Vulnerabilities (CVE)

On BIG-IP 11.5.1-11.5.8, 11.6.1-11.6.3, 12.1.0-12.1.3.6, 13.0.0-13.1.1.1, and 14.0.0-14.0.0.2, under certain conditions, hardware systems with a High-Speed Bridge and using non-default Layer 2 forwarding configurations may experience a lockup of the High-Speed Bridge.

In BIG-IP 11.5.1-11.5.8, 11.6.1-11.6.3, 12.1.0-12.1.3, and 13.0.0-13.0.1, malformed TCP packets sent to a self IP address or a FastL4 virtual server may cause an interruption of service. The control plane is not exposed to this issue. This issue impacts the data plane virtual servers and self IPs.

In BIG-IP 11.5.1-11.5.8 and 11.6.1-11.6.3, the Configuration Utility login page may not follow best security practices when handling a malicious request.

In BIG-IP 13.0.0, 12.1.0-12.1.3.7, 11.6.1-11.6.3.2, or 11.5.1-11.5.8, the Application Acceleration Manager (AAM) wamd process used in processing of images and PDFs fails to drop group permissions when executing helper scripts.

In BIG-IP 14.0.0-14.0.0.2, 13.0.0-13.1.1.3, 12.1.0-12.1.3.7, 11.6.1-11.6.3.2, or 11.5.1-11.5.8, when remote authentication is enabled for administrative users and all external users are granted the "guest" role, unsanitized values can be reflected to the client via the login page. This can lead to a cross-site scripting attack against unauthenticated clients.

In BIG-IP 11.6.1-11.6.3.2 or 11.5.1-11.5.8, or Enterprise Manager 3.1.1, improper escaping of values in an undisclosed page of the configuration utility may result with an improper handling on the JSON response when it is injected by a malicious script via a remote cross-site scripting (XSS) attack.

In BIG-IP 14.0.0-14.0.0.2, 13.0.0-13.1.0.7, 12.1.0-12.1.3.5, 11.6.1-11.6.3.2, or 11.5.1-11.5.8 or Enterprise Manager 3.1.1, malformed requests to the Traffic Management User Interface (TMUI), also referred to as the BIG-IP Configuration utility, may lead to disruption of TMUI services. This attack requires an authenticated user with any role (other than the No Access role). The No Access user role cannot login and does not have the access level to perform the attack.

In BIG-IP 13.0.0-13.1.1.1, 12.1.0-12.1.3.7, 11.6.1-11.6.3.2, or 11.5.1-11.5.8 or Enterprise Manager 3.1.1, when authenticated administrative users run commands in the Traffic Management User Interface (TMUI), also referred to as the BIG-IP Configuration utility, restrictions on allowed commands may not be enforced.

In BIG-IP 14.0.0-14.0.0.2, 13.0.0-13.1.1.1, 12.1.0-12.1.3.6, 11.6.1-11.6.3.2, or 11.5.1-11.5.8, when processing fragmented ClientHello messages in a DTLS session TMM may corrupt memory eventually leading to a crash. Only systems offering DTLS connections via APM are impacted.

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in F5 BIG-IP Access Policy Manager (APM) 11.5.x and 11.6.x Admin Web UI.

On BIG-IP 11.5.1-11.6.3.2, 12.1.3.4-12.1.3.7, 13.0.0 HF1-13.1.1.1, and 14.0.0-14.0.0.2, Multi-Path TCP (MPTCP) does not protect against multiple zero length DATA_FINs in the reassembly queue, which can lead to an infinite loop in some circumstances.

On BIG-IP 11.5.1-11.5.4, 11.6.1, and 12.1.0, a virtual server configured with a Client SSL profile may be vulnerable to a chosen ciphertext attack against CBC ciphers. When exploited, this may result in plaintext recovery of encrypted messages through a man-in-the-middle (MITM) attack, despite the attacker not having gained access to the server's private key itself. (CVE-2019-6593 also known as Zombie POODLE and GOLDENDOODLE.)

On BIG-IP 14.1.0-14.1.0.1, TMM may restart and produce a core file when validating SSL certificates in client SSL or server SSL profiles.

