Description

This security bulletin contains information about 6 secuirty vulnerabilities.


1) Code Injection (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-22965)

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

The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted HTTP request to the affected application and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

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

Note, the vulnerability is being actively exploited in the wild.

This vulnerability was dubbed "Spring4Shell".


2) Infinite loop (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-0778)

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

The vulnerability exists due to infinite loop within the BN_mod_sqrt() function when processing an ASN.1 certificate that contains elliptic curve public keys in compressed form or explicit elliptic curve parameters with a base point encoded in compressed form. A remote attacker can supply a specially crafted certificate to the TLS server or client, consume all available system resources and cause denial of service conditions.


3) NULL pointer dereference (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-26691)

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

The vulnerability exists due to a NULL pointer dereference error in mod_session. A a malicious backend server or SessionHeader can trigger a denial of service (DoS) condition.


4) Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-40438)

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

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input within the mod_proxy module in Apache HTTP Server. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted HTTP request with a chosen uri-path and trick the web server to initiate requests to arbitrary systems.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow a remote attacker gain access to sensitive data, located in the local network or send malicious requests to other servers from the vulnerable system.


5) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-44790)

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

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error when parsing multipart content in mod_lua. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted HTTP request to the affected web server, trigger buffer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

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


6) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-20325)

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

The vulnerability exists due to missing fixes for CVE-2021-40438 and CVE-2021-26691 in the versions of httpd. A remote attacker can trigger memory corruption and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
