Description
This security bulletin contains information about 6 secuirty vulnerabilities.
1) UNIX symbolic link following (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-6597)
The vulnerability allows a local user to delete arbitrary files on the system.
The vulnerability exists due to a symlink following issue during cleanup when handling temporary files. A local user can create a specially crafted symbolic link to a critical file on the system and delete it.
2) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-44487)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to improperly control of consumption for internal resources when handling HTTP/2 requests with compressed HEADERS frames. A remote attacker can send a sequence of compressed HEADERS frames followed by RST_STREAM frames and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack, a.k.a. "Rapid Reset".
Note, the vulnerability is being actively exploited in the wild.
3) 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.
4) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-45338)
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 in several Parse functions. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted input to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
5) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-41723)
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 in the HPACK decoder. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted HTTP/2 stream to the application, cause resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
6) Inclusion of Sensitive Information in Log Files (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-6104)
The vulnerability allows a local user to gain access to sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to software stores sensitive information into log files. A local user can read the log files and gain access to sensitive data obtain from HTTP requests.
