Red Hat Security Advisory: Red Hat OpenShift Pipelines Release 1.20.5

Important

A flaw was found in undici. A remote attacker can exploit this vulnerability by sending a specially crafted compressed frame, known as a "decompression bomb," during permessage-deflate decompression. The undici WebSocket client does not properly limit the size of decompressed data, leading to unbounded memory consumption. This can cause the Node.js process to exhaust available memory, resulting in a denial of service (DoS) where the process crashes or becomes unresponsive.

CWE-770 - Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling

A flaw was found in undici. A remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending a specially crafted WebSocket frame with an extremely large 64-bit length. This causes undici's ByteParser to overflow its internal calculations, leading to an invalid state and a fatal TypeError. The primary consequence is a Denial of Service (DoS), which terminates the process.

CWE-248 - Uncaught Exception

A flaw was found in the undici WebSocket client. A remote malicious server can exploit this vulnerability by sending a WebSocket frame with an invalid `server_max_window_bits` parameter within the permessage-deflate extension. This improper validation causes the client's Node.js process to terminate, leading to a denial-of-service (DoS) condition for the client.

CWE-248 - Uncaught Exception

A flaw was found in Immutable.js, a library for persistent immutable data structures. This vulnerability, known as Prototype Pollution, allows an attacker with low privileges to inject unwanted properties into core JavaScript object prototypes without user interaction. By manipulating specific APIs such as mergeDeep(), mergeDeepWith(), merge(), Map.toJS(), and Map.toObject(), a remote attacker could potentially execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (DoS).

CWE-915 - Improperly Controlled Modification of Dynamically-Determined Object Attributes

A flaw was found in gRPC-Go, the Go language implementation of gRPC. This vulnerability, an authorization bypass, is caused by improper input validation of the HTTP/2 `:path` pseudo-header. A remote attacker can exploit this by sending raw HTTP/2 frames with a malformed `:path` that omits the mandatory leading slash. This allows the attacker to bypass defined security policies, potentially leading to unauthorized access to services or information disclosure.

CWE-551 - Incorrect Behavior Order: Authorization Before Parsing and Canonicalization

A flaw was found in Tekton Pipelines, specifically in the Tekton Pipelines git resolver. A tenant with permissions to create ResolutionRequests can exploit a path traversal vulnerability via the `pathInRepo` parameter. This allows the tenant to read arbitrary files from the resolver pod's filesystem, leading to information disclosure, including sensitive ServiceAccount tokens. The contents of these files are returned in a base64-encoded format.

CWE-22 - Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory ('Path Traversal')

A flaw was found in Go JOSE, a library for handling JSON Web Encryption (JWE) objects. A remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability by providing a specially crafted JWE object. When decrypting such an object, if a key wrapping algorithm is specified but the encrypted key field is empty, the application can crash. This leads to a denial of service (DoS), making the affected service unavailable to legitimate users.

CWE-131 - Incorrect Calculation of Buffer Size
