Description
This security bulletin contains information about 6 secuirty vulnerabilities.
1) Memory leak (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-41172)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform DoS attack on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due memory leak in HTTPClient. A remote attacker can force the application to leak memory and perform denial of service attack.
2) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-52428)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to improper validation of user requests by the PasswordBasedDecrypter (PBKDF2) component. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted request using a large JWE p2c header, trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
3) Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-4029)
The vulnerability allows a local user to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to the lack of limitation of sockets for the management interface. A local administrator can cause a denial of service condition on the target system.
4) Improper input validation (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-34169)
The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to compromise the affected system.
The vulnerability exists due to an integer truncation issue when processing malicious XSLT stylesheets. A remote non-authenticated attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application to corrupt Java class files generated by the internal XSLTC compiler and execute arbitrary Java bytecode.
5) Open redirect (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-8883)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to redirect victims to arbitrary URL.
The vulnerability exists due to a misconfiguration when handling redirects. A remote attacker can create a link that leads to a trusted website, however, when clicked, redirects the victim to arbitrary domain if a 'Valid Redirect URI' is set to http://localhost or http://127.0.0.1
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow a remote attacker to perform a phishing attack and steal potentially sensitive information.
6) Improper verification of cryptographic signature (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-8698)
The vulnerability allows a remote user to escalate privileges within the application.
The vulnerability exists due to improper validation of SAML signature within the Keycloak XMLSignatureUtil class. The method incorrectly determines whether a SAML signature is for the full document or only for specific assertions based on the position of the signature in the XML document, rather than the Reference element used to specify the signed element. A remote user can create crafted responses that bypass the validation, potentially leading to privilege escalation or impersonation attacks.
