A flaw was found in OpenSSL. The crehash script does not properly sanitize shell meta-characters to prevent command injection. Some operating systems distribute this script in a manner where it is automatically executed. This flaw allows an attacker to execute arbitrary commands with the privileges of the script on these operating systems.

QuerySet.annotate(), aggregate(), and extra() methods were subject to SQL injection in column aliases, using a suitably crafted dictionary, with dictionary expansion, as the kwargs passed to these methods.

This issue has High severity, according to the Django security policy [1].

An out-of-bounds read/write vulnerability was found in the modsed module of httpd. This flaw allows an attacker to overwrite the memory of an httpd instance that is using modsed with data provided by the attacker.

A flaw was found in httpd. The inbound connection is not closed when it fails to discard the request body, which may expose the server to HTTP request smuggling.

A flaw was found in httpd, where it incorrectly limits the value of the LimitXMLRequestBody option. This issue can lead to an integer overflow and later causes an out-of-bounds write.

Redis is prone to a (Debian-specific) Lua sandbox escape, which could result in remote code execution.

It was discovered, that debian-edu-config, a set of configuration files used for the Debian Edu blend, before 2.12.16 configured insecure permissions for the user web shares (~/publichtml), which could result in privilege escalation.

A flaw was found in the elliptic package of the crypto library in golang when the IsOnCurve function could return true for invalid field elements. This flaw allows an attacker to take advantage of this undefined behavior, affecting the availability and integrity of the resource.

pgjdbc is the offical PostgreSQL JDBC Driver. A security hole was found in the jdbc driver for postgresql database while doing security research. The system using the postgresql library will be attacked when attacker control the jdbc url or properties. pgjdbc instantiates plugin instances based on class names provided via authenticationPluginClassName, sslhostnameverifier, socketFactory, sslfactory, sslpasswordcallback connection properties. However, the driver did not verify if the class implements the expected interface before instantiating the class. This can lead to code execution loaded via arbitrary classes. Users using plugins are advised to upgrade. There are no known workarounds for this issue.

Expat (aka libexpat) before 2.4.4 has a signed integer overflow in XMLGetBuffer, for configurations with a nonzero XMLCONTEXTBYTES.

A flaw was found in the H2 Console. This flaw allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a JDBC URL, concatenating with a substring that allows remote code execution by using a script.

A flaw was found in h2. The org.h2.util.JdbcUtils.getConnection method of the H2 database takes as parameters the class name of the driver and URL of the database. This flaw allows an attacker to use this URL to send another server’s code, causing remote code execution. This issue is exploited through various attack vectors, most notably through the H2 Console, which leads to unauthenticated remote code execution.

Apache Log4j <=2.14.1 JNDI features used in configuration, log messages, and parameters do not protect against attacker controlled LDAP and other JNDI related endpoints. An attacker who can control log messages or log message parameters can execute arbitrary code loaded from LDAP servers when message lookup substitution is enabled (CVE-2021-44228).

Summary

Log4j versions prior to 2.16.0 are subject to a remote code execution vulnerability via the ldap JNDI parser. As per Apache's Log4j security guide: Apache Log4j2 <=2.14.1 JNDI features used in configuration, log messages, and parameters do not protect against attacker controlled LDAP and other JNDI related endpoints. An attacker who can control log messages or log message parameters can execute arbitrary code loaded from LDAP servers when message lookup substitution is enabled. From log4j 2.16.0, this behavior has been disabled by default.

Log4j version 2.15.0 contained an earlier fix for the vulnerability, but that patch did not disable attacker-controlled JNDI lookups in all situations. For more information, see the Updated advice for version 2.16.0 section of this advisory.

Impact

Logging untrusted or user controlled data with a vulnerable version of Log4J may result in Remote Code Execution (RCE) against your application. This includes untrusted data included in logged errors such as exception traces, authentication failures, and other unexpected vectors of user controlled input.

Affected versions

Any Log4J version prior to v2.15.0 is affected to this specific issue.

The v1 branch of Log4J which is considered End Of Life (EOL) is vulnerable to other RCE vectors so the recommendation is to still update to 2.16.0 where possible.

Security releases Additional backports of this fix have been made available in versions 2.3.1, 2.12.2, and 2.12.3

Affected packages Only the org.apache.logging.log4j:log4j-core package is directly affected by this vulnerability. The org.apache.logging.log4j:log4j-api should be kept at the same version as the org.apache.logging.log4j:log4j-core package to ensure compatability if in use.

Remediation Advice

Updated advice for version 2.16.0

The Apache Logging Services team provided updated mitigation advice upon the release of version 2.16.0, which disables JNDI by default and completely removes support for message lookups. Even in version 2.15.0, lookups used in layouts to provide specific pieces of context information will still recursively resolve, possibly triggering JNDI lookups. This problem is being tracked as CVE-2021-45046. More information is available on the GitHub Security Advisory for CVE-2021-45046.

Users who want to avoid attacker-controlled JNDI lookups but cannot upgrade to 2.16.0 must ensure that no such lookups resolve to attacker-provided data and ensure that the the JndiLookup class is not loaded.

Please note that Log4J v1 is End Of Life (EOL) and will not receive patches for this issue. Log4J v1 is also vulnerable to other RCE vectors and we recommend you migrate to Log4J 2.16.0 where possible.

Roundcube before 1.3.17 and 1.4.x before 1.4.12 is prone to a potential SQL injection via search or searchparams.

An out-of-bounds write in function apescapequotes of httpd allows an unauthenticated remote attacker to crash the server or potentially execute code on the system with the privileges of the httpd user, by providing malicious input to the function.

A crafted request uri-path can cause modproxy to forward the request to an origin server choosen by the remote user. This issue affects Apache HTTP Server 2.4.48 and earlier.

adtsdecodeextradata in libavformat/adtsenc.c in FFmpeg 4.4 does not check the initgetbits return value, which is a necessary step because the second argument to initgetbits can be crafted.

Btrbk before 0.31.2 allows command execution because of the mishandling of remote hosts filtering SSH commands using sshfilterbtrbk.sh in authorizedkeys.

NGINX before 1.13.6 has a buffer overflow for years that exceed four digits, as demonstrated by a file with a modification date in 1969 that causes an integer overflow (or a false modification date far in the future), when encountered by the autoindex module.
