Security Bulletin: Multiple vulnerabilities in IBM MQ Operator and Queue manager container images

Vulnerability Details

CVEID:   CVE-2024-12133
DESCRIPTION:   A flaw in libtasn1 causes inefficient handling of specific certificate data. When processing a large number of elements in a certificate, libtasn1 takes much longer than expected, which can slow down or even crash the system. This flaw allows an attacker to send a specially crafted certificate, causing a denial of service attack.
CWE:   CWE-407: Inefficient Algorithmic Complexity

CVEID:   CVE-2025-22868
DESCRIPTION:   An attacker can pass a malicious malformed token which causes unexpected memory to be consumed during parsing.
CWE:   CWE-1286: Improper Validation of Syntactic Correctness of Input

CVEID:   CVE-2025-24528
DESCRIPTION:   In MIT krb5 release 1.7 and later with incremental propagation enabled, an authenticated attacker can cause kadmind to write beyond the end of the mapped region for the iprop log file, likely causing a process crash.

CVEID:   CVE-2025-36041
DESCRIPTION:   IBM MQ Native HA CRR could be configured with a private key and chain other than the intended key which could disclose sensitive information or allow the attacker to perform unauthorized actions.
CWE:   CWE-295: Improper Certificate Validation

CVEID:   CVE-2024-12243
DESCRIPTION:   A flaw was found in GnuTLS, which relies on libtasn1 for ASN.1 data processing. Due to an inefficient algorithm in libtasn1, decoding certain DER-encoded certificate data can take excessive time, leading to increased resource consumption. This flaw allows a remote attacker to send a specially crafted certificate, causing GnuTLS to become unresponsive or slow, resulting in a denial-of-service condition.

CVEID:   CVE-2025-22871
DESCRIPTION:   The net/http package improperly accepts a bare LF as a line terminator in chunked data chunk-size lines. This can permit request smuggling if a net/http server is used in conjunction with a server that incorrectly accepts a bare LF as part of a chunk-ext.
