Issue summary: Calling the OpenSSL API function SSLselectnextproto with an empty supported client protocols buffer may cause a crash or memory contents to be sent to the peer.

NCurse is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by a segmentation fault in the ncwrapentry(). By persuading a victim to open a specially crafted content, a remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to cause a denial of service condition.

Accessibility. A privacy issue was addressed by removing sensitive data.

Applications that use the function EVPPKEYpubliccheck() to check RSA public keys may experience long delays. Where the key that is being checked has been obtained from an untrusted source this may lead to a Denial of Service. An application that calls EVPPKEYpubliccheck() and supplies an RSA key obtained from an untrusted source could be vulnerable to a Denial of Service attack.

The OpenSSL SSL/TLS implementation is not affected by this issue. The OpenSSL 3.0 and 3.1 FIPS providers are affected by this issue. OpenSSL versions 3.0.0 to 3.0.12, 3.1.0 to 3.1.4 and 3.2.0 are vulnerable to this issue. OpenSSL versions 1.1.1 and 1.0.2 are not affected by this issue.

A flaw was found in the way TLS 1.2 could use the MD5 hash function for signing ServerKeyExchange and Client Authentication packets during a TLS handshake. A man-in-the-middle attacker able to force a TLS connection to use the MD5 hash function could use this flaw to conduct collision attacks to impersonate a TLS server or an authenticated TLS client.

Incorrect cipher key & IV length processing

Issue summary: Processing some specially crafted ASN.1 object identifiers or data containing them may be very slow.

Impact summary: Applications that use OBJobj2txt() directly, or use any of the OpenSSL subsystems OCSP, PKCS7/SMIME, CMS, CMP/CRMF or TS with no message size limit may experience notable to very long delays when processing those messages, which may lead to a Denial of Service.

A security vulnerability has been identified in all supported versions

of OpenSSL related to the verification of X.509 certificate chains that include policy constraints. Attackers may be able to exploit this vulnerability by creating a malicious certificate chain that triggers exponential use of computational resources, leading to a denial-of-service (DoS) attack on affected systems.

Policy processing is disabled by default but can be enabled by passing the -policy' argument to the command line utilities or by calling the X509VERIFYPARAMset1policies()' function.

A security vulnerability was found in zlib. The flaw triggered a heap-based buffer in inflate in the inflate.c function via a large gzip header extra field. This flaw is only applicable in the call inflateGetHeader.

A flaw was found in expat. The vulnerability occurs due to large content in element type declarations when there is an element declaration handler present which leads to an integer overflow. This flaw allows an attacker to inject an unsigned integer, leading to a crash or a denial of service.

Expat (aka libexpat) before 2.4.4 has a signed integer overflow in XMLGetBuffer, for configurations with a nonzero XMLCONTEXTBYTES.

expat (libexpat) is susceptible to a software flaw that causes process interruption. When processing a large number of prefixed XML attributes on a single tag can libexpat can terminate unexpectedly due to integer overflow. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to availability, confidentiality and integrity.

Expat (aka libexpat) is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by a realloc misbehavior issue in the storeAtts function in xmlparse.c. By persuading a victim to open a specially-crafted XML content, a remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to cause a the application to crash.

IBM Cognos Analytics 11.2.0, 11.2.4, 12.0, and 12.1.0 and IBM Cognos Transformer 11.2.4, 12.0, and 12.1.0 are vulnerable to cross-site scripting (XSS). This vulnerability allows a remote attacker to inject arbitrary JavaScript code into the web user interface, which may alter the intended functionality and could lead to the disclosure of credentials within a trusted session.

Accessibility. A privacy issue was addressed with improved private data redaction for log entries.

A flaw was found in node.js, where it did not properly handle multi-value Relative Distinguished Names. This flaw allows a specially crafted x509 certificate to produce a false multi-value Relative Distinguished Name and to inject arbitrary data in node.js libraries.

A regular expression denial of service (ReDoS) vulnerability was found in nodejs-ansi-regex. This could possibly cause an application using ansi-regex to use an excessive amount of CPU time when matching crafted ANSI escape codes.

IBM WebSphere Application Server 8.5, 9.0 and IBM WebSphere Application Server Liberty 17.0.0.3 through 25.0.0.12 are affected by cross-site scripting due to improper validation of user-supplied input.

Denial of Service via proto Key in mergeConfig

Summary

The mergeConfig function in axios crashes with a TypeError when processing configuration objects containing proto as an own property. An attacker can trigger this by providing a malicious configuration object created via JSON.parse(), causing complete denial of service.

Details

The vulnerability exists in lib/core/mergeConfig.js at lines 98-101:

javascript utils.forEach(Object.keys({ ...config1, ...config2 }), function computeConfigValue(prop) { const merge = mergeMap[prop] || mergeDeepProperties; const configValue = merge(config1[prop], config2[prop], prop); (utils.isUndefined(configValue) && merge !== mergeDirectKeys) || (config[prop] = configValue); });

When prop is 'proto':

1. JSON.parse('{"proto": {...}}') creates an object with proto as an own enumerable property 2. Object.keys() includes 'proto' in the iteration 3. mergeMap['proto'] performs prototype chain lookup, returning Object.prototype (truthy object) 4. The expression mergeMap[prop] || mergeDeepProperties evaluates to Object.prototype 5. Object.prototype(...) throws TypeError: merge is not a function

The mergeConfig function is called by:

- Axios.request() at lib/core/Axios.js:75 - Axios.getUri() at lib/core/Axios.js:201 - All HTTP method shortcuts (get, post, etc.) at lib/core/Axios.js:211,224

PoC

javascript import axios from "axios";

const maliciousConfig = JSON.parse('{"proto": {"x": 1}}'); await axios.get("https://httpbin.org/get", maliciousConfig);

Reproduction steps:

1. Clone axios repository or npm install axios 2. Create file poc.mjs with the code above 3. Run: node poc.mjs 4. Observe the TypeError crash

Verified output (axios 1.13.4):

TypeError: merge is not a function at computeConfigValue (lib/core/mergeConfig.js:100:25) at Object.forEach (lib/utils.js:280:10) at mergeConfig (lib/core/mergeConfig.js:98:9)

Control tests performed: | Test | Config | Result | |------|--------|--------| | Normal config | {"timeout": 5000} | SUCCESS | | Malicious config | JSON.parse('{"proto": {"x": 1}}') | CRASH | | Nested object | {"headers": {"X-Test": "value"}} | SUCCESS |

Attack scenario: An application that accepts user input, parses it with JSON.parse(), and passes it to axios configuration will crash when receiving the payload {"proto": {"x": 1}}.

Impact

Denial of Service - Any application using axios that processes user-controlled JSON and passes it to axios configuration methods is vulnerable. The application will crash when processing the malicious payload.

Affected environments:

- Node.js servers using axios for HTTP requests - Any backend that passes parsed JSON to axios configuration

This is NOT prototype pollution - the application crashes before any assignment occurs.

A flaw has been found in pnggroup libpng up to 1.6.55. Affected by this vulnerability is the function dopnm2png of the file contrib/pngminus/pnm2png.c of the component pnm2png. This manipulation of the argument width/height causes heap-based buffer overflow. The attack is restricted to local execution. The exploit has been published and may be used. The project was informed of the problem early through an issue report but has not responded yet.

IBM Cognos Analytics 12.1.0 through 12.1.3 FP1, and 12.0.4 through 12.0.4 FP2 could allow an attacker on a shared network to obtain sensitive information caused by insecure network communication.
