CVE-2018-14404 – libxml2: NULL pointer dereference in xmlXPathCompOpEval() function in xpath.c
https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2018-14404
A NULL pointer dereference vulnerability exists in the xpath.c:xmlXPathCompOpEval() function of libxml2 through 2.9.8 when parsing an invalid XPath expression in the XPATH_OP_AND or XPATH_OP_OR case. Applications processing untrusted XSL format inputs with the use of the libxml2 library may be vulnerable to a denial of service attack due to a crash of the application. Existe una vulnerabilidad de desreferencia de puntero NULL en la función xpath.c:xmlXPathCompOpEval() de libxml2 hasta la versión 2.9.8 al analizar una expresión XPath inválida en los casos XPATH_OP_AND o XPATH_OP_OR. Las aplicaciones que procesan entradas de formato XLS no fiables mediante la biblioteca libxml2 podrían ser vulnerables a un ataque de denegación de servicio (DoS) debido al cierre inesperado de la aplicación. A null pointer dereference vulnerability exists in the xpath.c:xmlXPathCompOpEval() function of libxml2 when parsing invalid XPath expression. • https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2019:1543 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=901817 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1595985 https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/libxml2/issues/10 https://lists.debian.org/debian-lts-announce/2018/09/msg00035.html https://lists.debian.org/debian-lts-announce/2020/09/msg00009.html https://security.netapp.com/advisory/ntap-20190719-0002 https://usn.ubuntu.com/3739-1 https://usn.ubuntu.com/3739-2 https://acc • CWE-476: NULL Pointer Dereference •
CVE-2018-9251 – libxml2: infinite loop in xz_decomp function in xzlib.c
https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2018-9251
The xz_decomp function in xzlib.c in libxml2 2.9.8, if --with-lzma is used, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop) via a crafted XML file that triggers LZMA_MEMLIMIT_ERROR, as demonstrated by xmllint, a different vulnerability than CVE-2015-8035. La función xz_decomp en xzlib.c en libxml2 2.9.8, si se emplea --with-lzma, permite que atacantes remotos provoquen una denegación de servicio (bucle infinito) mediante un archivo XML manipulado que desencadena LZMA_MEMLIMIT_ERROR, tal y como queda demostrado por xmllint. Esta vulnerabilidad es diferente de CVE-2015-8035. • https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=794914 https://lists.debian.org/debian-lts-announce/2018/09/msg00035.html https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2018-9251 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1565318 • CWE-835: Loop with Unreachable Exit Condition ('Infinite Loop') •
