Description

This security bulletin contains information about 6 secuirty vulnerabilities.


1) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-44717)

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 processing HTTP/2 requests. A remote attacker can send multiple HTTP/2 requests to the server and exhaust all available memory resources.


2) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-44716)

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 pass specially crafted input to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


3) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-43565)

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 when parsing a Signer to ServerConfig.AddHostKey in cases where the Signer passed to AddHostKey does not implement AlgorithmSigner or the Signer passed to AddHostKey returns a key of type “ssh-rsa” from its PublicKey method. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted input to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


4) Race condition (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-36221)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to a race condition in net/http/httputil ReverseProxy when handling ErrAbortHandler events. A remote attacker can trigger a race condition and crash the ReverseProxy.


5) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-29923)

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

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input in net.ParseIP and net.ParseCIDR, as the Go interpreter does not properly consider extraneous zero characters at the beginning of an IP address octet. A remote attacker can bypass access control that is based on IP addresses, because of unexpected octal interpretation.


6) Improper Certificate Validation (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-34558)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to improper certificate verification in crypto/tls package in Go when processing X.509 certificates. The application does not properly assert that the type of public key in an X.509 certificate matches the expected type when doing a RSA based key exchange, allowing a malicious TLS server to cause a TLS client to panic.
