In ASQ in Stormshield Network Security (SNS) 1.0.0 through 2.7.8, 2.8.0 through 2.16.0, 3.0.0 through 3.7.20, 3.8.0 through 3.11.8, and 4.0.1 through 4.2.2, mishandling of memory management can lead to remote code execution.

On Feb 15, 2023, the following vulnerability in the ClamAV scanning library was disclosed: A vulnerability in the HFS+ partition file parser of ClamAV versions 1.0.0 and earlier, 0.105.1 and earlier, and 0.103.7 and earlier could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to execute arbitrary code. This vulnerability is due to a missing buffer size check that may result in a heap buffer overflow write. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by submitting a crafted HFS+ partition file to be scanned by ClamAV on an affected device. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the ClamAV scanning process, or else crash the process, resulting in a denial of service (DoS) condition. For a description of this vulnerability, see the ClamAV blog ["https://blog.clamav.net/"].

zlib through 1.2.12 has a heap-based buffer over-read or buffer overflow in inflate in inflate.c via a large gzip header extra field. NOTE: only applications that call inflateGetHeader are affected. Some common applications bundle the affected zlib source code but may be unable to call inflateGetHeader (e.g., see the nodejs/node reference).

Stormshield Network Security 2.0.0 through 2.13.0 and 3.0.0 through 3.7.1 has self-XSS in the command line interface of the SNS web server.

The PPP implementation of MPD before 5.9 allows a remote attacker who can send specifically crafted PPP authentication message to cause the daemon to read beyond allocated memory buffer, which would result in a denial of service condition.

An issue was discovered in Stormshield SNS through 4.2.1. A brute-force attack can occur.

An issue was discovered in Stormshield Network Security (SNS) before 5.0.1. TPM authentication information could, in some HA use cases, be shared among administrators, which can cause secret sharing.

The Diffie-Hellman Key Agreement Protocol allows remote attackers (from the client side) to send arbitrary numbers that are actually not public keys, and trigger expensive server-side DHE modular-exponentiation calculations, aka a D(HE)at or D(HE)ater attack. The client needs very little CPU resources and network bandwidth. The attack may be more disruptive in cases where a client can require a server to select its largest supported key size. The basic attack scenario is that the client must claim that it can only communicate with DHE, and the server must be configured to allow DHE.

ASQ in Stormshield Network Security (SNS) 4.3.15 before 4.3.16 and 4.6.x before 4.6.3 allows a crash when analysing a crafted SIP packet.

Flooding SNS firewall versions 3.7.0 to 3.7.29, 3.11.0 to 3.11.17, 4.2.0 to 4.2.10, and 4.3.0 to 4.3.6 with specific forged traffic, can lead to SNS DoS.

The function PEM_read_bio_ex() reads a PEM file from a BIO and parses and decodes the "name" (e.g. "CERTIFICATE"), any header data and the payload data. If the function succeeds then the "name_out", "header" and "data" arguments are populated with pointers to buffers containing the relevant decoded data. The caller is responsible for freeing those buffers. It is possible to construct a PEM file that results in 0 bytes of payload data. In this case PEM_read_bio_ex() will return a failure code but will populate the header argument with a pointer to a buffer that has already been freed. If the caller also frees this buffer then a double free will occur. This will most likely lead to a crash. This could be exploited by an attacker who has the ability to supply malicious PEM files for parsing to achieve a denial of service attack. The functions PEM_read_bio() and PEM_read() are simple wrappers around PEM_read_bio_ex() and therefore these functions are also directly affected. These functions are also called indirectly by a number of other OpenSSL functions including PEM_X509_INFO_read_bio_ex() and SSL_CTX_use_serverinfo_file() which are also vulnerable. Some OpenSSL internal uses of these functions are not vulnerable because the caller does not free the header argument if PEM_read_bio_ex() returns a failure code. These locations include the PEM_read_bio_TYPE() functions as well as the decoders introduced in OpenSSL 3.0. The OpenSSL asn1parse command line application is also impacted by this issue.

An issue was discovered in Stormshield Network Security (SNS) 4.3.x before 4.3.8. The event logging of the ASQ sofbus lacbus plugin triggers the dereferencing of a NULL pointer, leading to a crash of SNS. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability via forged sofbus lacbus traffic to cause a firmware crash.

An issue was discovered in Stormshield Network Security (SNS) SNS 4.3.13 through 4.3.22 before 4.3.23, SNS 4.6.0 through 4.6.9 before 4.6.10, and SNS 4.7.0 through 4.7.1 before 4.7.2. An attacker can overflow the cookie threshold, making an IPsec connection impossible.

Stormshield SNS with versions before 3.7.18, 3.11.6 and 4.1.6 has a memory-management defect in the SNMP plugin that can lead to excessive consumption of memory and CPU resources, and possibly a denial of service.

strongSwan before 5.9.8 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service in the revocation plugin by sending a crafted end-entity (and intermediate CA) certificate that contains a CRL/OCSP URL that points to a server (under the attacker's control) that doesn't properly respond but (for example) just does nothing after the initial TCP handshake, or sends an excessive amount of application data.

In Stormshield Network Security (SNS) before 3.7.25, 3.8.x through 3.11.x before 3.11.13, 4.x before 4.2.10, and 4.3.x before 4.3.5, a flood of connections to the SSLVPN service might lead to saturation of the loopback interface. This could result in the blocking of almost all network traffic, making the firewall unreachable. An attacker could exploit this via forged and properly timed traffic to cause a denial of service.

An issue was discovered in Stormshield Network Security (SNS) before 4.3.17, 4.4.x through 4.6.x before 4.6.4, and 4.7.x before 4.7.1. It affects user accounts for which the password has an equals sign or space character. The serverd process logs such passwords in cleartext, and potentially sends these logs to the Syslog component.

There is a type confusion vulnerability relating to X.400 address processing inside an X.509 GeneralName. X.400 addresses were parsed as an ASN1_STRING but the public structure definition for GENERAL_NAME incorrectly specified the type of the x400Address field as ASN1_TYPE. This field is subsequently interpreted by the OpenSSL function GENERAL_NAME_cmp as an ASN1_TYPE rather than an ASN1_STRING. When CRL checking is enabled (i.e. the application sets the X509_V_FLAG_CRL_CHECK flag), this vulnerability may allow an attacker to pass arbitrary pointers to a memcmp call, enabling them to read memory contents or enact a denial of service. In most cases, the attack requires the attacker to provide both the certificate chain and CRL, neither of which need to have a valid signature. If the attacker only controls one of these inputs, the other input must already contain an X.400 address as a CRL distribution point, which is uncommon. As such, this vulnerability is most likely to only affect applications which have implemented their own functionality for retrieving CRLs over a network.

In Stormshield Network Security (SNS) 1.0.0 through 3.7.36 before 3.7.37, 3.8.0 through 3.11.24 before 3.11.25, 4.0.0 through 4.3.18 before 4.3.19, 4.4.0 through 4.6.5 before 4.6.6, and 4.7.0 before 4.7.1, the usage of a Network object created from an inactive DHCP interface in the filtering slot results in the usage of an object of the :any" type, which may have unexpected results for access control.
