Vulnerability Details

CVEID:CVE-2022-1434
**DESCRIPTION:**OpenSSL is vulnerable to a man-in-the-middle attack, caused by the use of the AAD data as the MAC key in the RC4-MD5 ciphersuite. A remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to predict the MAC key and launch a man-in-the-middle attack and gain access to the communication channel between endpoints to modify data in transit in such a way that it will pass a MAC integrity check.
CVSS Base score: 6.5
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/225617 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:N)

CVEID:CVE-2022-1343
**DESCRIPTION:**OpenSSL could allow a remote attacker to bypass security restrictions, caused by a incorrect verification of response signing certificates by the OCSP_basic_verify function. By sending a specially-crafted request using the OCSP_NOCHECKS flag, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to forge positive verification results.
CVSS Base score: 5.3

CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:L)

CVEID:CVE-2021-22947
**DESCRIPTION:**cURL libcurl is vulnerable to a man-in-the-middle attack, caused by a flaw when connecting to an IMAP, POP3, SMTP or FTP server to exchange data securely using STARTTLS to upgrade the connection to TLS level. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability to launch a man-in-the-middle attack and gain access to the communication channel between endpoints to obtain sensitive information or further compromise the system.
CVSS Base score: 7.4
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/209453 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N)

CVEID:CVE-2022-22576
**DESCRIPTION:**cURL libcurl could allow a remote attacker to bypass security restrictions, caused by improper authentication validation when reuse OAUTH2-authenticated connections. By sending a specially-crafted request using user + “other OAUTH2 bearer”, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to bypass access authentication validation.
CVSS Base score: 7.5
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/225291 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N)

CVEID:CVE-2021-22945
**DESCRIPTION:**cURL libcurl is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by a use-after-free and double free flaw when sending data to an MQTT server. By sending a specially-crafted data, a remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to cause a denial of service condition.
CVSS Base score: 7.5
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/209451 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H)

CVEID:CVE-2022-27774
**DESCRIPTION:**cURL libcurl could allow a remote attacker to obtain sensitive information, caused by a flaw in the “same host check” feature during a cross protocol redirects. By sending a specially-crafted request, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to obtain credentials information, and use this information to launch further attacks against the affected system.
