Description
This security bulletin contains information about 9 secuirty vulnerabilities.
1) Out-of-bounds write (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-22218)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to usage of an uninitialized value within the _libssh2_transport_read() function in transport.c. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted input to the application, trigger memory corruption and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
2) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-20593)
The vulnerability allows a local user to escalate privileges on the system.
The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error in AMD Zen2 processors. A local user can trigger a use-after-free error and execute arbitrary code on the system.
Note, the vulnerability was dubbed Zenbleed.
3) Out-of-bounds write (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-35788)
The vulnerability allows a local user to escalate privileges on the system.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error within the fl_set_geneve_opt() function in net/sched/cls_flower.c in Linux kernel. A local user can trigger an out-of-bounds write and execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges.
4) Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-44730)
The disclosed vulnerability allows a remote user to perform SSRF attacks.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input when parsing SVG images. A remote user can upload a malicious SVG image and trick the application to initiate requests to arbitrary systems.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow a remote attacker gain access to sensitive data, located in the local network or send malicious requests to other servers from the vulnerable system.
5) Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-44729)
The disclosed vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform SSRF attacks.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted HTTP request and trick the application to initiate requests to arbitrary systems.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow a remote attacker gain access to sensitive data, located in the local network or send malicious requests to other servers from the vulnerable system.
6) Cryptographic issues (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-20900)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform MitM attack.
The vulnerability exists due to improper verification of SAML token signature. A remote attacker can bypass SAML token signature verification and perform man-in-the-middle (MITM) network positioning between vCenter server and the virtual machine.
7) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-3341)
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 when handling control channel messages . A remote attacker can trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
8) Incorrect authorization (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-3899)
The vulnerability allows a local user to escalate privileges on the system.
The vulnerability exists due to incorrect authorization caused by D-Bus interface com.redhat.RHSM1 that exposes a significant number of methods to all users. A local user can abuse the com.redhat.RHSM1.Config.SetAll() method to change the state of the registration and escalate privileges on the system.
9) Cross-site scripting (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-43057)
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.
