A flaw was found in nodejs. A denial of service is possible when the whitelist includes “localhost6”. When “localhost6” is not present in /etc/hosts, it is just an ordinary domain that is resolved via DNS over the network. If the attacker controls the victim's DNS server or can spoof its responses, the DNS rebinding protection can be bypassed by using the “localhost6” domain. As long as the attacker uses the “localhost6” domain, they can still apply the attack described in CVE-2018-7160.
A flaw was found in nodejs. When too many connection attempts with an 'unknownProtocol' are established a leak of file descriptors can occur leading to a potential denial of service. If a file descriptor limit is configured on the system, then the server is unable to accept new connections and prevent the process also from opening. If no file descriptor limit is configured, then this can lead to an excessive memory usage and cause the system to run out of memory. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to system availability.
A Node.js application that allows an attacker to trigger a DNS request for a host of their choice could trigger a Denial of Service in versions < 15.2.1, < 14.15.1, and < 12.19.1 by getting the application to resolve a DNS record with a larger number of responses. This is fixed in 15.2.1, 14.15.1, and 12.19.1.
IBM Cloud Pak for Security (CP4S) 1.4.0.0, 1.5.0.0, 1.5.0.1, 1.6.0.0, and 1.6.0.1 could allow a privileged user to inject inject malicious data using a specially crafted HTTP request due to improper input validation.
Overview
The npm package y18n before versions 3.2.2, 4.0.1, and 5.0.5 is vulnerable to Prototype Pollution.
POC
js const y18n = require('y18n')();
y18n.setLocale('proto'); y18n.updateLocale({polluted: true});
console.log(polluted); // true
Recommendation
Upgrade to version 3.2.2, 4.0.1, 5.0.5 or later.
IBM Cloud Pak for Security (CP4S) 1.4.0.0, 1.5.0.0, 1.5.0.1, 1.6.0.0, and 1.6.0.1 could allow a remote attacker to obtain sensitive information, caused by the failure to properly enable HTTP Strict Transport Security. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability to obtain sensitive information using man in the middle techniques. IBM X-Force ID: 199235.
IBM Cloud Pak for Security (CP4S) 1.4.0.0, 1.5.0.0, 1.5.0.1, 1.6.0.0, and 1.6.0.1 uses a protection mechanism that relies on the existence or values of an input, but the input can be modified by an untrusted actor in a way that bypasses the protection mechanism. IBM X-Force ID: 199236.
A flaw was found in nodejs-set-value. The function mixin-deep can be tricked into adding or modifying properties of Object.prototype using any of the constructor, prototype, or proto payloads. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to data confidentiality and integrity.
A flaw was found in Nodejs's mixin-deep prior to versions 1.3.2 and 2.0.0. The mixin-deep function could be used to add or modify properties of the Object.prototype. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to system availability.
Envoy before 1.16.1 logs an incorrect downstream address because it considers only the directly connected peer, not the information in the proxy protocol header. This affects situations with tcp-proxy as the network filter (not HTTP filters).
Envoy before 1.16.1 mishandles dropped and truncated datagrams, as demonstrated by a segmentation fault for a UDP packet size larger than 1500.
GNU C Library is vulnerable to a stack-based buffer overflow, caused by not handling non-normal x86 long double numbers gracefully for printf family functions. By sending a specially crafted value to the functions, a local attacker could overflow a buffer and execute arbitrary code on the system or cause the application to crash.
