Description

This security bulletin contains information about 5 secuirty vulnerabilities.


1) Buffer Underwrite ('Buffer Underflow') (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-45490)

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

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error in xmlparse.c when handling negative length for XML_ParseBuffer. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted input to the application, trigger buffer underflow and execute arbitrary code on the system.


2) Integer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-45491)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to integer overflow within the dtdCopy() function in xmlparse.c. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted input to the application, trigger an integer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.


3) Integer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-45492)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to integer overflow within the nextScaffoldPart() function in xmlparse.c. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application, trigger an integer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.


4) Type Confusion (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-6119)

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

The vulnerability exists due to a type confusion error when performing certificate name checks. A remote attacker can supply a specially crafted X.509 certificate to the server, trigger a type confusion error and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


5) 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.
