KB5044277: Windows 10 version 1809 / Windows Server 2019 Security Update (October 2024)

critical Nessus Plugin ID 208285

Language:

Synopsis

The remote Windows host is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

The remote Windows host is missing security update 5044277. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities

 - libcurl's ASN1 parser has this utf8asn1str() function used for parsing an ASN.1 UTF-8 string. Itcan detect an invalid field and return error. Unfortunately, when doing so it also invokes `free()` on a 4 byte localstack buffer. Most modern malloc implementations detect this error and immediately abort. Some however accept the input pointer and add that memory to its list of available chunks. This leads to the overwriting of nearby stack memory. The content of the overwrite is decided by the `free()` implementation; likely to be memory pointers and a set of flags. The most likely outcome of exploting this flaw is a crash, although it cannot be ruled out that more serious results can be had in special circumstances. (CVE-2024-6197)
- Remote Desktop Client Remote Code Execution Vulnerability (CVE-2024-43599)

 - An unauthenticated attacker could send a specially crafted protocol message to a Routing and Remote Access Service (RRAS) server, which could lead to remote code execution (RCE) on the RAS server machine.
 (CVE-2024-43607)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.
