Security Bulletin

This security bulletin contains information about 8 vulnerabilities.

1) Integer overflow

EUVDB-ID: #VU22814

Risk: High

CVSSv3.1: 7.3 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:H/E:P/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2019-19012

CWE-ID: CWE-190 - Integer overflow

Exploit availability: No

Description

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

The vulnerability exists due to integer overflow in the "search_in_range" function in "regexec.c". A remote attacker can use a specially crafted regular expression, trigger out-of-bounds read and cause a denial-of-service or information disclosure on the target system.


Mitigation

Install update from vendor's website.

CVE-ID: CVE-2019-13224

CWE-ID: CWE-416 - Use After Free

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise vulnerable system.

The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error within the onig_new_deluxe() function in regext.c in Oniguruma library when processing regular expressions. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted input to the application using the vulnerable library version, trigger use-after-free error and perform denial of service attack or execute arbitrary code on the system.

Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may allow an attacker to compromise vulnerable system.
