Security Bulletin
This security bulletin contains information about 3 vulnerabilities.
1) Incorrect Regular Expression
EUVDB-ID: #VU96716
Risk: Medium
CVSSv4.0: 6.6 [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]
CVE-ID: CVE-2024-39249
CWE-ID:
CWE-185 - Incorrect Regular Expression
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient input validation when processing regular expressions. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application and perform regular expression denial of service (ReDos) attack.
Install update from vendor's website.
