SB20251022150 - Multiple vulnerabilities in Oracle Solaris Cluster

Description

This security bulletin contains information about 5 secuirty vulnerabilities.

1) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-47554)

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 handling untrusted input passed to the org.apache.commons.io.input.XmlStreamReader class. A remote attacker can trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

2) Incorrect default permissions (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-17521)

The vulnerability allows a local user to escalate privileges on the system.

The vulnerability exists due to incorrect default permissions for temporary files and folders that are set by the application. A local user with access to the system can view contents of files and directories or modify them.

3) Resource management error (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-57699)

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 handling a specially crafted JSON input. A remote attacker can pass a large number of ’{’ characters to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

Note, the vulnerability exists due to incomplete fix for #VU75044 (CVE-2023-1370).

4) Path traversal (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-38819)

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 that serve 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.

5) Improper access control (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-48734)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain unauthorized access to otherwise restricted functionality.

The vulnerability exists due to improper access restrictions to enum properties. If an application using Commons BeanUtils passes property paths from an external source directly to the getProperty() method of PropertyUtilsBean, an attacker can access the enum’s class loader via the “declaredClass” property available on all Java “enum” objects. Accessing the enum’s “declaredClass” allows remote attackers to access the ClassLoader and execute arbitrary code. The same issue exists with PropertyUtilsBean.getNestedProperty().
