CVE-2024-38826 Cloud Controller Denial of Service Attack

Authenticated users can upload specifically crafted files to leak server resources. This behavior can potentially be used to run a denial of service attack against Cloud Controller. The Cloud Foundry project recommends upgrading the following releases: * Upgrade capi release version to 1.194.0 or greater * Upgrade cf-deployment version to v44.1.0 or greater. This includes a patched capi release

Cloud Foundry unprotected internal endpoints

Unprotected internal endpoints in Cloud Foundry Capi Release 1.226.0 and below, and CF Deployment v54.9.0 and below on all platforms allows any user who has bypassed the firewall to potentially replace droplets and therefore applications allowing them to access secure application information.

With Cloud Foundry Runtime cf-release versions v209 or earlier, UAA Standalone versions 2.2.6 or earlier and Pivotal Cloud Foundry Runtime 1.4.5 or earlier the UAA logout link is susceptible to an open redirect which allows an attacker to insert malicious web page as a redirect parameter.

With Cloud Foundry Runtime cf-release versions v209 or earlier, UAA Standalone versions 2.2.6 or earlier and Pivotal Cloud Foundry Runtime 1.4.5 or earlier the change_email form in UAA is vulnerable to a CSRF attack. This allows an attacker to trigger an e-mail change for a user logged into a cloud foundry instance via a malicious link on a attacker controlled site. This vulnerability is applicable only when using the UAA internal user store for authentication. Deployments enabled for integration via SAML or LDAP are not affected.

Cloud Foundry Runtime cf-release before 216, UAA before 2.5.2, and Pivotal Cloud Foundry (PCF) Elastic Runtime before 1.7.0 allow remote attackers to conduct cross-site request forgery (CSRF) attacks on PWS and log a user into an arbitrary account by leveraging lack of CSRF checks.

The password change functionality in Cloud Foundry Runtime cf-release before 216, UAA before 2.5.2, and Pivotal Cloud Foundry (PCF) Elastic Runtime before 1.7.0 allow attackers to have unspecified impact by leveraging failure to expire existing sessions.

Cloud Foundry Runtime cf-release before 216, UAA before 2.5.2, and Pivotal Cloud Foundry (PCF) Elastic Runtime before 1.7.0 allow attackers to have unspecified impact by leveraging failure to expire password reset links.

Cloud Foundry Runtime cf-release before 216, UAA before 2.5.2, and Pivotal Cloud Foundry (PCF) Elastic Runtime before 1.7.0 allow attackers to have unspecified impact via vectors involving emails with password recovery links, aka "Cross Domain Referer Leakage."

Cloud Foundry Garden-Linux versions prior to v0.333.0 and Elastic Runtime 1.6.x version prior to 1.6.17 contain a flaw in managing container files during Docker image preparation that could be used to delete, corrupt or overwrite host files and directories, including other container filesystems on the host.

It was discovered that cf-release v231 and lower, Pivotal Cloud Foundry Elastic Runtime 1.5.x versions prior to 1.5.17 and Pivotal Cloud Foundry Elastic Runtime 1.6.x versions prior to 1.6.18 do not properly enforce disk quotas in certain cases. An attacker could use an improper disk quota value to bypass enforcement and consume all the disk on DEAs/CELLs causing a potential denial of service for other applications.

The UAA OAuth approval pages in Cloud Foundry v208 to v231, Login-server v1.6 to v1.14, UAA v2.0.0 to v2.7.4.1, UAA v3.0.0 to v3.2.0, UAA-Release v2 to v7 and Pivotal Elastic Runtime 1.6.x versions prior to 1.6.20 are vulnerable to an XSS attack by specifying malicious java script content in either the OAuth scopes (SCIM groups) or SCIM group descriptions.

The Loggregator Traffic Controller endpoints in cf-release v231 and lower, Pivotal Elastic Runtime versions prior to 1.5.19 AND 1.6.x versions prior to 1.6.20 are not cleansing request URL paths when they are invalid and are returning them in the 404 response. This could allow malicious scripts to be written directly into the 404 response.

The UAA reset password flow in Cloud Foundry release v236 and earlier versions, UAA release v3.3.0 and earlier versions, all versions of Login-server, UAA release v10 and earlier versions and Pivotal Elastic Runtime versions prior to 1.7.2 is vulnerable to a brute force attack due to multiple active codes at a given time. This vulnerability is applicable only when using the UAA internal user store for authentication. Deployments enabled for integration via SAML or LDAP are not affected.

SQL injection vulnerability in Pivotal Cloud Foundry (PCF) before 238; UAA 2.x before 2.7.4.4, 3.x before 3.3.0.2, and 3.4.x before 3.4.1; UAA BOSH before 11.2 and 12.x before 12.2; Elastic Runtime before 1.6.29 and 1.7.x before 1.7.7; and Ops Manager 1.7.x before 1.7.8 allows remote authenticated users to execute arbitrary SQL commands via unspecified vectors.

A path traversal vulnerability was identified in the Cloud Foundry component Cloud Controller that affects cf-release versions prior to v208 and Pivotal Cloud Foundry Elastic Runtime versions prior to 1.4.2. Path traversal is the 'outbreak' of a given directory structure through relative file paths in the user input. It aims at accessing files and directories that are stored outside the web root folder, for disallowed reading or even executing arbitrary system commands. An attacker could use a certain parameter of the file path for instance to inject '../' sequences in order to navigate through the file system. In this particular case a remote authenticated attacker can exploit the identified vulnerability in order to upload arbitrary files to the server running a Cloud Controller instance - outside the isolated application container.

With Cloud Foundry Runtime cf-release versions v208 or earlier, UAA Standalone versions 2.2.5 or earlier and Pivotal Cloud Foundry Runtime 1.4.5 or earlier, old Password Reset Links are not expired after the user changes their current email address to a new one. This vulnerability is applicable only when using the UAA internal user store for authentication. Deployments enabled for integration via SAML or LDAP are not affected.

An issue was discovered in Cloud Foundry release v247 through v252, UAA stand-alone release v3.9.0 through v3.11.0, and UAA Bosh Release v21 through v26. There is a potential to subject the UAA OAuth clients to a denial of service attack.

An issue was discovered in Cloud Foundry Foundation cf-release versions prior to v257; UAA release 2.x versions prior to v2.7.4.14, 3.6.x versions prior to v3.6.8, 3.9.x versions prior to v3.9.10, and other versions prior to v3.15.0; and UAA bosh release (uaa-release) 13.x versions prior to v13.12, 24.x versions prior to v24.7, and other versions prior to v30. An attacker can use a blind SQL injection attack to query the contents of the UAA database.

An issue was discovered in Cloud Foundry Foundation cf-release versions prior to v257; UAA release 2.x versions prior to v2.7.4.14, 3.6.x versions prior to v3.6.8, 3.9.x versions prior to v3.9.10, and other versions prior to v3.15.0; and UAA bosh release (uaa-release) 13.x versions prior to v13.12, 24.x versions prior to v24.7, and other versions prior to v30. A vulnerability has been identified with the groups endpoint in UAA allowing users to elevate their privileges.

An issue was discovered in Cloud Foundry Foundation cf-release versions prior to v258; UAA release 2.x versions prior to v2.7.4.15, 3.6.x versions prior to v3.6.9, 3.9.x versions prior to v3.9.11, and other versions prior to v3.16.0; and UAA bosh release (uaa-release) 13.x versions prior to v13.13, 24.x versions prior to v24.8, and other versions prior to v30.1. An authorized user can use a blind SQL injection attack to query the contents of the UAA database, aka "Blind SQL Injection with privileged UAA endpoints."
