Security Bulletin: Multiple vulnerabilities in Golang Go affect IBM Storage Copy Data Management components that leverage Go

Security Bulletin


Summary

Multiple vulnerabilities in Golang Go affect IBM Storage Copy Data Management components that leverage Go (essentially VADP 'VM' backup). Vulnerabilities including execution of arbitrary code on the system, remote attacker can cause an infinite loop, as described by the CVEs in the "Vulnerability Details" section. The vulnerabilities have been addressed. CVE-2024-24787, CVE-2024-24788.

Vulnerability Details

CVEID:   CVE-2024-24787
DESCRIPTION:   Golang Go could allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the system, caused by a flaw during build on darwin. By building a Go module contains CGO, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code on the system.
CVSS Base score: 9.8
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/290106 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H)

CVEID:   CVE-2024-24788
DESCRIPTION:   Golang Go is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by a high cpu usage in extractExtendedRCode function in the net module. By sending a specially crafted DNS message in response to a query, a remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to cause an infinite loop.
CVSS Base score: 7.5
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/290108 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N)

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.
