Description
This security bulletin contains information about 19 secuirty vulnerabilities.
1) Inconsistent interpretation of HTTP requests (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-1135)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform HTTP request smuggling attacks.
The vulnerability exists due to improper validation of HTTP requests when handling Transfer-Encoding headers. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted HTTP request to the server and smuggle arbitrary HTTP headers.
Successful exploitation of vulnerability may allow an attacker to poison HTTP cache and perform phishing attacks.
2) Information disclosure (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-37891)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to Prox-Authorization header is not stripped during cross-origin redirects when using urllib3's proxy support with ProxyManager. A remote attacker can gain obtain proxy credentials used by the library.
3) Code Injection (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-34069)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation within the debugger. A remote attacker can trick the developer to interact with a domain and subdomain they control and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
4) Uncontrolled Memory Allocation (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-4068)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to NPM package `braces` fails to limit the number of characters it can handle, which could lead to Memory Exhaustion. A remote attacker can send "imbalanced braces" as input, the parsing will enter a loop, which will cause the program to start allocating heap memory without freeing it at any moment of the loop. Eventually, the JavaScript heap limit is reached, and the program will crash.
5) Cross-site scripting (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-43788)
The disclosed vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient sanitization of user-supplied data in AutoPublicPathRuntimeModule. A remote attacker can trick the victim to follow a specially crafted link and execute arbitrary HTML and script code in user's browser in context of vulnerable website.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow a remote attacker to steal potentially sensitive information, change appearance of the web page, perform phishing and drive-by-download attacks.
6) Code Injection (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-6345)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation when processing URL in the package_index module of pypa/setuptools. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted request and execute arbitrary code on the target system via download functions.
7) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-47831)
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 within the image optimization feature. A remote attacker can trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
8) Cross-site scripting (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-34064)
The disclosed vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient sanitization of user-supplied data within the "xmlattr" filter. A remote attacker can trick the victim to follow a specially crafted link and execute arbitrary HTML and script code in user's browser in context of vulnerable website.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow a remote attacker to steal potentially sensitive information, change appearance of the web page, perform phishing and drive-by-download attacks.
9) Improper Certificate Validation (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-39689)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to modify data on the system.
The vulnerability exists due to Certifi python-certifi provide weaker than expected security, caused by the use of GLOBALTRUST root certificate. A remote attacker can trigger the vulnerability to launch further attacks on the system.
10) DOM-based cross-site scripting (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-47875)
The disclosed vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient sanitization of user-supplied data. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted input to the application and execute arbitrary HTML and script code in user's browser in context of vulnerable website.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow a remote attacker to steal potentially sensitive information, change appearance of the web page, perform phishing and drive-by-download attacks.
11) Prototype pollution (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-45801)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary JavaScript code.
The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted input to the application and perform prototype pollution, which can result in XSS attack.
12) Infinite loop (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-5569)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to infinite loop. A remote attacker can pass a specially crafted zip file to the application, consume all available system resources and cause denial of service conditions.
13) Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-39338)
The disclosed vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform SSRF attacks.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted HTTP request and trick the application to initiate requests to arbitrary systems.
