Description

This security bulletin contains information about 55 secuirty vulnerabilities.


1) Unchecked Return Value (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-23806)

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

The vulnerability exists due to unchecked return value within the Curve.IsOnCurve() function in crypto/elliptic. A remote attacker can force the application to incorrectly return true in situations with a big.Int value that is not a valid field element. As a result, an attacker can modify application flow, which can lead to unauthorized data modification or denial of service.


2) Use of a broken or risky cryptographic algorithm (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-40528)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information.

3) Path traversal (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-42771)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to user compromise the affected system.

The vulnerability exists due to input validation error when processing directory traversal sequences within the locale .dat files in Babel.Locale. A remote user can load a malicious .dat file containing serialized Python objects and execute arbitrary code on the system.


4) 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.


5) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-1271)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise the affected system.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation when processing filenames with two or more newlines. A remote attacker can force zgrep or xzgrep to write arbitrary files on the system.

Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may allow an attacker to compromise the affected system.


6) Heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-1621)

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

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error. A remote attacker can trick the victim to open a specially crafted file, 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.


7) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-1629)

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

8) Improper access control (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-1706)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain unauthorized access to otherwise restricted functionality.

The vulnerability exists due to improper access restrictions in ignition configs. A remote user on the local network can bypass implemented security restrictions and obtain sensitive information.


9) Race condition (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-1729)

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

The vulnerability exists due to a race condition within sys_perf_event_open() in Linux kernel. A local user can exploit the race and gain unauthorized access to sensitive information and escalate privileges on the system.


10) Improper Authentication (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-22576)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass authentication process.

The vulnerability exists due to an error when re-using OAUTH2 connections for SASL-enabled protocols, such as SMPTP(S), IMAP(S), POP3(S) and LDAP(S) (openldap only). libcurl may reuse OAUTH2-authenticated connections without properly making sure that the connection was authenticated with the same credentials as set for this transfer. As a result, a connection that is successfully created and authenticated with a user name + OAUTH2 bearer can subsequently be erroneously reused even for user + [other OAUTH2 bearer], even though that might not even be a valid bearer.

A remote attacker can exploit this vulnerability against applications intended for use in multi-user environments to bypass authentication and gain unauthorized access to victim's accounts.

If the web application performs redirection to a different port number of protocol, cURL will allow such redirection and will pass credentials. It could also leak the TLS SRP credentials this way.

By default, curl only allows redirects to HTTP(S) and FTP(S), but can be asked to allow redirects to all protocols curl supports.


22) Information disclosure (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-27776)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to curl can leak authentication or cookie header data during HTTP redirects to the same host but another port number. When asked to send custom headers or cookies in its HTTP requests, curl sends that set of headers only to the host which name is used in the initial URL, so that redirects to other hosts will make curl send the data to those. However, due to a flawed check, curl wrongly also sends that same set of headers to the hosts that are identical to the first one but use a different port number or URL scheme.

The vulnerability exists due to an incomplete fix for #VU10224 (CVE-2018-1000007).


23) Incorrect Implementation of Authentication Algorithm (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-27782)

The vulnerability exists due to the way libcurl handles previously used connections in a connection pool for subsequent transfers. Several TLS and SSH settings were left out from the configuration match checks, resulting in erroneous matches for different resources. As a result, libcurl can send authentication string from one resource to another, exposing credentials to a third-party.


24) Integer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-28327)

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