Description
This security bulletin contains information about 4 vulnerabilities.
1) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-52340)
CWE-ID: CWE-400 - Resource exhaustion
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 an error when processing very large ICMPv6 packets. A remote attacker can send a flood of IPv6 ICMP6 PTB messages, cause the high lock contention and increased CPU usage, leading to a denial of service.
Successful vulnerability exploitation requires a attacker to be on the local network or have a high bandwidth connection.
2) Memory leak (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-48839)
CWE-ID: CWE-401 - Missing release of memory after effective lifetime
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear
The vulnerability allows a local user to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to memory leak within the tpacket_rcv() and packet_recvmsg() functions in net/packet/af_packet.c. A local user can perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
3) Information disclosure (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-37165)
CWE-ID: CWE-200 - Exposure of sensitive information to an unauthorized actor
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:A/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:L/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to excessive data output by the router mode configuration. A remote attacker on the local network can inspect network packets to obtain VLAN and internal network configuration details.
4) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-37166)
CWE-ID: CWE-20 - Improper input validation
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 insufficient validation of user-supplied input. A remote attacker can send specially crafted packets to the device and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
