If a Git reference is not passed along with the Git url, go-getter will then try to check the remote repository’s HEAD reference of its default branch by passing arguments to the Git binary on the host it is executing on. An attacker may format a Git URL in order to inject additional Git arguments to the Git call. Consumers of the go-getter library should evaluate the risk associated with these issues in the context of their go-getter usage and upgrade go-getter to 1.7.4 or later.

An attacker may alter the Git config after the cloning step to set an arbitrary Git configuration to achieve code execution.

golang.org/x/crypto 0.11.0 (golang) pkg:golang/golang.org/x/crypto@0.11.0 Improper Authorization Affected range <0.31.0 Fixed version 0.31.0 CVSS Score 9.1 CVSS Vector CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N EPSS Score 0.045% EPSS Percentile 18th percentile Description Applications and libraries which misuse the ServerConfig.PublicKeyCallback callback may be susceptible to an authorization bypass. The documentation for ServerConfig.PublicKeyCallback says that "A call to this function does not guarantee that the key offered is in fact used to authenticate." Specifically, the SSH protocol allows clients to inquire about whether a public key is acceptable before proving control of the corresponding private key. PublicKeyCallback may be called with multiple keys, and the order in which the keys were provided cannot be used to infer which key the client successfully authenticated with, if any. Some applications, which store the key(s) passed to PublicKeyCallback (or derived information) and make security relevant determinations based on it once the connection is established, may make incorrect assumptions. For example, an attacker may send public keys A and B, and then authenticate with A. PublicKeyCallback would be called only twice, first with A and then with B. A vulnerable application may then make authorization decisions based on key B for which the attacker does not actually control the private key. Since this API is widely misused, as a partial mitigation golang.org/x/crypto@v0.31.0 enforces the property that, when successfully authenticating via public key, the last key passed to ServerConfig.PublicKeyCallback will be the key used to authenticate the connection. PublicKeyCallback will now be called multiple times with the same key, if necessary. Note that the client may still not control the last key passed to PublicKeyCallback if the connection is then authenticated with a different method, such as PasswordCallback, KeyboardInteractiveCallback, or NoClientAuth. Users should be using the Extensions field of the Permissions return value from the various authentication callbacks to record data associated with the authentication attempt instead of referencing external state. Once the connection is established the state corresponding to the successful authentication attempt can be retrieved via the ServerConn.Permissions field. Note that some third-party libraries misuse the Permissions type by sharing it across authentication attempts; users of third-party libraries should refer to the relevant projects for guidance. Insufficient Verification of Data Authenticity Affected range <0.17.0 Fixed version 0.17.0 CVSS Score 5.9 CVSS Vector CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N EPSS Score 95.483% EPSS Percentile 100th percentile Description Summary Terrapin is a prefix truncation attack targeting the SSH protocol. More precisely, Terrapin breaks the integrity of SSH's secure channel. By carefully adjusting the sequence numbers during the handshake, an attacker can remove an arbitrary amount of messages sent by the client or server at the beginning of the secure channel without the client or server noticing it. Mitigations To mitigate this protocol vulnerability, OpenSSH suggested a so-called "strict kex" which alters the SSH handshake to ensure a Man-in-the-Middle attacker cannot introduce unauthenticated messages as well as convey sequence number manipulation across handshakes. Warning: To take effect, both the client and server must support this countermeasure. As a stop-gap measure, peers may also (temporarily) disable the affected algorithms and use unaffected alternatives like AES-GCM instead until patches are available. Details The SSH specifications of ChaCha20-Poly1305 (chacha20-poly1305@openssh.com) and Encrypt-then-MAC (*-etm@openssh.com MACs) are vulnerable against an arbitrary prefix truncation attack (a.k.a. Terrapin attack). This allows for an extension negotiation downgrade by stripping the SSH_MSG_EXT_INFO sent after the first message after SSH_MSG_NEWKEYS, downgrading security, and disabling attack countermeasures in some versions of OpenSSH. When targeting Encrypt-then-MAC, this attack requires the use of a CBC cipher to be practically exploitable due to the internal workings of the cipher mode. Additionally, this novel attack technique can be used to exploit previously unexploitable implementation flaws in a Man-in-the-Middle scenario. The attack works by an attacker injecting an arbitrary number of SSH_MSG_IGNORE messages during the initial key exchange and consequently removing the same number of messages just after the initial key exchange has concluded. This is possible due to missing authentication of the excess SSH_MSG_IGNORE messages and the fact that the implicit sequence numbers used within the SSH protocol are only checked after the initial key exchange. In the case of ChaCha20-Poly1305, the attack is guaranteed to work on every connection as this cipher does not maintain an internal state other than the message's sequence number. In the case of Encrypt-Then-MAC, practical exploitation requires the use of a CBC cipher; while theoretical integrity is broken for all ciphers when using this mode, message processing will fail at the application layer for CTR and stream ciphers. For more details see https://terrapin-attack.com. Impact This attack targets the specification of ChaCha20-Poly1305 (chacha20-poly1305@openssh.com) and Encrypt-then-MAC (*-etm@openssh.com), which are widely adopted by well-known SSH implementations and can be considered de-facto standard. These algorithms can be practically exploited; however, in the case of Encrypt-Then-MAC, we additionally require the use of a CBC cipher. As a consequence, this attack works against all well-behaving SSH implementations supporting either of those algorithms and can be used to downgrade (but not fully strip) connection security in case SSH extension negotiation (RFC8308) is supported. The attack may also enable attackers to exploit certain implementation flaws in a man-in-the-middle (MitM) scenario.

