Description
This security bulletin contains information about 20 secuirty vulnerabilities.
1) Resource management error (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-2048)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to improper management of internal resources within the application when handling invalid HTTP/2 requests. A remote attacker can send specially crafted requests to the server and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
2) Out-of-bounds write (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-36518)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error when processing untrusted input. A remote attacker can trigger out-of-bounds write and cause a denial of service condition on the target system.
3) Information disclosure (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-0536)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to excessive data output by the application. A remote attacker can gain unauthorized access to sensitive information on the system.
4) Incorrect Regular Expression (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-28500)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient input validation when processing regular expressions. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application and perform regular expression denial of service (ReDos) attack.
5) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-13956)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise the affected application.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input in Apache HttpClient. A remote attacker can pass request URIs to the library as java.net.URI object and force the application to pick the wrong target host for request execution.
6) Deserialization of Untrusted Data (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-25647)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service attack.
The vulnerability exists due to insecure input validation when processing serialized data passed to writeReplace() method. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application and perform a denial of service attack.
7) Prototype pollution (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-26132)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary JavaScript code.
The vulnerability exists due to prototype pollution flaw in the set() function in /dottie.js. A remote attacker can add or modify properties of Object.prototype using a __proto__ or constructor payload and perform prototype pollution, which can result in information disclosure or data manipulation.
8) Prototype pollution (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-7768)
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 in the loadPackageDefinition component. A remote attacker can trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
9) Code Injection (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-42550)
The vulnerability allows a remote user to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation. A remote user can send a specially crafted request to the application and execute arbitrary code on the target system by tricking the application to load a malicious configuration from a remote LDAP server.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
10) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-2047)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass implemented security restrictions.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input when parsing invalid URIs such as http://localhost;/path. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted input to the application and bypass implemented security restrictions, as the Jetty's HttpClient, and Jetty's ProxyServlet / AsyncProxyServlet / AsyncMiddleManServlet will wrongly interpret an authority of such URI as the one with a hostname.
11) Sensitive cookie in HTTPS session without Secure attribute (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-28708)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to Apache Tomcat does not set the "Secure" attribute for the JSESSIONID session cookie when using the RemoteIpFilter with requests received from a reverse proxy via HTTP that include the X-Forwarded-Proto header set to https. A remote attacker can force the application to transmit cookie via an insecure channel and intercept it.
12) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-23424)
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. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted input to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
13) Deserialization of Untrusted Data (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-46877)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to insecure input validation when processing serialized JsonNode values. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
Note, the vulnerability affects JDK serialization only.
14) Improper Certificate Validation (CVE-ID: CVE-2012-5783)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a man-in-the-middle attack to spoof SSL servers via an arbitrary valid certificate.
The vulnerability exists due to Apache Commons HttpClient does not verify that the server hostname matches a domain name in the subject's Common Name (CN) or subjectAltName field of the X.509 certificate. A remote attacker can perform a man-in-the-middle attack to spoof SSL servers via an arbitrary valid certificate.
15) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2012-6153)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to modify files on the system.
The vulnerability exists due to Apache Commons HttpClient does not properly verify that the server hostname matches a domain name in the subject's Common Name (CN) or subjectAltName field of the X.509 certificate. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted input to the application and modify files on the system.
16) 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.
17) Information disclosure (CVE-ID: CVE-2011-1498)
The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to gain access to sensitive information.
Apache HttpClient 4.x before 4.1.1 in Apache HttpComponents, when used with an authenticating proxy server, sends the Proxy-Authorization header to the origin server, which allows remote web servers to obtain sensitive information by logging this header.
18) Resource management error (CVE-ID: CVE-2015-5262)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to improper management of internal resources within the application. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
19) Path traversal (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-24785)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform directory traversal attacks.
The vulnerability exists due to input validation error when processing directory traversal sequences within the npm version of Moment.js. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted HTTP request and read arbitrary files on the system.
20) Man-in-the-Middle (MitM) attack (CVE-ID: CVE-2016-2402)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform MitM attack.
The vulnerability exists due to an unspecified error. A remote attacker can send a certificate chain with a certificate from a non-pinned trusted CA and the pinned certificate to bypass certificate pinning.
