Description

This security bulletin contains information about 7 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) Incorrect default permissions (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-2976)

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

The vulnerability exists due to incorrect default permissions in com.google.common.io.FileBackedOutputStream. A local user with access to the system can view contents of files and directories or modify them.


3) Stack-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-45688)

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

The vulnerability exists in the XML.toJSONObject component. A remote unauthenticated attacker can send a specially crafted JSON or XML data, trigger stack-based buffer overflow and perform a denial of service attack.


4) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-34396)

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 when processing multipart requests with non-file normal form fields. A remote attacker can trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


5) Untrusted search path (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-38408)

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).


6) Deserialization of Untrusted Data (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-36944)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to insecure input validation when processing serialized data during Java object deserialization. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.


7) Out-of-bounds write (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-42920)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise vulnerable system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error when processing untrusted input within the API. A remote attacker can create a specially crafted request to the affected application, trigger an out-of-bounds write and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
