Security Bulletin


Summary

Apache Log4j is used by IBM Telco Network Cloud Manager - Performance for logging and is vulnerable to arbitrary code execution due to Apache Log4j (CVE-2021-44832,CVE-2022-23302 and CVE-2022-23305). The fix includes Apache Log4j v2.17.1.

Vulnerability Details

CVEID:   CVE-2021-44832
DESCRIPTION:   Apache Log4j could allow a remote attacker with permission to modify the logging configuration file to execute arbitrary code on the system. By constructing a malicious configuration using a JDBC Appender with a data source referencing a JNDI URI , an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to execute remote code.
CVSS Base score: 6.6
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/216189 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:H/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H)

CVEID:   CVE-2022-23305
DESCRIPTION:   Apache Log4j is vulnerable to SQL injection. A remote attacker could send specially-crafted SQL statements to the JDBCAppender, which could allow the attacker to view, add, modify or delete information in the back-end database.
CVSS Base score: 6.5
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/217461 for the current score.

CVEID:   CVE-2022-23302
DESCRIPTION:   Apache Log4j could allow a remote authenticated attacker to execute arbitrary code on the system, caused by an unsafe deserialization in JMSSink. By sending specially-crafted JNDI requests using TopicConnectionFactoryBindingName configuration, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code on the system.
CVSS Base score: 8.8
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/217460 for the current score.
