Description

This security bulletin contains information about 6 secuirty vulnerabilities.


1) XML External Entity injection (CVE-ID: CVE-2010-2245)

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

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied XML input. A remote attacker 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.


2) Creation of Temporary File With Insecure Permissions (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-24823)

The vulnerability allows a local user to gain access to sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to usage of insecure permissions for temporary files. A local user can view contents of temporary files and gain access to sensitive information.


3) Improper Certificate Validation (CVE-ID: CVE-2014-3577)

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

The vulnerability exists due to improper certificate validation. A remote attacker can perform a man-in-the-middle (MitM) attack and spoof SSL servers via a "CN=" string in a field in the distinguished name (DN) of a certificate.


4) Resource management error (CVE-ID: CVE-2015-5262)

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

The vulnerability exists due to improper management of internal resources within the application. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


5) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2013-4366)

The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to execute arbitrary code.

http/impl/client/HttpClientBuilder.java in Apache HttpClient 4.3.x before 4.3.1 does not ensure that X509HostnameVerifier is not null, which allows attackers to have unspecified impact via vectors involving hostname verification.


6) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-13956)

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

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input in Apache HttpClient. A remote attacker can pass request URIs to the library as java.net.URI object and force the application to pick the wrong target host for request execution.
