the "Load" command. A local user can trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
2) Improper Privilege Management (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-43927)
The vulnerability allows a remote user to gain access to sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to improper privilege management when a specially crafted table access is used.. A remote user can gain access to sensitive information.
3) Improper Certificate Validation (CVE-ID: CVE-2014-3577)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to improper certificate validation. A remote attacker can perform a man-in-the-middle (MitM) attack and spoof SSL servers via a "CN=" string in a field in the distinguished name (DN) of a certificate.
4) Inclusion of Sensitive Information in Log Files (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-43930)
The vulnerability allows a local user to gain access to sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to software stores sensitive information into log files. A local user can read the log files and gain access to sensitive data.
5) Improper input validation (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-34169)
The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to compromise the affected system.
The vulnerability exists due to an integer truncation issue when processing malicious XSLT stylesheets. A remote non-authenticated attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application to corrupt Java class files generated by the internal XSLTC compiler and execute arbitrary Java bytecode.
6) Code Injection (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-42889)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to an insecure variable interpolation when processing untrusted input. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted input and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
Note, the vulnerability was dubbed Text4shell.
7) 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.
8) 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.
9) 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.
10) Deserialization of Untrusted Data (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-1471)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to insecure input validation when processing serialized data within the SnakeYaml's Constructor() class. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted yaml content to the application and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
