CVE-2022-31020 (GCVE-0-2022-31020)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2022-09-06 16:30 – Updated: 2025-04-23 17:14
VLAI?
Summary
Indy Node is the server portion of a distributed ledger purpose-built for decentralized identity. In versions 1.12.4 and prior, the `pool-upgrade` request handler in Indy-Node allows an improperly authenticated attacker to remotely execute code on nodes within the network. The `pool-upgrade` request handler in Indy-Node 1.12.5 has been updated to properly authenticate pool-upgrade transactions before any processing is performed by the request handler. The transactions are further sanitized to prevent remote code execution. As a workaround, endorsers should not create DIDs for untrusted users. A vulnerable ledger should configure `auth_rules` to prevent new DIDs from being written to the ledger until the network can be upgraded.
Severity ?
8.8 (High)

El administrador de peticiones \\\"pool-upgrade\\\" en Indy-Node versi\u00f3n 1.12.5, ha sido actualizado para autenticar apropiadamente las transacciones de pool-upgrade antes de que el administrador de peticiones las lleve a cabo. Las transacciones son saneadas adem\u00e1s para evitar una ejecuci\u00f3n de c\u00f3digo remota. Como mitigaci\u00f3n, los endosantes no deber\u00edan crear DIDs para usuarios no confiables. Un libro mayor vulnerable deber\u00eda configurar \\\"auth_rules\\\" para evitar que sean escritos nuevos DID en el libro mayor hasta que la red pueda ser actualizada.\\n\"}],\"metrics\":{\"cvssMetricV31\":[{\"source\":\"security-advisories@github.com\",\"type\":\"Secondary\",\"cvssData\":{\"version\":\"3.1\",\"vectorString\":\"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H\",\"baseScore\":8.8,\"baseSeverity\":\"HIGH\",\"attackVector\":\"NETWORK\",\"attackComplexity\":\"LOW\",\"privilegesRequired\":\"LOW\",\"userInteraction\":\"NONE\",\"scope\":\"UNCHANGED\",\"confidentialityImpact\":\"HIGH\",\"integrityImpact\":\"HIGH\",\"availabilityImpact\":\"HIGH\"},\"exploitabilityScore\":2.8,\"impactScore\":5.9},{\"source\":\"nvd@nist.gov\",\"type\":\"Primary\",\"cvssData\":{\"version\":\"3.1\",\"vectorString\":\"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H\",\"baseScore\":8.8,\"baseSeverity\":\"HIGH\",\"attackVector\":\"NETWORK\",\"attackComplexity\":\"LOW\",\"privilegesRequired\":\"LOW\",\"userInteraction\":\"NONE\",\"scope\":\"UNCHANGED\",\"confidentialityImpact\":\"HIGH\",\"integrityImpact\":\"HIGH\",\"availabilityImpact\":\"HIGH\"},\"exploitabilityScore\":2.8,\"impactScore\":5.9}]},\"weaknesses\":[{\"source\":\"security-advisories@github.com\",\"type\":\"Primary\",\"description\":[{\"lang\":\"en\",\"value\":\"CWE-20\"},{\"lang\":\"en\",\"value\":\"CWE-287\"}]}],\"configurations\":[{\"nodes\":[{\"operator\":\"OR\",\"negate\":false,\"cpeMatch\":[{\"vulnerable\":true,\"criteria\":\"cpe:2.3:a:linuxfoundation:indy-node:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*\",\"versionEndIncluding\":\"1.12.4\",\"matchCriteriaId\":\"D7BDE3C0-0C97-4373-9BA4-EB3A9D1D177D\"}]}]}],\"references\":[{\"url\":\"https://github.com/hyperledger/indy-node/commit/fe507474f77084faef4539101e2bbb4d508a97f5\",\"source\":\"security-advisories@github.com\",\"tags\":[\"Patch\",\"Third Party Advisory\"]},{\"url\":\"https://github.com/hyperledger/indy-node/releases/tag/v1.12.5\",\"source\":\"security-advisories@github.com\",\"tags\":[\"Release Notes\",\"Third Party Advisory\"]},{\"url\":\"https://github.com/hyperledger/indy-node/security/advisories/GHSA-r6v9-p59m-gj2p\",\"source\":\"security-advisories@github.com\",\"tags\":[\"Third Party Advisory\"]},{\"url\":\"https://github.com/hyperledger/indy-node/commit/fe507474f77084faef4539101e2bbb4d508a97f5\",\"source\":\"af854a3a-2127-422b-91ae-364da2661108\",\"tags\":[\"Patch\",\"Third Party Advisory\"]},{\"url\":\"https://github.com/hyperledger/indy-node/releases/tag/v1.12.5\",\"source\":\"af854a3a-2127-422b-91ae-364da2661108\",\"tags\":[\"Release Notes\",\"Third Party Advisory\"]},{\"url\":\"https://github.com/hyperledger/indy-node/security/advisories/GHSA-r6v9-p59m-gj2p\",\"source\":\"af854a3a-2127-422b-91ae-364da2661108\",\"tags\":[\"Third Party Advisory\"]}]}}",
