A flaw was found in the Apache Log4j logging library 2.x. when the logging configuration uses a non-default Pattern Layout with a Context Lookup. Attackers with control over Thread Context Map (MDC) input data can craft malicious input data that contains a recursive lookup and can cause Denial of Service.

A vulnerability was found in Hibernate-Validator. The SafeHtml validator annotation fails to properly sanitize payloads consisting of potentially malicious code in HTML comments and instructions. This vulnerability can result in an XSS attack.

Vulnerability in the Advanced Networking Option component of Oracle Database Server. Supported versions that are affected are 12.1.0.2, 12.2.0.1 and 19c. Difficult to exploit vulnerability allows unauthenticated attacker with network access via Oracle Net to compromise Advanced Networking Option. Successful attacks require human interaction from a person other than the attacker and while the vulnerability is in Advanced Networking Option, attacks may significantly impact additional products. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in takeover of Advanced Networking Option. Note: The July 2021 Critical Patch Update introduces a number of Native Network Encryption changes to deal with vulnerability CVE-2021-2351 and prevent the use of weaker ciphers. Customers should review: "Changes in Native Network Encryption with the July 2021 Critical Patch Update" (Doc ID 2791571.1). CVSS 3.1 Base Score 8.3 (Confidentiality, Integrity and Availability impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H).

In SQLite before 3.32.3 select.c mishandles query-flattener optimization leading to a multiSelectOrderBy heap overflow because of misuse of transitive properties for constant propagation.

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 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.

c3p0 version < 0.9.5.4 may be exploited by a billion laughs attack when loading XML configuration due to missing protections against recursive entity expansion when loading configuration.

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.

Apache Ant 1.1 to 1.9.14 and 1.10.0 to 1.10.7 uses the default temporary directory identified by the Java system property java.io.tmpdir for several tasks and may thus leak sensitive information. The fixcrlf and replaceregexp tasks also copy files from the temporary directory back into the build tree allowing an attacker to inject modified source files into the build process.

Impact Passing HTML from untrusted sources - even after sanitizing it - to one of jQuery's DOM manipulation methods (i.e. .html(), .append(), and others) may execute untrusted code.

Patches This problem is patched in jQuery 3.5.0.

Workarounds To workaround the issue without upgrading, adding the following to your code:

js jQuery.htmlPrefilter = function( html ) { return html; };

You need to use at least jQuery 1.12/2.2 or newer to be able to apply this workaround.

A NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in libxml2, where it did not propagate errors while parsing XML mixed content. This flaw causes the application to crash if an untrusted XML document is parsed in recovery mode and post validated. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to system availability.

ActionKit. An input validation issue was addressed with improved input validation.

A flaw was found in python. A stack-based buffer overflow was discovered in the ctypes module provided within Python. Applications that use ctypes without carefully validating the input passed to it may be vulnerable to this flaw, which would allow an attacker to overflow a buffer on the stack and crash the application. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to system availability.

Impact

When provided with a URL containing many @ characters in the authority component the authority regular expression exhibits catastrophic backtracking causing a denial of service if a URL were passed as a parameter or redirected to via an HTTP redirect.

Patches

The issue has been fixed in urllib3 v1.26.5.

Apache HTTP Server versions 2.4.20 to 2.4.43. A specially crafted value for the 'Cache-Digest' header in a HTTP/2 request would result in a crash when the server actually tries to HTTP/2 PUSH a resource afterwards. Configuring the HTTP/2 feature via "H2Push off" will mitigate this vulnerability for unpatched servers.

In SQLite 3.31.1, isAuxiliaryVtabOperator allows attackers to trigger a NULL pointer dereference and segmentation fault because of generated column optimizations.

GNOME libxml2 is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by an error in xmlStringLenDecodeEntities in parser.c. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability to cause the application to enter into an infinite loop.

A flaw was found in Apache's HTTP server (httpd) .The modproxyftp module may use uninitialized memory with proxying to a malicious FTP server. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to data confidentiality.

A flaw was found in Apache HTTP Server (httpd) versions 2.4.0 to 2.4.41. Redirects configured with modrewrite that were intended to be self-referential might be fooled by encoded newlines and redirected instead to an unexpected URL within the request URL.

A flaw was found in Apache httpd in versions 2.4.20 to 2.4.43. Logging using the wrong pool by modhttp2 at debug/trace log level may lead to potential crashes and denial of service. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to system availability.

A flaw was found in Apache httpd in versions 2.4.32 to 2.4.46. The uwsgi protocol does not serialize more than 16K of HTTP header leading to resource exhaustion and denial of service. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to data confidentiality and integrity as well as system availability.

A null pointer dereference flaw was found in openssl. A remote attacker, able to control the arguments of the GENERALNAMEcmp function, could cause the application, compiled with openssl to crash resulting in a denial of service. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to system availability.

A heap overflow flaw was found In Apache httpd modsession. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to system availability.

A flaw was found in Apache httpd. The modauthdigest has a single zero byte stack overflow. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to data confidentiality and integrity as well as system availability.

A NULL pointer dereference was found in Apache httpd modsession. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to system availability.

Apache HTTP Server versions 2.4.6 to 2.4.46 modproxywstunnel configured on an URL that is not necessarily Upgraded by the origin server was tunneling the whole connection regardless, thus allowing for subsequent requests on the same connection to pass through with no HTTP validation, authentication or authorization possibly configured.

Impact The vulnerability may allow a remote attacker has sufficient rights to execute commands of the host only by manipulating the processed input stream. No user is affected, who followed the recommendation to setup XStream's security framework with a whitelist limited to the minimal required types.

Patches If you rely on XStream's default blacklist of the Security Framework, you will have to use at least version 1.4.17.

Workarounds See workarounds for the different versions covering all CVEs.
