Description

This security bulletin contains information about 6 secuirty vulnerabilities.


1) 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.


2) 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.


3) 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.


4) 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.


5) Integer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-10917)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass security restrictions.

The vulnerability exists due to return of an incorrect value which has wrapped around by the JNI function GetStringUTFLength. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application, trigger integer overflow and bypass security restrictions.


6) Out-of-bounds write (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-9143)

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

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error when using the low-level GF(2^m) elliptic curve APIs with untrusted explicit values for the field polynomial. A remote attacker can send specially crafted input to the server, trigger an out-of-bounds write and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

Note, the vulnerability can be exploited against the application in rare cases only that involve "exotic" curve encoding.
