Description
This security bulletin contains information about 4 vulnerabilities.
1) Use of Password Hash Instead of Password for Authentication (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-46146)
CWE-ID: CWE-836 - Use of Password Hash Instead of Password for Authentication
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:L/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass authentication process.
The vulnerability exists due to incorrect implementation of basic authentication. A remote attacker with knowledge of the password hash can authenticate against Prometheus without actual knowledge of the password.
2) Cross-site scripting (CVE-ID: CVE-2016-3709)
CWE-ID: CWE-79 - Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting')
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:A/VC:N/VI:N/VA:N/SC:L/SI:L/SA:N/E:U/U:Green
The disclosed vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient sanitization of user-supplied data. A remote attacker can trick the victim to follow a specially crafted link and execute arbitrary HTML and script code in user's browser in context of vulnerable website.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow a remote attacker to steal potentially sensitive information, change appearance of the web page, perform phishing and drive-by-download attacks.
3) Incorrect authorization (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-3899)
CWE-ID: CWE-863 - Incorrect Authorization
CVSSv4: 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
The vulnerability allows a local user to escalate privileges on the system.
The vulnerability exists due to incorrect authorization caused by D-Bus interface com.redhat.RHSM1 that exposes a significant number of methods to all users. A local user can abuse the com.redhat.RHSM1.Config.SetAll() method to change the state of the registration and escalate privileges on the system.
4) Improper Authentication (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-32360)
CWE-ID: CWE-287 - Improper Authentication
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:N/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 missing authentication in CUPS. A remote attacker can access recently printed documents.
