Description
This security bulletin contains information about 3 vulnerabilities.
1) Observable discrepancy (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-30171)
CWE-ID: CWE-203 - Observable discrepancy
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:L/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to a possible timing based leakage in RSA based handshakes. A remote attacker can gain access to sensitive information.
2) Infinite loop (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-30172)
CWE-ID: CWE-835 - Loop with Unreachable Exit Condition ('Infinite Loop')
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to infinite loop in the Ed25519 verification code. A remote attacker can pass a specially signature and public key to the application, consume all available system resources and cause denial of service conditions.
3) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-29857)
CWE-ID: CWE-400 - Resource exhaustion
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to library does not properly control consumption of internal resources when importing an EC certificate with specially crafted F2m parameters. A remote attacker can pass a specially crafted certificate to the application to trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
