A vulnerability was discovered in Python. A quadratic algorithm exists when processing inputs to the IDNA (RFC 3490) decoder, such that a crafted unreasonably long name being presented to the decoder could lead to a CPU denial of service. Hostnames are often supplied by remote servers that could be controlled by a malicious actor, which could trigger excessive CPU consumption on the client attempting to make use of an attacker-supplied hostname.

A race problem was seen in the vtkioctl in drivers/tty/vt/vtioctl.c in the Linux kernel, which may cause an out of bounds read in vt as the write access to vcmode is not protected by lock-in vtioctl (KDSETMDE). The highest threat from this vulnerability is to data confidentiality.

An issue was discovered in splithugepmd in mm/hugememory.c in the Linux kernel before 5.7.5. The copy-on-write implementation can grant unintended write access because of a race condition in a THP mapcount check, aka CID-c444eb564fb1.

DISPUTED In drivers/char/virtioconsole.c in the Linux kernel before 5.13.4, data corruption or loss can be triggered by an untrusted device that supplies a buf->len value exceeding the buffer size. NOTE: the vendor indicates that the cited data corruption is not a vulnerability in any existing use case; the length validation was added solely for robustness in the face of anomalous host OS behavior.

A vulnerability was found in sgwrite in drivers/scsi/sg.c in SCSI generic (sg) driver subsystem. An attacker with a local access and special user privilege (or root) can cause a denial of service (DoS) if allocated list is not cleaned with invalid (Sgfd sfp) pointer at the time of failure, failing this can even cause a kernel internal information leak problem.

gadgetdevdescUDCstore in drivers/usb/gadget/configfs.c in the Linux kernel 3.16 through 5.6.13 relies on kstrdup without considering the possibility of an internal '\0' value, which allows attackers to trigger an out-of-bounds read, aka CID-15753588bcd4.

A use-after-free read flaw was found in sockgetsockopt() in net/core/sock.c due to SOPEERCRED and SOPEERGROUPS race with listen() (and connect()) in the Linux kernel. In this flaw, an attacker with a user privilege may lead to a system crash or a leak of internal kernel information.

In this, if the creds are replaced and freed at the wrong time, a use-after-free read occurs.

A flaw was found in the way the mwifiexcmdappendvsietlv() in Linux kernel's Marvell WiFi-Ex driver handled vendor specific information elements. A local user could use this flaw to escalate their privileges on the system.

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel, where it allows userspace processes, for example, a guest VM, to directly access h/w devices via its VFIO driver modules. The VFIO modules allow users to enable or disable access to the devices' MMIO memory address spaces. If a user attempts to access the read/write devices' MMIO address space when it is disabled, some h/w devices issue an interrupt to the CPU to indicate a fatal error condition, crashing the system. This flaw allows a guest user or process to crash the host system resulting in a denial of service.

There is a use-after-free in kernel versions before 5.5 due to a race condition between the release of ptpclock and cdev while resource deallocation. When a (high privileged) process allocates a ptp device file (like /dev/ptpX) and voluntarily goes to sleep. During this time if the underlying device is removed, it can cause an exploitable condition as the process wakes up to terminate and clean all attached files. The system crashes due to the cdev structure being invalid (as already freed) which is pointed to by the inode.

An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel before 5.4.17. drivers/spi/spi-dw.c allows attackers to cause a panic via concurrent calls to dwspiirq and dwspitransferone, aka CID-19b61392c5a8.

drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath6kl/usb.c in the Linux kernel through 5.2.9 has a NULL pointer dereference via an incomplete address in an endpoint descriptor.

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 malicious server can serve excessive amounts of Set-Cookie: headers in a HTTP response to curl and curl < 7.84.0 stores all of them. A sufficiently large amount of (big) cookies make subsequent HTTP requests to this, or other servers to which the cookies match, create requests that become larger than the threshold that curl uses internally to avoid sending crazy large requests (1048576 bytes) and instead returns an error.This denial state might remain for as long as the same cookies are kept, match and haven't expired. Due to cookie matching rules, a server on foo.example.com can set cookies that also would match for bar.example.com, making it it possible for a "sister server" to effectively cause a denial of service for a sibling site on the same second level domain using this method.

