Description

This security bulletin contains information about 5 secuirty vulnerabilities.


1) Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-4130)

The disclosed vulnerability allows a remote user to perform SSRF attacks.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of HTTP Referer header at "/locations/clear". A remote authenticated user 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.


2) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-0809)

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. A remote attacker can send malicious initial packets that are not CONNECT packets, trigger memory exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


3) Memory leak (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-28366)

The vulnerability allows a remote user to perform DoS attack on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due memory leak in broker. A remote client can send multiple QoS 2 messages with the same message ID, but then never respond to the PUBREC commands, which results in memory leak and denial of service condition.


4) Memory leak (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-3592)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform DoS attack on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due memory leak when processing v5 CONNECT packets. A remote attacker can force the application to leak memory by sending messages with invalid property types.


5) Incorrect default permissions (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-4886)

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

The vulnerability exists due to software sets world readable permissions to file /etc/tomcat/server.xml, which contains passwords to candlepin's keystore and truststore. A local user can gain access to sensitive information.
