Problem

Multiple vulnerabilities have been resolved in Juniper Networks Junos OS by updating third party software included with Junos OS devices.

In Junos OS, the majority of attack vectors in this announcement require multiple chaining attack events to be successful against services which do not directly call SQLite. For the attacker to be able to access and successfully execute commands on the device, only one attack vector is known to exist.

These issues potentially allow an attacker to execute code or commands thereby allowing full access to the device.

CVE CVSS Summary
CVE-2019-16168 4.3 AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P In SQLite through 3.29.0, whereLoopAddBtreeIndex in sqlite3.c can crash a browser or other application because of missing validation of a sqlite_stat1 sz field, aka a "severe division by zero in the query planner."
CVE-2019-9937 7.5 ( CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H ) In SQLite 3.27.2, interleaving reads and writes in a single transaction with an fts5 virtual table will lead to a NULL Pointer Dereference in fts5ChunkIterate in sqlite3.c. This is related to ext/fts5/fts5_hash.c and ext/fts5/fts5_index.c.
CVE-2019-9936 7.5 ( CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N ) In SQLite 3.27.2, running fts5 prefix queries inside a transaction could trigger a heap-based buffer over-read in fts5HashEntrySort in sqlite3.c, which may lead to an information leak. This is related to ext/fts5/fts5_hash.c.
CVE-2019-8457 7.5 AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P SQLite3 from 3.6.0 to and including 3.27.2 is vulnerable to heap out-of-bound read in the rtreenode() function when handling invalid rtree tables.
CVE-2019-5018 8.1 ( CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H ) An exploitable use after free vulnerability exists in the window function functionality of Sqlite3 3.26.0. A specially crafted SQL command can cause a use after free vulnerability, potentially resulting in remote code execution. An attacker can send a malicious SQL command to trigger this vulnerability.
CVE-2018-20506 8.1 ( CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H ) SQLite before 3.25.3, when the FTS3 extension is enabled, encounters an integer overflow (and resultant buffer overflow) for FTS3 queries in a "merge" operation that occurs after crafted changes to FTS3 shadow tables, allowing remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by leveraging the ability to run arbitrary SQL statements (such as in certain WebSQL use cases). This is a different vulnerability than CVE-2018-20346.
CVE-2018-20505 7.5 ( CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H ) SQLite 3.25.2, when queries are run on a table with a malformed PRIMARY KEY, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) by leveraging the ability to run arbitrary SQL statements (such as in certain WebSQL use cases).
CVE-2018-20346 8.1 ( CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H ) SQLite before 3.25.3, when the FTS3 extension is enabled, encounters an integer overflow (and resultant buffer overflow) for FTS3 queries that occur after crafted changes to FTS3 shadow tables, allowing remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by leveraging the ability to run arbitrary SQL statements (such as in certain WebSQL use cases), aka Magellan.
CVE-2018-8740 7.5 ( CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H ) In SQLite through 3.22.0, databases whose schema is corrupted using a CREATE TABLE AS statement could cause a NULL pointer dereference, related to build.c and prepare.c.
CVE-2017-15286 7.5 ( CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H ) SQLite 3.20.1 has a NULL pointer dereference in tableColumnList in shell.c because it fails to consider certain cases where `sqlite3_step(pStmt)==SQLITE_ROW` is false and a data structure is never initialized.
CVE-2017-13685 5.5 ( CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H ) The dump_callback function in SQLite 3.20.0 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (EXC_BAD_ACCESS and application crash) via a crafted file.
CVE-2017-10989 9.8 ( CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H ) The getNodeSize function in ext/rtree/rtree.c in SQLite through 3.19.3, as used in GDAL and other products, mishandles undersized RTree blobs in a crafted database, leading to a heap-based buffer over-read or possibly unspecified other impact.
CVE-2016-6153 5.9 ( CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:L ) os_unix.c in SQLite before 3.13.0 improperly implements the temporary directory search algorithm, which might allow local users to obtain sensitive information, cause a denial of service (application crash), or have unspecified other impact by leveraging use of the current working directory for temporary files.
CVE-2015-6607 6.8 (AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P) SQLite before 3.8.9, as used in Android before 5.1.1 LMY48T, allows attackers to gain privileges via a crafted application, aka internal bug 20099586.

Workaround

To reduce the risk of exploitation:

* Discontinue the use of SLAX scripts and the REST API.

* Monitor /var/chroot/rest-api/var/log for malicious activity.

* Allow access to the device from only trusted networks, administrators and hosts and utilize jumpboxes.
