6) Resource exhaustion

EUVDB-ID: #VU77612

Risk: Medium

CVSSv4.0: 6.6 [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]

CVE-ID: CVE-2023-2828

CWE-ID: CWE-400 - Resource exhaustion

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to application does not properly control consumption of internal resources. A remote attacker can cause the amount of memory used by a named resolver to go well beyond the configured max-cache-size limit. The effectiveness of the attack depends on a number of factors (e.g. query load, query patterns), but since the default value of the max-cache-size statement is 90%, in the worst case the attacker can exhaust all available memory on the host running named, leading to a denial-of-service condition.

Mitigation

Install updates from vendor's website.

7) Improper Privilege Management

EUVDB-ID: #VU74146

Risk: Low

CVSSv4.0: 5.9 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear]

CVE-ID: CVE-2023-26604

CWE-ID: CWE-269 - Improper Privilege Management

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a local user to escalate privileges on the system.

The vulnerability exists due to improper privilege management for some Sudo configurations, e.g., plausible sudoers files in which the "systemctl status" command may be executed. Specifically, systemd does not set LESSSECURE to 1, and thus other programs may be launched from the less program. This presents a substantial security risk when running systemctl from Sudo, because less executes as root when the terminal size is too small to show the complete systemctl output.

Mitigation

Install updates from vendor's website.

8) Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls

EUVDB-ID: #VU78490

Risk: Low

CVSSv4.0: 0.6 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:P/PR:L/UI:A/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear]

CVE-ID: CVE-2023-34969

CWE-ID: CWE-264 - Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a local user to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to an error in the dbus-daemon when sending a reply message from the "bus driver". If a local privileged user (e.g. root) is using the org.freedesktop.DBus.Monitoring interface to monitor message bus traffic, another unprivileged user with the ability to connect to the same dbus-daemon can force the service to send an unreplyable message and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

Mitigation

Install updates from vendor's website.

9) Untrusted search path

EUVDB-ID: #VU78454

Risk: Medium

CVSSv4.0: 6.6 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:A/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:P/U:Green]

CVE-ID: CVE-2023-38408

CWE-ID: CWE-426 - Untrusted Search Path

Exploit availability: Yes

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise the affected system.

The vulnerability exists due to usage of an insecure search path within the PKCS#11 feature in ssh-agent. A remote attacker can trick the victim into connecting to a malicious SSH server and execute arbitrary code on the system, if an agent is forwarded to an attacker-controlled system.

Note, this vulnerability exists due to incomplete fix for #VU2015 (CVE-2016-10009).

Mitigation

Install updates from vendor's website.
