Description

This security bulletin contains information about 5 vulnerabilities.


1) Deserialization of Untrusted Data (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-46877)

CWE-ID: CWE-502 - Deserialization of Untrusted Data

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 insecure input validation when processing serialized JsonNode values. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

Note, the vulnerability affects JDK serialization only.


2) Improper Certificate Validation (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-0341)

CWE-ID: CWE-295 - Improper Certificate Validation

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform MitM attack.

the vulnerability exists due to improper certificate validation within the verifyHostName in OkHostnameVerifier.java in okhttp library in Android runtime. A remote attacker can force the system to accept a certificate for the wrong domain due to improperly used crypto and perform MitM attack.


3) Infinite loop (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-35515)

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 when processing 7Z archives. A remote attacker can consume all available system resources and cause denial of service conditions.


4) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-35516)

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 application does not properly control consumption of internal resources when processing 7Z archives. A remote attacker can trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


5) 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.
