Description

This security bulletin contains information about 8 secuirty vulnerabilities.


1) Improper input validation (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-21094)

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 GraalVM Enterprise Edition. A remote non-authenticated attacker can exploit this vulnerability to manipulate data.


2) Improper input validation (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-21085)

The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to perform service disruption.

The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation within the Concurrency component in Oracle GraalVM Enterprise Edition. A remote non-authenticated attacker can exploit this vulnerability to perform service disruption.


3) Improper input validation (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-21011)

The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to perform service disruption.

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 perform service disruption.


4) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-38264)

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 trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


5) Infinite loop (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-30172)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to infinite loop in the Ed25519 verification code. A remote attacker can pass a specially signature and public key to the application, consume all available system resources and cause denial of service conditions.


6) Observable discrepancy (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-30171)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to a possible timing based leakage in RSA based handshakes. A remote attacker can gain access to sensitive information.


7) Insufficient verification of data authenticity (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-34447)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass implemented security restrictions.

The vulnerability exists due to hostname verification is performed against a DNS-resolved IP address when endpoint identification is enabled in the BCJSSE and an SSL socket is not created with an explicit hostname. A remote attacker can bypass implemented security restrictions.


8) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-29857)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to library does not properly control consumption of internal resources when importing an EC certificate with specially crafted F2m parameters. A remote attacker can pass a specially crafted certificate to the application to trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
