Security Bulletin: Vulnerabilities in MongoDB might affect IBM Storage Copy Data Management

Security Bulletin


Summary

IBM Storage Copy Data Management can be affected by vulnerabilities in MongoDB. A remote authenticated attacker could exploit these vulnerabilities to cause the application to crash, to cause a resource depletion or generate high lock contention and result in a denial of service condition, to obtain sensitive information and use this information to launch further attacks against the affected system as described by the CVEs in the "Vulnerability Details" section

Vulnerability Details

CVEID:   CVE-2021-32036
DESCRIPTION:   MongoDB is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by improper authorizations validation. By sending a specially-crafted request to repeatedly invoke the features command, a remote authenticated attacker could exploit this vulnerability to cause a resource depletion or generate high lock contention, and results in a denial of service condition.
CVSS Base score: 5.4
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/220357 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:L)

CVEID:   CVE-2021-32040
DESCRIPTION:   MongoDB is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by a stack-based overflow flaw during a long aggregation pipeline in conjunction with a specific stage/operator. By sending a specially-crafted request, a remote authenticated attacker could exploit this vulnerability to cause a the application to crash.
CVSS Base score: 6.5
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/225119 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H)

CVEID:   CVE-2023-1409
DESCRIPTION:   MongoDB could allow a remote attacker to obtain sensitive information, caused by a flaw when configured to use TLS with a specific set of configuration options. By persuading a victim to connect to a specially crafted server, 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: 5.3
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/264345 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:R/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.
