Your fortnightly rundown of AppSec vulnerabilities, new hacking techniques, and other cybersecurity news

The OpenSSL Project has released fixes to address several security flaws, including a high-severity bug in the open source encryption toolkit that could potentially expose users to malicious attacks. Tracked as CVE-2023-0286, the issue relates to a case of type confusion that may permit an adversary to "read memory contents or enact a denial-of-service," the maintainers said in an advisory. The

Ubuntu Security Notice 5845-2 - USN-5845-1 fixed several vulnerabilities in OpenSSL. This update provides the corresponding update for Ubuntu 14.04 ESM and Ubuntu 16.04 ESM. David Benjamin discovered that OpenSSL incorrectly handled X.400 address processing. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to read arbitrary memory contents or cause OpenSSL to crash, resulting in a denial of service.

### Impact Prometheus and its exporters can be secured by a web.yml file that specifies usernames and hashed passwords for basic authentication. Passwords are hashed with bcrypt, which means that even if you have access to the hash, it is very hard to find the original password back. However, a flaw in the way this mechanism was implemented in the exporter toolkit makes it possible with people who know the hashed password to authenticate against Prometheus. A request can be forged by an attacker to poison the internal cache used to cache the computation of hashes and make subsequent requests successful. This cache is used in both happy and unhappy scenarios in order to limit side channel attacks that could tell an attacker if a user is present in the file or not. ### Patches The exporter-toolkit v0.7.3 and v0.8.2 have been released to address this issue. ### Workarounds There is no workaround but attacker must have access to the hashed password, stored in disk, to bypass the au...

Prometheus Exporter Toolkit is a utility package to build exporters. Prior to versions 0.7.2 and 0.8.2, i someone has access to a Prometheus web.yml file and users' bcrypted passwords, they can bypass security by poisoning the built-in authentication cache. Versions 0.7.2 and 0.8.2 contain a fix for the issue. There is no workaround, but attacker must have access to the hashed password to use this functionality.
