google-protobuf 3.9.1-x86-linux
protobuf-java has potential Denial of Service issue
high severity CVE-2024-7254~> 3.25.5
, ~> 4.27.5
, >= 4.28.2
Summary
When parsing unknown fields in the Protobuf Java Lite and Full library, a maliciously crafted message can cause a StackOverflow error and lead to a program crash.
Reporter: Alexis Challande, Trail of Bits Ecosystem Security Team ecosystem@trailofbits.com
Affected versions: This issue affects all versions of both the Java full and lite Protobuf runtimes, as well as Protobuf for Kotlin and JRuby, which themselves use the Java Protobuf runtime.
Severity
CVE-2024-7254 High CVSS4.0 Score 8.7 (NOTE: there may be a delay in publication)
This is a potential Denial of Service. Parsing nested groups as unknown fields with DiscardUnknownFieldsParser or Java Protobuf Lite parser, or against Protobuf map fields, creates unbounded recursions that can be abused by an attacker.
Proof of Concept
For reproduction details, please refer to the unit tests (Protobuf Java LiteTest and CodedInputStreamTest) that identify the specific inputs that exercise this parsing weakness.
Remediation and Mitigation
We have been working diligently to address this issue and have released a mitigation that is available now. Please update to the latest available versions of the following packages:
- protobuf-java (3.25.5, 4.27.5, 4.28.2)
- protobuf-javalite (3.25.5, 4.27.5, 4.28.2)
- protobuf-kotlin (3.25.5, 4.27.5, 4.28.2)
- protobuf-kotlin-lite (3.25.5, 4.27.5, 4.28.2)
- com-protobuf [JRuby gem only] (3.25.5, 4.27.5, 4.28.2)
A potential Denial of Service issue in protobuf-java
high severity CVE-2021-22569>= 3.19.2
Summary
A potential Denial of Service issue in protobuf-java was discovered in the parsing procedure for binary data.
Affected versions: All versions of Java Protobufs (including Kotlin and JRuby) prior to the versions listed below. Protobuf "javalite" users (typically Android) are not affected.
Severity
High - An implementation weakness in how unknown fields are parsed in Java. A small (~800 KB) malicious payload can occupy the parser for several minutes by creating large numbers of short-lived objects that cause frequent, repeated GC pauses.
Proof of Concept
For reproduction details, please refer to the oss-fuzz issue that identifies the specific inputs that exercise this parsing weakness.
Remediation and Mitigation
Please update to the latest available versions of the following packages:
- protobuf-java (3.16.1, 3.18.2, 3.19.2)
- protobuf-kotlin (3.18.2, 3.19.2)
- google-protobuf [JRuby gem only] (3.19.2)
protobuf-java has a potential Denial of Service issue
medium severity CVE-2022-3171~> 3.16.3
, ~> 3.19.6
, ~> 3.20.3
, >= 3.21.7
Summary
A potential Denial of Service issue in protobuf-java
core and lite was
discovered in the parsing procedure for binary and text format data.
Input streams containing multiple instances of non-repeated embedded
messages
with repeated or unknown fields causes objects to be converted back-n-forth
between mutable and immutable forms, resulting in potentially long garbage
collection pauses.
