Red Hat Security Advisory: Satellite 6.16.12 Async Update

Important

A flaw was found in the OpenSSL CMS implementation (RFC 3211 KEK Unwrap). This vulnerability allows memory corruption, an application level denial of service, or potential execution of attacker-supplied code via crafted CMS messages using password-based encryption (PWRI).

CWE-787 - Out-of-bounds Write

A flaw was found in Eclipse Jetty. The HTTP/1.1 parser is vulnerable to request smuggling when chunk extensions are used. An attacker can inject crafted requests to manipulate and trick the parser. This issue can lead to security controls bypass, cache poisoning or unauthorized endpoint access.

CWE-444 - Inconsistent Interpretation of HTTP Requests ('HTTP Request/Response Smuggling')

A flaw was found in Katello's of Red Hat Satellite. A content upload functionality where insufficient authorization checks in the ContentUploadsController allowed users with the edit_products permission to query content information for repositories outside the products they were authorized to manage. An authenticated attacker could exploit this issue to determine whether specific content exists within repositories that should otherwise be inaccessible. This issue does not allow unauthorized modification, import, or publication of content.

CWE-862 - Missing Authorization

A flaw was found in PyJWT, a Python library for JSON Web Token (JWT) implementation. When decoding JWTs, the library fails to validate the use of JSON Web Keys (JWK) in the HMAC algorithm while also supporting asymmetric algorithms. This allows a remote attacker to use the issuer's public key as the secret key for the HMAC algorithm, leading to the ability to forge JWTs. This vulnerability can result in authentication bypass or unauthorized access.

CWE-347 - Improper Verification of Cryptographic Signature

A flaw was found in libsolv. This heap buffer overflow occurs during the decompression of attacker-controlled compressed data within `.solv` files due to insufficient input validation. An attacker can provide a specially crafted `.solv` file, which, when processed by a vulnerable application, can lead to out-of-bounds memory access. This could result in information disclosure, alteration of program execution, or a denial of service.

CWE-787 - Out-of-bounds Write

A flaw was found in Pillow, a Python imaging library. A remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability by providing specially crafted PCF font data. This data, when processed, can lead to excessive memory allocation because the library does not properly check for decompression bombs. The primary consequence is a Denial of Service (DoS), which could make the affected system or application unavailable.

CWE-409 - Improper Handling of Highly Compressed Data (Data Amplification)