A vulnerability was found in curl. This issue occurs because when curl saves cookies, alt-svc, and HSTS data to local files, it makes the operation atomic by finalizing the process with a rename from a temporary name to the final target file name. This flaw leads to unpreserved file permissions, either by mistake or by a malicious actor.

A vulnerability was found in curl. This issue occurs because it mishandles message verification failures when curl does FTP transfers secured by krb5. This flaw makes it possible for a Man-in-the-middle attack to go unnoticed and allows data injection into the client.

A vulnerability was found in curl. This issue occurs because the number of acceptable "links" in the "decompression chain" was unbounded, allowing a malicious server to insert a virtually unlimited number of compression steps. This flaw leads to a denial of service, either by mistake or by a malicious actor.

A flaw was found in Apache Santuario (XML Security for Java) in the way it processed some paths. A remote attacker could use this flaw to circumvent the "secure validation" feature and disclose potentially sensitive information in local XML files.

An unspecified vulnerability in Java SE related to the JNDI component could allow an unauthenticated attacker to cause no confidentiality impact, low integrity impact, and no availability impact.

Eclipse Jetty is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by an error related to some of the production servers spiking with CPU use. A remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to consume CPU that remains high even without any traffic.

A vulnerability found in curl. This security flaw happens when curl is used to retrieve and parse cookies from an HTTP(S) server, where it accepts cookies using control codes (byte values below 32), and also when cookies that contain such control codes are later sent back to an HTTP(S) server, possibly causing the server to return a 400 response. This issue effectively allows a "sister site" to deny service to siblings and cause a denial of service attack.

An issue was discovered in the Linux Kernel from 4.18 to 4.19, an improper update of sock reference in TCP pacing can lead to memory/netns leak, which can be used by remote clients.

A flaw was found in OpenSSL versions from 1.1.0 through 1.1.0i inclusive and version 1.1.1. The OpenSSL ECDSA signature algorithm has been shown to be vulnerable to a timing side channel attack. An attacker could use variations in the signing algorithm to recover the private key.

glibc is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by a memory corruption by the Name Service Cache Daemon's (nscd) netgroup cache when the NSS callback fails to store all strings in the provided buffer. A local attacker could exploit this vulnerability to corrupt memory and cause a denial of service.

libxslt through 1.1.33 allows bypass of a protection mechanism because callers of xsltCheckRead and xsltCheckWrite permit access even upon receiving a -1 error code. xsltCheckRead can return -1 for a crafted URL that is not actually invalid and is subsequently loaded.

An issue was discovered in drivers/media/platform/vivid in the Linux kernel through 5.3.8. It is exploitable for privilege escalation on some Linux distributions where local users have /dev/video0 access, but only if the driver happens to be loaded. There are multiple race conditions during streaming stopping in this driver (part of the V4L2 subsystem). These issues are caused by wrong mutex locking in vividstopgeneratingvidcap(), vividstopgeneratingvidout(), sdrcapstopstreaming(), and the corresponding kthreads. At least one of these race conditions leads to a use-after-free.

netrc and default credential leak

fs/nfsd/trace.h in the Linux kernel before 5.13.4 might allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read in strlen) by sending NFS traffic when the trace event framework is being used for nfsd.

An issue was discovered in OpenSSH 7.9. Due to missing character encoding in the progress display, a malicious server (or Man-in-The-Middle attacker) can employ crafted object names to manipulate the client output, e.g., by using ANSI control codes to hide additional files being transferred. This affects refreshprogressmeter() in progressmeter.c.

In OpenSSH 7.9, due to accepting and displaying arbitrary stderr output from the server, a malicious server (or Man-in-The-Middle attacker) can manipulate the client output, for example to use ANSI control codes to hide additional files being transferred.
