Description

This security bulletin contains information about 5 vulnerabilities.


1) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-25563)

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 a boundary condition when decoding NTLM fields. A remote attacker can send specially crafted NTLM request to the application, trigger an out-of-bounds read error and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


2) Out-of-bounds write (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-25564)

CWE-ID: CWE-787 - Out-of-bounds write

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 a boundary in the ntlm_str_convert() function error when decoding UTF16 strings. A remote attacker can send specially crafted NTLM request to the application, trigger an out-of-bounds write error and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


3) Release of invalid pointer or reference (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-25565)

CWE-ID: CWE-763 - Release of invalid pointer or reference

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 a boundary condition when decoding target information. A remote attacker can send specially crafted NTLM request to the application, trigger an out-of-bounds read error and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

4) Memory leak (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-25566)

CWE-ID: CWE-401 - Missing release of memory after effective lifetime

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 DoS attack on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due memory leak when parsing usernames. A remote attacker can force the application to leak memory and perform denial of service attack.


5) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-25567)

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
