Vulnerability Details
CVEID: CVE-2020-8169
DESCRIPTION: cURL libcurl could allow a remote attacker to obtain sensitive information, caused by the failure to correctly URL encode the credential data when set using an curl_easy_setopt option. The host name and partial password is leaked in cleartext over DNS on HTTP redirect. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability to obtain sensitive information.
CVSS Base score: 5.3
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/183930 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N)
CVEID: CVE-2020-8177
DESCRIPTION: cURL could allow a remote attacker to overwrite arbitrary files on the system, caused by the improper handling of certain parameters when using -J (--remote-header-name) and -I (--include) in the same command line. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability to overwrite a local file.
CVSS Base score: 5.3
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/183931 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-2020-8231
DESCRIPTION: cURL libcurl could allow a remote attacker to obtain sensitive information, caused by the improper handling of the CURLOPT_CONNECT_ONLY option. The raw data is sent over that connection to the wrong destination. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability to obtain sensitive information.
CVSS Base score: 5.3
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/186954 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N)
CVEID: CVE-2020-8285
DESCRIPTION: cURL libcurl is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by a stack-based buffer overflow in the wildcard matching function. By sending a specially-crafted request, a remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to cause the application to crash.
CVSS Base score: 7.5
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/192855 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-2020-8286
DESCRIPTION: cURL libcurl could allow a remote attacker to bypass security restrictions, caused by improper OCSP response verification. By sending a specially-crafted request, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to breach a TLS server.
CVSS Base score: 7.5
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/192856 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N)
CVEID: CVE-2020-1967
DESCRIPTION: OpenSSL is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by a NULL pointer dereference. By passing specially crafted data to the SSL_check_chain() function during or after a TLS 1.3 handshake, a remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to cause server or client applications to crash.
CVSS Base score: 7.5
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/180181 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-2020-1971
DESCRIPTION: OpenSSL is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by a NULL pointer dereference. If the GENERAL_NAME_cmp function contain an EDIPARTYNAME, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to cause the application to crash.
CVSS Base score: 7.5
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/192748 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-2019-15847
DESCRIPTION: GNU Compiler Collection (GCC) could provide weaker than expected security, caused by a flaw in the POWER9 backend. A remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to launch further attacks on the system.
CVSS Base score: 7.3
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/166452 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:L)
CVEID: CVE-2020-28928
DESCRIPTION: musl libc is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by a destination buffer overflow in the wcsnrtombs function. By sending specially-crafted input, a local attacker could exploit this vulnerability to cause the application to enter into an infinite loop.
CVSS Base score: 6.2
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/192091 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-2020-11080
DESCRIPTION: Node.js is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by an error in the HTTP/2 session frame which is limited to 32 settings by default. By sending overly large HTTP/2 SETTINGS frames, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to consume all available CPU resources.
CVSS Base score: 3.7
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/182815 for the current score.
