Description
This security bulletin contains information about 5 secuirty vulnerabilities.
1) 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.
2) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-28863)
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 while parsing a tar file. A remote attacker can trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
3) Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-6763)
The disclosed vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform SSRF attacks.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input in HttpURI. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted HTTP request and trick the application to initiate requests to arbitrary systems.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow a remote attacker gain access to sensitive data, located in the local network or send malicious requests to other servers from the vulnerable system.
4) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-8184)
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 within the ThreadLimitHandler.getRemote() function. A remote attacker can trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
5) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-52428)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to improper validation of user requests by the PasswordBasedDecrypter (PBKDF2) component. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted request using a large JWE p2c header, trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