This could cause a denial of service. Uncontrolled Resource Consumption Affected range <0.17.0 Fixed version 0.17.0 CVSS Score 7.5 CVSS Vector CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H EPSS Score 0.590% EPSS Percentile 78th percentile Description A malicious HTTP/2 client which rapidly creates requests and immediately resets them can cause excessive server resource consumption. While the total number of requests is bounded by the http2.Server.MaxConcurrentStreams setting, resetting an in-progress request allows the attacker to create a new request while the existing one is still executing. With the fix applied, HTTP/2 servers now bound the number of simultaneously executing handler goroutines to the stream concurrency limit (MaxConcurrentStreams). New requests arriving when at the limit (which can only happen after the client has reset an existing, in-flight request) will be queued until a handler exits. If the request queue grows too large, the server will terminate the connection. This issue is also fixed in golang.org/x/net/http2 for users manually configuring HTTP/2. The default stream concurrency limit is 250 streams (requests) per HTTP/2 connection. This value may be adjusted using the golang.org/x/net/http2 package; see the Server.MaxConcurrentStreams setting and the ConfigureServer function. Uncontrolled Resource Consumption Affected range <0.17.0 Fixed version 0.17.0 CVSS Score 6.9 CVSS Vector CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N EPSS Score 80.090% EPSS Percentile 99th percentile Description HTTP/2 Rapid reset attack The HTTP/2 protocol allows clients to indicate to the server that a previous stream should be canceled by sending a RST_STREAM frame. The protocol does not require the client and server to coordinate the cancellation in any way, the client may do it unilaterally. The client may also assume that the cancellation will take effect immediately when the server receives the RST_STREAM frame, before any other data from that TCP connection is processed. Abuse of this feature is called a Rapid Reset attack because it relies on the ability for an endpoint to send a RST_STREAM frame immediately after sending a request frame, which makes the other endpoint start working and then rapidly resets the request. The request is canceled, but leaves the HTTP/2 connection open. The HTTP/2 Rapid Reset attack built on this capability is simple: The client opens a large number of streams at once as in the standard HTTP/2 attack, but rather than waiting for a response to each request stream from the server or proxy, the client cancels each request immediately. The ability to reset streams immediately allows each connection to have an indefinite number of requests in flight. By explicitly canceling the requests, the attacker never exceeds the limit on the number of concurrent open streams. The number of in-flight requests is no longer dependent on the round-trip time (RTT), but only on the available network bandwidth. In a typical HTTP/2 server implementation, the server will still have to do significant amounts of work for canceled requests, such as allocating new stream data structures, parsing the query and doing header decompression, and mapping the URL to a resource. For reverse proxy implementations, the request may be proxied to the backend server before the RST_STREAM frame is processed. The client on the other hand paid almost no costs for sending the requests. This creates an exploitable cost asymmetry between the server and the client. Multiple software artifacts implementing HTTP/2 are affected. This advisory was originally ingested from the swift-nio-http2 repo advisory and their original conent follows. swift-nio-http2 specific advisory swift-nio-http2 is vulnerable to a denial-of-service vulnerability in which a malicious client can create and then reset a large number of HTTP/2 streams in a short period of time. This causes swift-nio-http2 to commit to a large amount of expensive work which it then throws away, including creating entirely new Channels to serve the traffic. This can easily overwhelm an EventLoop and prevent it from making forward progress. swift-nio-http2 1.28 contains a remediation for this issue that applies reset counter using a sliding window. This constrains the number of stream resets that may occur in a given window of time. Clients violating this limit will have their connections torn down. This allows clients to continue to cancel streams for legitimate reasons, while constraining malicious actors.

