Vulnerability Details

CVEID:   CVE-2022-41724
DESCRIPTION:   Golang Go is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by a flaw when processing large TLS handshake records. By sending specially-crafted TLS handshake records, a remote authenticated 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:   6.5
CVSS Vector:   (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H)

CVEID:   CVE-2022-41725
DESCRIPTION:   A denial of service is possible from excessive resource consumption in net/http and mime/multipart. Multipart form parsing with mime/multipart.Reader.ReadForm can consume largely unlimited amounts of memory and disk files. This also affects form parsing in the net/http package with the Request methods FormFile, FormValue, ParseMultipartForm, and PostFormValue. ReadForm takes a maxMemory parameter, and is documented as storing "up to maxMemory bytes +10MB (reserved for non-file parts) in memory". File parts which cannot be stored in memory are stored on disk in temporary files. The unconfigurable 10MB reserved for non-file parts is excessively large and can potentially open a denial of service vector on its own. However, ReadForm did not properly account for all memory consumed by a parsed form, such as map entry overhead, part names, and MIME headers, permitting a maliciously crafted form to consume well over 10MB. In addition, ReadForm contained no limit on the number of disk files created, permitting a relatively small request body to create a large number of disk temporary files. With fix, ReadForm now properly accounts for various forms of memory overhead, and should now stay within its documented limit of 10MB + maxMemory bytes of memory consumption. Users should still be aware that this limit is high and may still be hazardous. In addition, ReadForm now creates at most one on-disk temporary file, combining multiple form parts into a single temporary file. The mime/multipart.File interface type's documentation states, "If stored on disk, the File's underlying concrete type will be an *os.File.". This is no longer the case when a form contains more than one file part, due to this coalescing of parts into a single file. The previous behavior of using distinct files for each form part may be reenabled with the environment variable GODEBUG=multipartfiles=distinct. Users should be aware that multipart.ReadForm and the http.Request methods that call it do not limit the amount of disk consumed by temporary files. Callers can limit the size of form data with http.MaxBytesReader.

CVEID:   CVE-2022-41723
DESCRIPTION:   Golang Go is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by a flaw in the HPACK decoder. By sending a specially-crafted HTTP/2 stream, a remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to cause excessive CPU consumption, and results in a denial of service condition.

CVEID:   CVE-2015-3627
DESCRIPTION:   A symlink vulnerability in Libcontainer and Docker Engine regarding the file-descriptor being opened prior to performing the chroot could allow a local attacker to gain elevated privileges on the system. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability using a specially crafted Dockerfile or image to gain elevated privileges on the system.
CWE:   CWE-59: Improper Link Resolution Before File Access ('Link Following')

CVEID:   CVE-2023-25173
DESCRIPTION:   containerd could allow a local authenticated attacker to bypass security restrictions, caused by improper setup for supplementary groups inside a container. By sending a specially-crafted request using supplementary group access, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to bypass primary group restrictions.
CWE:   CWE-863: Incorrect Authorization

CVEID:   CVE-2023-25153
DESCRIPTION:   containerd is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by a memory exhaustion flaw when importing an OCI image. By using a specially-crafted image with a large file, a local attacker could exploit this vulnerability to cause a denial of service condition.
