Description

This security bulletin contains information about 2 vulnerabilities.


1) Untrusted search path (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-24787)

CWE-ID: CWE-426 - Untrusted Search Path

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:A/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise the affected system.

The vulnerability exists due to usage of an untrusted search path in md/go. A remote attacker can trick the victim to build a Go module which contains CGO to trigger arbitrary code execution when using the Apple version of ld, due to usage of the -lto_library flag in a "#cgo LDFLAGS" directive.



2) Infinite loop (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-24788)

CWE-ID: CWE-835 - Loop with Unreachable Exit Condition ('Infinite Loop')

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to infinite loop when processing DNS responses. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted DNS response to the application and cause denial of service conditions.
