Vulnerability Details

CVEID:   CVE-2024-4067
DESCRIPTION:   Node.js micromatch module is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by a regular expression denial of service (ReDoS) flaw in micromatch.braces() in index.js. By sending a specially crafted payload, a remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to increase the consumption time until the application hangs or slows down.
CVSS Base score: 7.5
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/290676 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-2024-4603
DESCRIPTION:   OpenSSL is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by improper input validation by the EVP_PKEY_param_check() or EVP_PKEY_public_check() function. By parsing a specially crafted DSA public key or DSA parameters, a remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to cause long delays, and results in a denial of service condition.
CVSS Base score: 3.7
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/290839 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:L)

CVEID:   CVE-2024-2466
DESCRIPTION:   cURL libcurl could allow a remote attacker to bypass security restrictions, caused by a flaw when built to use mbedTLS. By sending a specially crafted request, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to bypass TLS certificate check.
CVSS Base score: 5.3
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/286431 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-2024-4068
DESCRIPTION:   Node.js braces module is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by the failure to limit the number of characters it can handle. leading to a memory exhaustion in lib/parse.js. By sending imbalanced braces as input, the parsing will enter a loop causing the JavaScript heap limit to be reached, and the program will crash.
CVSS Base score: 7.5
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/290675 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-2024-4741
DESCRIPTION:   OpenSSL could allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the system, caused by a use-after-free flaw in the SSL_free_buffers API function . By sending a specially crafted request, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service condition.
CVSS Base score: 8.1
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/292512 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H)

CVEID:   CVE-2024-2379
DESCRIPTION:   cURL libcurl could allow a remote attacker to bypass security restrictions, caused by a flaw when wolfSSL library was built with the OPENSSL_COMPATIBLE_DEFAULTS symbol set. By sending a specially-crafted request, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to bypass certificate verification for a QUIC connection.
CVSS Base score: 3.7
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/286429 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N)

CVEID:   CVE-2024-2004
DESCRIPTION:   cURL libcurl could allow a local attacker to bypass security restrictions, caused by a lfaw in the logic for removing protocols. By sending a specially crafted request, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to use the disabled set of protocols.
CVSS Base score: 3.7
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/286427 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N)

CVEID:   CVE-2024-2511
DESCRIPTION:   OpenSSL is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by improper server configuration validation. By using a specially crafted server configuration, a remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to cause unbounded memory growth, and results in a denial of service condition.
CVSS Base score: 3.7
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/287215 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:L)

CVEID:   CVE-2024-2398
DESCRIPTION:   cURL libcurl is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by a memory leak when allowing HTTP/2 server push. By sending a specially crafted PUSH_PROMISE frames with an excessive amount of headers, a remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to cause a denial of service condition.
CVSS Base score: 5.3
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/286430 for the current score.

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.
