Description
This security bulletin contains information about 20 secuirty vulnerabilities.
1) 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.
2) Reachable Assertion (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-0567)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to a reachable assertion when verifying a certificate chain with a cycle of cross signatures. A remote attacker can pass a specially crafted certificate to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
3) Information Exposure Through Timing Discrepancy (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-0553)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform timing attack.
The vulnerability exists due to the response times to malformed ciphertexts in RSA-PSK ClientKeyExchange differ from response times of ciphertexts with correct PKCS#1 v1.5 padding. A remote attacker can perform timing sidechannel attack in RSA-PSK key exchange.
Note, the vulnerability exists due to incomplete fox for #VU83316 (CVE-2023-5981).
4) OS Command Injection (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-51385)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary shell commands on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation when processing user names, if a user name or host name has shell metacharacters, and this name is referenced by an expansion token in certain situations. A remote attacker can execute arbitrary OS commands via an untrusted Git repository.
5) Inadequate encryption strength (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-48795)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform MitM attack.
The vulnerability exists due to incorrect implementation of the SSH Binary Packet Protocol (BPP), which mishandles the handshake phase and the use of sequence numbers. A remote attacker can perform MitM attack and delete the SSH2_MSG_EXT_INFO message sent before authentication starts, allowing the attacker to disable a subset of the keystroke timing obfuscation features introduced in OpenSSH 9.5.
The vulnerability was dubbed "Terrapin attack" and it affects both client and server implementations.
6) Information disclosure (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-46218)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to an error in curl that allows a malicious HTTP server to set "super cookies" that are then passed back to more origins than what is otherwise allowed or possible. A remote attacker can force curl to send such cookie to different and unrelated sites and domains.
7) Information disclosure (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-45803)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to urllib3 does not remove the HTTP request body when redirecting HTTP response using status codes 301, 302, or 303, after the request had its method changed from one that could accept a request body (e.g. from POST to GET). A remote attacker can gain access to potentially sensitive information.
8) Information disclosure (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-43804)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to urllib does not strip the "Cookie" HTTP header during cross-origin HTTP redirects. A remote attacker can gain unauthorized access to sensitive information.
9) Improper Authentication (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-42465)
The vulnerability allows a local user to bypass authentication process.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient resistance to rowhammer attacks. A local user can bypass authentication process and gain unauthorized access to the system.
10) Improper Certificate Validation (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-29409)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to verifying certificate chains containing large RSA keys is slow. A remote attacker can cause a client/server to expend significant CPU time verifying signatures.
11) Time-of-check Time-of-use (TOCTOU) Race Condition (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-35937)
The vulnerability allows a local privileged user to escalate privileges on the system.
The vulnerability exist due to race condition. A local privileged user can bypass the checks that were introduced in response to CVE-2017-7500 and CVE-2017-7501, potentially gaining root privileges.
12) Improper Neutralization of HTTP Headers for Scripting Syntax (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-29406)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform spoofing attack.
The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation in HTTP/1 client when handling HTTP Host header. A remote non-authenticated attacker can send a specially crafted HTTP request with a maliciously crafted Host header and inject additional headers or entire requests.
Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may allow an attacker to perform cross-site scripting, cache poisoning or session hijacking attacks.
13) OS Command Injection (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-28487)
The vulnerability allows a local user to execute arbitrary shell commands on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation when processing control characters in the sudoreplay output. A local user can inject specially crafted characters to the log messages and execute arbitrary OS commands on the system.14) OS Command Injection (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-28486)
The vulnerability allows a local user to execute arbitrary shell commands on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation when processing control characters in the log messages. A local user can inject specially crafted characters to the log messages and execute arbtirary OS commands on the system when the command is executed from the log (e.g. via the "sudoreplay -l").
15) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-27043)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass filtration.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input when parsing email address with a special character. A remote attacker can bypass a protection mechanism in which application access is granted only after verifying receipt of e-mail to a specific domain.
16) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-7104)
The vulnerability allows a remote user to gain access to potentially sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary condition within the sessionReadRecord() function in ext/session/sqlite3session.c when processing a corrupt changeset. A remote user can send a specially crafted request to trigger an out-of-bounds read error and read contents of memory on the system or perform a denial of service attack.
17) Information Exposure Through Timing Discrepancy (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-5981)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform timing attack.
The vulnerability exists due to the response times to malformed ciphertexts in RSA-PSK ClientKeyExchange differ from response times of ciphertexts with correct PKCS#1 v1.5 padding. A remote attacker can perform timing sidechannel attack in RSA-PSK key exchange.
18) Cryptographic issues (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-5363)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to an error when processing key and initialisation vector lengths in EVP_EncryptInit_ex2(), EVP_DecryptInit_ex2() and EVP_CipherInit_ex2() function. A remote attacker can gain access to potentially sensitive information.
The following ciphers and cipher modes are impacted: RC2, RC4, RC5, CCM, GCM and OCB.
19) Link following (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-35939)
The vulnerability allows a local privileged user to escalate privileges on the system.
The vulnerability exist due to fix for CVE-2017-7500 and CVE-2017-7501 was incomplete: the check was only implemented for the parent directory of the file to be created. A local privileged user who owns another ancestor directory could potentially use this flaw to gain root privileges.
20) Link following (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-35938)
The vulnerability allows a local privileged user to escalate privileges on the system.
The vulnerability occurs when rpm sets the desired permissions and credentials after installing a file. A local privileged user can use this flaw to exchange the original file with a symbolic link to a security-critical file and escalate their privileges on the system.
