Description

This security bulletin contains information about 7 vulnerabilities.


1) Cross-site scripting (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-45087)

CWE-ID: CWE-79 - Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting')

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


The disclosed vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient sanitization of user-supplied data in the Web UI. A remote attacker can trick the victim to follow a specially crafted link and execute arbitrary HTML and script code in user's browser in context of vulnerable website.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow a remote attacker to steal potentially sensitive information, change appearance of the web page, perform phishing and drive-by-download attacks.


2) Uncontrolled Memory Allocation (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-45663)

CWE-ID: CWE-789 - Uncontrolled Memory Allocation

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


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

The vulnerability exists due to application does not properly control consumption of internal resources. A remote user can trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


3) Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-41762)

CWE-ID: CWE-770 - Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling

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


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

The vulnerability exists due to application allocate resources without limits or throttling. A remote user can cause a server crash under certain conditions by sending a specially crafted query.


4) Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-41761)

CWE-ID: CWE-770 - Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling

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


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

The vulnerability exists due to application does not properly control consumption of internal resources. A remote user can trigger a server crash under certain conditions by sending a specially crafted query.


5) Inclusion of Sensitive Information in Log Files (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-40679)

CWE-ID: CWE-532 - Information Exposure Through Log Files

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/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 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.


6) Uncontrolled Memory Allocation (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-37071)

CWE-ID: CWE-789 - Uncontrolled Memory Allocation

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


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

The vulnerability exists due to application does not properly allocate memory. A remote user can trigger uncontrolled memory allocation and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


7) XML External Entity injection (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-45086)

CWE-ID: CWE-611 - Improper Restriction of XML External Entity Reference ('XXE')

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


The vulnerability allows a remote privileged user to gain access to sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied XML input. A remote privileged user can pass a specially crafted XML code to the affected application and view contents of arbitrary files on the system or initiate requests to external systems.

Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may allow an attacker to view contents of arbitrary file on the server or perform network scanning of internal and external infrastructure.
