Security Vulnerabilities
- CVEs Published In February 2023
The Linux kernel through 6.1.9 has a Use-After-Free in bigben_remove in drivers/hid/hid-bigbenff.c via a crafted USB device because the LED controllers remain registered for too long.
In dotCMS 5.x-22.06, it is possible to call the TempResource multiple times, each time requesting the dotCMS server to download a large file. If done repeatedly, this will result in Tomcat request-thread exhaustion and ultimately a denial of any other requests.
Rapid7 Metasploit Pro versions 4.21.2 and lower suffer from a stored cross site scripting vulnerability, due to a lack of JavaScript request string sanitization. Using this vulnerability, an authenticated attacker can execute arbitrary HTML and script code in the target browser against another Metasploit Pro user using a specially crafted request. Note that in most deployments, all Metasploit Pro users tend to enjoy privileges equivalent to local administrator.
An issue was discovered in Joomla! 4.0.0 through 4.2.6. A missing token check causes a CSRF vulnerability in the handling of post-installation messages.
An issue was discovered in Joomla! 4.0.0 through 4.2.4. A missing ACL check allows non super-admin users to access com_actionlogs.
In dotCMS 5.x-22.06, TempFileAPI allows a user to create a temporary file based on a passed in URL, while attempting to block any SSRF access to local IP addresses or private subnets. In resolving this URL, the TempFileAPI follows any 302 redirects that the remote URL returns. Because there is no re-validation of the redirect URL, the TempFileAPI can be used to return data from those local/private hosts that should not be accessible remotely.
Rapid7 Nexpose and InsightVM versions 6.6.82 through 6.6.177 fail to validate the certificate of the update server when downloading updates. This failure could allow an attacker in a privileged position on the network to provide their own HTTPS endpoint, or intercept communications to the legitimate endpoint. The attacker would need some pre-existing access to at least one node on the network path between the Rapid7-controlled update server and the Nexpose/InsightVM application, and the ability to either spoof the update server's FQDN or redirect legitimate traffic to the attacker's server in order to exploit this vulnerability. Note that even in this scenario, an attacker could not normally replace an update package with a malicious package, since the update process validates a separate, code-signing certificate, distinct from the HTTPS certificate used for communication. This issue was resolved on February 1, 2023 in update 6.6.178 of Nexpose and InsightVM.
An issue was discovered in dotCMS core 5.3.8.5 through 5.3.8.15 and 21.03 through 22.10.1. A cryptographically insecure random generation algorithm for password-reset token generation leads to account takeover.
An issue was discovered in dotCMS core 4.x through 22.10.2. An authenticated directory traversal vulnerability in the dotCMS API can lead to Remote Code Execution.
A Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) in maccms10 v2021.1000.2000 allows attackers to force the application to make arbitrary requests via a crafted payload injected into the Name parameter under the Interface address module.
