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.
A flaw was found in OpenSSL's Online Certificate Status Protocol (OCSP) response functionality in the signer certificate verification routines. This flaw could result in a linked application falsely believing that an x.509 Digital Certificate is either "good" or "unknown" when revoked and requires that the application use a non-default configuration. This vulnerability leads to an issue with data integrity and confidentiality.
A memory leak flaw was found in OpenSSL, resulting in TLS servers and clients being halted by out-of-memory conditions, leading to a denial of service. An attacker needs to repeat actions continuously to trigger this vulnerability, resulting in a loss of application availability.
A flaw was found in OpenSSL. The issue in CVE-2022-1292 did not find other places in the crehash script where it possibly passed the file names of certificates being hashed to a command executed through the shell. Some operating systems distribute this script in a manner where it is automatically executed. On these operating systems, this flaw allows an attacker to execute arbitrary commands with the privileges of the script.

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel implementation of userspace core dumps. This flaw allows anyone with access to core dumps to see a small amount of private kernel data about the current running kernels internal state which could be used to further allow an attack to more reliably execute. This information could be user processes or kernel state from previous executions.

In the Linux kernel 5.0.21 and 5.3.11, mounting a crafted btrfs filesystem image, performing some operations, and then making a syncfs system call can lead to a use-after-free in trymergefreespace in fs/btrfs/free-space-cache.c because the pointer to a left data structure can be the same as the pointer to a right data structure.
An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through 5.18.14. xfrmexpandpolicies in net/xfrm/xfrmpolicy.c can cause a refcount to be dropped twice.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's mwifiex driver implementation when connecting to other WiFi devices in "Test Mode." A kernel memory leak can occur if an error condition is met during the parameter negotiation. This issue can lead to a denial of service if multiple error conditions meeting the repeated connection attempts are attempted.

In the Linux kernel, picknextrtentity() may return a type confused entry, not detected by the BUGON condition, as the confused entry will not be NULL, but listhead.The buggy error condition would lead to a type confused entry with the list head,which would then be used as a type confused schedrtentity,causing memory corruption.

A use-after-free flaw was observed in blkdevget(), in fs/blockdev.c after a call to blkdevget() fails, and its refcount gets freed/released. This problem may cause a denial of service problem with a special user privilege, and may even lead to a confidentiality issue.
An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel before 5.0.19. The XFRM subsystem has a use-after-free, related to an xfrmstatefini panic, aka CID-dbb2483b2a46.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel’s implementation of dropping sysctl entries. A local attacker who has access to load modules on the system can trigger a condition during module load failure and panic the system.
NTP is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by a memory leak when a CMAC key is used and associated with a CMAC algorithm in the ntp.keys file in ntpd. By sending specially-crafted packets, a remote authenticated attacker could exploit this vulnerability to consume all available memory resources.
