1) Path traversal (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-38816)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform directory traversal attacks.

The vulnerability exists due to input validation error when processing directory traversal sequences in applications serving static resources through the functional web frameworks WebMvc.fn or WebFlux.fn. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted HTTP request and read arbitrary files on the system.

Specifically, an application is vulnerable when both of the following are true:

  • the web application uses RouterFunctions</code> to serve static resources</li><li>resource handling is explicitly configured with a <code>FileSystemResource location


2) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-38808)

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 evaluating user-supplied SpEL expression. A remote attacker can trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


3) Improper locking (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-35952)

The vulnerability allows a local user to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to improper locking within the ast_dp_set_on_off() function in drivers/gpu/drm/ast/ast_dp.c. A local user can perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
