CVE-2022-3602 AND CVE-2022-3786
Nov 4, 2022
On Nov. 1, 2022, OpenSSL released OpenSSL 3.0.7, which patches the high-severity vulnerability CVE-2022-3786. Exploitation of the vulnerability results in a crash (denial of service) and can also lead to remote code execution. For a few days prior to Nov. 1, a number of security news outlets and security researchers warned about the potential high impact of the vulnerability to OpenSSLv3, whose details had not yet been publicly released. Upon learning about the potentially high impact of the vulnerability, Contrast Labs took immediate steps to investigate our susceptibility. After a thorough internal investigation, it was determined that Contrast is not susceptible to CVE-2022-3786 and CVE-2022-3602 at this time. The Contrast team continues to actively monitor the situation regarding the OpenSSL vulnerability.For additional inquiries, please contact support@contrastsecurity.com.
DHS Warning - Imminent National Cyberthreats
Contrast Labs has been monitoring the new CVE, Apache Commons Text interpolation CVE-2022-42889. While there was some initial concern from the industry that it is at the caliber of log4shell, the reality is that it is not nearly as widespread or exploitable. The class/method involved in this vulnerability is rarely used and a quick GitHub search shows very few open source programs using the vulnerable method. From what we’ve seen so far, this CVE seems more like a developer adding a backdoor, more than anything. I’m not as concerned that this will amount to much, as it's not like log4j where an application is gathering user controlled input and logging it, which could result in exploiting the log4shell vulnerability. - David Lindner, CISO at Contrast.
