Description
This security bulletin contains information about 10 secuirty vulnerabilities.
1) LDAP injection (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-33201)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass authentication process.
The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation in applications that use an LDAP CertStore from Bouncy Castle to validate X.509 certificates. During the certificate validation process, Bouncy Castle inserts the certificate's Subject Name into an LDAP search filter without any escaping, which leads to an LDAP injection vulnerability. A remote non-authenticated attacker can use a specially crafted X.509 certificate to bypass authentication process and gain unauthorized access to the application.
2) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-26308)
The 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 memory when unpacking a broken Pack200 file. A remote attacker can trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
3) Cross-site scripting (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-23635)
The disclosed vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient sanitization of user-supplied data when parsing comment tags. A remote attacker can inject and execute arbitrary HTML and script code in user's browser in context of vulnerable website.
Successful exploitation of the vulnerability requires that the preserveComments directive is enabled in policy file.
4) Incorrect default permissions (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-2976)
The vulnerability allows a local user to escalate privileges on the system.
The vulnerability exists due to incorrect default permissions in com.google.common.io.FileBackedOutputStream. A local user with access to the system can view contents of files and directories or modify them.
5) Improper input validation (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-21007)
The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to gain access to sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation within the Core component in Oracle WebLogic Server. A remote non-authenticated attacker can exploit this vulnerability to gain access to sensitive information.
6) Improper input validation (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-21006)
The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to gain access to sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation within the Core component in Oracle WebLogic Server. A remote non-authenticated attacker can exploit this vulnerability to gain access to sensitive information.
7) 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.
8) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-52428)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to improper validation of user requests by the PasswordBasedDecrypter (PBKDF2) component. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted request using a large JWE p2c header, trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
9) Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-5072)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to allocation of resources without limits or throttling. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted input to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
10) Code Injection (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-23369)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted request and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
