Vulnerability Details

CVEID:   CVE-2023-48795
DESCRIPTION:   OpenSSH is vulnerable to a machine-in-the-middle attack, caused by a flaw in the extension negotiation process in the SSH transport protocol when used with certain OpenSSH extensions. A remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to launch a machine-in-the-middle attack and strip an arbitrary number of messages after the initial key exchange, breaking SSH extension negotiation and downgrading the client connection security.

DESCRIPTION:   python-requests could allow a remote attacker to obtain sensitive information, caused by the leaking of Proxy-Authorization headers to destination servers during redirects to an HTTPS origin. By persuading a victim to click on a specially crafted URL, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to obtain sensitive information.
CVSS Base score: 6.1
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/256114 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:H/I:N/A:N)

CVEID:   CVE-2024-26130
DESCRIPTION:   cryptography is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by a NULL pointer dereference in the pkcs12.serialize_key_and_certificates process. By sending a specially crafted request, a remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to cause a denial of service.

Disclaimer

According to the Forum of Incident Response and Security Teams (FIRST), the Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) is an "industry open standard designed to convey vulnerability severity and help to determine urgency and priority of response." IBM PROVIDES THE CVSS SCORES ""AS IS"" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, INCLUDING THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. CUSTOMERS ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR ASSESSING THE IMPACT OF ANY ACTUAL OR POTENTIAL SECURITY VULNERABILITY. In addition to other efforts to address potential vulnerabilities, IBM periodically updates the record of components contained in our product offerings. As part of that effort, if IBM identifies previously unidentified packages in a product/service inventory, we address relevant vulnerabilities regardless of CVE date. Inclusion of an older CVEID does not demonstrate that the referenced product has been used by IBM since that date, nor that IBM was aware of a vulnerability as of that date. We are making clients aware of relevant vulnerabilities as we become aware of them. "Affected Products and Versions" referenced in IBM Security Bulletins are intended to be only products and versions that are supported by IBM and have not passed their end-of-support or warranty date. Thus, failure to reference unsupported or extended-support products and versions in this Security Bulletin does not constitute a determination by IBM that they are unaffected by the vulnerability. Reference to one or more unsupported versions in this Security Bulletin shall not create an obligation for IBM to provide fixes for any unsupported or extended-support products or versions.
