Description

This security bulletin contains information about 8 vulnerabilities.


1) Incorrect User Management (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-28020)

CWE-ID: CWE-286 - Incorrect User Management

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:H/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:N/SC:H/SI:H/SA:H/E:U/U:Clear


The vulnerability allows a remote user to compromise the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to the user/password reuse issue. A remote administrator can use the passwords and login information to extend access on the server and other services.


2) Improper Restriction of Excessive Authentication Attempts (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-28022)

CWE-ID: CWE-307 - Improper Restriction of Excessive Authentication Attempts

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:L/VI:L/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green


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

The vulnerability exists due to improper restriction of excessive authentication attempts. A remote attacker can conduct brute force attacks to gain access to other components in the same security realm using the targeted account.


3) Cleartext storage of sensitive information (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-28024)

CWE-ID: CWE-312 - Cleartext Storage of Sensitive Information

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:P/PR:H/UI:N/VC:H/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear


The vulnerability allows a local user to gain access to potentially sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to cleartext storage of sensitive information. A local administrator can gain access sensitive information on the target system.


4) Authentication bypass using an alternate path or channel (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-2013)

CWE-ID: CWE-288 - Authentication Bypass Using an Alternate Path or Channel

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:U/U:Amber


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass authentication process.

The vulnerability exists due to the authentication bypass using an alternate path or channel. A remote attacker can interact with the services and the post-authentication attack surface.


5) Improper Neutralization of Argument Delimiters in a Command (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-2012)

CWE-ID: CWE-88 - Argument Injection or Modification

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:H/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:N/SC:H/SI:H/SA:H/E:U/U:Clear


The vulnerability allows a remote user to execute arbitrary argument.

The vulnerability exists due to improper neutralization of argument delimiters in a command. A remote administrator can execute arbitrary code on the target system.


6) Heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-2011)

CWE-ID: CWE-122 - Heap-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: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. A remote attacker can pass 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.


7) Improper Certificate Validation (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-28021)

CWE-ID: CWE-295 - Improper Certificate Validation

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green


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

The vulnerability exists due to improper message queueing mechanism's certificate validation. A remote attacker can spoof a trusted entity causing a loss of confidentiality and integrity.


8) Use of Hard-coded Password (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-28023)

CWE-ID: CWE-259 - Use of Hard-coded Password

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:H/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:N/SC:H/SI:H/SA:H/E:U/U:Clear


The vulnerability allows a local user to compromise the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to use a hard-coded password in the message queueing mechanism. A local administrator can execute arbitrary code on the target system.