On BIG-IP APM 14.0.0 to 14.0.0.4, 13.0.0 to 13.1.1.3 and 12.1.0 to 12.1.3.7, a reflected cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists in the resource information page for authenticated users when a full webtop is configured on the BIG-IP APM system.

On BIG-IP LTM 13.0.0 to 13.0.1 and 12.1.0 to 12.1.3.6, under certain conditions, the TMM may consume excessive resources when processing SSL Session ID Persistence traffic.

On BIG-IP 14.0.0-14.0.0.2, 13.0.0-13.1.1.3, 12.1.0-12.1.3.7, and 11.6.0-11.6.3.2, a reflected Cross Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability is present in an undisclosed page of the BIG-IP TMUI (Traffic Management User Interface) also known as the BIG-IP configuration utility.

A race condition which may occur when discarding malformed packets can result in BIND exiting due to a REQUIRE assertion failure in dispatch.c. Versions affected: BIND 9.11.0 -> 9.11.7, 9.12.0 -> 9.12.4-P1, 9.14.0 -> 9.14.2. Also all releases of the BIND 9.13 development branch and version 9.15.0 of the BIND 9.15 development branch and BIND Supported Preview Edition versions 9.11.3-S1 -> 9.11.7-S1.

A heap buffer overflow in the TFTP receiving code allows for DoS or arbitrary code execution in libcurl versions 7.19.4 through 7.64.1.

Versions of the Official Alpine Linux Docker images (since v3.3) contain a NULL password for the `root` user. This vulnerability appears to be the result of a regression introduced in December of 2015. Due to the nature of this issue, systems deployed using affected versions of the Alpine Linux container which utilize Linux PAM, or some other mechanism which uses the system shadow file as an authentication database, may accept a NULL password for the `root` user.

NGINX before 1.17.7, with certain error_page configurations, allows HTTP request smuggling, as demonstrated by the ability of an attacker to read unauthorized web pages in environments where NGINX is being fronted by a load balancer.

If an application encounters a fatal protocol error and then calls SSL_shutdown() twice (once to send a close_notify, and once to receive one) then OpenSSL can respond differently to the calling application if a 0 byte record is received with invalid padding compared to if a 0 byte record is received with an invalid MAC. If the application then behaves differently based on that in a way that is detectable to the remote peer, then this amounts to a padding oracle that could be used to decrypt dat ... If an application encounters a fatal protocol error and then calls SSL_shutdown() twice (once to send a close_notify, and once to receive one) then OpenSSL can respond differently to the calling application if a 0 byte record is received with invalid padding compared to if a 0 byte record is received with an invalid MAC. If the application then behaves differently based on that in a way that is detectable to the remote peer, then this amounts to a padding oracle that could be used to decrypt data. In order for this to be exploitable "non-stitched" ciphersuites must be in use. Stitched ciphersuites are optimised implementations of certain commonly used ciphersuites. Also the application must call SSL_shutdown() twice even if a protocol error has occurred (applications should not do this but some do anyway). Fixed in OpenSSL 1.0.2r (Affected 1.0.2-1.0.2q).

On versions 15.0.0-15.0.1.1, 14.1.0-14.1.2, 14.0.0-14.0.1, 13.1.0-13.1.3.1, 12.1.0-12.1.5, and 11.5.2-11.6.5.1, the BIG-IP APM system logs the client-session-id when a per-session policy is attached to the virtual server with debug logging enabled.

In the Linux kernel before 5.2.14, rds6_inc_info_copy in net/rds/recv.c allows attackers to obtain sensitive information from kernel stack memory because tos and flags fields are not initialized.

njs through 0.3.3, used in NGINX, has a heap-based buffer over-read in nxt_vsprintf in nxt/nxt_sprintf.c during error handling, as demonstrated by an njs_regexp_literal call that leads to an njs_parser_lexer_error call and then an njs_parser_scope_error call.

