Description
This security bulletin contains information about 6 secuirty vulnerabilities.
1) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-2004)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass certain security restrictions.
The vulnerability exists due to an error when a protocol selection parameter option disables all protocols without adding any. As a result, the default set of protocols would remain in the allowed set due to an error in the logic for removing protocols.
2) Improper Certificate Validation (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-2379)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform MitM attack.
The vulnerability exists due to improper certificate validation for a QUIC connection under certain conditions, when built to use wolfSSL. A remote attacker can force the application to ignore the certificate and perform MitM attack.
Successful exploitation of the vulnerability requires that the used wolfSSL library was built with the OPENSSL_COMPATIBLE_DEFAULTS symbol set, which is not set for the recommended configure --enable-curl builds.
3) Missing Release of Resource after Effective Lifetime (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-2398)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to an error when sending HTTP/2 server push responses with an overly large number of headers. A remote attacker can send PUSH_PROMISE frames with an excessive amount of headers to the application, trigger memory leak and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
4) Improper validation of certificate with host mismatch (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-2466)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform MitM attack.
The vulnerability exists due to libcurl does not check the server certificate of TLS connections done to a host specified as an IP address, when built to use mbedTLS. A remote attacker force the application to completely skip the certificate check and perform MitM attack.
5) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-27316)
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 internal resources when handling HTTP/2 requests. A remote attacker can send specially crafted HTTP/2 requests to the server and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
6) 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.
