Prior to 22.2.0, Twisted SSH client and server implement is able to accept an infinite amount of data for the peer's SSH version identifier. This ends up with a buffer using all the available memory. The attach is a simple as `nc -rv localhost 22 < /dev/zero`. A patch is available in version 22.2.0. There are currently no known workarounds." } ] }, "impact": { "cvss": { "attackComplexity": "LOW", "attackVector": "NETWORK", "availabilityImpact": "HIGH", "baseScore": 7.5, "baseSeverity": "HIGH", "confidentialityImpact": "NONE", "integrityImpact": "NONE", "privilegesRequired": "NONE", "scope": "UNCHANGED", "userInteraction": "NONE", "vectorString": "CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H", "version": "3.1" } }, "problemtype": { "problemtype_data": [ { "description": [ { "lang": "eng", "value": "CWE-120: Buffer Copy without Checking Size of Input ('Classic Buffer Overflow')" } ] } ] }, "references": { "reference_data": [ { "name": "https://github.com/twisted/twisted/security/advisories/GHSA-rv6r-3f5q-9rgx", "refsource": "CONFIRM", "url": "https://github.com/twisted/twisted/security/advisories/GHSA-rv6r-3f5q-9rgx" }, { "name": "https://github.com/twisted/twisted/commit/89c395ee794e85a9657b112c4351417850330ef9", "refsource": "MISC", "url": "https://github.com/twisted/twisted/commit/89c395ee794e85a9657b112c4351417850330ef9" }, { "name": "https://github.com/twisted/twisted/releases/tag/twisted-22.2.0", "refsource": "MISC", "url": "https://github.com/twisted/twisted/releases/tag/twisted-22.2.0" }, { "name": "https://twistedmatrix.com/trac/ticket/10284", "refsource": "MISC", "url": "https://twistedmatrix.com/trac/ticket/10284" }, { "refsource": "MLIST", "name": "[debian-lts-announce] 20220308 [SECURITY] [DLA 2938-1] twisted security update", "url": "https://lists.debian.org/debian-lts-announce/2022/03/msg00009.html" }, { "url": "https://www.oracle.com/security-alerts/cpuapr2022.html", "refsource": "MISC", "name": "https://www.oracle.com/security-alerts/cpuapr2022.html" }, { "refsource": "FEDORA", "name": "FEDORA-2022-71b66d4747", "url": "https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/package-announce@lists.fedoraproject.org/message/GLKHA6WREIVAMBQD7KKWYHPHGGNKMAG6/" }, { "refsource": "FEDORA", "name": "FEDORA-2022-9a489fa494", "url": "https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/package-announce@lists.fedoraproject.org/message/7U6KYDTOLPICAVSR34G2WRYLFBD2YW5K/" }, { "refsource": "GENTOO", "name": "GLSA-202301-02", "url": "https://security.gentoo.org/glsa/202301-02" } ] }, "source": { "advisory": "GHSA-rv6r-3f5q-9rgx", "discovery": "UNKNOWN" } }
