Description

This security bulletin contains information about 4 vulnerabilities.


1) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-5318)

CWE-ID: CWE-125 - Out-of-bounds read

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


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

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary condition within the sftp_handle() function. A remote user can trigger an out-of-bounds read error and read contents of memory on the system.


2) Type Confusion (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-49796)

CWE-ID: CWE-843 - Type confusion

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:L/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 type confusion error within the xmlSchematronFormatReport() function when processing sch:name elements in schematron.c. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application, trigger a type confusion error and crash the application. 


3) Path traversal (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-4517)

CWE-ID: CWE-22 - Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory ('Path Traversal')

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


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

The vulnerability exists due to input validation error in the tarfile module when extracting files from an archive with filter="data". A remote attacker can pass specially crafted archive to the application and write files to arbitrary locations on the system outside the extraction directory.


4) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-6965)

CWE-ID: CWE-119 - Memory corruption

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:L/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 boundary error when processing aggregated terms. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted input to the application where the number of aggregate terms exceeds the number of columns available, trigger memory corruption and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
