Description
This security bulletin contains information about 8 vulnerabilities.
1) XML External Entity injection (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-22354)
CWE-ID: CWE-611 - Improper Restriction of XML External Entity Reference ('XXE')
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:L/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Amber
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied XML input. A remote attacker can pass a specially crafted XML code to the affected application and view contents of arbitrary files on the system or initiate requests to external systems.
Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may allow an attacker to view contents of arbitrary file on the server or perform network scanning of internal and external infrastructure.
2) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-22353)
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. A remote attacker can trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
3) Improper error handling (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-31919)
CWE-ID: CWE-388 - Error Handling
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:A/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 an error caused by an error processing messages when an API Exit using MQBUFMH is used. A remote attacker can perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
4) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-22201)
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 handling HTTP/2 connections. A remote attacker can trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
5) Information exposure through externally-generated error message (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-35156)
CWE-ID: CWE-211 - Externally-generated error message containing sensitive information
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:L/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to excessive data output by the application while handling error conditions. A remote attacker can obtain sensitive information on the system.
6) Information exposure through externally-generated error message (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-35155)
CWE-ID: CWE-211 - Externally-generated error message containing sensitive information
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:L/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to excessive data output by the IBM MQ Console while handling error conditions. A remote attacker can obtain sensitive information on the system.
7) Improper error handling (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-35116)
CWE-ID: CWE-388 - Error Handling
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/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 an error applying configuration changes. A remote attacker can send specially crafted requests to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
8) Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-31912)
CWE-ID: CWE-264 - Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls
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 user to escalate privileges on the system.
The vulnerability exists due to application does not properly impose security restrictions, which leads to security restrictions bypass and privilege escalation.
