Description

This security bulletin contains information about 3 vulnerabilities.


1) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-48063)

CWE-ID: CWE-400 - Resource exhaustion

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


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 within the load_separate_debug_files() function in dwarf2.c. A remote attacker can trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


2) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-48064)

CWE-ID: CWE-400 - Resource exhaustion

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


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 within the bfd_dwarf2_find_nearest_line_with_alt() function in dwarf2.c. A remote attacker can trigger resource exhaustion via a crafted ELF file and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


3) Memory leak (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-48065)

CWE-ID: CWE-401 - Missing release of memory after effective lifetime

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


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform DoS attack on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due memory leak within the find_abstract_instance() function in dwarf2.c. A remote attacker can force the application to leak memory and perform denial of service attack.
