A flaw was found in libxml2's xmlBuildQName function, where integer overflows in buffer size calculations can lead to a stack-based buffer overflow. This issue can result in memory corruption or a denial of service when processing crafted input.

A security regression (CVE-2006-5051) was discovered in OpenSSH's server (sshd). There is a race condition which can lead sshd to handle some signals in an unsafe manner. An unauthenticated, remote attacker may be able to trigger it by failing to authenticate within a set time period.

Accessibility. A logic issue was addressed with improved checks.

A flaw was identified in the X.Org X server’s X Keyboard (Xkb) extension where improper bounds checking in the XkbSetCompatMap() function can cause an unsigned short overflow. If an attacker sends specially crafted input data, the value calculation may overflow, leading to memory corruption or a crash.

A flaw was discovered in the X.Org X server’s X Keyboard (Xkb) extension when handling client resource cleanup. The software frees certain data structures without properly detaching related resources, leading to a use-after-free condition. This can cause memory corruption or a crash when affected clients disconnect.

A flaw was found in rsync which could be triggered when rsync compares file checksums. This flaw allows an attacker to manipulate the checksum length (s2length) to cause a comparison between a checksum and uninitialized memory and leak one byte of uninitialized stack data at a time.

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.

An input validation flaw was found in the URL class implementation in the Networking component of OpenJDK. A URL class instance could have been created for a URL string containing invalid characters not permitted in URLs.

An infinite loop flaw was found in the RIFF (Resource Interchange File Format) file format reader in the Sound component of OpenJDK. A specially crafted RIFF file could cause a Java application to enter an infinite loop while reading the RIFF file.

It was discovered that the implementation of the Throwable class in the Utilities component of OpenJDK did not sufficiently validate serial stream before deserializing suppressed exceptions. A specially-crafted input could cause a Java application to construct inconsistent object and possibly use an excessive amount of system resources when deserialized.

It was discovered that the implementation of the Collections class in the Utilities component of OpenJDK did not limit the amount of memory allocated when creating object instance from a serialized form. A specially-crafted input could cause a Java application to use an excessive amount of memory when deserialized.

It was discovered that the AccessController class implementation in the Security component of OpenJDK failed, in certain cases, to consider the current context and correctly restrict privileges based on it. An untrusted Java application or applet could use this flaw to bypass certain Java sandbox restrictions.

A certificate verification flaw was found in the JSSE component of OpenJDK. No check was preformed during the TLS session resumption to ensure that the same endpoint identification algorithm had been used when originally opening the session as was required when resuming the session. In certain cases, this could lead to having TLS connection established without required server identity verification.

A flaw was found in the Apache Commons BeanUtils, where the class property in PropertyUtilsBean is not suppressed by default. This flaw allows an attacker to access the classloader.

A random memory access flaw was found in the Linux kernel's GPU i915 kernel driver functionality in the way a user may run malicious code on the GPU. This flaw allows a local user to crash the system or escalate their privileges on the system.

A flaw in Node.js HTTP request handling causes an uncaught TypeError when a request is received with a header named proto and the application accesses req.headersDistinct.

When this occurs, dest["proto"] resolves to Object.prototype rather than undefined, causing .push() to be called on a non-array. This exception is thrown synchronously inside a property getter and cannot be intercepted by error event listeners, meaning it cannot be handled without wrapping every req.headersDistinct access in a try/catch.

This vulnerability affects all Node.js HTTP servers on 20.x, 22.x, 24.x, and v25.x

A Local Privilege Escalation vulnerability (from any user to root) was found in polkit's pkexec, a SUID-root program that is installed by default on every major Linux distribution.

A flaw was found in libsoup. The package is vulnerable to a heap buffer over-read when sniffing content via the skipinsightwhitespace() function. Libsoup clients may read one byte out-of-bounds in response to a crafted HTTP response by an HTTP server.

A vulnerability identified in NetIQ Advance Authentication that leaks sensitive server information. This issue affects NetIQ Advance Authentication version before 6.3.5.1

A vulnerability was found in Buildah. Cache mounts do not properly validate that user-specified paths for the cache are within our cache directory, allowing a RUN instruction in a Container file to mount an arbitrary directory from the host (read/write) into the container as long as those files can be accessed by the user running Buildah.

Description: Due to a buffer overflow bug Squid is vulnerable to a Denial of Service attack against HTTP Digest Authentication

Affected versions: 3.2.0.1-5.9, 6.0-6.3

A vulnerability was found in Unbound due to incorrect default permissions, allowing any process outside the unbound group to modify the unbound runtime configuration. If a process can connect over localhost to port 8953, it can alter the configuration of unbound.service. This flaw allows an unprivileged attacker to manipulate a running instance, potentially altering forwarders, allowing them to track all queries forwarded by the local resolver, and, in some cases, disrupting resolving altogether.

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.

Multiple vulnerabilities in the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) component in Oracle Java SE 7 Update 6 and earlier allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted applet that bypasses SecurityManager restrictions by (1) using com.sun.beans.finder.ClassFinder.findClass and leveraging an exception with the forName method to access restricted classes from arbitrary packages such as sun.awt.SunToolkit, then (2) using "reflection with a trusted immediate caller" to leverage the getField method to access and modify private fields, as exploited in the wild in August 2012 using Gondzz.class and Gondvv.class.

A vulnerability was discovered in Tomcat where if a servlet context was configured with readonly=false and HTTP PUT requests were allowed, an attacker could upload a JSP file to that context and achieve code execution.

Unspecified vulnerability in the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) component in Oracle Java SE 7 update 4 and earlier, 6 update 32 and earlier, 5 update 35 and earlier, and 1.4.237 and earlier allows remote attackers to affect confidentiality, integrity, and availability via unknown vectors related to Hotspot.

A flaw was found in Node.js versions before 6.15.0, 8.14.0, 10.14.0 and 11.3.0. A Denial of Service with large HTTP headers. By using a combination of many requests with maximum sized headers (almost 80 KB per connection), and carefully timed completion of the headers, it is possible to cause the HTTP server to abort from heap allocation failure. Attack potential is mitigated by the use of a load balancer or other proxy layer.
