Description

This security bulletin contains information about 17 secuirty vulnerabilities.


1) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-51775)

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 via large p2c (aka PBES2 Count) value and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


2) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-47554)

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 untrusted input passed to the org.apache.commons.io.input.XmlStreamReader class. A remote attacker can trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


3) Inconsistent interpretation of HTTP requests (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-49768)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform HTTP request smuggling attacks.

The vulnerability exists due to improper validation of HTTP requests. 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.


4) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-8184)

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 ThreadLimitHandler.getRemote() function. A remote attacker can trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


5) Path traversal (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-38816)

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 applications serving static resources through the functional web frameworks WebMvc.fn or WebFlux.fn. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted HTTP request and read arbitrary files on the system.

Specifically, an application is vulnerable when both of the following are true:

  • the web application uses RouterFunctions</code> to serve static resources</li><li>resource handling is explicitly configured with a <code>FileSystemResource location


6) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-41742)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information or perform a denial of service attack.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary condition within the ngx_http_mp4_module module when handling MP4 files. A remote attacker can pass a specially crafted file to the server, trigger an out-of-bounds read error and read contents of memory on the system or perform a denial of service attack.


7) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-41741)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information or perform a denial of service attack.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary condition within the ngx_http_mp4_module module when handling MP4 files. A remote attacker can pass a specially crafted file to the server, trigger an out-of-bounds read error and read contents of memory on the system or perform a denial of service attack.


8) Use of a broken or risky cryptographic algorithm (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-50312)

The vulnerability allows an adjacent attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to weaker than expected security for outbound TLS connections caused by a failure to honor user configuration. An adjacent attacker can gain unauthorized access to sensitive information on the system.


9) Cross-site scripting (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-27270)

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 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.


10) Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-22329)

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.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow a remote attacker gain access to sensitive data, located in the local network or send malicious requests to other servers from the vulnerable system.


11) Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-6763)

The disclosed vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform SSRF attacks.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input in HttpURI. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted HTTP request and trick the application to initiate requests to arbitrary systems.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow a remote attacker gain access to sensitive data, located in the local network or send malicious requests to other servers from the vulnerable system.


12) Path traversal (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-38819)

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 applications that serve static resources through the functional web frameworks WebMvc.fn or WebFlux.fn. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted HTTP request and read arbitrary files on the system.


13) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-21534)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise the affected application.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input. A remote attacker can exploit the unsafe default usage of vm in Node and execute arbitrary code on the system.


14) Type Confusion (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-6119)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to a type confusion error when performing certificate name checks. A remote attacker can supply a specially crafted X.509 certificate to the server, trigger a type confusion error and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


15) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-38286)

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 during the TLS handshake process. A remote attacker can initiate multiple TLS connections, trigger memory exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


16) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-49769)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to application does not properly clean up connections. A remote attacker can force the server to open all available sockets and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


17) Improper Authorization (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-38821)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass authorization.

The vulnerability exists due to improper implementation of authorization checks when accessing static resources in WebFlux application. A remote non-authenticated attacker can bypass authorization process and gain unauthorized access to the application.
