Description
This security bulletin contains information about 14 secuirty vulnerabilities.
1) Security features bypass (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-38820)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass implemented security restrictions.
The vulnerability exists due to String.toLowerCase() has some Locale dependent exceptions when handling case insensitive patterns in DataBinder. A remote attacker can bypass implemented security restrictions by passing specially crafted data to the application.
2) NULL pointer dereference (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-7006)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to a NULL pointer dereference error in tif_dirinfo.c. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
3) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-5535)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary condition within the SSL_select_next_proto() function when using NPN. A remote attacker can send specially crafted data to the application, trigger an out-of-bounds read and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
4) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-47175)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to ppdCreatePPDFromIPP2 does not sanitize IPP attributes when creating the PPD buffer. A remote attacker can inject attacker-controlled data in the resulting PPD.
5) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-0450)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to the zipfile module does not properly control consumption of internal resources when extracting files from a zip archive. A remote attacker can pass a specially crafted archive aka zip-bomb to the application, trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
6) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-48949)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass implemented security restrictions.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input within the verify() function in lib/elliptic/eddsa/index.js. A remote attacker can send specially crafted input to the application and bypass implemented security restrictions.
7) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-47764)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass implemented security restrictions.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied cookies. A remote attacker can pass a specially crafted cookie to the application and alter values passed to the application.
8) Improper input validation (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-21235)
The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to read and manipulate data.
The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation within the Hotspot component in Oracle GraalVM Enterprise Edition. A remote non-authenticated attacker can exploit this vulnerability to read and manipulate data.
9) Improper input validation (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-21217)
The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to perform service disruption.
The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation within the Serialization component in Oracle GraalVM Enterprise Edition. A remote non-authenticated attacker can exploit this vulnerability to perform service disruption.
10) Improper input validation (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-21210)
The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to manipulate data.
The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation within the Hotspot component in Oracle Java SE. A remote non-authenticated attacker can exploit this vulnerability to manipulate data.
11) Improper input validation (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-21208)
The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to perform service disruption.
The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation within the Networking component in Oracle GraalVM Enterprise Edition. A remote non-authenticated attacker can exploit this vulnerability to perform service disruption.
12) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-48161)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary condition within the DumpSCreen2RGB() function in gif2rgb.c. A remote attacker can create a specially crafted file, trick the victim into opening it, trigger an out-of-bounds read error and read contents of memory on the system.
13) Improper error handling (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-21536)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to an UnhandledPromiseRejection error thrown by micromatch. A remote non-authenticated attacker can send specially crafted request to the application and crash the Node.js process.
14) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-47554)
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 untrusted input passed to the org.apache.commons.io.input.XmlStreamReader class. A remote attacker can trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
