Description

This security bulletin contains information about 9 vulnerabilities.


1) Improper Encoding or Escaping of Output (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-47252)

CWE-ID: CWE-116 - Improper Encoding or Escaping of Output

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/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 manipulate data in log files. 

The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation in mod_ssl. In a logging configuration where CustomLog is used with "%{varname}x" or "%{varname}c" to log variables provided by mod_ssl such as SSL_TLS_SNI, no escaping is performed by either mod_log_config or mod_ssl and unsanitized data provided by the client may appear in log files. A remote attacker can manipulate contents of log files. 


2) Unchecked return value (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-54571)

CWE-ID: CWE-252 - Unchecked Return Value

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


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

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient checks of the return value when handling HTTP requests. A remote attacker can override HTTP response Content-Type header and perform XSS attacks or disclose arbitrary script source code.


3) Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-43204)

CWE-ID: CWE-918 - Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF)

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


The disclosed vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform SSRF attacks.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input in mod_proxy . A remote attacker can send a specially crafted HTTP request and trick the application to initiate requests to arbitrary systems.

Note, the vulnerability exploitation requires an unlikely configuration where mod_headers is configured to modify the Content-Type request or response header with a value provided in the HTTP request.


4) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-59375)

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 application does not properly control consumption of internal resources. A remote attacker can trigger large dynamic memory allocations via a small document and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


5) HTTP response splitting (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-42516)

CWE-ID: CWE-113 - Improper Neutralization of CRLF Sequences in HTTP Headers ('HTTP Response Splitting')

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


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform HTTP splitting attacks.

The vulnerability exists due to software does not correctly process CRLF character sequences. A remote attacker with ability to manipulate the Content-Type response headers of applications hosted or proxied by the server can send specially crafted request containing CRLF sequence and make the application to send a split HTTP response.

Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may allow an attacker perform cache poisoning attack.

Note, this vulnerability exists due a missing fix for #VU88151 (CVE-2023-38709).


6) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-41342)

CWE-ID: CWE-119 - Memory corruption

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


The vulnerability allows a local user to escalate privileges on the system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error. A local user can trigger memory corruption and execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges.


7) Security features bypass (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-23048)

CWE-ID: CWE-254 - Security Features

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


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

The vulnerability exists due to access control bypass with session resumption in mod_ssl. A remote attacker can use the TLS 1.3 session resumption to bypass implemented access control.

Configurations are affected when mod_ssl is configured for multiple virtual hosts, with each restricted to a different set of trusted client certificates (for example with a different SSLCACertificateFile/Path setting). In such a case, a client trusted to access one virtual host may be able to access another virtual host, if SSLStrictSNIVHostCheck is not enabled in either virtual host.


8) 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. 


9) Heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-21962)

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

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


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

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error in Oracle WebLogic Server Proxy Plug-in when handling HTTP requests. A remote attacker can send specially crafted HTTP requests to the server, 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.
