Description
This security bulletin contains information about 13 secuirty vulnerabilities.
1) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-2961)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error within the iconv() function when converting string to the ISO-2022-CN-EXT character set. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted input to the application, trigger a 4 byte buffer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
2) UNIX symbolic link following (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-6597)
The vulnerability allows a local user to delete arbitrary files on the system.
The vulnerability exists due to a symlink following issue during cleanup when handling temporary files. A local user can create a specially crafted symbolic link to a critical file on the system and delete it.
3) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-27043)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass filtration.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input when parsing email address with a special character. A remote attacker can bypass a protection mechanism in which application access is granted only after verifying receipt of e-mail to a specific domain.
4) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-33602)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to netgroup cache assumes NSS callback is using in-buffer strings in nscd binary. A remote attacker can trigger memory corruption and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
5) Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-33601)
The vulnerability allows a local user to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The
vulnerability exists due to the Name Service Cache Daemon (nscd) can terminate the service during its startup. A local use can perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
6) NULL pointer dereference (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-33600)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to a NULL pointer dereference error when nscd cache fails to add a not-found netgroup response to the cache. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
7) Stack-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-33599)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error in nscd binary. A remote unauthenticated attacker can exhaust the nscd fixed size cache to trigger a stack-based buffer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
8) 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.
9) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-25062)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise vulnerable system.
The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error in xmlValidatePopElement when using the XML Reader interface with DTD validation and XInclude expansion enabled. A remote attacker can pass a specially crafted XML document to the application, trigger a use-after-free error and execute arbitrary code on the system.
Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may allow an attacker to compromise vulnerable system.
10) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-22365)
The vulnerability allows a local user to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to application does not properly control consumption of internal resources in pam_namespace. A local user can trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
11) Insufficient verification of data authenticity (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-7008)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a MitM attack.
The vulnerability exists due to systemd-resolved accepts records of DNSSEC-signed domains even when they have no signature. A remote attacker can perform MitM attack.
12) Unchecked Return Value (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-6918)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to libssh does not check for returned values of message digest (MD) operations in low memory conditions. A remote attacker can terminate the connection or force the library to use weak keys.
13) OS Command Injection (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-6004)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary shell commands on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation in OpenSSH client. If an invalid user or hostname that contained shell metacharacters was passed to ssh(1), and a ProxyCommand, LocalCommand directive or "match exec" predicate referenced the user or hostname via %u, %h or similar expansion token, then an attacker who could supply arbitrary user/hostnames to ssh(1) could potentially perform command injection depending on what quoting was present in the user-supplied ssh_config(5) directive.
