Description
This security bulletin contains information about 12 secuirty vulnerabilities.
1) Information disclosure (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-23566)
The vulnerability allows a local attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to excessive data output by the application in the valueOf() function. A local attacker can gain unauthorized access to sensitive information on the system.
2) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-25031)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input. A remote attacker can trick the victim into opening a specially crafted URL to display remote OpenAPI definitions.
3) Command Injection (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-23337)
The vulnerability allows a remote user to execute arbitrary commands on the system.
The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation when processing templates. A remote privileged user can inject and execute arbitrary commands on the system.
4) Prototype pollution (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-16487)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation within the merge, mergeWith, and defaultsDeep functions. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted request and add or modify properties of Object.prototype.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of the affected application.
5) Prototype polution (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-8203)
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 when using _.zipObjectDeep in lodash. A remote attacker can inject and execute arbitrary script code.
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.
6) Code Injection (CVE-ID: CVE-2019-10744)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to modify properties on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation in the "defaultsDeep" function. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted request and modify the prototype of "Object" via "{constructor: {prototype: {...}}}" causing the addition or modification of an existing property that will exist on all objects.
7) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2019-1010266)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to the software does not properly parse user-supplied input in the Date Handler component. A remote authenticated attacker can send long strings that submit malicious input, which the library attempts to match using a regular expression and consume excessive amounts of CPU resources and cause a DoS condition.
8) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-3721)
The vulnerability allows a remote authenticated user to manipulate data.
lodash node module before 4.17.5 suffers from a Modification of Assumed-Immutable Data (MAID) vulnerability via defaultsDeep, merge, and mergeWith functions, which allows a malicious user to modify the prototype of "Object" via __proto__, causing the addition or modification of an existing property that will exist on all objects.
9) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-3807)
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 matching crafted invalid ANSI escape codes in ansi-regex. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted input to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
10) Incorrect Regular Expression (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-23343)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient input validation in splitDeviceRe, splitTailRe, and splitPathRe regular expressions. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application and perform regular expression denial of service (ReDos) attack.
11) Prototype pollution (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-15366)
The disclosed vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient sanitization of user-supplied data. A remote attacker can inject and execute arbitrary script code.
12) Improper Restriction of Rendered UI Layers or Frames (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-46708)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input. A remote attacker can trick the victim into opening a specially crafted URL to hijack the victim's click actions and possibly launch further attacks against the victim.
