Description

This security bulletin contains information about 7 vulnerabilities.


1) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-41168)

CWE-ID: CWE-416 - Use After Free

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:A/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 a use-after-free error. A remote attacker on the local network can cause a denial of service condition on the target system.


2) NULL pointer dereference (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-39356)

CWE-ID: CWE-476 - NULL Pointer Dereference

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:A/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 a NULL pointer dereference error. A remote attacker on the local network can pass specially crafted data to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


3) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-39606)

CWE-ID: CWE-20 - Improper input validation

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:A/AC:H/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 insufficient validation of user-supplied input. A remote attacker on the local network can pass specially crafted input to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


4) Race condition (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-40887)

CWE-ID: CWE-362 - Concurrent Execution using Shared Resource with Improper Synchronization ('Race Condition')

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:A/AC:H/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/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 a race condition. A remote attacker on the local network can exploit the race and cause a denial of service condition on the target system.


5) Stack-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-41166)

CWE-ID: CWE-121 - Stack-based buffer overflow

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:A/AC:H/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/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 a boundary error. A remote attacker on the local network can trigger stack-based buffer overflow and cause a denial of service condition on the target system.


6) Race condition (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-36285)

CWE-ID: CWE-362 - Concurrent Execution using Shared Resource with Improper Synchronization ('Race Condition')

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


The vulnerability allows a local user to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to a race condition. A local user can exploit the race and cause a denial of service condition on the target system.


7) Improper restriction of communication channel to intended endpoints (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-39271)

CWE-ID: CWE-923 - Improper Restriction of Communication Channel to Intended Endpoints

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


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

The vulnerability exists due to improper restriction of communication channel to intended endpoints. A remote attacker on the local network can gain access to sensitive information on the system.
