Security Bulletin


Summary

Cloud Pak System is vulnerable to multiple vulnerabilities in Golang Go. The fix removes these vulnerablities in IBM Cloud Pak System.

Vulnerability Details

CVEID:   CVE-2022-32148
DESCRIPTION:   Golang Go could allow a remote attacker to obtain sensitive information, caused by improper exposure of client IP addresses in net/http. By calling httputil.ReverseProxy.ServeHTTP with a Request.Header map containing a nil value for the X-Forwarded-For header, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to obtain the client IP address information, and use this information to launch further attacks against the affected system.
CVSS Base score: 7.5
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/233148 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-2022-29804
DESCRIPTION:   Golang Go could allow a local attacker to bypass security restrictions, caused by a flaw in the filepath.Clean function. By sending a specially-crafted request, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to convert an invalid path to a valid, absolute path.
CVSS Base score: 6.2
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/229857 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N)

CVEID:   CVE-2022-30632
DESCRIPTION:   Golang Go is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by an uncontrolled recursion flaw in Glob in path/filepath due to stack exhaustion. By sending a specially-crafted request using a path containing a large number of path separators, 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/233145 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-2022-30629
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.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N)

CVEID:   CVE-2022-1962
DESCRIPTION:   Golang Go is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by a stack exhaustion flaw in all Parse* functions. By sending a specially-crafted request, a local attacker could exploit this vulnerability to cause a panic, and results in a denial of service condition.
CVSS Base score: 6.2
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/232543 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H)

CVEID:   CVE-2022-27664
DESCRIPTION:   Golang Go is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by a flaw in net/http. By sending a specially-crafted request, a remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to cause a closing HTTP/2 server connection to hang, and results in a denial of service condition.
CVSS Base score: 7.5
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/235355 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-2022-28131
DESCRIPTION:   Golang Go is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by an uncontrolled recursion flaw in Decoder.Skip 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

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.