An issue was discovered in OpenLDAP 2.x before 2.4.48. When using SASL authentication and session encryption, and relying on the SASL security layers in slapd access controls, it is possible to obtain access that would otherwise be denied via a simple bind for any identity covered in those ACLs. After the first SASL bind is completed, the sasl_ssf value is retained for all new non-SASL connections. Depending on the ACL configuration, this can affect different types of operations (searches, modif ... An issue was discovered in OpenLDAP 2.x before 2.4.48. When using SASL authentication and session encryption, and relying on the SASL security layers in slapd access controls, it is possible to obtain access that would otherwise be denied via a simple bind for any identity covered in those ACLs. After the first SASL bind is completed, the sasl_ssf value is retained for all new non-SASL connections. Depending on the ACL configuration, this can affect different types of operations (searches, modifications, etc.). In other words, a successful authorization step completed by one user affects the authorization requirement for a different user.

ImageMagick before 7.0.8-50 has a "use of uninitialized value" vulnerability in the function ReadCUTImage in coders/cut.c.

In libssh2 before 1.9.0, kex_method_diffie_hellman_group_exchange_sha256_key_exchange in kex.c has an integer overflow that could lead to an out-of-bounds read in the way packets are read from the server. A remote attacker who compromises a SSH server may be able to disclose sensitive information or cause a denial of service condition on the client system when a user connects to the server. This is related to an _libssh2_check_length mistake, and is different from the various issues fixed in 1.8 ...

njs through 0.3.3, used in NGINX, has a buffer over-read in nxt_utf8_decode in nxt/nxt_utf8.c. This issue occurs after the fix for CVE-2019-12207 is in place.

Interaction between the sks-keyserver code through 1.2.0 of the SKS keyserver network, and GnuPG through 2.2.16, makes it risky to have a GnuPG keyserver configuration line referring to a host on the SKS keyserver network. Retrieving data from this network may cause a persistent denial of service, because of a Certificate Spamming Attack.

In Wireshark 3.0.0 to 3.0.1, 2.6.0 to 2.6.8, and 2.4.0 to 2.4.14, the dissection engine could crash. This was addressed in epan/packet.c by restricting the number of layers and consequently limiting recursion.

njs through 0.3.1, used in NGINX, has a heap-based buffer overflow in njs_function_native_call in njs/njs_function.c.

njs through 0.3.1, used in NGINX, has a heap-based buffer over-read in nxt_utf8_decode in nxt/nxt_utf8.c.

njs through 0.3.1, used in NGINX, has a heap-based buffer overflow in nxt_utf8_encode in nxt_utf8.c.

njs through 0.3.1, used in NGINX, has a heap-based buffer overflow in Array.prototype.push after a resize, related to njs_array_prototype_push in njs/njs_array.c, because of njs_array_expand size mishandling.

njs through 0.3.1, used in NGINX, has a heap-based buffer overflow in Array.prototype.splice after a resize, related to njs_array_prototype_splice in njs/njs_array.c, because of njs_array_expand size mishandling.

njs through 0.3.1, used in NGINX, has a segmentation fault in String.prototype.toBytes for negative arguments, related to nxt_utf8_next in nxt/nxt_utf8.h and njs_string_offset in njs/njs_string.c.

Jonathan Looney discovered that the Linux kernel default MSS is hard-coded to 48 bytes. This allows a remote peer to fragment TCP resend queues significantly more than if a larger MSS were enforced. A remote attacker could use this to cause a denial of service. This has been fixed in stable kernel releases 4.4.182, 4.9.182, 4.14.127, 4.19.52, 5.1.11, and is fixed in commits 967c05aee439e6e5d7d805e195b3a20ef5c433d6 and 5f3e2bf008c2221478101ee72f5cb4654b9fc363.

Jonathan Looney discovered that the TCP retransmission queue implementation in tcp_fragment in the Linux kernel could be fragmented when handling certain TCP Selective Acknowledgment (SACK) sequences. A remote attacker could use this to cause a denial of service. This has been fixed in stable kernel releases 4.4.182, 4.9.182, 4.14.127, 4.19.52, 5.1.11, and is fixed in commit f070ef2ac66716357066b683fb0baf55f8191a2e.

Jonathan Looney discovered that the TCP_SKB_CB(skb)->tcp_gso_segs value was subject to an integer overflow in the Linux kernel when handling TCP Selective Acknowledgments (SACKs). A remote attacker could use this to cause a denial of service. This has been fixed in stable kernel releases 4.4.182, 4.9.182, 4.14.127, 4.19.52, 5.1.11, and is fixed in commit 3b4929f65b0d8249f19a50245cd88ed1a2f78cff.
