Description
This security bulletin contains information about 13 secuirty vulnerabilities.
1) Configuration (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-35890)
The issue may allow a remote attacker to bypass expected security restrictions.
The issue exists due to improper encoding in a local configuration file. A remote attacker can bypass expected security restrictions.
2) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-2597)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to in the implementation of the shared cache (which is enabled by default in OpenJ9 builds) the size of a string is not properly checked against the size of the buffer. A remote attacker can create a specially crafted file, trick the victim into opening it, trigger an out-of-bounds read error and read contents of memory on the system.
3) Improper input validation (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-21968)
The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to manipulate data.
The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation within the Libraries component in Oracle GraalVM Enterprise Edition. A remote non-authenticated attacker can exploit this vulnerability to manipulate data.
4) Improper input validation (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-21939)
The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to manipulate data.
The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation within the Swing component in Oracle GraalVM Enterprise Edition. A remote non-authenticated attacker can exploit this vulnerability to manipulate data.
5) Improper input validation (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-21938)
The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to manipulate data.
The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation within the Libraries component in Oracle GraalVM Enterprise Edition. A remote non-authenticated attacker can exploit this vulnerability to manipulate data.
6) Improper input validation (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-21937)
The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to manipulate data.
The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation within the Networking component in Oracle GraalVM Enterprise Edition. A remote non-authenticated attacker can exploit this vulnerability to manipulate data.
7) Improper input validation (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-21930)
The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to read and manipulate data.
The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation within the JSSE component in Oracle GraalVM Enterprise Edition. A remote non-authenticated attacker can exploit this vulnerability to read and manipulate data.
8) Inadequate Encryption Strength (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-32342)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to IBM GSKit is using weak cryptographic algorithms. A remote attacker can send an overly large number of trial messages for decryption and perform a timing-based side channel attack against the RSA Decryption implementation.
9) Improper validation of certificate with host mismatch (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-39161)
The vulnerability allows a remote user to perform MitM attack.
The vulnerability exists due to improper certificate validation issued by a trusted CA when configured to communicate with the Web Server Plug-ins for IBM WebSphere Application Server. A remote user can perform a man-in-the-middle (MitM) attack and gain access to sensitive information.
10) XML External Entity injection (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-27554)
The vulnerability allows a remote user to gain access to sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied XML input. A remote user can pass a specially crafted XML code to the affected application and view contents of arbitrary files on the system or initiate requests to external systems.
Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may allow an attacker to view contents of arbitrary file on the server or perform network scanning of internal and external infrastructure.
11) Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-24998)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to Apache Commons FileUpload does not limit the number of request parts. A remote attacker can initiate a series of uploads and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
12) Cross-site scripting (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-24966)
The disclosed vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient sanitization of user-supplied data in the Web UI. A remote attacker can trick the victim to follow a specially crafted link and execute arbitrary HTML and script code in user's browser in context of vulnerable website.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow a remote attacker to steal potentially sensitive information, change appearance of the web page, perform phishing and drive-by-download attacks.
13) HTTP response splitting (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-25690)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform HTTP splitting attacks.
The vulnerability exists due to software does not correclty process CRLF character sequences in mod_rewrite and mod_proxy. A remote attacker can send specially crafted request containing CRLF sequence and make the application to send a split HTTP response.
Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may allow an attacker perform cache poisoning attack.
