Description

This security bulletin contains information about 10 secuirty vulnerabilities.


1) Sensitive cookie in HTTPS session without Secure attribute (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-28708)

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

The vulnerability exists due to Apache Tomcat does not set the "Secure" attribute for the JSESSIONID session cookie when using the RemoteIpFilter with requests received from a reverse proxy via HTTP that include the X-Forwarded-Proto header set to https. A remote attacker can force the application to transmit cookie via an insecure channel and intercept it.


2) Integer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-25147)

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

The vulnerability exists due to integer overflow within the apr_base64() function. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application, trigger an integer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

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


3) Reliance on Reverse DNS Resolution for a Security-Critical Action (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-25220)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to poison DNS cache.

The vulnerability exists due to an error in DNS forwarder implementation. When using forwarders, bogus NS records supplied by, or via, those forwarders may be cached and used by named if it needs to recurse for any reason, causing it to obtain and pass on potentially incorrect answers. The cache could become poisoned with incorrect records leading to queries being made to the wrong servers, which might also result in false information being returned to clients.



4) Type Confusion (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-0286)

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

The vulnerability exists due to a type confusion error related to X.400 address processing inside an X.509 GeneralName. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application, trigger a type confusion error and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack or read memory contents.

In most cases, the attack requires the attacker to provide both the certificate chain and CRL, neither of which need to have a valid signature. If the attacker only controls one of these inputs, the other input must already contain an X.400 address as a CRL distribution point, which is uncommon. As such, this vulnerability is most likely to only affect applications which have implemented their own functionality for retrieving CRLs over a network.


5) Double Free (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-1999)

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

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error in libwebp. A remote attacker can trick the victim to visit a specially crafted page, trigger a double free error and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

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


6) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-29007)

The vulnerability allows an attacker to tamper with Git configuration.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient input validation in "git submodule deinit" when renaming or deleting a section from a configuration file. A remote attacker can trick the victim into running the command a malicious configuration file and tamper with Git configuration on the affected system.


7) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-22809)

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

The vulnerability exists within the sudoedit (aka -e) feature due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input passed in the user-provided environment variables (SUDO_EDITOR, VISUAL, and EDITOR). The problem exists because a user-specified editor may contain a "--" argument that defeats a protection mechanism, e.g., an EDITOR='vim -- /path/to/extra/file' value. A local user can append arbitrary entries to the list of files to process and escalate privileges on the system.


8) Out-of-bounds write (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-0767)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise vulnerable system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error when processing PKCS 12 Safe Bag attributes. A remote attacker can create a specially crafted PKCS 12 cert bundle, trick the victim into loading it, trigger an out-of-bounds write and execute arbitrary code on the target system.


9) Integer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-42898)

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

The vulnerability exists due to an integer overflow within the S4U2Proxy handler on 32-bit systems. A remote user can send specially crafted request to the KDC server, trigger an integer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

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


10) Heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-37434)

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

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error when processing a large gzip header within inflateGetHeader in inflate.c. A remote attacker can pass a specially crafted file to the affected application, trigger heap-based buffer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
