Affected: AlmaLinux:8: gnutls, AlmaLinux:8: gnutls-c++, AlmaLinux:8: gnutls-dane, AlmaLinux:8: gnutls-devel, AlmaLinux:8: gnutls-utils, AlmaLinux:8: nettle, AlmaLinux:8: nettle-devel

The gnutls packages provide the GNU Transport Layer Security (GnuTLS) library, which implements cryptographic algorithms and protocols such as SSL, TLS, and DTLS.

Nettle is a cryptographic library that is designed to fit easily in almost any context: In crypto toolkits for object-oriented languages, such as C++, Python, or Pike, in applications like LSH or GNUPG, or even in kernel space.

The following packages have been upgraded to a later upstream version: gnutls (3.6.16). (BZ#1956783)

Security Fix(es):

* nettle: Remote crash in RSA decryption via manipulated ciphertext (CVE-2021-3580)

* gnutls: Use after free in client key_share extension (CVE-2021-20231)

* gnutls: Use after free in client_send_params in lib/ext/pre_shared_key.c (CVE-2021-20232)

A flaw was found in the way nettle's RSA decryption functions handled specially crafted ciphertext. An attacker could use this flaw to provide a manipulated ciphertext leading to application crash and denial of service.

expat 2.1.0 and earlier does not properly handle entities expansion unless an application developer uses the XML_SetEntityDeclHandler function, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (resource consumption), send HTTP requests to intranet servers, or read arbitrary files via a crafted XML document, aka an XML External Entity (XXE) issue. NOTE: it could be argued that because expat already provides the ability to disable external entity expansion, the responsibility for resolving this issue lies with application developers; according to this argument, this entry should be REJECTed, and each affected application would need its own CVE. shadow: TOCTOU (time-of-check time-of-use) race condition when copying and removing directory trees run-mailcap in the Debian mime-support package before 3.52-1+deb7u1 allows context-dependent attackers to execute arbitrary commands via shell metacharacters in a filename. In Python (aka CPython) up to 3.10.8, the mailcap module does not add escape characters into commands discovered in the system mailcap file. This may allow attackers to inject shell commands into applications that call mailcap.findmatch with untrusted input (if they lack validation of user-provided filenames or arguments). The fix is also back-ported to 3.7, 3.8, 3.9 Use-after-free vulnerability in bzip2recover in bzip2 1.0.6 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a crafted bzip2 file, related to block ends set to before the start o…

PLCnext Control AXC F x152 is certified according to IEC 62443-4-1 and IEC 62443-4-2. This certification requires that all third-party components used in the firmware are regularly checked for known vulnerabilities.

Firmware components in version 2021.06 had already been updated. For the 2022.0 LTS version more firmware components have been updated implicitly fixing the vulnerabilities listed. The vulnerabilities listed above have not been individually verified in terms of actual impact and/or limitations in combination with the affected products listed. The current LTS release 2022.0 LTS contains updates of integrated third-party libraries, SDKs and other third-party software to address these issues nevertheless.

UPDATE A (April 4th, 2022): Added RFC 4072 (Art. No. 1051328) and fixed affected version of AXC F 3152
