Description
This security bulletin contains information about 5 vulnerabilities.
1) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-24607)
CWE-ID: CWE-20 - Improper input validation
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green
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 in the Qt SQL ODBC driver plugin. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted input to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
2) Cleartext transmission of sensitive information (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-32762)
CWE-ID: CWE-319 - Cleartext Transmission of Sensitive Information
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:L/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to Qt Network incorrectly parses the strict-transport-security (HSTS) header, allowing unencrypted connections to be established, even when explicitly prohibited by the server. A remote attacker with ability to intercept network traffic can gain access to sensitive data.
3) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-33285)
CWE-ID: CWE-125 - Out-of-bounds read
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to buffer over-read via a crafted reply from a DNS server within the QDnsLookup() function in src/network/kernel/qdnslookup_unix.cpp. A remote attacker can perform a denial of service attack.
4) Improper Certificate Validation (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-34410)
CWE-ID: CWE-295 - Improper Certificate Validation
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:L/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform MitM attack.
The vulnerability exists due to improper validation of TLS certificate chain, where application does not always consider whether the root of a chain is a configured CA certificate. A remote attacker can perform MitM attack.
5) Infinite loop (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-38197)
CWE-ID: CWE-835 - Loop with Unreachable Exit Condition ('Infinite Loop')
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to infinite loop when handling recursive expansions. A remote attacker can consume all available system resources and cause denial of service conditions.
