Security Bulletin
Summary
The IBM Spectrum Protect Server may be affected by vulnerabilities in IBM Db2, Golang Go, and Logback such as denial of service, HTTP request smuggling, obtaining sensitive information, and execution of arbitrary code.
Vulnerability Details
CVEID: CVE-2022-30631
DESCRIPTION: Golang Go is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by an uncontrolled recursion flaw in Reader.Read in compress/gzip due to stack exhaustion. By parsing a specially-crafted compressed file, a remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to cause a panic.
CVSS Base score: 7.5
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/233144 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H)
CVEID: CVE-2022-30633
DESCRIPTION: Golang Go is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by an uncontrolled recursion flaw in Unmarshal in encoding/xml due to stack exhaustion. By parsing a specially-crafted XML document, a remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to cause a panic.
CVSS Base score: 7.5
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/233146 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H)
CVEID: CVE-2022-1705
DESCRIPTION: Golang Go is vulnerable to HTTP request smuggling, caused by a flaw with accepting of some invalid Transfer-Encoding headers in the HTTP/1 client in net/http. By sending a specially-crafted HTTP(S) transfer-encoding request header, 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/233258 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-2022-22389
DESCRIPTION: IBM Db2 for Linux, UNIX and Windows 9.7, 10.1, 10.5, 11.1, and 11.5 is vulnerable to a denial of service as the server may terminate abnormally when executing specially crafted SQL statements by an authenticated user. IBM X-Force ID: 2219740.
CVSS Base score: 6.5
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/221970 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H)
CVEID: CVE-2022-22390
DESCRIPTION: IBM Db2 for Linux, UNIX and Windows 9.7, 10.1, 10.5, 11.1, and 11.5 may be vulnerable to an information disclosure caused by improper privilege management when table function is used. IBM X-Force ID: 221973.
CVSS Base score: 6.2
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/221973 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N)
CVEID: CVE-2021-42550
DESCRIPTION: Logback could allow a remote authenticated attacker to execute arbitrary code on the system. By using a specially-crafted configuration, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code loaded from LDAP servers.
CVSS Base score: 6.6
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/215533 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-2022-30629
DESCRIPTION: Golang Go could allow a remote attacker to obtain sensitive information, caused by an issue with session tickets generated by crypto/tls did not contain a randomly generated ticket_age_add. By comparing ticket ages during session resumption, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to observe TLS handshakes information to correlate successive connections.
CVSS Base score: 7.5
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/229859 for the current score.
