Description
This security bulletin contains information about 7 secuirty vulnerabilities.
1) Open redirect (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-26159)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to redirect victims to arbitrary URL.
The vulnerability exists due to improper sanitization of user-supplied data within the url.parse() function. 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) Out-of-bounds write (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-44638)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise vulnerable system.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error within the rasterize_edges_8() function. A remote attacker can trigger an out-of-bounds write and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
3) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-1192)
The vulnerability allows a local user to escalate privileges on the system.
The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error within the smb2_is_status_io_timeout() function in Linux kernel. A local user can set environment variable to a specific value, trigger a use-after-free error and execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges.
4) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-5345)
The vulnerability allows a local user to escalate privileges on the system.
The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error within the smb3_fs_context_parse_param() function in fs/smb/client component. A remote attacker can execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges.
5) Information disclosure (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-20569)
The vulnerability allows a remote user to gain access to potentially sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to a side channel issue in AMD CPUs. A remote user can influence the return address prediction and gain unauthorized access to sensitive information on the system.
6) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-39615)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary condition within the xmlSAX2StartElement() function in /libxml2/SAX2.c. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted XML input to the application, trigger an out-of-bounds read error and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
7) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-45871)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error within the IGB driver in drivers/net/ethernet/intel/igb/igb_main.c when handling frames larger than the MTU. A remote attacker can send specially crafted traffic to the system, trigger memory corruption and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
