3) Stack-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-28331)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error within the apr_socket_sendv() function. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted input to the application, trigger a stack-based buffer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
Note, the vulnerability affects Windows installations only.
4) Incorrect Regular Expression (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-25927)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient input validation passed via the trim() function. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application and perform regular expression denial of service (ReDos) attack.
5) Uncontrolled Recursion (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-7254)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation when parsing nested groups as unknown fields with DiscardUnknownFieldsParser or Java Protobuf Lite parser, or against Protobuf map fields. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted input to the application to create unbounded recursions and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
6) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-26308)
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 memory when unpacking a broken Pack200 file. A remote attacker can trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
7) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-28182)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to reading the unbounded number of HTTP/2 CONTINUATION frames. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted input to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
8) NULL pointer dereference (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-33600)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to a NULL pointer dereference error when nscd cache fails to add a not-found netgroup response to the cache. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
9) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-37370)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass implemented security restrictions.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input. A remote attacker can modify the plaintext Extra Count field of a confidential GSS krb5 wrap token, causing the unwrapped token to appear truncated to the application.
10) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-37371)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary condition when handling GSS message token. A remote attacker can send specially crafted token to the application, trigger an out-of-bounds read error and read contents of memory on the system.
11) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-33602)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to netgroup cache assumes NSS callback is using in-buffer strings in nscd binary. A remote attacker can trigger memory corruption and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
12) Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-33601)
The vulnerability allows a local user to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The
vulnerability exists due to the Name Service Cache Daemon (nscd) can terminate the service during its startup. A local use can perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
13) Stack-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-33599)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error in nscd binary. A remote unauthenticated attacker can exhaust the nscd fixed size cache to trigger a stack-based buffer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
14) Infinite loop (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-25710)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to infinite loop when processing a corrupt DUMP file. A remote attacker can consume all available system resources and cause denial of service conditions.
15) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-28835)
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 parsing the cert_list_size parameter in the gnutls_x509_trust_list_verify_crt2() function in certtool. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted PEM encoded certificate chain that contains more than 16 certificates to the certtool and crash it.
16) Missing Release of Resource after Effective Lifetime (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-2398)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to an error when sending HTTP/2 server push responses with an overly large number of headers. A remote attacker can send PUSH_PROMISE frames with an excessive amount of headers to the application, trigger memory leak and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
17) Insufficient verification of data authenticity (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-34397)
The vulnerability allows a local user to escalate privileges on the system.
The vulnerability exists due to missing authorization for D-Bus signals. When a GDBus-based client subscribes to signals from a trusted system service such as NetworkManager on a shared computer, other users of the same computer can send spoofed D-Bus signals that the GDBus-based client will wrongly interpret as having been sent by the trusted system service.
18) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-48554)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary condition within the file_copystr() function in funcs.c. A remote attacker can create a specially crafted file, trick the victim into opening it, trigger an out-of-bounds read error and crash the application.
19) Cryptographic issues (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-28834)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform MitM attack.
The vulnerability exists due to a side-channel attack when using the gnutls_privkey_sign_data2 API function with the "GNUTLS_PRIVKEY_FLAG_REPRODUCIBLE" flag. A remote attacker can launch Minerva attack and gain access to sensitive information.
20) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-2961)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error within the iconv() function when converting string to the ISO-2022-CN-EXT character set. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted input to the application, trigger a 4 byte buffer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
21) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-25062)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise vulnerable system.
The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error in xmlValidatePopElement when using the XML Reader interface with DTD validation and XInclude expansion enabled. A remote attacker can pass a specially crafted XML document to the application, trigger a use-after-free error and execute arbitrary code on the system.
Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may allow an attacker to compromise vulnerable system.
