Description

This security bulletin contains information about 2 vulnerabilities.


1) NULL pointer dereference (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-49083)

CWE-ID: CWE-476 - NULL Pointer Dereference

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 a NULL pointer dereference error when calling the load_pem_pkcs7_certificates() or load_der_pkcs7_certificates() functions. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted PKCS7 blob/certificate certificate to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


2) Observable discrepancy (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-50782)

CWE-ID: CWE-203 - Observable discrepancy

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


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to excessive data output by the application. A remote attacker can decrypt captured messages in TLS servers that use RSA key exchanges, which may lead to exposure of confidential or sensitive data.
