CVE-2019-11098

EDK II is a modern, feature-rich, cross-platform firmware development environment for the UEFI and PI specifications.

Security Fix(es):

Null pointer dereference in Tianocore EDK2 may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable escalation of privilege via local access.(CVE-2019-14584)

Insufficient input validation in MdeModulePkg in EDKII may allow an unauthenticated user to potentially enable escalation of privilege, denial of service and/or information disclosure via physical access.(CVE-2019-11098)

This update for ovmf fixes the following issues:

• CVE-2019-11098: Fixed insufficient input validation in MdeModulePkg (bsc#1188371).

This update for ovmf fixes the following issues:

• CVE-2019-11098: Fixed insufficient input validation in MdeModulePkg (bsc#1188371).

It was discovered that EDK II incorrectly handled input validation in MdeModulePkg. A local user could possibly use this issue to cause EDK II to crash, resulting in a denial of service, obtain sensitive information or execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2019-11098)

Paul Kehrer discovered that OpenSSL used in EDK II incorrectly handled certain input lengths in EVP functions. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause EDK II to crash, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2021-23840)

Ingo Schwarze discovered that OpenSSL used in EDK II incorrectly handled certain ASN.1 strings. An attacker could use this issue to cause EDK II to crash, resulting in a denial of service, or possibly obtain sensitive information. (CVE-2021-3712)

It was discovered that EDK II incorrectly decoded certain strings. A remote attacker could use this issue to cause EDK II to crash, resulting in a denial of service, or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2021-38575)
