Security Bulletin
This security bulletin contains information about 4 vulnerabilities.
1) Code Injection
EUVDB-ID: #VU85743
Risk: High
CVSSv3.1: 7.1 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]
CVE-ID: CVE-2023-50447
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 input validation within the PIL.ImageMath.eval function. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted input to the application and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.

2) Path traversal
EUVDB-ID: #VU85583
Risk: Medium
CVSSv3.1: 6.4 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]
CVE-ID: CVE-2023-49569
CWE-ID:
CWE-22 - Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory ('Path Traversal')
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform directory traversal attacks.
The vulnerability exists due to input validation error when processing directory traversal sequences. A remote attacker can overwrite arbitrary files on the system. Applications are only affected if they are using the ChrootOS, which is the default when using "Plain" versions of Open and Clone funcs (e.g. PlainClone).

3) Path traversal
EUVDB-ID: #VU86037
Risk: Medium
CVSSv3.1: 6.5 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]
CVE-ID: CVE-2024-23652
CWE-ID:
CWE-22 - Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory ('Path Traversal')
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform directory traversal attacks.
The vulnerability exists due to input validation error when processing directory traversal sequences within BuildKit frontend or Dockerfile using RUN --mount. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted HTTP request and read arbitrary files on the system.
