Description
This security bulletin contains information about 19 secuirty vulnerabilities.
1) Open redirect (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-41080)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to redirect victims to arbitrary URL.
The vulnerability exists due to improper sanitization of user-supplied data, if the ROOT (default) web application is configured to use FORM authentication. A remote attacker can create a link that leads to a trusted website, however, when clicked, redirects the victim to arbitrary domain.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow a remote attacker to perform a phishing attack and steal potentially sensitive information.
2) Insufficient UI Warning of Dangerous Operations (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-4581)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass implemented security restrictions.
The vulnerability exists due to a missing warning when downloading Excel .xll add-in files. A remote attacker can trick the victim to visit a specially crafted website and force the browser to download potentially dangerous files without any warning.
3) Integer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-4576)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to integer overflow in RecordedSourceSurfaceCreation. A remote attacker can trick the victim to visit a specially crafted website, trigger an integer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
Note, the vulnerability affects Firefox installations on Windows only.
4) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-4575)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise vulnerable system.
The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error in IPC FilePickerShownCallback. A remote attacker can trick the victim to open a specially crafted website, trigger memory corruption and execute arbitrary code on the system.
Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may allow an attacker to compromise vulnerable system.
5) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-4574)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise vulnerable system.
The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error in IPC ColorPickerShownCallback. A remote attacker can trick the victim to open a specially crafted website, trigger memory corruption and execute arbitrary code on the system.
Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may allow an attacker to compromise vulnerable system.
6) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-4573)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise vulnerable system.
The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error in IPC CanvasTranslator. A remote attacker can trick the victim to open a specially crafted website, trigger memory corruption and execute arbitrary code on the system.
Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may allow an attacker to compromise vulnerable system.
7) XML External Entity injection (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-3823)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied XML input. A remote attacker can pass a specially crafted XML code to the affected application and view contents of arbitrary files on the system or initiate requests to external systems.
Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may allow an attacker to view contents of arbitrary file on the server or perform network scanning of internal and external infrastructure.
8) Use of insufficiently random values (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-3247)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass authentication.
The vulnerability exists due to a missing error check and insufficient random bytes in HTTP Digest authentication for SOAP. A remote attacker can perform a brute-force attack and bypass authentication process.
9) Improper Validation of Array Index (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-40477)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise the affected system.
The vulnerability exists due to improper validation of array index when processing recovery volumes. A remote attacker can trick the victim to open a specially crafted archive and execute arbitrary code on the system.
10) Off-by-one (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-4504)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to an off-by-one error when parsing Postscript objects within the scan_ps() function in cups/raster-interpret.c. A remote attacker can trigger pass a specially crafted PPD file to the affected application, trigger a heap-based buffer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
11) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-3824)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error within the phar_dir_read() function. A remote attacker can force the application to open a specially crafted .phar archive, trigger memory corruption and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
12) Information disclosure (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-41081)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to excessive data output by the application when a configuration included "JkOptions +ForwardDirectories" but the configuration did not provide explicit mounts for all possible proxied requests. A remote attacker can view status worker and possibly bypass security constraints configured in httpd.
13) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-24329)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass implemented filters.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of URLs that start with blank characters within urllib.parse component of Python. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted URL to bypass existing filters.
14) Integer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-41409)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to integer overflow in pcre2test. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application, trigger an integer overflow and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
15) Use of insufficiently random values (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-31008)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to sensitive information.
The vulnerability exist due to insufficient randomization in Shovel and Federation plugins when obfuscating URI. The encryption key used to encrypt the URI was seeded with a predictable secret. A remote attacker can gain access to sensitive information.
16) Improper Certificate Validation (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-31486)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform MitM attack.
The vulnerability exists due to missing verification of the TLS certificate. A remote attacker can perform MitM attack and trick the application into downloading a malicious file.17) Improper Certificate Validation (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-31484)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform MitM attack.
The vulnerability exists due to missing verification of the TLS certificate when downloading distributions. A remote attacker can perform MitM attack and trick the application into downloading a malicious file.
18) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-4584)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error when processing HTML content. A remote attacker can create a specially crafted website, trick the victim into opening it, trigger memory corruption and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
19) OS Command Injection (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-24805)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary shell commands on the target system.
