Description
This security bulletin contains information about 8 vulnerabilities.
1) Use of a broken or risky cryptographic algorithm (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-3596)
CWE-ID: CWE-327 - Use of a Broken or Risky Cryptographic Algorithm
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:L/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:P/U:Green
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)
CWE-ID: CWE-401 - Missing release of memory after effective lifetime
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green
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)
CWE-ID: CWE-401 - Missing release of memory after effective lifetime
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green
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)
CWE-ID: CWE-401 - Missing release of memory after effective lifetime
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green
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)
CWE-ID: CWE-208 - Information Exposure Through Timing Discrepancy
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:L/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green
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)
CWE-ID: CWE-399 - Resource Management Errors
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear
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)
CWE-ID: CWE-416 - Use After Free
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green
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)
CWE-ID: CWE-125 - Out-of-bounds read
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:P/U:Clear
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.
