GHSA-GX9F-QVH7-6MRG
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2022-12-12 09:30 – Updated: 2022-12-14 18:30
VLAI
Details
Multiple vulnerabilities in the Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP) functionality of Cisco ATA 190 Series Analog Telephone Adapter firmware could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on an affected device and cause the LLDP service to restart. These vulnerabilities are due to missing length validation of certain LLDP packet header fields. An attacker could exploit these vulnerabilities by sending a malicious LLDP packet to an affected device. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to execute code on the affected device and cause LLDP to restart unexpectedly, resulting in a denial of service (DoS) condition.

Summary
Jetty accepts "+" prefixed value in Content-Length
Details
Impact
Jetty accepts the '+' character proceeding the content-length value in a HTTP/1 header field. This is more permissive than allowed by the RFC and other servers routinely reject such requests with 400 responses. There is no known exploit scenario, but it is conceivable that request smuggling could result if jetty is used in combination with a server that does not close the connection after sending such a 400 response.
Workarounds
There is no workaround as there is no known exploit scenario.
Original Report
RFC 9110 Secion 8.6 defined the value of Content-Length header should be a string of 0-9 digits. However we found that Jetty accepts "+" prefixed Content-Length, which could lead to potential HTTP request smuggling.
Payload:
POST / HTTP/1.1
Host: a.com
Content-Length: +16
Connection: close
0123456789abcdef
When sending this payload to Jetty, it can successfully parse and identify the length.
When sending this payload to NGINX, Apache HTTPd or other HTTP servers/parsers, they will return 400 bad request.
This behavior can lead to HTTP request smuggling and can be leveraged to bypass WAF or IDS.

rust-openssl: Unchecked callback length in PSK/cookie trampolines leaks adjacent memory to peer
Details
The FFI trampolines behind SslContextBuilder::set_psk_client_callback, set_psk_server_callback, set_cookie_generate_cb, and set_stateless_cookie_generate_cb forwarded the user closure's returned usize directly to OpenSSL without checking it against the &mut [u8] that was handed to the closure. This can lead to buffer overflows and other unintended consequences.

An Improper Handling of Length Parameter Inconsistency vulnerability in the routing protocol daemon (rpd) of Juniper Networks Junos OS and Junos OS Evolved allows a network based, unauthenticated attacker to cause an RPD crash leading to a Denial of Service (DoS). Continued receipt and processing of this packet will create a sustained Denial of Service (DoS) condition. Upon receipt of a malformed BGP flowspec update, RPD will crash resulting in a Denial of Service.

In rsync 3.0.1 through 3.4.1, receive_xattr relies on an untrusted length value during a qsort call, leading to a receiver use-after-free. The victim must run rsync with -X (aka --xattrs). On Linux, many (but not all) common configurations are vulnerable. Non-Linux platforms are more widely vulnerable.

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2021-08-02 16:55 – Updated: 2022-02-08 21:03
VLAI
Summary
Improper Handling of Length Parameter Inconsistency in Compress
Details
When reading a specially crafted ZIP archive, Compress can be made to allocate large amounts of memory that finally leads to an out of memory error even for very small inputs. This could be used to mount a denial of service attack against services that use Compress' zip package.
Severity
7.5 (High)

}
Mitigation
Implementation
When processing structured incoming data containing a size field followed by raw data, ensure that you identify and resolve any inconsistencies between the size field and the actual size of the data.
Mitigation
Implementation
Do not let the user control the size of the buffer.
Mitigation
Implementation
Validate that the length of the user-supplied data is consistent with the buffer size.
CAPEC-47: Buffer Overflow via Parameter Expansion
In this attack, the target software is given input that the adversary knows will be modified and expanded in size during processing. This attack relies on the target software failing to anticipate that the expanded data may exceed some internal limit, thereby creating a buffer overflow.
