CVE-2022-2047

Description

A flaw was found in Eclipse Jetty. When parsing the authority segment of an HTTP scheme URI, the Jetty HttpURI class improperly detects an invalid input as a hostname. This issue can lead to failures in a Proxy scenario.

Statement

In Red Hat Satellite jetty was used to build index files to search documentation. Nowadays in Satellite 6.9 and 6.10 jetty dependency is not in use and there is no access to it, so there is no way this vulnerability can be exploitable. Therefore Satellite supported versions are not affected.

Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) Score Details

Info alert:Important note

CVSS scores for open source components depend on vendor-specific factors (e.g. version or build chain). Therefore, Red Hat's score and impact rating can be different from NVD and other vendors. Red Hat remains the authoritative CVE Naming Authority (CNA) source for its products and services (see Red Hat classifications).

Understanding the Weakness (CWE)

Availability

Technical Impact: DoS: Crash, Exit, or Restart; DoS: Resource Consumption (CPU); DoS: Resource Consumption (Memory)

An attacker could provide unexpected values and cause a program crash or arbitrary control of resource allocation, leading to excessive consumption of resources such as memory and CPU.

Confidentiality

Technical Impact: Read Memory; Read Files or Directories

An attacker could read confidential data if they are able to control resource references.

Integrity,Confidentiality,Availability

Technical Impact: Modify Memory; Execute Unauthorized Code or Commands

An attacker could use malicious input to modify data or possibly alter control flow in unexpected ways, including arbitrary command execution.
