Security Bulletin
Summary
IBM Security Guardium has addressed the following vulnerabilities.
Vulnerability Details
CVEID: CVE-2022-24903
DESCRIPTION: rsyslog is vulnerable to a heap-based buffer overflow, caused by improper bounds checking by the TCP syslog server (receiver) components. By sending a specially-crafted request, a remote attacker could overflow a buffer and execute arbitrary code on the system.

CVEID: CVE-2020-12321
DESCRIPTION: Intel Wireless Bluetooth could allow a remote attacker to gain elevated privileges on the system, caused by improper buffer restriction. By sending a specially crafted-request, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to gain elevated privileges.
CVSS Base score: 9.6
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/191496 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:A/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H)
CVEID: CVE-2023-0286
DESCRIPTION: OpenSSL is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by a type confusion error related to X.400 address processing inside an X.509 GeneralName. By passing arbitrary pointers to a memcmp call, a remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to read memory contents or cause a denial of service.
CVSS Base score: 8.2
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/246611 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:H)
CVEID: CVE-2022-1271
DESCRIPTION: GNU gzip could allow a remote authenticated attacker to bypass security restrictions, caused by improper validation of file name by the zgrep utility. By using a specially-crafted file name, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to write arbitrary files or execute arbitrary code on the system.
CVSS Base score: 8.8
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/223754 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H)
CVEID: CVE-2022-43910
DESCRIPTION: IBM Security Guardium 11.3 could allow a local user to escalate their privileges due to improper permission controls. IBM X-Force ID: 240908.
CVSS Base score: 8.4
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/240908 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H)
CVEID: CVE-2022-4378
DESCRIPTION: Linux Kernel is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by a stack-based buffer overflow in the __do_proc_dointvec function. By executing a specially-crafted program, a local authenticated attacker could exploit this vulnerability to cause a denial of service condition.
CVSS Base score: 5.5
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/242006 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H)
CVEID: CVE-2022-37434
DESCRIPTION: zlib is vulnerable to a heap-based buffer overflow, caused by improper bounds checking by inflate in inflate.c. By using a large gzip header extra field, a remote attacker could overflow a buffer and execute arbitrary code on the system.
CVSS Base score: 7.3
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/232849 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.
