Article contents:
This update resolves the following vulnerabilities.
CVE-2023-3313:
An OS common injection vulnerability exists in the ESM certificate API, whereby incorrectly neutralized special elements may have allowed an unauthorized user to execute system command injection for the purpose of privilege escalation or to execute arbitrary commands.
CVE-2023-3314:
A vulnerability arises out of a failure to comprehensively sanitize the processing of a zip file(s). Incomplete neutralization of external commands used to control the process execution of the .zip application allows an authorized user to obtain control of the .zip application to execute arbitrary commands or obtain elevation of system privileges.
Remediation

Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) is the result of the National Infrastructure Advisory Council's effort to standardize a system of assessing the criticality of a vulnerability. This system offers an unbiased criticality score between 0 and 10 that customers can use to determine how critical a vulnerability is and plan accordingly. For more information, visit the CVSS website.
When calculating CVSS scores, we adopt a philosophy that fosters consistency and repeatability. Our guiding principle for CVSS scoring is to score the exploit under consideration by itself. We consider only the immediate and direct impact of the exploit under consideration. We don't factor into a score any potential follow-on exploits that might be made possible by the successful exploitation of the issue being scored.
What are the CVSS scoring metrics?
All Security Bulletins are published on our Knowledge Center. Security Bulletins are retired (removed) once a product is both End of Sale and End of Support (End of Life).
How do I report a product vulnerability to you?
If you have information about a security issue or vulnerability with a product, follow the instructions provided in KB95563 - Report a vulnerability.
How do you respond to this and any other reported security flaws?
Our key priority is the security of our customers. If a vulnerability is found within any of our software or services, we work closely with the relevant security software development team to ensure the rapid and effective development of a fix and communication plan.
We only publish Security Bulletins if they include something actionable such as a workaround, mitigation, version update, or hotfix. Otherwise, we would simply be informing the hacker community that our products are a target, putting our customers at greater risk. For products that are updated automatically, a non-actionable Security Bulletin might be published to acknowledge the discoverer.