Maintaining HPACK state requires parsing and processing all HEADERS and CONTINUATION frames on a connection. When a request's headers exceed MaxHeaderBytes, no memory is allocated to store the excess headers, but they are still parsed. This permits an attacker to cause an HTTP/2 endpoint to read arbitrary amounts of header data, all associated with a request which is going to be rejected. These headers can include Huffman-encoded data which is significantly more expensive for the receiver to decode than for an attacker to send. The fix sets a limit on the amount of excess header frames we will process before closing a connection.

Improper Input Validation Affected range <=0.47.8 Fixed version 0.47.9 CVSS Score 6.5 CVSS Vector CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H Description ASA-2024-003: Missing BlockedAddressed Validation in Vesting Module Component: Cosmos SDK Criticality: Low Affected Versions: Cosmos SDK versions <= 0.50.3; <= 0.47.8 Affected Users: Chain developers, Validator and Node operators Impact: Denial of Service Description A vulnerability was identified in the x/auth/vesting module, which can allow a user to create a periodic vesting account on a blocked address, for example a non-initialized module account. Additional validation was added to prevent creation of a periodic vesting account in this scenario. If this case is triggered, there is the potential for a chain halt if the uninitialized account in question is called by GetModuleAccount in Begin/EndBlock of a module. This combination of an uninitialized blocked module account is not common. Next Steps for Impacted Parties If your chain has uninitialized blocked module accounts, it is recommended to proactively initialize them, as they are often initialized during a chain migration or during init genesis. If you are a chain developer on an affected version of the Cosmos SDK, it is advised to update to the latest available version of the Cosmos SDK for your project. Once a patched version is available, it is recommended that network operators upgrade. A Github Security Advisory for this issue is available in the Cosmos-SDK repository. For more information about Cosmos SDK, see https://docs.cosmos.network/. This issue was found by Dongsam who reported it to the Cosmos Bug Bounty Program on HackerOne on January 30, 2024. If you believe you have found a bug in the Interchain Stack or would like to contribute to the program by reporting a bug, please see https://hackerone.com/cosmos. Addendum A variant trigger of this issue via the x/authz and x/feegrant modules was discovered by Richie who reported it to the Cosmos Bug Bounty Program on HackerOne on April 6th, 2024, and was subsequently fixed by the Cosmos SDK team on April 21st, 2024. The guidance for mitigating this additional variant is the same as the parent advisory, so it is suggested that all chains proactively initialize module accounts if they have not already done so.

