Description

This security bulletin contains information about 6 secuirty vulnerabilities.


1) Information disclosure (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-46363)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to excessive data output when the CXFServlet is configured with both the static-resources-list and redirect-query-check attributes. A remote attacker can gain list directories on the system or exfiltrate code.


2) 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.


3) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-34455)

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 trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


4) Integer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-34454)

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

The vulnerability exists due to integer overflow in compress. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application, trigger integer overflow and cause a denial of service condition on the target system.


5) Integer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-34453)

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

The vulnerability exists due to integer overflow in shuffle. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application, trigger integer overflow and cause a denial of service condition on the target system.


6) LDAP injection (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-33201)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass authentication process.

The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation in applications that use an LDAP CertStore from Bouncy Castle to validate X.509 certificates. During the certificate validation process, Bouncy Castle inserts the certificate's Subject Name into an LDAP search filter without any escaping, which leads to an LDAP injection vulnerability. A remote non-authenticated attacker can use a specially crafted X.509 certificate to bypass authentication process and gain unauthorized access to the application.
