A Null pointer de-reference problem was found in idafree in lib/idr.c file when it calls the xasload function and returns a null value, assigning NULL to the bitmap variable.

Therefore, if (xaisvalue(bitmap)) will fail and jump to the else branch. However, in the else branch, the statement if (!testbit(bit, bitmap->bitmap)) references the member of bitmap, which triggers a null pointer dereference vulnerability.

A heap-buffer-overflow vulnerability exists in the APNG (Animated PNG) file loader of GIMP. This flaw occurs when the fcTL width exceeds the IHDR width, leading to pixel data being written past the end of a heap allocation. Additionally, a heap-based buffer overflow exists in the DDS plug-in due to a BPP mismatch in the loadlayer() function. Both vulnerabilities can be triggered by opening a specially crafted image file, potentially leading to code execution.

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 Cross-site request forgery vulnerability exists in ipa/session/loginpassword in all supported versions of IPA. This flaw allows an attacker to trick the user into submitting a request that could perform actions as the user, resulting in a loss of confidentiality and system integrity. During community penetration testing it was found that for certain HTTP end-points FreeIPA does not ensure CSRF protection. Due to implementation details one cannot use this flaw for reflection of a cookie representing already logged-in user. An attacker would always have to go through a new authentication attempt.

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 heap overflow flaw was found in 389-ds-base. This issue leads to a denial of service when writing a value larger than 256 chars in logentryattr.

A vulnerability was found in OpenSC where PKCS#1 encryption padding removal is not implemented as side-channel resistant. This issue may result in the potential leak of private data.

A symlink traversal vulnerability in the containers/storage library can cause Podman, Buildah, and CRI-O to hang and potentially be DoSed via OOM kill when running a malicious image using an automatically assigned user namespace (--userns=auto in Podman and Buildah). The containers/storage library will read /etc/passwd inside the container, but does not properly validate if that file is a symlink, which can be used to cause the library to read an arbitrary file on the host. This file is only read, and if it does not properly parse as a copy of /etc/passwd it will cause an error (there is a small risk of information disclosure via the error message here as elements of the file that failed to parse can be included, but this is only as the user running Podman/Buildah/CRI-O so it wouldn't be a file they did not already have access to). The report here discovered that you can symlink /etc/passwd in the container to a FIFO on the host, causing a hang as the file cannot be completely read (or an OOM condition if the FIFO is continuously written to, which was then ready by Podman). This hang could occur in a critical section in the c/storage library, blocking other processes from creating containers, but could be easily solved via a SIGKILL of the affected process. The ability to potentially crash the CRI-O service via OOM kill could be more relevant, though the attacker would have to know the path of a FIFO that is regularly being written to on the host in order to do this.

A flaw was found in rsync. It could allow a server to enumerate the contents of an arbitrary file from the client's machine. This issue occurs when files are being copied from a client to a server. During this process, the rsync server will send checksums of local data to the client to compare with in order to determine what data needs to be sent to the server. By sending specially constructed checksum values for arbitrary files, an attacker may be able to reconstruct the data of those files byte-by-byte based on the responses from the client.

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.

Fragnesia is a universal Linux local privilege escalation exploit, discovered by William Bowling with the V12 team. Fragnesia is a member of the Dirty Frag vulnerability class. This is a separate bug in the ESP/XFRM from dirtyfrag which has received its own patch. However, it is in the same surface and the mitigation is the same as for dirtyfrag.

It abuses a logic bug in the Linux XFRM ESP-in-TCP subsystem to achieve arbitrary byte writes into the kernel page cache of read-only files, without requiring any race condition.

The technique extends the page-cache write bug class that includes Dirty Pipe: when a TCP socket transitions to espintcp ULP mode after data has already been spliced from a file into the receive queue, the kernel processes the queued file pages as ESP ciphertext. The AES-GCM keystream byte at counter block position 2, byte 0 is XORed directly into the cached file page. By selecting the IV nonce to produce a desired keystream byte, any target byte in the file can be set to any value — one byte per trigger invocation.

The exploit builds a 256-entry lookup table mapping each possible keystream byte to its corresponding nonce, then iterates over a payload, firing the splice/ULP race for each byte that needs changing. It writes a small position-independent ELF stub (setresuid/setresgid/execve /bin/sh) over the first 192 bytes of /usr/bin/su in the page cache, then calls execve("/usr/bin/su") to obtain a root shell. The page cache modification is not backed to disk; the on-disk binary is untouched.

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 remote stack overflow in the TIPC networking module. With FORTIFYSOURCE's stricter memcpy() bounds checking, this can be exploited to cause remote DOS via kernel panic on systems using TIPC. Prior to these bounds checks, and with a canary leak (or no CONFIGSTACKPROTECTOR), this can be exploited for RCE.

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.

.A flaw was found in the CAN BCM networking protocol in the Linux kernel, where a local attacker can abuse a flaw in the CAN subsystem to corrupt memory, crash the system or escalate privileges. This race condition in net/can/bcm.c in the Linux kernel allows for local privilege escalation to root.

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 flaw was found in libssh server-side GSSAPIKeyExchange authorization. In sshpacketuserauthrequest() in src/messages.c, the gssapi-keyex login path granted success after Kerberos authentication without dispatching the callback that verifies whether the authenticated principal is authorized for the requested local user. On servers with GSSAPIKeyExchange enabled, an authenticated client can therefore log in as an arbitrary local user if the missing principal-to-user authorization check is relied upon for access control.

A flaw was found in xorg-server. Querying or changing XKB button actions such as moving from a touchpad to a mouse can result in out-of-bounds memory reads and writes. This may allow local privilege escalation or possible remote code execution in cases where X11 forwarding is involved.

A vulnerability was found in MariaDB. An OpenVAS port scan on ports 3306 and 4567 allows a malicious remote client to cause a denial of service.

An Out-Of-Bounds Read vulnerability in smbCalcSize in fs/smb/client/netmisc.c in the Linux Kernel. This flaw could allow a local attacker to crash the system or leak internal kernel information.

A memory disclosure vulnerability was found in PostgreSQL that allows remote users to access sensitive information by exploiting certain aggregate function calls with 'unknown'-type arguments. Handling 'unknown'-type values from string literals without type designation can disclose bytes, potentially revealing notable and confidential information. This issue exists due to excessive data output in aggregate function calls, enabling remote users to read some portion of system memory.

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 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.

A flaw was found in GLib. A state confusion issue exists in gdbusnodeinfonewforxml() in the gio/gdbusintrospection.c file when processing malformed D-Bus introspection XML, specifically with a node element nested within other elements like method, signal, property or arg. This issue can cause an unsigned integer overflow and lead to an out-of-bounds read, resulting in a denial of service.

An out-of-bounds memory access flaw was found in the X.Org server. This issue can be triggered when a device frozen by a sync grab is reattached to a different master device. This issue may lead to an application crash, local privilege escalation (if the server runs with extended privileges), or remote code execution in SSH X11 forwarding environments.