Affected range <0.46 Fixed version 0.46 Description Component: Cosmovisor Criticality: Medium Affected Versions: Cosmovisor < v1.0.0 (distributed with Cosmos-SDK < 0.46) Affected Users: Validators and Node operators utilizing unsupported versions of Cosmovisor Impact: DOS, potential RCE on node depending on configuration An issue has been identified on unsupported versions of Cosmovisor which may result in a Denial of Service or Remote Code Execution path depending on configuration for a node or validator using the vulnerable version to manage their node. If a validator is utilizing an affected version of Cosmovisor with DAEMON_ALLOW_DOWNLOAD_BINARIES set to true, a non-default configuration, it may be possible for an attacker to trigger a Remote Code Execution path as well on the host. In this configuration it is recommended to immediately stop use of the DAEMON_ALLOW_DOWNLOAD_BINARIES feature, and then proceed with an upgrade of Cosmovisor. It is recommended that all validators utilizing unsupported versions of Cosmovisor to upgrade to the latest supported versions immediately. If you are utilizing a forked version of Cosmos-SDK, it is recommended to stop use of Cosmovisor until it is possible to update to a supported version of Cosmovisor, whether through your project’s fork, or directly compiled from the Cosmos-SDK. At the time of this advisory, the latest version of Cosmovisor is v1.5.0. Additionally, the Amulet team recommends that developers building chains powered by Cosmos-SDK share this advisory with validators and node operators to ensure this information is available to all impacted parties within their ecosystems. For more information about Cosmovisor, see https://docs.cosmos.network/main/tooling/cosmovisor This issue was discovered by Maxwell Dulin and Nathan Kirkland, who reported it to the Cosmos Bug Bounty Program. If you believe you have found a bug in the Interchain Stack or would like to contribute to the program by reporting a bug, please see https://hackerone.com/cosmos. How to tell if I am affected? Running the following command will output whether your cosmovisor version is vulnerable to this issue or not. Vulnerable to this issue: strings ./cosmovisor | grep -q "NEEDED at" && echo "vulnerable" || echo "NOT vulnerable" vulnerable NOT vulnerable to this issue: strings ./cosmovisor_new | grep -q "NEEDED at" && echo "vulnerable" || echo "NOT vulnerable" NOT vulnerable A Note from Amulet on the Security Advisory Process In the interest of timely resolution of this issue for validators and node operators, the Amulet team has chosen to use existing processes and resources for distributing security advisories within the Cosmos and Interchain Ecosystems. Stay tuned as we implement an improved, more robust security advisory distribution system that will provide equitable access to information about security issues in the Interchain Stack.

If a delegation contributed to byzantine behavior of a validator, and the validator has not yet been slashed, it may be possible for that delegation to evade a pending slashing penalty through re-delegation behavior. Additional validation logic was added to restrict this behavior. Next Steps for Impacted Parties If you are a chain developer on an affected version of the Cosmos SDK, it is advised to update to the latest available version of the Cosmos SDK for your project.

github.com/cometbft/cometbft 0.38.0-rc3 (golang) pkg:golang/github.com/cometbft/cometbft@0.38.0-rc3 Insufficient Verification of Data Authenticity Affected range <0.38.17 Fixed version 0.38.17 Description Name: ASA-2025-002: Malicious peer can stall network by disseminating seemingly valid block parts Component: CometBFT Criticality: High (Catastrophic Impact; Possible Likelihood per ACMv1.2) Affected versions: <= v0.38.16, v1.0.0 Affected users: Validators, Full nodes, Users Description A bug was identified in the CometBFT validation of block part indices and the corresponding proof part indices that can lead to incorrect processing and dissemination of invalid parts, which in turn could lead to a network halt. Additional validation was added to prevent this condition from happening. Patches The new CometBFT releases v1.0.1 and v0.38.17 fix this issue. Unreleased code in the main branch is patched as well. Workarounds There are no known workarounds for this issue. If a node is producing these malicious proofs, the only mitigation is to upgrade CometBFT. After upgrading, the validators then will eventually conclude the correct value. Technical Deep-Dive When the next proposer creates a block, it is split into many block parts (64kB each). Each block part is then disseminated via p2p layer in a gossip fashion. The block part contains the following fields: type Part struct { Index uint32 `json:"index"` Bytes cmtbytes.HexBytes `json:"bytes"` Proof merkle.Proof `json:"proof"` } Index - represents the index of a block part Bytes - the actual content Proof - Merkle proof, which allows the receiving node to quickly verify that a Part is indeed a piece of the proposed block. The Proof contains the following fields: type Proof struct { Total int64 `json:"total"` // Total number of items. Index int64 `json:"index"` // Index of item to prove. LeafHash []byte `json:"leaf_hash"` // Hash of item value. Aunts [][]byte `json:"aunts,omitempty"` // Hashes from leaf's sibling to a root's child. } Note that the total number of leaves in the Merkle tree equals the number of parts in the proposed block. Previously, CometBFT did not validate the Index field and specifically that Part.Index must be equal to Part.Proof.Index. This leads to a condition where, it is possible to use the proof from a different part and CometBFT accept it, even though the proof proves the different part is a piece of the proposed block and not the part that the peer actually sent to us. This condition is problematic because: it would disseminate the invalid block part to its neighboring nodes (because it deemed it as correct) it would mark the block part as received and ask the neighboring nodes not to relay it in the future, making it impossible to receive the correct block part. To address this, CometBFT was patched to verify that Part.Index is equal to Part.Proof.Index, preventing the above condition.

