Description

This security bulletin contains information about 12 secuirty vulnerabilities.


1) Inadequate Encryption Strength (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-3089)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform MitM attack.

The vulnerability exists within the OpenShift container platform configuration with enabled FIPS mode, which resulted in usage of not validated cryptographic modules. A remote attacker can perform various attacks against not validated cryptographic modules and gain access to sensitive information.


2) Code Injection (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-24540)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary JavaScript code.

The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation when processing whitespace characters. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted request and execute arbitrary JavaScript code.


3) Resource management error (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-2879)

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

The vulnerability exists due to absent limits on the maximum size of file headers within the Reader.Read method in archive/tar. A remote attacker can pass a specially crafted file to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


4) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-2880)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform parameter smuggling attacks.

The vulnerability exists due to incorrect handling of requests forwarded by ReverseProxy in net/http/httputil. A remote attacker can supply specially crafted parameters that cannot be parsed and are rejected by net/http and force the application to include these parameters into the forwarding request. As a result, a remote attacker can smuggle potentially dangerous HTTP parameters into the request.


5) Improper access control (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-2995)

The vulnerability allows a local user to gain unauthorized access to otherwise restricted functionality.

The vulnerability exists due to incorrect handling of the supplementary groups. A local user can bypass implemented security restrictions, leading to sensitive information disclosure or possible data modification.


6) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-27664)

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

The vulnerability exists due to an HTTP/2 connection can hang during closing if shutdown were preempted by a fatal error. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted input to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


7) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-32149)

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

The vulnerability exists due to ParseAcceptLanguage does not properly control consumption of internal resources. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted Accept-Language header that will take a significant time to parse and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


8) Path traversal (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-32190)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform directory traversal attacks.

The vulnerability exists due to input validation error when processing directory traversal sequences within JoinPath and URL.JoinPath. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted HTTP request and read arbitrary files on the system.


9) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-41715)

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 in regexp/syntax when handling regular expressions. A remote attacker can trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


10) Uncontrolled Recursion (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-1370)

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

The vulnerability exists due to uncontrolled recursion when processing nested arrays and objects. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted JSON data to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


11) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-24329)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass implemented filters.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of URLs that start with blank characters within urllib.parse component of Python. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted URL to bypass existing filters.


12) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-32067)

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 processing DNS responses. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted DNS response to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
