Description
This security bulletin contains information about 6 vulnerabilities.
1) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-38475)
CWE-ID: CWE-20 - Improper input validation
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:A/U:Red
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise the affected system.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input in mod_rewrite when first segment of substitution matches filesystem path. A remote attacker can map URLs to filesystem locations that are permitted to be served by the server but are not intentionally/directly reachable by any URL and view contents of files or execute arbitrary code.
2) Heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-40763)
CWE-ID: CWE-122 - Heap-based Buffer Overflow
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Amber
The vulnerability allows a remote user to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error within the SSL-VPN interface. A remote attacker can send specially crafted data to the application, trigger a heap-based buffer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
3) Stack-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-45318)
CWE-ID: CWE-121 - Stack-based buffer overflow
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Amber
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error within the SSL-VPN web management interface. A remote non-authenticated attacker can send specially crafted data to the management interface, trigger a stack-based buffer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
4) Use of hard-coded credentials (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-45319)
CWE-ID: CWE-798 - Use of Hard-coded Credentials
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:L/VI:L/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green
The vulnerability allows a remote user to bypass certificate-based authentication.
The vulnerability exists due to presence of hard-coded credentials in application code. A remote authenticated user can circumvent the certificate requirement during authentication.
5) Use of Cryptographically Weak Pseudo-Random Number Generator (PRNG) (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-53702)
CWE-ID: CWE-338 - Use of Cryptographically Weak Pseudo-Random Number Generator (PRNG)
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:L/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to guess generated secrets.
The vulnerability exists due to usage of weak random generator values within the SSL-VPN backup code generator. A remote attacker can guess generated secret.
6) Stack-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-53703)
CWE-ID: CWE-121 - Stack-based buffer overflow
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:P/U:Amber
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error within the SSL-VPN mod_httprp library loaded by the Apache web server. A remote unauthenticated attacker can send specially crafted requests to the SSL-VPN web interface, trigger a stack-based buffer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
