Description

This security bulletin contains information about 7 vulnerabilities.


1) Use of uninitialized resource (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-38260)

CWE-ID: CWE-908 - Use of Uninitialized Resource

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


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the system.

The vulnerability exists due to usage of uninitialized resources in Windows Remote Desktop Licensing Service. A remote user can pass specially crafted data to the application, trigger uninitialized usage of resources and execute arbitrary code on the target system.


2) Path traversal (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-38258)

CWE-ID: CWE-22 - Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory ('Path Traversal')

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/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 directory traversal attacks.

The vulnerability exists due to input validation error when processing directory traversal sequences in Windows Remote Desktop Licensing Service. A remote user can send a specially crafted HTTP request and read arbitrary files on the system.


3) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-43455)

CWE-ID: CWE-20 - Improper input validation

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


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input in Windows Remote Desktop Licensing Service. A remote user can pass specially crafted input to the application and perform spoofing attack.


4) Improper Authorization (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-38231)

CWE-ID: CWE-285 - Improper Authorization

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/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 a missing capability check in Windows Remote Desktop Licensing Service. A remote user can cause a denial of service condition on the target system.


5) Path traversal (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-43454)

CWE-ID: CWE-22 - Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory ('Path Traversal')

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


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform directory traversal attacks.

The vulnerability exists due to input validation error when processing directory traversal sequences in Windows Remote Desktop Licensing Service. A remote user can send a specially crafted HTTP request and read arbitrary files on the system, leading to arbitrary code execution.


6) Sensitive Data Storage in Improperly Locked Memory (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-38263)

CWE-ID: CWE-591 - Sensitive Data Storage in Improperly Locked Memory

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


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the system.

The vulnerability exists due to sensitive data storage in improperly locked memory in Windows Remote Desktop Licensing Service. A remote user can win a race condition and execute arbitrary code on the target system.


7) Race condition (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-43467)

CWE-ID: CWE-362 - Concurrent Execution using Shared Resource with Improper Synchronization ('Race Condition')

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


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the system.

The vulnerability exists due to a race condition in Windows Remote Desktop Licensing Service. A remote user can exploit the race and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
