critical Nessus Plugin ID 97893

Language:

Synopsis

A data aggregation application installed on the remote host is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

The version of Tenable Log Correlation Engine (LCE) installed on the remote host is prior to 4.8.1. It is, therefore, affected by the following vulnerabilities :

 - Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities exist in the Handlebars library in the lib/handlebars/utils.js script due to a failure to properly escape input passed as unquoted attributes to templates. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit these vulnerabilities, via a specially crafted request, to execute arbitrary script code in a user's browser session. (CVE-2015-8861, CVE-2015-8862)

 - A heap-based buffer overflow condition exists in the Perl-Compatible Regular Expressions (PCRE) component that is triggered when processing nested back references in a duplicate named group. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to cause a denial of service condition or the execution of arbitrary code.
 (CVE-2016-1283)

 - An out-of-bounds read error exists in the libxml2 component in parserInternals.c due to improper parsing of characters in an XML file. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to disclose sensitive information or cause a denial of service condition.
 (CVE-2016-1833)

 - An overflow condition exists in the libxml2 component in xmlstring.c due to improper validation of user-supplied input when handling a string with NULL. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, via a specially crafted file, to cause a denial of service condition or the execution of arbitrary code.
 (CVE-2016-1834)

 - Multiple use-after-free errors exist in the libxml2 component in parser.c that is triggered when parsing complex names. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit these issues, via a specially crafted file, to dereference already freed memory and potentially execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-1835, CVE-2016-1836)

 - Multiple heap-based buffer overflow conditions exist in the libxml2 component in HTMLparser.c and xmlregexp.c due to improper validation of user-supplied input when parsing characters in a range. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit these issues, via a specially crafted file, to cause a denial of service condition or the execution of arbitrary code.
 (CVE-2016-1837, CVE-2016-1839, CVE-2016-1840)

 - Multiple out-of-bounds read errors exist in the libxml2 component in parser.c. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit these issues to disclose sensitive information or cause a denial of service condition.
 (CVE-2016-1838, CVE-2016-4447)

 - A heap buffer overflow condition exists in the OpenSSL component in the EVP_EncodeUpdate() function within file crypto/evp/encode.c that is triggered when handling a large amount of input data. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to cause a denial of service condition. (CVE-2016-2105)

 - A heap buffer overflow condition exists in the OpenSSL component in the EVP_EncryptUpdate() function within file crypto/evp/evp_enc.c that is triggered when handling a large amount of input data after a previous call occurs to the same function with a partial block.
 An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to cause a denial of service condition. (CVE-2016-2106)

 - Flaws exist in the aesni_cbc_hmac_sha1_cipher() function in file crypto/evp/e_aes_cbc_hmac_sha1.c and the aesni_cbc_hmac_sha256_cipher() function in file crypto/evp/e_aes_cbc_hmac_sha256.c that are triggered when the connection uses an AES-CBC cipher and AES-NI is supported by the server. A man-in-the-middle attacker can exploit these to conduct a padding oracle attack, resulting in the ability to decrypt the network traffic.
 (CVE-2016-2107)

 - A remote code execution vulnerability exists in the OpenSSL component in the ASN.1 encoder due to an underflow condition that occurs when attempting to encode the value zero represented as a negative integer.
 An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to corrupt memory, resulting in the execution of arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-2108)

 - Multiple unspecified flaws exist in the d2i BIO functions when reading ASN.1 data from a BIO due to invalid encoding causing a large allocation of memory.
 An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit these to cause a denial of service condition through resource exhaustion. (CVE-2016-2109)

 - An out-of-bounds read error exists in the X509_NAME_oneline() function within file crypto/x509/x509_obj.c when handling very long ASN1 strings. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to disclose the contents of stack memory.
 (CVE-2016-2176)

 - An overflow condition exists in the Perl-Compatible Regular Expressions (PCRE) component due to improper validation of user-supplied input when handling the (*ACCEPT) verb. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to cause a denial of service condition or the execution of arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-3191)

 - A flaw exists in the libxml2 component in parser.c that occurs when handling XML content in recovery mode. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to cause a stack exhaustion, resulting in a denial of service condition. (CVE-2016-3627)

 - A flaw exists in the libxml2 component in parser.c due to improper validation of user-supplied input. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to cause a stack exhaustion, resulting in a denial of service condition. (CVE-2016-3705)

 - A format string flaw exists in the libxml2 component due to improper use of string format specifiers (e.g. %s and %x). An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to cause a denial of service condition or the execution of arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-4448)

 - An XML external entity injection vulnerability exists in parser.c due to improper parsing of XML data. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, via specially crafted XML data, to disclose arbitrary files or cause a denial of service condition. (CVE-2016-4449)

 - An out-of-bounds read error exists in the libxml2 component in xmlsave.c that occurs when handling XML content in recovery mode. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to disclose sensitive information or cause a denial of service condition.
 (CVE-2016-4483)

 - A security bypass vulnerability exists in the libcurl component due to the program attempting to resume TLS sessions even if the client certificate fails. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to bypass validation mechanisms. (CVE-2016-5419)

 - An information disclosure vulnerability exists in the libcurl component due to the program reusing TLS connections with different client certificates. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to disclose sensitive cross-realm information.
 (CVE-2016-5420)

 - A use-after-free error exists in the libcurl component that is triggered as connection pointers are not properly cleared for easy handles. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to dereference already freed memory, potentially resulting in the execution of arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-5421)

 - Multiple stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities exist due to improper validation of user-supplied input. An authenticated, remote attacker can exploit these, via a specially crafted request, to execute arbitrary script code in a user's browsers session. (CVE-2016-9261)
