Security Bulletin: Vulnerabilities in Golang Go and MinIO may affect IBM Spectrum Plus Container Backup and Restore for Kubernetes and Red Hat OpenShift (CVE-2022-29804, CVE-2022-30580, CVE-2022-30629, CVE-2022-30634, CVE-2022-35919, CVE-2022-31028)
Discription

## Summary

Multiple vulnerabilities in Golang Go and MinIO may affect IBM Spectrum Protect Plus Container Backup and Restore for Kubernetes and Red Hat OpenShift. Vulnerabilities include bypassing of security restrictions, execution of arbitrary code, obtaining sensitive information, denial of service, and directory traversal.

## Vulnerability Details

** CVEID: **[CVE-2022-29804]()
** DESCRIPTION: **Golang Go could allow a local attacker to bypass security restrictions, caused by a flaw in the filepath.Clean function. By sending a specially-crafted request, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to convert an invalid path to a valid, absolute path.
CVSS Base score: 6.2
CVSS Temporal Score: See: [ https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/229857]() for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N)

** CVEID: **[CVE-2022-30580]()
** DESCRIPTION: **Golang Go could allow a local attacker to execute arbitrary code on the system, caused by a flaw when Cmd.Run, cmd.Start, cmd.Output, or cmd.CombinedOutput are executed when Cmd.Path is unset. By sending a specially-crafted request, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code on the system.
CVSS Base score: 8.4
CVSS Temporal Score: See: [ https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/229858]() for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H)

** CVEID: **[CVE-2022-30629]()
** DESCRIPTION: **Golang Go could allow a remote attacker to obtain sensitive information, caused by an issue with session tickets generated by crypto/tls did not contain a randomly generated ticket_age_add. By comparing ticket ages during session resumption, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to observe TLS handshakes information to correlate successive connections.
CVSS Base score: 7.5
CVSS Temporal Score: See: [ https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/229859]() for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N)

** CVEID: **[CVE-2022-30634]()
** DESCRIPTION: **Golang Go is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by improper input validation. By sending a specially-crafted request using large buffers, a remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to cause rand.Read to hang,a and results in a denial of service condition.
CVSS Base score: 7.5
CVSS Temporal Score: See: [ https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/229860]() for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H)

** CVEID: **[CVE-2022-35919]()
** DESCRIPTION: **MinIO could allow a remote authenticated attacker to traverse directories on the system, caused by improper validation of user requests by the ServerUpdate API. An attacker could send a specially-crafted request to selectively trigger an error using the admin:ServerUpdate action and view arbitrary files that are readable by the MinIO process on the system.
CVSS Base score: 7.4
CVSS Temporal Score: See: [ https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/232582]() for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:L)

** CVEID: **[CVE-2022-31028]()
** DESCRIPTION: **MinIO is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by an issue with an unending go-routine buildup while keeping connections established. By sending a specially-crafted request using anonymous HTTP clients, a remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to cause a denial of service condition.
CVSS Base score: 7.5
CVSS Temporal Score: See: [ https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/228045]() for the current score.

## Disclaimer

According to the Forum of Incident Response and Security Teams (FIRST), the Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) is an “industry open standard designed to convey vulnerability severity and help to determine urgency and priority of response.” IBM PROVIDES THE CVSS SCORES “”AS IS”” WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, INCLUDING THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. CUSTOMERS ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR ASSESSING THE IMPACT OF ANY ACTUAL OR POTENTIAL SECURITY VULNERABILITY. In addition to other efforts to address potential vulnerabilities, IBM periodically updates the record of components contained in our product offerings. As part of that effort, if IBM identifies previously unidentified packages in a product/service inventory, we address relevant vulnerabilities regardless of CVE date. Inclusion of an older CVEID does not demonstrate that the referenced product has been used by IBM since that date, nor that IBM was aware of a vulnerability as of that date. We are making clients aware of relevant vulnerabilities as we become aware of them. “Affected Products and Versions” referenced in IBM Security Bulletins are intended to be only products and versions that are supported by IBM and have not passed their end-of-support or warranty date. Thus, failure to reference unsupported or extended-support products and versions in this Security Bulletin does not constitute a determination by IBM that they are unaffected by the vulnerability. Reference to one or more unsupported versions in this Security Bulletin shall not create an obligation for IBM to provide fixes for any unsupported or extended-support products or versions.
