Hi Team,

We have found few more Vulnerabilities on Kafka, below are the list:

CVE-2022-36944<https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2022-36944>
Scala 2.13.x before 2.13.9 has a Java deserialization chain in its JAR file. On 
its own, it cannot be exploited. There is only a risk in conjunction with Java 
object deserialization within an application. In such situations, it allows 
attackers to erase contents of arbitrary files, make network connections, or 
possibly run arbitrary code (specifically, Function0 functions) via a gadget 
chain

CVE-2023-26048<https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2023-26048>
Jetty is a java based web server and servlet engine. In affected versions 
servlets with multipart support (e.g. annotated with `@MultipartConfig`) that 
call `HttpServletRequest.getParameter()` or `HttpServletRequest.getParts()` may 
cause `OutOfMemoryError` when the client sends a multipart request with a part 
that has a name but no filename and very large content. This happens even with 
the default settings of `fileSizeThreshold=0` which should stream the whole 
part content to disk. An attacker client may send a large multipart request and 
cause the server to throw `OutOfMemoryError`. However, the server may be able 
to recover after the `OutOfMemoryError` and continue its service -- although it 
may take some time. This issue has been patched in versions 9.4.51, 10.0.14, 
and 11.0.14. Users are advised to upgrade. Users unable to upgrade may set the 
multipart parameter `maxRequestSize` which must be set to a non-negative value, 
so the whole multipart content is limited (although still read into memory).

CVE-2023-26049<https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2023-26049>
Jetty is a java based web server and servlet engine. Nonstandard cookie parsing 
in Jetty may allow an attacker to smuggle cookies within other cookies, or 
otherwise perform unintended behavior by tampering with the cookie parsing 
mechanism. If Jetty sees a cookie VALUE that starts with `"` (double quote), it 
will continue to read the cookie string until it sees a closing quote -- even 
if a semicolon is encountered. So, a cookie header such as: 
`DISPLAY_LANGUAGE="b; JSESSIONID=1337; c=d"` will be parsed as one cookie, with 
the name DISPLAY_LANGUAGE and a value of b; JSESSIONID=1337; c=d instead of 3 
separate cookies. This has security implications because if, say, JSESSIONID is 
an HttpOnly cookie, and the DISPLAY_LANGUAGE cookie value is rendered on the 
page, an attacker can smuggle the JSESSIONID cookie into the DISPLAY_LANGUAGE 
cookie and thereby exfiltrate it. This is significant when an intermediary is 
enacting some policy based on cookies, so a smuggled cookie can bypass that 
policy yet still be seen by the Jetty server or its logging system. This issue 
has been addressed in versions 9.4.51, 10.0.14, 11.0.14, and 12.0.0.beta0 and 
users are advised to upgrade. There are no known workarounds for this issue.

Kindly confirm about the mitigation plan and impact of these CVEs.

Regards,
Sahil

Hi team,

We have got below two vulnerabilities on Kafka 3PP.

CVE-2022-42003<https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2022-42003>
In FasterXML jackson-databind before 2.14.0-rc1, resource exhaustion can occur 
because of a lack of a check in primitive value deserializers to avoid deep 
wrapper array nesting, when the UNWRAP_SINGLE_VALUE_ARRAYS feature is enabled. 
Additional fix version in 2.13.4.1 and 2.12.17.1

CVE-2022-42004<https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2022-42004>
In FasterXML jackson-databind before 2.13.4, resource exhaustion can occur 
because of a lack of a check in BeanDeserializer._deserializeFromArray to 
prevent use of deeply nested arrays. An application is vulnerable only with 
certain customized choices for deserialization.

Is 3PP is using the impacted functionality and in which version of Kafka these 
will be fixed?

Regards,
Sahil
