Description

This security bulletin contains information about 5 vulnerabilities.


1) Path traversal (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-59343)

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:N/VI:H/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Amber


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform directory traversal attacks.

The vulnerability exists due to symlink validation bypass if the destination directory is predictable with a specific tarball. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted HTTP request and read arbitrary files on the system.


2) NULL pointer dereference (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-6395)

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 a TLS 1.3 handshake involves a Hello Retry Request and the second Client Hello omits the PSK which was present in the first Client Hello. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


3) Double free (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-32988)

CWE-ID: CWE-415 - Double Free

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


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

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error when exporting a certificate with an otherName in the SAN (subject alternative name) extension. A remote attacker can trick the victim into export a specially crafted certificate, trigger a double free error on the ASN.1 structure and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

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


4) Heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-32989)

CWE-ID: CWE-122 - Heap-based Buffer Overflow

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


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

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error when handling the Certificate Transparency (CT) Signed Certificate Timestamp (SCT) extension during X.509 certificate parsing. A remote attacker can supply a specially crafted X.509 certificate to the application, trigger a heap-based buffer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

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


5) NULL pointer dereference (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-32990)

CWE-ID: CWE-476 - NULL Pointer Dereference

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


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 the certtool program is invoked with a template file with a number of string pairs for a single keyword. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
