2) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-24784)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform spoofing attack.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of display names within the ParseAddressList function in net/mail. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted input to the application and perform a spoofing attack.


3) Error Handling (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-24783)

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

The vulnerability exists in crypto/x509 due to improper validation of a certificate chain that contains an unknown public key. A remote attacker can pass a specially crafted certificate to the application and perform a denial of service attack.


4) Infinite loop (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-24786)

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

The vulnerability exists due to infinite loop when parsing data in an invalid JSON format within the protojson.Unmarshal() function. A remote attacker can consume all available system resources and cause denial of service conditions.


5) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-45290)

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

The vulnerability exists in net/http due to application does not properly control consumption of internal resources when parsing a multipart form (either explicitly with Request.ParseMultipartForm or implicitly with Request.FormValue, Request.PostFormValue, or Request.FormFile). A remote attacker can trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
