Description
This security bulletin contains information about 13 secuirty vulnerabilities.
1) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-44487)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to improperly control of consumption for internal resources when handling HTTP/2 requests with compressed HEADERS frames. A remote attacker can send a sequence of compressed HEADERS frames followed by RST_STREAM frames and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack, a.k.a. "Rapid Reset".
Note, the vulnerability is being actively exploited in the wild.
2) Deserialization of Untrusted Data (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-46604)
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 in the OpenWire protocol. 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.
3) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-3223)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to improper management of internal resources by servlets annotated with @MultipartConfig. A remote attacker can send a large multipart content to the server, consume all available memory resources and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
4) Incorrect Conversion between Numeric Types (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-3635)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to GzipSource does not handle an exception that might be raised when parsing a malformed gzip buffer. A remote attacker can trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
5) Security features bypass (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-34034)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass security restrictions.
The vulnerability exists due to the usage of "**" as a pattern in Spring Security configuration for WebFlux creates a mismatch in pattern matching between Spring Security and Spring WebFlux. A remote unauthenticated attacker can trigger the vulnerability to bypass security restrictions.
6) Integer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-36478)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to integer overflow in MetaDataBuilder.checkSize when handling HTTP/2 HPACK header values. A remote attacker can send specially crafted request to the server, trigger an integer overflow and crash the server.
7) Deserialization of Untrusted Data (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-39410)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service attack.
The vulnerability exists due to reader can consume memory beyond the allowed constraints and thus lead to out of memory on the system, when deserializing untrusted or corrupted data. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application and perform a denial of service attack.
8) Inconsistent interpretation of HTTP requests (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-40167)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform HTTP request smuggling attacks.
The vulnerability exists due to improper validation of HTTP requests when handling the "+" character passed via the HTTP/1 header field. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted HTTP request to the server and smuggle arbitrary HTTP headers.
Successful exploitation of vulnerability may allow an attacker to poison HTTP cache and perform phishing attacks.
9) Exposed dangerous method or function (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-42794)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to Tomcat's internal fork of a Commons FileUpload included an unreleased, in progress refactoring that exposed a potential denial of service on Windows. A remote attacker can perform a denial of service attack by uploading multiple files to the server that are not removed.
10) Resource management error (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-42795)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to improper management of internal resources within the application when recycling various internal objects. A remote attacker can force Tomcat to skip some parts of the recycling process leading to information leaking from the current request/response to the next.
11) Inconsistent interpretation of HTTP requests (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-45648)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform HTTP request smuggling attacks.
The vulnerability exists due to improper validation when parsing HTTP trailer headers. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted HTTP request to the server and smuggle arbitrary HTTP headers.
Successful exploitation of vulnerability may allow an attacker to poison HTTP cache and perform phishing attacks.
12) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-36479)
The vulnerability allows a remote user to compromise the affected system.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input in org.eclipse.jetty.servlets.CGI Servlet when quoting a command before its execution. A remote user can force the application to execute arbitrary file on the server and potentially compromise the system.
13) Improper Authorization (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-41900)
The vulnerability allows a remote user to bypass implemented security restrictions.
The vulnerability exists due to an error in the revocation process. If a Jetty OpenIdAuthenticator uses the optional nested LoginService, and that LoginService decides to revoke an already authenticated user, then the current request will still treat the user as authenticated.
