**chrony**

Dates: June - September 2017

chrony is an implementation of the Network Time Protocol, used either to set the time on a particular machine or act as an NTP server for other machines on the network. The audit was performed by Cure53, and kindly funded by CII.

The team found the following problems:

*   2 Low

Cure53 write: The overwhelmingly positive result of this security assignment performed by three Cure53 testers can be clearly inferred from a marginal number and low-risk nature of the findings amassed in this report. Withstanding eleven full days of on-remote testing in August of 2017 means that Chrony is robust, strong, and developed with security in mind. The software boasts sound design and is secure across all tested areas. It is quite safe to assume that untested software in the Chrony family is of a similarly exceptional quality. In general, the software proved to be well-structured and marked by the right abstractions at the appropriate locations. While the functional scope of the software is quite wide, the actual implementation is surprisingly elegant and of a minimal and just necessary complexity. In sum, the Chrony NTP software stands solid and can be seen as trustworthy.

The Cure53 team were extremely impressed with the quality of the dovecot code. They wrote: "Despite much effort and thoroughly all-encompassing approach, the Cure53 testers only managed to assert the excellent security-standing of Dovecot. More specifically, only three minor security issues have been found in the codebase, thus translating to an exceptionally good outcome for Dovecot, and a true testament to the fact that keeping security promises is at the core of the Dovecot development and operations."

**2016****PCRE**

Dates: October 2015 - June 2016

PCRE (Perl-Compatible Regular Expressions) is a C library for implementing regular expressions in a codebase. It is used in various open source projects including Exim, Apache, PHP and KDE, as well as Apple Safari. We audited PCRE2, a newer version which is currently less commonly-used but which is expected to become increasingly common. The audit was performed by Cure53.

The team found the following problems:

*   5 Medium
*   20 Low

**libjpeg-turbo**

Dates: November 2015 - June 2016

libjpeg-turbo is a fork of the libjpeg codebase which is particularly focussed on speed, and on compatibility with the most commonly-used standard profiles of JPEG. It is used by a number of open source projects, including Chrome, LibreOffice, Firefox and various flavours of VNC. The audit was performed by Cure53.

The team found the following problems:

*   1 High
*   2 Medium
*   2 Low

The high vulnerability was an out-of-bounds read. It is unclear exactly how exploitable it was. However, more interesting were the two medium vulnerabilities, which were initially reported as DoS bugs in the libjpeg-turbo library but on further investigation were found to be issues with the JPEG standard itself. These issues were reproduced across multiple JPEG implementations, can be triggered by entirely legal JPEGs, and so are not easy to mitigate in any JPEG library itself. We have written up these issues in a separate report, along with our suggestions as to how applications using JPEG can mitigate them in their own code.

*   Audit report
*   Fix and validation log
*   Special report on issues in the JPEG standard

CVE-2016-9840: MOSS/Secure Open Source/Completed - MozillaWiki

The "OpenID Connect Relying Party and OAuth 2.0 Resource Server" (aka mod_auth_openidc) module before 2.1.6 for the Apache HTTP Server does not skip OIDC_CLAIM_ and OIDCAuthNHeader headers in an "AuthType oauth20" configuration, which allows remote attackers to bypass authentication via crafted HTTP traffic.

This is a security release :

_Those using AuthType oauth20 together with applications that interpret headers set by mod\_auth\_openidc on paths that disclose sensitive information are affected and should upgrade._

**Security**

*   scrub headers for AuthType oauth20

On accessing paths protected with AuthType oauth20 no headers would be scrubbed before mod\_auth\_openidc sets its own headers, so malicious software/users could set OIDC_CLAIM_ and OIDCAuthNHeader headers that applications would interpret as set by mod\_auth\_openidc **only if** those headers are not set and overwritten by mod\_auth\_openidc itself.

**Bugfixes**

*   handle OIDCUnAuthAction after max session duration is exceeded; see #220; thanks @phybros
*   fix parse OIDCOAuthTokenExpiryClaim; closes #225; thanks Alessandro Papacci
*   correctly parse kid in OIDCPublicKeyFiles and OIDCOAuthVerifyCertFiles; thanks Alessandro Papacci

**Other**

*   improve logging wrt. session management availability; closes #223
*   handle only X-Requested-With: XMLHttpRequest as non-browser request; closes #228; thanks @mguillem
*   improve error message on state timeout; closes #226; thanks @security4java
*   a call to the refresh hook now also resets the session inactivity timeout

**Packaging Notes**

*   _Accompanying libcjose packages can be found in the 2.1.3 release_
*   _Ubuntu Wily packages can also be used on Xenial and Yakkety_
*   _Centos 6 RPMs depend on libhiredis-0.12 now e.g. from https://pkgs.org/centos-6/puias-unsupported-x86\_64/_

CVE-2017-6413: Release release 2.1.6 · OpenIDC/mod_auth_openidc

The "OpenID Connect Relying Party and OAuth 2.0 Resource Server" (aka mod_auth_openidc) module before 2.1.5 for the Apache HTTP Server does not skip OIDC_CLAIM_ and OIDCAuthNHeader headers in an "OIDCUnAuthAction pass" configuration, which allows remote attackers to bypass authentication via crafted HTTP traffic.

This is a security release :

_Those using AuthType openid-connect together with OIDCUnAuthAction pass on paths that disclose sensitive information based on the authenticated user are affected and should upgrade._

**Security**

*   scrub headers on OIDCUnAuthAction pass; closes #222; thanks @wouterhund

On accessing paths protected with OIDCUnAuthAction pass no headers would be scrubbed when a user is not authenticated, so malicious software/users could set OIDC_CLAIM_ and OIDCAuthNHeader headers that applications would interpret as set by mod\_auth\_openidc even though the user has no authenticated session.

**Bugfixes**

*   fix error message about passing id\_token with session type client-cookie; see: #220; thanks @phybros

**Packaging Notes**

*   _Accompanying libcjose packages can be found in the 2.1.3 release_
*   _Ubuntu Wily packages can also be used on Xenial and Yakkety_
*   _Centos 6 RPMs depend on libhiredis-0.12 now e.g. from https://pkgs.org/centos-6/puias-unsupported-x86\_64/_

CVE-2017-6062: Release release 2.1.5 · OpenIDC/mod_auth_openidc

spl_array.c in the SPL extension in PHP before 5.5.37 and 5.6.x before 5.6.23 improperly interacts with the unserialize implementation and garbage collection, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (use-after-free and application crash) via crafted serialized data.

CVE-2016-5771: PHP: PHP 5 ChangeLog

The cdf_check_stream_offset function in cdf.c in file before 5.19, as used in the Fileinfo component in PHP before 5.4.30 and 5.5.x before 5.5.14, relies on incorrect sector-size data, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a crafted stream offset in a CDF file.
