A Vulnerability in Check Point Security Gateways Could Allow for Credential Access

Read Time:37 Second

A vulnerability has been discovered in Check Point Security Gateway Products that could allow for credential access. A Check Point Security Gateway sits between an organization’s environment and the Internet to enforce policy and block threats and malware. Successful exploitation of this vulnerability could allow for credential access to local accounts due to an arbitrary file read vulnerability. Other sensitive files such as SSH keys and certificates may also be read. Depending on the privileges associated with the accounts, an attacker could then install programs; view, change, or delete data; or create new accounts with full user rights. Local accounts that are configured to have fewer rights on the system could be less impacted than those that operate with administrative rights.

USN-6804-1: GNU C Library vulnerabilities

Read Time:46 Second

It was discovered that GNU C Library nscd daemon contained a stack-based buffer
overflow. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service
(system crash). (CVE-2024-33599)

It was discovered that GNU C Library nscd daemon did not properly check the
cache content, leading to a null pointer dereference vulnerability. A local
attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash).
(CVE-2024-33600)

It was discovered that GNU C Library nscd daemon did not properly validate
memory allocation in certain situations, leading to a null pointer dereference
vulnerability. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service
(system crash). (CVE-2024-33601)

It was discovered that GNU C Library nscd daemon did not properly handle memory
allocation, which could lead to memory corruption. A local attacker could use
this to cause a denial of service (system crash). (CVE-2024-33602)
