Description

This security bulletin contains information about 8 secuirty vulnerabilities.


1) Use of a broken or risky cryptographic algorithm (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-3596)

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

The vulnerability exists due to use of a broken or risky cryptographic algorithm in RADIUS Protocol. A remote user can perform a man-in-the-middle (MitM) attack and gain access to target system.


2) Memory leak (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-26462)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform DoS attack on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due memory leak in /krb5/src/kdc/ndr.c. A remote attacker can force the application to leak memory and perform denial of service attack.


3) Memory leak (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-26458)

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

The vulnerability exists due to memory leak in /krb5/src/lib/rpc/pmap_rmt.c. A remote attacker can perform a denial of service attack.


4) Memory leak (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-26461)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform DoS attack on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due memory leak in /krb5/src/lib/gssapi/krb5/k5sealv3.c. A remote attacker can force the application to leak memory and perform denial of service attack.


5) Information Exposure Through Timing Discrepancy (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-2236)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform timing attack.

The vulnerability exists due to an error in libgcrypt's RSA implementation. A remote attacker can initiate a Bleichenbacher-style attack, which can lead to the decryption of RSA ciphertexts.


6) Resource management error (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-4603)

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

The vulnerability exists due to improper management of internal resources within the application when checking DSA keys and parameters. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


7) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-4741)

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

The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error within the SSL_free_buffers() function. A remote attacker can trigger a use-after-free error and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

Note, the vulnerability affects only applications that call the vulnerable function.


8) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-5535)

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

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary condition within the SSL_select_next_proto() function when using NPN. A remote attacker can send specially crafted data to the application, trigger an out-of-bounds read and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
