Re: [ANNOUNCE] Apache PDFBox 2.0.8 released

Posted by Tilman Hausherr <TH...@t-online.de>.
I'd reluctantly agree on the first one (PDFBOX-3919, although this is a 
6 year old risk). But not on any issues with NPE or CCE. I think I've 
fixed 10-20 of such in each version. Many of them as part of code 
cleanup, only a few from user reports. Doing a CVE for each of them 
would mean days of work. And such an exception wouldn't hurt the system. 
Tomcat doesn't crash when a servlet breaks. Other tools could simply 
catch the throwable. OTOH an endless loop is more evil, the system would 
slowly die or block.

I need to read this and collect the information needed.

Hi,

A vulnerability is anything that an attacker could do that affects the confidentiality, integrity or availability of the application, commonly known as CIA (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Information_security#Key_concepts).

An infinite loop is a denial of service (affecting availability) as the thread is looping instead of returning and being responsive.  Here's one example: https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2016-4008   Just google "cve infinite loop" and you'll see many others.  Similarly, crashes caused by attacker provided input are a denial of service as well (keep in mind that an attacker can be a legitimate user).

A CNA is a CVE numbering authority, they are authorized to manage the publication of CVEs into a centralized database of vulnerabilities (CVEs are a way of uniquely identifying vulnerabilities).  See https://cve.mitre.org/cve/request_id.html#cna_coverage and https://www.apache.org/security/


Regards,

David

What's your definition of "vulnerability"? The first is an endless loop, 
the other two are NPEs. And what is a "CNA"?

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Apache PDFBox 2.0.8 released

Hi,

At least three of these issues appear to be vulnerabilities (probably more), any chance of getting CVEs assigned to them?  Apache is a CNA now so I'd think it wouldn't be too much trouble.

The issues I see as being vulnerabilities are PDFBOX-3919, PDFBOX-3949 and PDFBOX-3976.


Thanks,

David
