CVE-2024-3187 (GCVE-0-2024-3187)
Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2024-10-17 07:34 – Updated: 2024-10-17 14:40
VLAI
EPSS
VEX
Summary
This issue tracks two CWE-416 Use After Free (UAF) and one CWE-415 Double Free vulnerabilities in Goahead versions <= 6.0.0. These are caused by JST values not being nulled when freed during parsing of JST templates. If the ME_GOAHEAD_JAVASCRIPT flag is enabled, a remote attacker with the privileges to modify JavaScript template (JST) files could exploit this by providing malicious templates. This may lead to memory corruption, potentially causing a Denial of Service (DoS) or, in rare cases, code execution, though the latter is highly context-dependent.

Summary
Multiple CWE-476 NULL Pointer Dereference vulnerabilities were found in GoAhead Web Server up to version 6.0.0 when compiled with the ME_GOAHEAD_REPLACE_MALLOC flag. Without a memory notifier for allocation failures, remote attackers can exploit these vulnerabilities by sending malicious requests, leading to a crash and Denial of Service (DoS).

CVE-2021-43298 (GCVE-0-2021-43298)
Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2022-01-25 19:11 – Updated: 2024-08-04 03:55
VLAI
EPSS
VEX
Summary
The code that performs password matching when using 'Basic' HTTP authentication does not use a constant-time memcmp and has no rate-limiting. This means that an unauthenticated network attacker can brute-force the HTTP basic password, byte-by-byte, by recording the webserver's response time until the unauthorized (401) response.
Severity
No CVSS data available.
