Vulnerability Details

CVEID:CVE-2022-21698
**DESCRIPTION:**Prometheus Go client library (client_golang ) is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by a flaw when handling requests with non-standard HTTP methods. By sending specially-crafted HTTP requests, a remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to cause a memory exhaustion.
CVSS Base score: 7.5
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/219707 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H)

CVEID:CVE-2021-31525
**DESCRIPTION:**Golang Go is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by a flaw in net/http. By sending a specially-crafted header to ReadRequest or ReadResponse. Server, Transport, and Client, a remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to cause a (panic) denial of service condition.
CVSS Base score: 7.5
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/202709 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H)

CVEID:CVE-2020-8564
**DESCRIPTION:**Kubernetes could allow a local authenticated attacker to obtain sensitive information, caused by a flaw when pull secrets are stored in a Docker config file and loglevel >= 4. By gaining access to the configuration files, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to obtain full secrets or other credentials in docker, and use this information to launch further attacks against the affected system.
CVSS Base score: 4.7
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/189924 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N)

CVEID:CVE-2019-11840
**DESCRIPTION:**Golang golang-googlecode-go-crypto could allow a remote attacker to obtain sensitive information, caused by a flaw in the amd64 implementation of golang.org/x/crypto/salsa20 and golang.org/x/crypto/salsa20/salsa. By generating a specially-crafted keystream, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to obtain sensitive information.
CVSS Base score: 5.3
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/160943 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N)

CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/178254 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:L)

CVEID:CVE-2021-38561
**DESCRIPTION:**Golang Go Text is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by an improper index calculation that allows an incorrectly formatted language tag to panic Parse. A remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to trigger an out-of-bounds read and cause a denial of service.
CVSS Base score: 7.5
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/219760 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H)

CVEID:CVE-2020-14040
**DESCRIPTION:**Go Language x/text package is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by a vulnerability in encoding/unicode in the UTF-16 decoder.
