IT44501: IBM STORAGE INSIGHTS SECURITY APAR FOR CVE-2023-30581, CVE-2023-30584, CVE-2023-30587

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• CVEID: CVE-2023-30581
  Description: Node.js could allow a remote attacker to bypass
  security restrictions, caused by the use of proto in
  process.mainModule.proto.require(). By sending a specially
  crafted request, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to
  bypass experimental policy mechanism.
  
  CVEID: CVE-2023-30584
  Description: Node.js could allow a remote attacker to bypass
  security restrictions, caused by a path traversal bypass when
  verifying file permissions. By sending a specially crafted
  request, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to bypass
  the experimental permission model.
  
  CVEID: CVE-2023-30587
  Description: Node.js could allow a remote attacker to bypass
  security restrictions. By exploiting the Worker class's
  ability to create an "internal worker" with the
  kIsInternal Symbol, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability
  to modify the isInternal value when an inspector is attached
  within the Worker constructor before initializing a new
  WorkerImpl.
