Description
This security bulletin contains information about 13 secuirty vulnerabilities.
1) Stack-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-36097)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service attack.
The vulnerability exists due to a stack-based overflow. A remote unauthenticated attacker can send a specially crafted request that cause the server to consume excessive memory resources.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
2) Improper input validation (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-48795)
The vulnerability allows a remote privileged user to read and manipulate data.
The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation within the Endeca Integration (Apache CXF) component in Oracle Commerce Platform. A remote privileged user can exploit this vulnerability to read and manipulate data.
3) Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-36047)
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. A remote attacker can trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
4) Inadequate encryption strength (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-48795)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform MitM attack.
The vulnerability exists due to incorrect implementation of the SSH Binary Packet Protocol (BPP), which mishandles the handshake phase and the use of sequence numbers. A remote attacker can perform MitM attack and delete the SSH2_MSG_EXT_INFO message sent before authentication starts, allowing the attacker to disable a subset of the keystroke timing obfuscation features introduced in OpenSSH 9.5.
The vulnerability was dubbed "Terrapin attack" and it affects both client and server implementations.
5) Interpretation Conflict (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-56339)
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 bypass security restrictions caused by a failure to honor security configuration.
6) Use of insufficiently random values (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-36732)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to the application generates random numbers by concatenating the string "0." with an
integer, which makes the output more predictable than necessary. A remote attacker can gain access to sensitive information.
7) Deserialization of Untrusted Data (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-6378)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to insecure input validation when processing serialized data in logback receiver component. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application and cause a denial of service condition on the target system.
8) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-38808)
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 when evaluating user-supplied SpEL expression. A remote attacker can trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
9) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-47554)
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 when handling untrusted input passed to the org.apache.commons.io.input.XmlStreamReader class. A remote attacker can trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
10) Uncontrolled Recursion (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-48924)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to the methods ClassUtils.getClass(...) can throw StackOverflowError on very long inputs. Because an Error is usually not handled by applications and libraries, a StackOverflowError could cause an application to stop. A remote attacker can trigger uncontrolled recursion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
11) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-48976)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to Apache Commons FileUpload provided a hard-coded limit of 10kB for the size of the headers associated with a multipart request. A remote attacker can trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
12) Cross-site scripting (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-36000)
The disclosed vulnerability allows a remote privileged user to perform cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient sanitization of user-supplied data. The vulnerability allows a privileged user to embed arbitrary JavaScript code in the Web UI thus altering the intended functionality potentially leading to credentials disclosure within a trusted session.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow a remote attacker to steal potentially sensitive information, change appearance of the web page, perform phishing and drive-by-download attacks.
13) Privilege Chaining (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-36124)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass security restrictions.
The vulnerability exists due to failure to honor JMS messaging configuration. A remote attacker can trigger the vulnerability to bypass security restrictions
