CVE-2023-23931: Cipher.update_into can corrupt memory if passed an immutable python object as the outbuf

Gentoo Linux Security Advisory 202407-6 - Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in cryptography, the worst of which could lead to a denial of service. Versions greater than or equal to 42.0.4 are affected.

Ubuntu Security Notice 6539-1 - It was discovered that the python-cryptography Cipher.update_into function would incorrectly accept objects with immutable buffers. This would result in corrupted output, contrary to expectations. This issue only affected Ubuntu 20.04 LTS, Ubuntu 22.04 LTS, and Ubuntu 23.04. It was discovered that python-cryptography incorrectly handled loading certain PKCS7 certificates. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause python-cryptography to crash, resulting in a denial of service. This issue only affected Ubuntu 22.04 LTS, Ubuntu 23.04, and Ubuntu 23.10.

Red Hat Security Advisory 2023-7341-01 - An update is now available for Red Hat Quay 3.

Red Hat Security Advisory 2023-7096-01 - An update for python-cryptography is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8.

Vulnerability in the Sun ZFS Storage Appliance product of Oracle Systems (component: Core). The supported version that is affected is 8.8.60. Difficult to exploit vulnerability allows unauthenticated attacker with network access via HTTP to compromise Sun ZFS Storage Appliance. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized ability to cause a hang or frequently repeatable crash (complete DOS) of Sun ZFS Storage Appliance. CVSS 3.1 Base Score 5.9 (Availability impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H).

A logic flaw exists in Ansible. Whenever a private project is created with incorrect credentials, they are logged in plaintext. This flaw allows an attacker to retrieve the credentials from the log, resulting in the loss of confidentiality, integrity, and availability.

Vulnerability in the Oracle Hyperion Financial Reporting product of Oracle Hyperion (component: Repository). The supported version that is affected is 11.2.13.0.000. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows low privileged attacker with network access via HTTP to compromise Oracle Hyperion Financial Reporting. While the vulnerability is in Oracle Hyperion Financial Reporting, attacks may significantly impact additional products (scope change). Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized access to critical data or complete access to all Oracle Hyperion Financial Reporting accessible data and unauthorized ability to cause a partial denial of service (partial DOS) of Oracle Hyperion Financial Reporting. CVSS 3.1 Base Score 8.5 (Confidentiality and Availability impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:N/A:L).

Dell VxRail, version(s) 8.0.100 and earlier contain a denial-of-service vulnerability in the upgrade functionality. A remote unauthenticated attacker could potentially exploit this vulnerability, leading to degraded performance and system malfunction.

Vulnerability in the Oracle Java SE, Oracle GraalVM Enterprise Edition product of Oracle Java SE (component: Hotspot). Supported versions that are affected are Oracle Java SE: 8u361, 8u361-perf, 11.0.18, 17.0.6; Oracle GraalVM Enterprise Edition: 20.3.9, 21.3.5 and 22.3.1. Difficult to exploit vulnerability allows unauthenticated attacker with network access via multiple protocols to compromise Oracle Java SE, Oracle GraalVM Enterprise Edition. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized access to critical data or complete access to all Oracle Java SE, Oracle GraalVM Enterprise Edition accessible data. Note: This vulnerability applies to Java deployments, typically in clients running sandboxed Java Web Start applications or sandboxed Java applets, that load and run untrusted code (e.g., code that comes from the internet) and rely on the Java sandbox for security. This vulnerability can also be exploited by using APIs in the specified Component, e.g., through...

Previously, `Cipher.update_into` would accept Python objects which implement the buffer protocol, but provide only immutable buffers: ```pycon >>> outbuf = b"\x00" * 32 >>> c = ciphers.Cipher(AES(b"\x00" * 32), modes.ECB()).encryptor() >>> c.update_into(b"\x00" * 16, outbuf) 16 >>> outbuf b'\xdc\x95\xc0x\xa2@\x89\x89\xadH\xa2\x14\x92\x84 \x87\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00' ``` This would allow immutable objects (such as `bytes`) to be mutated, thus violating fundamental rules of Python. This is a soundness bug -- it allows programmers to misuse an API, it cannot be exploited by attacker controlled data alone. This now correctly raises an exception. This issue has been present since `update_into` was originally introduced in cryptography 1.8.
