Red Hat Security Advisory: OpenShift Container Platform 4.13.70 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 Axios, a promise-based HTTP client, specifically in its Node.js HTTP adapter. When Axios is configured to use an authenticated proxy and follows a redirect, it may inadvertently send the Proxy-Authorization header, containing proxy credentials, to the redirect target. This can lead to the disclosure of sensitive proxy credentials to an unintended remote server.

CWE-201 - Insertion of Sensitive Information Into Sent Data

A flaw was found in Axios. During specific proxy-to-direct redirect flows in the Node.js HTTP adapter, a remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability. The Proxy-Authorization header, which contains proxy credentials and is intended only for the outbound proxy, may be forwarded to the final redirected origin. This can lead to the disclosure of sensitive proxy credentials to an unintended third party.

CWE-201 - Insertion of Sensitive Information Into Sent Data

A flaw was found in Axios, a promise-based HTTP client. When using the fetch adapter, Axios did not properly enforce configured request and response size limits. This vulnerability allows a remote attacker, through a malicious or compromised server, or by supplying a large data URL, to send or receive oversized data bodies. This can lead to resource exhaustion in server-side applications, resulting in a Denial of Service (DoS).

CWE-770 - Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling

A flaw was found in Axios, a promise-based HTTP client. This vulnerability occurs because Axios does not properly normalize IPv4-mapped IPv6 addresses. When a NO_PROXY setting is configured to block direct access to specific IPv4 addresses, an attacker can bypass this restriction by using the IPv4-mapped IPv6 form of the address in a request URL. This allows the request to be routed through the proxy, potentially exposing internal services or sensitive information that should otherwise be inaccessible.

CWE-289 - Authentication Bypass by Alternate Name
