CVE Database

A format string vulnerability in an affected service interface of HPE Networking ClearPass Policy Manager could allow an unauthenticated remote attacker to corrupt process memory. Successful exploitation could allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code.

Use of an Externally Controlled Format String in the ASUS Router modules allow a remote authenticated user to execute arbitrary commands via a crafted file uploaded through the web management interface.

Uncontrolled Format string vulnerabilities exist in the affected interface of HPE Networking Instant ON APs that could allow an unauthenticated remote attacker to run arbitrary commands on the underlying host. Successful exploitation could result in a Denial-of-service or potential remote code execution.

Use of Externally-Controlled Format String vulnerability in RTI Connext Professional (Core Libraries) allows Format String Injection. This issue affects Connext Professional: from 7.5.0 before 7.7.0.1, from 7.3.0.10 before 7.3.1.6.

Issue summary: OpenSSL CMP response validation passed an unexpected response sender distinguished name directly as the format string to `ERR_raise_data()`. Impact summary: A malicious or intercepted CMP endpoint can crash a CMP client that enforces an expected sender or uses a pinned server certificate whose subject becomes the default expected sender. CWE: CWE-134 (Use of Externally-Controlled Format String) Description: When validating a received CMP message, ossl_cmp_msg_check_update() converts the peer-supplied sender distinguished name with X509_NAME_oneline() and passes it directly as the format argument to ERR_raise_data(). Percent characters survive the conversion, so a sender DN such as "CN=%s%n" reaches BIO_vsnprintf() as an attacker-controlled format string with no matching variadic arguments. This path is only reached when the caller configures an expected sender or pins a server certificate, which is the normal configuration for a CMP client validating server responses. Since the attacker controls the format string but none of the variadic arguments, such specifiers as %s and %n dereference or write through unrelated stack contents and crash the client. The reliable consequence is a denial of service, when the response comes from a malicious or intercepted CMP endpoint. There is no controlled memory write, arbitrary-address read, or reliable path to remote code execution. FIPS impact: no No FIPS modules are affected by this issue, as the CMP protocol implementation is outside the OpenSSL FIPS module boundary.

IBM AIX 7.2, and 7.3 and IBM PowerVM VIOS 4.1 could allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code due to a format string vulnerability.
