Security Bulletin
Summary
Vulnerabilities in Node.js such as elevation of privileges, HTTP request smuggling, bypassing security restrictions, and execution of arbitrary code may affect IBM Spectrum Protect Plus.
Vulnerability Details
CVEID: CVE-2022-32223
DESCRIPTION: Node.js could allow a local attacker to gain elevated privileges on the system, caused by the DLL search order hijacking of providers.dll. By placing a specially crafted file, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to escalate privileges.
CVSS Base score: 8.4
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/230661 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H)
CVEID: CVE-2022-32215
DESCRIPTION: Node.js is vulnerable to HTTP request smuggling, caused by the failure to correctly handle multi-line Transfer-Encoding headers by the llhttp parser in the http module. A remote attacker could send a specially-crafted request to lead to HTTP Request Smuggling (HRS). An attacker could exploit this vulnerability to poison the web cache, bypass web application firewall protection, and conduct XSS attacks.
CVSS Base score: 6.5
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/230659 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:N)
CVEID: CVE-2022-33987
DESCRIPTION: Node.js got module could allow a remote attacker to bypass security restrictions, caused by an unspecified. By sending a specially-crafted request, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to perform a redirect to a UNIX socket.
CVSS Base score: 5.3
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/229246 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N)
CVEID: CVE-2022-32213
DESCRIPTION: Node.js is vulnerable to HTTP request smuggling, caused by the failure to correctly parse and validate Transfer-Encoding headers by the llhttp parser in the http module. A remote attacker could send a specially-crafted request to lead to HTTP Request Smuggling (HRS). An attacker could exploit this vulnerability to poison the web cache, bypass web application firewall protection, and conduct XSS attacks.
CVSS Base score: 6.5
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/230657 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:N)
CVEID: CVE-2022-32212
DESCRIPTION: Node.js could allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the system, caused by the failure to properly check if an IP address is invalid or not by IsIPAddress. By controlling the victim's DNS server or spoofing its responses, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to bypass the IsAllowedHost check and execute arbitrary code on the system.
CVSS Base score: 7.3
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/230660 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:L)
CVEID: CVE-2022-32222
DESCRIPTION: Node.js could allow a remote attacker to bypass security restrictions. By attempting to read openssl.cnf from /home/iojs/build/ upon startup, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to create this file and affect the default OpenSSL configuration for other users.
CVSS Base score: 5.3
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/230662 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N)
CVEID: CVE-2022-32214
DESCRIPTION: Node.js is vulnerable to HTTP request smuggling, caused by the failure to strictly use the CRLF sequence to delimit HTTP requests by the llhttp parser in the http module. A remote attacker could send a specially-crafted request to lead to HTTP Request Smuggling (HRS). An attacker could exploit this vulnerability to poison the web cache, bypass web application firewall protection, and conduct XSS attacks.
CVSS Base score: 6.5
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/230658 for the current score.
