Security Bulletin: Vulnerabilities in Snappy, OpenSSL and cURL libcurl might affect IBM Storage Copy Data Management.

Security Bulletin


Summary

IBM Storage Copy Data Management can be affected by vulnerabilities in Snappy, OpenSSL and cURL libcurl. An attacker, a local attacker or a remote attacker could exploit these vulnerabilities to cause JVM to crash, to cause a crash or memory contents to be sent to the peer, to bypass certificate verification for a QUIC connection, to cause a denial of service condition, to bypass TLS certificate check and to use the disabled set of protocols as described by the CVEs in the "Vulnerability Details" section.

Vulnerability Details

CVEID:   CVE-2024-5535
DESCRIPTION:   OpenSSL is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by a buffer over-read flaw in the SSL_select_next_proto API function when calling with an empty supported client protocols buffer. By sending a specially crafted request, a remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to cause a crash or memory contents to be sent to the peer.
CWE:   CWE-126: Buffer Over-read
CVSS Source:   IBM X-Force
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-2024-36124
DESCRIPTION:   Snappy is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by an out-of-bounds read flaw when uncompressing data. By sending a specially crafted request, a remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to cause JVM to crash.
CWE:   CWE-125: Out-of-bounds Read
CVSS Source:   IBM X-Force
CVSS Base score:   5.3
CVSS Vector:   (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:L)

CVEID:   CVE-2024-2379
DESCRIPTION:   cURL libcurl could allow a remote attacker to bypass security restrictions, caused by a flaw when wolfSSL library was built with the OPENSSL_COMPATIBLE_DEFAULTS symbol set. By sending a specially-crafted request, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to bypass certificate verification for a QUIC connection.
CWE:   CWE-295: Improper Certificate Validation
CVSS Source:   IBM X-Force
CVSS Base score:   3.7
CVSS Vector:   (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N)

CVEID:   CVE-2024-2398
DESCRIPTION:   cURL libcurl is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by a memory leak when allowing HTTP/2 server push. By sending a specially crafted PUSH_PROMISE frames with an excessive amount of headers, a remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to cause a denial of service condition.
CWE:   CWE-401: Missing Release of Memory after Effective Lifetime
CVSS Source:   IBM X-Force
CVSS Base score:   5.3
CVSS Vector:   (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:L)

CVEID:   CVE-2024-2466
DESCRIPTION:   cURL libcurl could allow a remote attacker to bypass security restrictions, caused by a flaw when built to use mbedTLS. By sending a specially crafted request, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to bypass TLS certificate check.
CWE:   CWE-295: Improper Certificate Validation
CVSS Source:   IBM X-Force
CVSS Base score:   5.3
CVSS Vector:   (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N)

CVEID:   CVE-2024-2004
DESCRIPTION:   cURL libcurl could allow a local attacker to bypass security restrictions, caused by a lfaw in the logic for removing protocols. By sending a specially crafted request, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to use the disabled set of protocols.
CWE:   CWE-20: Improper Input Validation
CVSS Source:   IBM X-Force
CVSS Base score:   3.7
CVSS Vector:   (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/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.
