Vulnerability Details

CVEID:CVE-2022-29804
**DESCRIPTION:**Golang Go could allow a local attacker to bypass security restrictions, caused by a flaw in the filepath.Clean function. By sending a specially-crafted request, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to convert an invalid path to a valid, absolute path.
CVSS Base score: 6.2
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/229857 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N)

CVEID:CVE-2022-30580
**DESCRIPTION:**Golang Go could allow a local attacker to execute arbitrary code on the system, caused by a flaw when Cmd.Run, cmd.Start, cmd.Output, or cmd.CombinedOutput are executed when Cmd.Path is unset. By sending a specially-crafted request, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code on the system.
CVSS Base score: 8.4
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/229858 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H)

CVEID:CVE-2022-30629
**DESCRIPTION:**Golang Go could allow a remote attacker to obtain sensitive information, caused by an issue with session tickets generated by crypto/tls did not contain a randomly generated ticket_age_add. By comparing ticket ages during session resumption, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to observe TLS handshakes information to correlate successive connections.
CVSS Base score: 7.5
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/229859 for the current score.

CVEID:CVE-2022-30634
**DESCRIPTION:**Golang Go is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by improper input validation. By sending a specially-crafted request using large buffers, a remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to cause rand.Read to hang,a and results in a denial of service condition.
CVSS Base score: 7.5
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/229860 for the current score.
