Description

This security bulletin contains information about 11 secuirty vulnerabilities.


1) Improper input validation (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-21587)

The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to read and manipulate data.

The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation within the JSSE component in Oracle GraalVM Enterprise Edition. A remote non-authenticated attacker can exploit this vulnerability to read and manipulate data.


2) Use of a broken or risky cryptographic algorithm (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-3576)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform MitM attack.

The vulnerability exists due to usage of RC4-HMAC-MD algorithm for GSSAPI-protected messages. A remote attacker can perform MitM attack.


3) Improper input validation (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-30698)

The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to read and manipulate data.

The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation within the 2D component in Oracle GraalVM Enterprise Edition. A remote non-authenticated attacker can exploit this vulnerability to read and manipulate data.


4) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-25724)

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

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error when processing .tar files within the list_item_verbose() function in tar/util.c. A remote attacker can create a specially crafted archive, trick the victim into opening it, trigger memory corruption and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

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


5) Out-of-bounds write (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-24528)

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

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error when calculating ulog block size in kadmind. A remote user can trigger an out-of-bounds write and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


6) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-0938)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass implemented security restrictions.

The vulnerability exists due to urllib.parse.urlsplit and urlparse accept domain names with square brackets. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted input to the application and bypass implemented security restrictions.


7) Integer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-0725)

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

The vulnerability exists due to integer overflow when handling gzip decompression of content-encoded HTTP responses with the CURLOPT_ACCEPT_ENCODING option using zlib 1.2.0.3 or older. A remote attacker can send specially crafted response to the application, trigger an integer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.



8) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-12243)

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

The vulnerability exists due to libtasn1 does not properly control consumption of internal resources when decoding certain DER-encoded certificate data. A remote attacker can trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


9) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-12133)

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

The vulnerability exists due to application does not properly control consumption of internal resources processing a large number of SEQUENCE OF or SET OF elements in a certificate. A remote attacker can trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


10) NULL pointer dereference (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-2953)

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

The vulnerability exists due to a NULL pointer dereference error within the ber_memalloc_x() function. A remote attacker can send specially crafted data to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


11) Uncontrolled recursion (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-3997)

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

The vulnerability exists due to uncontrolled recursion in systemd-tmpfiles. A local user can create multiple nested directories in the /tmp folder and case systemd to crash during the system boot.
