Description

This security bulletin contains information about 4 secuirty vulnerabilities.


1) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-39325)

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

The vulnerability exists due to excessive consumption of internal resources when handling HTTP/2 requests. A remote attacker can bypass the http2.Server.MaxConcurrentStreams setting by creating new connections while the current connections are still being processed, trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


2) Improper validation of integrity check value (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-3727)

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

The vulnerability exists due to improper validation of integrity check. A remote attacker can trick the victim into providing authenticated registry accesses, causing resource exhaustion, local path traversal, and other attacks.


3) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-45288)

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

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient limitations placed on the amount of CONTINUATION frames that can be sent within a single HTTP/2 stream. A remote attacker can send specially crafted HTTP/2 requests to the server and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

4) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-39326)

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 chunked requests. A remote attacker can send specially crafted HTTP requests to the server and consume excessive memory resources.
