CISA Warns on Unpatched ICS Vulnerabilities Lurking in Critical Infrastructure

The advisory comes the same week as a warning from the EU's ENISA about potential for ransomware attacks on OT systems in the transportation sector.

GHSA-5mqj-xc49-246p: crewjam/saml vulnerable to Denial Of Service Via Deflate Decompression Bomb

Our use of flate.NewReader does not limit the size of the input. The user could pass more than 1 MB of data in the HTTP request to the processing functions, which will be decompressed server-side using the Deflate algorithm. Therefore, after repeating the same request multiple times, it is possible to achieve a reliable crash since the operating system kills the process.

CVE-2023-28431: Increase modexp gas cost when mod is even by sorpaas · Pull Request #1017 · paritytech/frontier

Frontier is an Ethereum compatibility layer for Substrate. Frontier's `modexp` precompile uses `num-bigint` crate under the hood. In the implementation prior to pull request 1017, the cases for modulus being even and modulus being odd are treated separately. Odd modulus uses the fast Montgomery multiplication, and even modulus uses the slow plain power algorithm. This gas cost discrepancy was not accounted for in the `modexp` precompile, leading to possible denial of service attacks. No fixes for `num-bigint` are currently available, and thus this issue is fixed in the short term by raising the gas costs for even modulus, and in the long term fixing it in `num-bigint` or switching to another modexp implementation. The short-term fix for Frontier is deployed at pull request 1017. There are no known workarounds aside from applying the fix.

Chinese Warships Suspected of Signal-Jamming Passenger Jets

Attackers claiming to be part of the Chinese navy are making calls to commercial Qantas pilots midair, while GPS, comms systems, and altimeter instruments are all experiencing denial of service.

CVE-2023-0464

A security vulnerability has been identified in all supported versions of OpenSSL related to the verification of X.509 certificate chains that include policy constraints. Attackers may be able to exploit this vulnerability by creating a malicious certificate chain that triggers exponential use of computational resources, leading to a denial-of-service (DoS) attack on affected systems. Policy processing is disabled by default but can be enabled by passing the `-policy' argument to the command line utilities or by calling the `X509_VERIFY_PARAM_set1_policies()' function.
