Summary
Multiple vulnerabilities were remediated in IBM Observability with Instana using third-party Kubernetes Operators build 283
Vulnerability Details
CVEID: CVE-2024-35195
DESCRIPTION: Psf Requests could allow a local authenticated attacker to bypass security restrictions, caused by an incorrect control flow implementation vulnerability. If the first request in a session is made with verify=False, all subsequent requests to the same host will continue to ignore cert verification. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability to launch further attacks on the system.

CVSS Base score: 5.6
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:H/PR:H/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N)
CVEID: CVE-2023-44981
DESCRIPTION: Apache ZooKeeper could allow a remote attacker to bypass security restrictions, caused by a flaw when SASL Quorum Peer authentication is enabled. By sending a specially crafted request, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to bypass authorization and allow arbitrary endpoints to join the cluster and begin propagating counterfeit changes.
CWE: CWE-639: Authorization Bypass Through User-Controlled Key

CVEID: CVE-2024-35255
DESCRIPTION: Microsoft Azure Identity Libraries and Microsoft Authentication Library could allow a local authenticated attacker to gain elevated privileges on the system. By sending a specially crafted request, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to elevate privileges and read any file on the file system with SYSTEM access permissions.
CWE: CWE-362: Concurrent Execution using Shared Resource with Improper Synchronization ('Race Condition')
CVSS Source: IBM X-Force
CVSS Base score: 5.5
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N)
CVEID: CVE-2023-51775
DESCRIPTION: jose4j is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by improper input validation. By sending a specially crafted p2c value, a remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to cause a denial of service condition.

CVSS Source: IBM X-Force
CVSS Base score: 7.5
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H)
CVEID: CVE-2023-39325
DESCRIPTION: Golang Go is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by an uncontrolled resource consumption flaw in the net/http and x/net/http2 packages. By sending specially crafted requests using HTTP/2 client, a remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to cause a denial of service condition.
CWE: CWE-400: Uncontrolled Resource Consumption
CVSS Source: IBM X-Force
CVSS Base score: 7.5
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H)
CVEID: CVE-2023-43642
DESCRIPTION: snappy-java is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by missing upper bound check on chunk length. By sending a specially crafted request, a remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to cause a denial of service condition.
CWE: CWE-770: Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling
CVSS Source: IBM X-Force
CVSS Base score: 7.5
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H)
CVEID: CVE-2023-44483
DESCRIPTION: Apache Santuario could allow a remote authenticated attacker to obtain sensitive information, caused by the storage of a private key in the log files when using the JSR 105 API. By gaining access to the log files, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to obtain the private key information, and use this information to launch further attacks against the affected system.
CWE: CWE-532: Insertion of Sensitive Information into Log File
CVSS Source: IBM X-Force
CVSS Base score: 6.5
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N)
CVEID: CVE-2021-40690
DESCRIPTION: Apache Santuario XML Security for Java could allow a remote attacker to bypass security restrictions, caused by the improper passing of the "secureValidation" property when creating a KeyInfo from a KeyInfoReference element. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability to abuse an XPath Transform to extract any local .xml files in a RetrievalMethod element.
CWE: CWE-287: Improper Authentication
CVSS Source: IBM X-Force
CVSS Base score: 5.3

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.
