Red Hat Security Advisory 2023-5526-01 - The Berkeley Internet Name Domain is an implementation of the Domain Name System protocols. BIND includes a DNS server ; a resolver library ; and tools for verifying that the DNS server is operating correctly. Issues addressed include a denial of service vulnerability.

A vulnerability was found in libX11 due to an infinite loop within the PutSubImage() function. This flaw allows a local user to consume all available system resources and cause a denial of service condition.

A vulnerability has been identified in SIMATIC CP 1604 (All versions), SIMATIC CP 1616 (All versions), SIMATIC CP 1623 (All versions), SIMATIC CP 1626 (All versions), SIMATIC CP 1628 (All versions). Affected devices insufficiently control continuous mapping of direct memory access (DMA) requests. This could allow local attackers with administrative privileges to cause a denial of service situation on the host. A physical power cycle is required to get the system working again.

Summary Summary Beginning in September 2023, Microsoft was notified by industry partners about a newly identified Distributed Denial-of-Service (DDoS) attack technique being used in the wild targeting HTTP/2 protocol. This vulnerability (CVE-2023-44487) impacts any internet exposed HTTP/2 endpoints. As an industry leader, Microsoft promptly opened an investigation and subsequently began working with industry partners for a coordinated disclosure and mitigation plan.

**According to the CVSS metric, privileges required is low (PR:L). What does that mean for this vulnerability?** Any authenticated attacker could trigger this vulnerability. It does not require admin or other elevated privileges.

**Where can I find more information?** Please see the GitHub Advisory relating to this vulnerability here: https://github.com/microsoft/msquic/security/advisories/GHSA-fr44-546p-7xcp#event-111622

**According to the CVSS metric, successful exploitation of this vulnerability could lead to total loss of availability (A:H)? What does that mean for this vulnerability?** An attacker could impact availability of the service resulting in Denial of Service (DoS).

The following mitigating factors might be helpful in your situation: This vulnerability requires a non-default firewall setting of **EnablePacketQueue**. With the default configuration of **EnablePacketQueue** as **Not configured (none)**, systems are not vulnerable. This setting can be set through Intune/MDM or a group policy setting. **EnablePacketQueue** is an Intune Endpoint Protection feature, but also a standard firewall feature. For more information, see Firewall CSP.
