The vulnerability allows a local user to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The
vulnerability exists due to a boundary error within the
ares__read_line() function when parsing local configuration files, such
as `/etc/resolv.conf`, `/etc/nsswitch.conf`, or `HOSTALIASES` file. A
local user can insert a NULL character as the first character in a new

2) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-28182)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to reading the unbounded number of HTTP/2 CONTINUATION frames. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted input to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
3) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-22025)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input when handling brotli decoding. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted input to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
4) Reachable Assertion (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-27983)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to a reachable assertion when handling HTTP/2 packets. A remote attacker can send a small amount of HTTP/2 frames packets with a few HTTP/2 frames inside and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
5) Inconsistent interpretation of HTTP requests (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-27982)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform HTTP request smuggling attacks.
The vulnerability exists due to improper validation of HTTP requests. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted HTTP request to the server and smuggle arbitrary HTTP headers.
Successful exploitation of vulnerability may allow an attacker to poison HTTP cache and perform phishing attacks.