In the blocksync protocol peers send their base and latest heights when they connect to a new node (A), which is syncing to the tip of a network. base acts as a lower ground and informs A that the peer only has blocks starting from height base. latest height informs A about the latest block in a network. Normally, nodes would only report increasing heights: B: {base: 100, latest: 1000} B: {base: 100, latest: 1001} B: {base: 100, latest: 1002} ... If B fails to provide the latest block, B is removed and the latest height (target height) is recalculated based on other nodes latest heights. The existing code hovewer doesn't check for the case where B first reports latest height X and immediately after height Y, where X > Y. For example: B: {base: 100, latest: 2000} B: {base: 100, latest: 1001} B: {base: 100, latest: 1002} ... A will be trying to catch up to 2000 indefinitely. Even if B disconnects, the latest height (target height) won't be recalculated because A "doesn't know where 2000" came from per see. Impact Qualification This condition requires the introduction of malicious code in the full node first reporting a non-existing latest height, then reporting lower latest height and nodes which are syncing using blocksync protocol. Patches The new CometBFT releases v1.0.1 and v0.38.17 fix this issue. Unreleased code in the main is patched as well. Workarounds When the operator notices blocksync is stuck, they can identify the peer from which that message with "invalid" height was received. This may require increasing the logging level of the blocksync module. This peer can then be subsequently banned at the p2p layer as a temporary mitigation.

