Kibana contain an arbitrary code execution flaw in the Timelion visualizer.

A flaw was discovered in FasterXML jackson-databind, where it would permit polymorphic deserialization of malicious objects using the ehcache and logback JNDI gadgets when used in conjunction with polymorphic type handling methods such as enableDefaultTyping() or when @JsonTypeInfo is using Id.CLASS or Id.MINIMALCLASS or in any other way which ObjectMapper.readValue might instantiate objects from unsafe sources. An attacker could use this flaw to execute arbitrary code.

A deserialization flaw was discovered in the jackson-databind in versions before 2.8.10 and 2.9.1, which could allow an unauthenticated user to perform code execution by sending the maliciously crafted input to the readValue method of the ObjectMapper. This issue extends the previous flaw CVE-2017-7525 by blacklisting more classes that could be used maliciously.

A vulnerability was found in FasterXML jackson-databind before versions 2.7.9.4, 2.8.11.2, 2.9.6. A new potential gadget type from MyBatis (https://github.com/mybatis/mybatis-3) has been reported. It may allow content exfiltration (remote access by sending contents over ftp) when untrusted content is deserialized with default typing enabled.

FasterXML jackson-databind 2.x before 2.9.7 might allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by leveraging failure to block the slf4j-ext class from polymorphic deserialization.

Gnome Pango 1.42 and later is affected by: Buffer Overflow. The impact is: The heap based buffer overflow can be used to get code execution. The component is: function name: pangolog2visgetembeddinglevels, assignment of nchars and the loop condition. The attack vector is: Bug can be used when application pass invalid utf-8 strings to functions like pangoitemize.

A flaw was found in sudo before version 1.8.28. When sudo is configured to allow a user to run commands as an arbitrary user via the 'ALL' keyword in a 'Runas' specification, it is possible to run commands as root.

A sandbox bypass vulnerability in Jenkins Script Security Plugin 1.61 and earlier related to the handling of type casts allowed attackers to execute arbitrary code in sandboxed scripts.

A flaw was found in OpenShift Container Platform version 4.1 and later. Sensitive information was found to be logged by the image registry operator allowing an attacker able to gain access to those logs, to read and write to the storage backing the internal image registry. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to data integrity.

A flaw was found in HTTP/2. Using HEADER frames with invalid HTTP headers and queuing of response RSTSTREAM frames, an attacker could cause a flood resulting in unbounded memory growth. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to system availability.

A use-after-free vulnerability was found in the Go GPGME wrapper library, github.com/proglottis/gpgme. An attacker could use this flaw to crash or cause potential code execution in Go applications that use this library, under certain conditions, during GPG signature verification.

An insecure modification vulnerability in the /etc/passwd file was found in the container openshift/mysql-apb. An attacker with access to the container could use this flaw to modify /etc/passwd and escalate their privileges.

Impact By crafting a malicious root filesystem (with /proc being a symlink to a directory which was inside a volume shared with another running container), an attacker in control of both containers can trick runc into not correctly configuring the container's security labels and not correctly masking paths inside /proc which contain potentially-sensitive information about the host (or even allow for direct attacks against the host).

In order to exploit this bug, an untrusted user must be able to spawn custom containers with custom mount configurations (such that a volume is shared between two containers). It should be noted that we consider this to be a fairly high level of access for an untrusted user -- and we do not recommend allowing completely untrusted users to have such degrees of access without further restrictions.

Specific Go Package Affected github.com/opencontainers/runc/libcontainer

Patches This vulnerability has been fixed in 1.0.0-rc10. It should be noted that the current fix is effectively a hot-fix, and there are known ways for it to be worked around (such as making the entire root filesystem a shared volume controlled by another container). We recommend that users review their access policies to ensure that untrusted users do not have such high levels of controls over container mount configuration.

Workarounds If you are not providing the ability for untrusted users to configure mountpoints for runc (or through a higher-level tool such as docker run -v) then you are not vulnerable to this issue. This exploit requires fairly complicated levels of access (which are available for some public clouds but are not necessarily available for all deployments).

Additionally, it appears as though it is not possible to exploit this vulnerability through Docker (due to the order of mounts Docker generates). However you should not depend on this, as it may be possible to work around this roadblock.

Credits This vulnerability was discovered by Cure53, as part of a third-party security audit.

It has been found that in openshift-enterprise version 3.11 and openshift-enterprise versions 4.1 up to, including 4.3, multiple containers modify the permissions of /etc/passwd to make them modifiable by users other than root. An attacker with access to the running container can exploit this to modify /etc/passwd to add a user and escalate their privileges. This CVE is specific to the openshift/apb-tools-container.

Kubernetes requires an authentication mechanism to enforce users’ privileges. One method of authentication, bearer tokens, are opaque strings used to associate a user with their having successfully authenticated previously. Any user with possession of this token may masquerade as the original user (the “bearer”) without further authentication.

Within Kubernetes, the bearer token is captured within the hyperkube kube-apiserver system logs at high verbosity levels (--v 10). A malicious user with access to the system logs on such a system could masquerade as any user who has previously logged into the system.

A flaw was found in computer hardware of the Intel microprocessors related to the instruction-side TLB (Translation Lookaside Buffer) that caches translations from guest (and host) virtual addresses into physical addresses.

This is a software fix that attempts to prevent exploitation of the hardware through preventing a hacker from creating an exploitable condition

The containers/image library used by container tools; Podman, Builah, and Skopeo in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8, and CRI-O in OpenShift Container Platform does not enforce TLS connections to the container registry authorization service [1]. An attacker could use this vulnerability launch a MiTM attack, and steal login credentials, or bearer tokens.

Google Guava versions 11.0 through 24.1 are vulnerable to unbounded memory allocation in the AtomicDoubleArray class (when serialized with Java serialization) and Compound Ordering class (when serialized with GWT serialization). An attacker could exploit applications that use Guava and deserialize untrusted data to cause a denial of service.
