A flaw was found in libxml2. Parsing a XML document with the XMLPARSEHUGE option enabled can result in an integer overflow because safety checks were missing in some functions. Also, the xmlParseEntityValue function didn't have any length limitation.

Summary

Out-of-bounds Write vulnerability in the bundled Brotli decoder in yjh0502 erl-brotli allows an attacker who supplies a crafted Brotli-compressed stream to brotli:decode/1 to corrupt decoder state memory, disclose memory contents, crash the Erlang VM, or potentially execute code.

erl-brotli compiles its own copy of the Google Brotli C sources under csrc into a NIF, and brotlidecoderdecompressstream in csrc/brotlinif.c hands the input to BrotliDecoderDecompressStream. In csrc/dec/decode.c, DecodeBlockTypeAndLength returns false for a block switch in a category with at most one block type, and the non-streaming callers DecodeLiteralBlockSwitch, DecodeCommandBlockSwitch and DecodeDistanceBlockSwitch discard that result, so decoding continues with inconsistent state. The decoder runs inside a NIF, so memory corruption or a crash takes down the whole VM rather than the calling process. Because the package carries its own copy of the library, the Brotli version installed on the host does not matter.

This issue affects brotli: from 0.3.0 before 0.3.4.

Impact

An attacker who can get an application to decode a Brotli stream they control, for example an HTTP client that decompresses Content-Encoding: br responses with this package, can crash the Erlang VM and potentially run code inside it.

In libexpat before 2.2.8, crafted XML input could fool the parser into changing from DTD parsing to document parsing too early; a consecutive call to XMLGetCurrentLineNumber (or XMLGetCurrentColumnNumber) then resulted in a heap-based buffer over-read.

Apple Neural Engine. The issue was addressed with improved memory handling.

A vulnerability was discovered in Linux, FreeBSD, OpenBSD, MacOS, iOS, and Android that allows a malicious access point, or an adjacent user, to determine if a connected user is using a VPN, make positive inferences about the websites they are visiting, and determine the correct sequence and acknowledgement numbers in use, allowing the bad actor to inject data into the TCP stream. This provides everything that is needed for an attacker to hijack active connections inside the VPN tunnel.
