Red Hat Security Advisory: OpenShift Container Platform 4.19.40 bug fix and security update

Important

A flaw was found in lodash. The fix for CVE-2021-23337 added validation for the variable option in _.template but did not apply the same validation to options.imports key names. Both paths flow into the same Function() constructor sink. Additionally, _.template uses assignInWith to merge imports, which enumerates inherited properties via for..in. If Object.prototype has been polluted by any other vector, the polluted keys are copied into the imports object and passed to Function().

CWE-94 - Improper Control of Generation of Code ('Code Injection')

A flaw was found in gRPC-Go, the Go language implementation of gRPC. This vulnerability, an authorization bypass, is caused by improper input validation of the HTTP/2 `:path` pseudo-header. A remote attacker can exploit this by sending raw HTTP/2 frames with a malformed `:path` that omits the mandatory leading slash. This allows the attacker to bypass defined security policies, potentially leading to unauthorized access to services or information disclosure.

CWE-551 - Incorrect Behavior Order: Authorization Before Parsing and Canonicalization
