xrdp is an open source remote desktop protocol (RDP) server. In affected versions an integer underflow leading to a heap overflow in the sesman server allows any unauthenticated attacker which is able to locally access a sesman server to execute code as root. This vulnerability has been patched in version 0.9.18.1 and above. Users are advised to upgrade. There are no known workarounds.

OpenEXR 3.1.x before 3.1.4 has a heap-based buffer overflow in Imf31::LineCompositeTask::execute (called from IlmThread31::NullThreadPoolProvider::addTask and IlmThread31::ThreadPool::addGlobalTask). NOTE: db217f2 may be inapplicable.

libmysofa is vulnerable to Heap-based Buffer Overflow

A missing bounds check in the image loader used in Blender 3.x and 2.93.8 leads to out-of-bounds heap access, allowing an attacker to cause denial of service, memory corruption or potentially code execution.

A symbolic link issue was found in rpm. It occurs when rpm sets the desired permissions and credentials after installing a file. A local unprivileged user could use this flaw to exchange the original file with a symbolic link to a security-critical file and escalate their privileges on the system. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to data confidentiality and integrity as well as system availability.

sssctlruncommand() is a wrapper for running commands via a shell, using glibc's system() function call. sssctlcacheexpire() and sssctllogsfetch() allow user provided arguments, and pass them to sssctlruncommand() sssctl is limited to root user, however, if an administrator allows unprivileged users to provide arguments to the command (e.g.: via sudo), this could be used to elevate privileges via a shell injection.

Although there are no known default configuration where this flaw could be exploited, the admin could have manually created sudo rules to let regular users use sssctl commands, or could be tricked into running a specially crafted sssctl command.

Libreswan 4.2 through 4.5 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and daemon crash) via a crafted IKEv1 packet because pluto/ikev1.c wrongly expects that a state object exists. This is fixed in 4.6.

A remote stack overflow in the TIPC networking module. With FORTIFYSOURCE's stricter memcpy() bounds checking, this can be exploited to cause remote DOS via kernel panic on systems using TIPC. Prior to these bounds checks, and with a canary leak (or no CONFIGSTACKPROTECTOR), this can be exploited for RCE.

A flaw was found in unrestricted eBPF usage by the BPFBTFLOAD, leading to a possible out-of-bounds memory write in the Linux kernel’s BPF subsystem due to the way a user loads BTF. This flaw allows a local user to crash or escalate their privileges on the system.

A flaw in the Linux Kernel found. If unprivileged users can mount FUSE filesystems, then can trigger use after free (UAF) that reads of write() buffers, allowing theft of (partial) /etc/shadow hashes or any other data from filesystem.

FUSE allows the userspace filesystem to specify on FUSEOPEN whether the file should use the normal kernel pagecache for handling read()/write() or just send FUSEREAD/FUSEWRITE requests directly to the userspace filesystem (using the flag FOPENDIRECTIO in fuseopenout::openflags).

In FOPENDIRECTIO mode, fusefilewriteiter() calls fusedirectwriteiter(), which normally calls fusedirectio(), which then imports the write buffer with fusegetuserpages(), which uses iovitergetpages() to grab references to userspace pages instead of actually copying memory.

On the filesystem device side, these pages can then either be read to userspace (via fusedevread()), or splice()d over into a pipe using fusedevspliceread() as pipe buffers with &nostealpipebufops.

This is wrong because after fusedevdoread() unlocks the FUSE request, the userspace filesystem can mark the request as completed, causing write() to return. At that point, the write buffer may be reused for other purposes, and the userspace filesystem should no longer have access to it.

In kernel/bpf/verifier.c , there is a possible way to manipulate pointer arithmetic due to a logic error in the code. This could lead to local escalation of privilege with no additional execution privileges needed. User interaction is not needed for exploitation.

In the Linux kernel through 5.15.2, hwatlutilsfwrpcwait in drivers/net/ethernet/aquantia/atlantic/hwatl/hwatlutils.c allows an attacker (who can introduce a crafted device) to trigger an out-of-bounds write via a crafted length value.

A double-free flaw was found in the Linux kernel in the emsusbstartxmit function. This flaw allows an attacker to create a memory leak and corrupt the underlying data structure by calling free more than once.

drivers/usb/gadget/legacy/inode.c in the Linux kernel through 5.16.8 mishandles dev->buf release.

An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel before 5.11.11. qrtrrecvmsg in net/qrtr/qrtr.c allows attackers to obtain sensitive information from kernel memory because of a partially uninitialized data structure, aka CID-50535249f624.

In checkstackwritefixedoff and related functions of verifier.c, there is a possible out of bounds read due to side channel information disclosure. This could lead to local escalation of privilege with System execution privileges needed. User interaction is not needed for exploitation.

An out-of-bounds (OOB) memory read flaw was found in the Qualcomm IPC router protocol in the Linux kernel. A missing sanity check allows a local attacker to gain access to out-of-bounds memory, leading to a system crash or a leak of internal kernel information. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to system availability.

In htabmaplookupanddeletebatch of hashtab.c, there is a possible out of bounds write due to an integer overflow. This could lead to local escalation of privilege with System execution privileges needed. User interaction is not needed for exploitation.

An out-of-bounds (OOB) memory write flaw was found in preallocelemsandfreelist in kernel/bpf/stackmap.c in the bpf iin the Linux kernel. In this flaw, the multiplication to calculate the size could lead to an integer overflow, and this could allow a local attacker, with a special user privilege to gain access to out-of-bounds memory leading to a system crash or a leak of internal kernel information.

A heap buffer overflow flaw was found in IPsec ESP transformation code in net/ipv4/esp4.c and net/ipv6/esp6.c. This flaw allows a local attacker with a normal user privilege to overwrite kernel heap objects and may cause a local privilege escalation threat.

A flaw buffer overflow in the Linux kernel TIPC protocol functionality was found in the way user uses protocol with encryption enabled. A local user could use this flaw to crash the system.

A flaw was found in kernel/bpf/verifier.c in BPF in the Linux kernel. An incorrect limit is enforced for pointer arithmetic operations which can be abused to perform out-of-bounds reads and writes in kernel memory, leading to local privilege escalation. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to data confidentiality and integrity as well as system availability.

(from https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2022-25314) In Expat (aka libexpat) before 2.4.5, there is an integer overflow in copyString.

In copyString of xmlparse.c, there is a possible memory corruption due to an integer overflow. This could lead to local escalation of privilege with no additional execution privileges needed. User interaction is not needed for exploitation.

A flaw was found in expat. The vulnerability occurs due to large content in element type declarations when there is an element declaration handler present which leads to an integer overflow. This flaw allows an attacker to inject an unsigned integer, leading to a crash or a denial of service.

A flaw was found in the Linux kernels eBPF verification code. By default accessing the eBPF verifier is only accessible to privileged users with CAPSYSADMIN. A local user with the ability to insert eBPF instructions can use the eBPF verifier to abuse a spectre like flaw where they can infer all system memory.

A flaw was discovered in the cryptographic receive code in the Linux kernel's implementation of transparent interprocess communication. An attacker, with the ability to send TIPC messages to the target, can corrupt memory and escalate privileges on the target system.
