1) Resource management error (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-41724)

CWE-ID: CWE-399 - Resource Management Errors

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 improper management of internal resources in crypto/tls when handling large TLS handshake records. A remote attacker can send specially crafted data to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability affects all TLS 1.3 clients, TLS 1.2 clients which explicitly enable session resumption (by setting Config.ClientSessionCache to a non-nil value), and TLS 1.3 servers which request client certificates (by setting Config.ClientAuth >= RequestClientCert).


2) Code Injection (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-30580)

CWE-ID: CWE-94 - Improper Control of Generation of Code ('Code Injection')

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


The vulnerability allows a local user to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation in Cmd.Start in os/exec allows execution of any binaries in the working directory named either "..com" or "..exe" by calling Cmd.Run, Cmd.Start, Cmd.Output, or Cmd.CombinedOutput when Cmd.Path is unset. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted request and execute arbitrary code on the target system.


3) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-41716)

CWE-ID: CWE-20 - Improper input validation

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


The vulnerability allows a local user to execute arbitrary OS commands on the system.

The vulnerability exists due to insecure processing of unsanitized NUL values in syscall.StartProcess and os/exec.Cmd. A local user on the Windows operating system can set a specially crafted environment variable and execute arbitrary OS commands on the system.


4) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-30635)

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 calling Decoder.Decode on a message which contains deeply nested structures. A remote attacker can trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


5) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-30630)

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 calling Glob on a path that contains a large number of path separators. A remote attacker can trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


6) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-30632)

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 calling Glob on a path that contains a large number of path separators. A remote attacker can trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


7) Resource management error (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-2879)

CWE-ID: CWE-399 - Resource Management Errors

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 absent limits on the maximum size of file headers within the Reader.Read method in archive/tar. A remote attacker can pass a specially crafted file to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


8) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-30633)

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 calling Unmarshal on a XML document into a Go struct which has a nested field that uses the any field tag. A remote attacker can trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


9) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-41715)

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 in regexp/syntax when handling regular expressions. A remote attacker can trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


10) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-2880)

CWE-ID: CWE-20 - Improper input validation

CVSSv4: 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


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform parameter smuggling attacks.

The vulnerability exists due to incorrect handling of requests forwarded by ReverseProxy in net/http/httputil. A remote attacker can supply specially crafted parameters that cannot be parsed and are rejected by net/http and force the application to include these parameters into the forwarding request. As a result, a remote attacker can smuggle potentially dangerous HTTP parameters into the request.


11) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-28131)

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 calling Decoder.Skip when parsing a deeply nested XML document. A remote attacker can trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


12) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-30631)

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 in Reader.Read method when handling an archive that contains a large number of concatenated 0-length compressed files. A remote attacker can trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


13) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-32189)

CWE-ID: CWE-20 - Improper input validation
