CVE-ID: CVE-2023-49316
CWE-ID:
CWE-400 - Resource exhaustion
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe 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 in Math/BinaryField.php. A remote attacker can trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
MitigationInstall update from vendor's website.
Vulnerable software versionssnipe-it: 6.0.0 - 6.2.3
External linkshttp://github.com/snipe/snipe-it/releases/tag/v6.3.0
Q & A
Can this vulnerability be exploited remotely?
Yes. This vulnerability can be exploited by a remote non-authenticated attacker via the Internet.
Is there known malware, which exploits this vulnerability?
No. We are not aware of malware exploiting this vulnerability.
2) Code Injection
EUVDB-ID: #VU81296
Risk: High
CVSSv3.1: 8.5 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]
CVE-ID: CVE-2023-43655
CWE-ID:
CWE-94 - Improper Control of Generation of Code ('Code Injection')
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to improper access restrictions. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted request to the server with published composer.phar and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system but requires that "register_argc_argv" option is enabled in php.ini.
