Description

This security bulletin contains information about 33 secuirty vulnerabilities.


1) 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.


2) Insufficient Session Expiration (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-34428)

The vulnerability allows an attacker to gain access to sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient session expiration issue. If an exception is thrown from the SessionListener#sessionDestroyed() method, then the session ID is not invalidated in the session ID manager. On deployments with clustered sessions and multiple contexts this can result in a session not being invalidated.


3) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-26049)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient input validation when parsing cookies. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted HTTP request with a cookie value that starts with a double quote and force the application to read the cookie string until it sees a closing quote. Such behavior can be used to exfiltrate sensitive values from other cookies.


4) 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.

A remote attacker can pass specially crafted input to the application and bypass implemented security restrictions, as the Jetty's HttpClient, and Jetty's ProxyServlet / AsyncProxyServlet / AsyncMiddleManServlet will wrongly interpret an authority of such URI as the one with a hostname.


6) Improper input validation (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-27218)

The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to manipulate or delete data.

The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation within the SC Admin server (Eclipse Jetty) component in Oracle Communications Converged Application Server - Service Controller. A remote non-authenticated attacker can exploit this vulnerability to manipulate or delete data.


7) Improper resource shutdown or release (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-13009)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass implemented security restrictions.
