CVE-2024-42516 - this is the "complete" fix for the CVE-2023-38709 response splitting issue. The patch issued upstream for CVE-2023-38709 did not fix the vulnerability.

Diffie-Hellman key agreement protocol is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by the use of long exponents that arguably make certain calculations unnecessarily expensive. By sending specially-crafted network traffic, a remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to cause a denial of service.

An out-of-bounds write vulnerability exists in F5OS-A and F5OS-C that could lead to memory corruption.

When a highly-privileged, authenticated attacker attempts to initialize the rSeries FIPS module using a password with special shell metacharacters, arbitrary system commands may be executed, and the FIPS hardware security module (HSM) may fail to initialize. A successful exploit can allow the attacker to cross a security boundary.

HTTP response splitting in the core of Apache HTTP Server allows an attacker who can manipulate the Content-Type response headers of applications hosted or proxied by the server can split the HTTP response. This vulnerability was described as CVE-2023-38709 but the patch included in Apache HTTP Server 2.4.59 did not address the issue. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 2.4.64, which fixes this issue.

A successful exploit can allow the attacker to cross a security boundary.

Improper input validation in UEFI firmware for some Intel(R) Processors may allow a privileged user to enable information disclosure or denial of service via local access.
