Description
This security bulletin contains information about 3 vulnerabilities.
1) Memory leak (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-28366)
CWE-ID: CWE-401 - Missing release of memory after effective lifetime
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green
The vulnerability allows a remote user to perform DoS attack on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due memory leak in broker. A remote client can send multiple QoS 2 messages with the same message ID, but then never respond to the PUBREC commands, which results in memory leak and denial of service condition.
2) Memory leak (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-3592)
CWE-ID: CWE-401 - Missing release of memory after effective lifetime
CVSSv4: 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
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform DoS attack on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due memory leak when processing v5 CONNECT packets. A remote attacker can force the application to leak memory by sending messages with invalid property types.
3) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-0809)
CWE-ID: CWE-400 - Resource exhaustion
CVSSv4: 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
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 send malicious initial packets that are not CONNECT packets, trigger memory exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
