Description
This security bulletin contains information about 5 secuirty vulnerabilities.
1) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-4741)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error within the SSL_free_buffers() function. A remote attacker can trigger a use-after-free error and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
Note, the vulnerability affects only applications that call the vulnerable function.
2) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-2511)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to unbounded memory growth when processing TLSv1.3 sessions. A remote attacker can trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
Successful exploitation of the vulnerability requires that the non-default SSL_OP_NO_TICKET option is being used in TLSv1.3.
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) Resource management error (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-4603)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to improper management of internal resources within the application when checking DSA keys and parameters. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
5) Type Confusion (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-6119)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to a type confusion error when performing certificate name checks. A remote attacker can supply a specially crafted X.509 certificate to the server, trigger a type confusion error and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
