Security Bulletin

This security bulletin contains information about 2 vulnerabilities.

1) Input validation error

EUVDB-ID: #VU91159

Risk: Low

CVSSv4.0: 1.7 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear]

CVE-ID: CVE-2024-24789

CWE-ID: CWE-20 - Improper input validation

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to manipulate data.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input in archive/zip when handling zip archives. A remote attacker can create a zip file with content that will vary depending on the implementation reading the file.

Mitigation

Update the affected packages:

    golang-bin-1.22.4-1.amzn2023.0.1.aarch64
    golang-shared-1.22.4-1.amzn2023.0.1.aarch64

2) Input validation error

EUVDB-ID: #VU91160

Risk: Medium

CVSSv4.0: 2.7 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green]

CVE-ID: CVE-2024-24790

CWE-ID: CWE-20 - Improper input validation

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to modify application behavior.

The vulnerability exists due to improper handling of IPv4-mapped IPv6 addresses in net/netip within multiple methods, e.g. IsPrivate, IsLoopback. The affected methods return false for addresses which would return true in their traditional IPv4 forms, leading to potential bypass of implemented security features.

Mitigation

Update the affected packages:

aarch64:
    golang-bin-1.22.4-1.amzn2023.0.1.aarch64
    golang-shared-1.22.4-1.amzn2023.0.1.aarch64