google.golang.org/grpc 1.56.2 (golang) pkg:golang/google.golang.org/grpc@1.56.2 Affected range <1.56.3 Fixed version 1.56.3 CVSS Score 7.5 CVSS Vector CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H Description Impact In affected releases of gRPC-Go, it is possible for an attacker to send HTTP/2 requests, cancel them, and send subsequent requests, which is valid by the HTTP/2 protocol, but would cause the gRPC-Go server to launch more concurrent method handlers than the configured maximum stream limit. Patches This vulnerability was addressed by #6703 and has been included in patch releases: 1.56.3, 1.57.1, 1.58.3. It is also included in the latest release, 1.59.0. Along with applying the patch, users should also ensure they are using the grpc.MaxConcurrentStreams server option to apply a limit to the server's resources used for any single connection. Workarounds None. References #6703 Uncontrolled Resource Consumption Affected range <1.56.3 Fixed version 1.56.3 CVSS Score 6.9 CVSS Vector CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N EPSS Score 80.090% EPSS Percentile 99th percentile Description HTTP/2 Rapid reset attack The HTTP/2 protocol allows clients to indicate to the server that a previous stream should be canceled by sending a RST_STREAM frame. The protocol does not require the client and server to coordinate the cancellation in any way, the client may do it unilaterally. The client may also assume that the cancellation will take effect immediately when the server receives the RST_STREAM frame, before any other data from that TCP connection is processed. Abuse of this feature is called a Rapid Reset attack because it relies on the ability for an endpoint to send a RST_STREAM frame immediately after sending a request frame, which makes the other endpoint start working and then rapidly resets the request. The request is canceled, but leaves the HTTP/2 connection open. The HTTP/2 Rapid Reset attack built on this capability is simple: The client opens a large number of streams at once as in the standard HTTP/2 attack, but rather than waiting for a response to each request stream from the server or proxy, the client cancels each request immediately. The ability to reset streams immediately allows each connection to have an indefinite number of requests in flight. By explicitly canceling the requests, the attacker never exceeds the limit on the number of concurrent open streams. The number of in-flight requests is no longer dependent on the round-trip time (RTT), but only on the available network bandwidth. In a typical HTTP/2 server implementation, the server will still have to do significant amounts of work for canceled requests, such as allocating new stream data structures, parsing the query and doing header decompression, and mapping the URL to a resource. For reverse proxy implementations, the request may be proxied to the backend server before the RST_STREAM frame is processed. The client on the other hand paid almost no costs for sending the requests. This creates an exploitable cost asymmetry between the server and the client. Multiple software artifacts implementing HTTP/2 are affected. This advisory was originally ingested from the swift-nio-http2 repo advisory and their original conent follows. swift-nio-http2 specific advisory swift-nio-http2 is vulnerable to a denial-of-service vulnerability in which a malicious client can create and then reset a large number of HTTP/2 streams in a short period of time. This causes swift-nio-http2 to commit to a large amount of expensive work which it then throws away, including creating entirely new Channels to serve the traffic. This can easily overwhelm an EventLoop and prevent it from making forward progress. swift-nio-http2 1.28 contains a remediation for this issue that applies reset counter using a sliding window. This constrains the number of stream resets that may occur in a given window of time. Clients violating this limit will have their connections torn down. This allows clients to continue to cancel streams for legitimate reasons, while constraining malicious actors.

This was addressed by adding a recursion limit while decoding the packet. ASA-2024-0013 Nested messages in a transaction can consume exponential cpu and memory on UnpackAny calls. Themax_tx_bytes sets a limit for external TX but is not applied for internal messages emitted by wasm contracts or a malicious validator block. This may result in a node crashing due to resource exhaustion. This was addressed by adding additional validation to prevent this condition. Patches The issues above are resolved in Cosmos SDK versions v0.47.15 or v0.50.11. Please upgrade ASAP.

cosmossdk.io/math 1.0.1 (golang) pkg:golang/cosmossdk.io/math@1.0.1 Integer Overflow or Wraparound Affected range <=1.3.0 Fixed version 1.4.0 CVSS Score 8.7 CVSS Vector CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N Description Name: ASA-2024-010: Mismatched bit-length in sdk.Int and sdk.Dec can lead to panic Component: Cosmos SDK / Math Criticality: High (Considerable Impact, and Possible Likelihood per ACMv1.2) Affected versions: cosmossdk.io/math package versions <= math/v1.3.0 Affected users: Chain Builders + Maintainers, Validators Impact The bit-length in sdk.Int and sdk.Dec are not aligned, which may present a possible panic condition when interacting with Dec types in an Int context. This issue was resolved by aligning the max size between the data types in the cosmossdk.io/math package. This issue impacts consumers of the cosmossdk.io/math, which includes popular modules including IBC-Go and tokenfactory (permissionless). If your chain interacts with APIs in the cosmossdk.io/math package, or utilizes a module that consumes this library, it is advised to update to the latest version at the time of the patch release by updating your project's go.mod dependency for cosmossdk.io/math. The patch can be applied without a hard-fork, and with a version bump in a chain's go.mod file like the following: go.mod - cosmossdk.io/math v1.3.0 + cosmossdk.io/math v1.4.0 [!NOTE] When on a lower version than cosmossdk.io/math v1.3.0, please do a coordinated upgrade before upgrading to >= 1.3.0 Patches The new release of cosmossdk.io/math v1.4.0 resolves this issue. Chains that utilize the cosmossdk.io/math library or modules that utilize the cosmossdk.io/math library should update to avoid this condition.
