Vulnerability Details

CVEID:   CVE-2020-19909
DESCRIPTION:   cURL libcurl is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by an integer overflow in tool_operate.c. By sending a specially crafted request, a local authenticated attacker could exploit this vulnerability to cause a denial of service condition.
CVSS Base score: 3.3
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/266309 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:L)

CVEID:   CVE-2023-38546
DESCRIPTION:   cURL libcurl could allow a remote attacker to bypass security restrictions, caused by a flaw in the curl_easy_duphandle function if a transfer has cookies enabled when the handle is duplicated. By sending a specially crafted request, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to insert cookies at will into a running program.
CVSS Base score: 3.7
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/268046 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-2023-38545
DESCRIPTION:   libcurl and cURL are vulnerable to a heap-based buffer overflow, caused by the improper handling of hostnames longer than 255 bytes during a slow SOCKS5 proxy handshake. By sending an overly long argument, a remote attacker could overflow a buffer and execute arbitrary code on the system.
CVSS Base score: 8.1
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/268045 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-2023-45133
DESCRIPTION:   Babel could allow a local attacker to execute arbitrary code on the system, caused by a flaw in the path.evaluate()or path.evaluateTruthy(). By using a specially crafted code to compile, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code on the system.
CVSS Base score: 8.8
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/268647 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H)

CVEID:   CVE-2023-5678
DESCRIPTION:   Openssl is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by a flaw when using DH_generate_key() function to generate an X9.42 DH key. By sending a specially crafted request, a remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to cause a denial of service condition.
CVSS Base score: 3.7

CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:L)

CVEID:   CVE-2023-46218
DESCRIPTION:   cURL libcurl could allow a remote attacker to bypass security restrictions, caused by a mixed case flaw when curl is built without PSL support. By sending a specially crafted request, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to allow a HTTP server to set "super cookies" in curl.
CVSS Base score: 6.5
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/273320 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:N)

CVEID:   CVE-2023-46219
DESCRIPTION:   cURL libcurl could allow a remote attacker to bypass security restrictions, caused by a flaw when saving HSTS data to an excessively long file name. By sending a specially crafted request, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to use files that unaware of the HSTS status.
CVSS Base score: 3.7
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/273321 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-2023-4807
DESCRIPTION:   OpenSSL is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by a state corruption flaw in the POLY1305 MAC (message authentication code) implementation, when running on newer X86_64 processors supporting the AVX512-IFMA instructions. A local authenticated attacker could exploit this vulnerability to cause an incorrect result of some application dependent calculations or a crash or in some cases gain complete control of the application process.
CVSS Base score: 7.8
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/265578 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H)

CVEID:   CVE-2024-0727
DESCRIPTION:   OpenSSL is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by improper input validation. By persuading a victim to open a specially crafted PKCS12 file, a remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to cause the application to crash.
CVSS Base score: 3.1
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/280532 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:L)

CVEID:   CVE-2023-6129
DESCRIPTION:   OpenSSL is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by a flaw in the POLY1305 MAC (message authentication code) implementation. By sending a specially crafted request, a remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to cause a denial of service condition.
CVSS Base score: 5.9
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/278934 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H)

CVEID:   CVE-2023-5363
DESCRIPTION:   OpenSSL could allow a remote attacker to obtain sensitive information, caused by an incorrect cipher key and IV length processing during the initialisation of some symmetric ciphers. By sending a specially crafted request, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to obtain sensitive information, and use this information to launch further attacks against the affected system.
CVSS Base score: 5.9
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/269418 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.
