IT44183: IBM STORAGE INSIGHTS SECURITY APAR FOR CVE-2022-4304, CVE-2023-0215, CVE-2023-0286, CVE-2023-0466, CVE-2023-0465, CVE-2023-0464

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• CVEID: CVE-2022-4304
  Description: OpenSSL could allow a remote attacker to obtain
  sensitive information, caused by a timing-based side channel in
  the RSA Decryption implementation. By sending an overly large
  number of trial messages for decryption, an attacker could
  exploit this vulnerability to obtain sensitive information.
  
  CVEID: CVE-2023-0215
  Description: OpenSSL is vulnerable to a denial of service,
  caused by a use-after-free error related to the incorrect
  handling of streaming ASN.1 data by the BIO_new_NDEF function. A
  remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to cause a
  denial of service.
  
  CVEID: CVE-2023-0286
  Description: OpenSSL is vulnerable to a denial of service,
  caused by a type confusion error related to X.400 address
  processing inside an X.509 GeneralName. By passing arbitrary
  pointers to a memcmp call, a remote attacker could exploit this
  vulnerability to read memory contents or cause a denial of
  service.
  
  CVEs: (details as of the time of ADV creation)
  CVEID: CVE-2023-0466
  Description: OpenSSL could allow a remote attacker to bypass
  security restrictions, caused by a flaw in the
  X509_VERIFY_PARAM_add0_policy function. By using invalid
  certificate policies, an attacker could exploit this
  vulnerability to bypass certificate verification.
  
  CVEID: CVE-2023-0465
  Description: OpenSSL could allow a remote attacker to bypass
  security restrictions, caused by a flaw when using a non-default
  option to verify certificates. By using invalid certificate
  policies in leaf certificates, an attacker could exploit this
  vulnerability to bypass policy checking.
  
  CVEID: CVE-2023-0464
  Description: OpenSSL is vulnerable to a denial of service,
  caused by an error related to the verification of X.509
  certificate chains that include policy constraints. By creating
  a specially crafted certificate chain that triggers exponential
  use of computational resources, a remote attacker could exploit
  this vulnerability to cause a denial of service.
