In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
A flaw was found in gnutls. Servers configured with RSA-PSK (Rivest–Shamir–Adleman – Pre-Shared Key) wrongfully matched usernames containing a NUL character with truncated usernames. A remote attacker could exploit this by sending a specially crafted username, leading to an authentication bypass. This vulnerability allows an attacker to gain unauthorized access by circumventing the authentication process.
A flaw in GnuTLS DTLS handshake parsing allows malformed fragments with zero length and non-zero offset, leading to an integer underflow during reassembly and resulting in an out-of-bounds read. This issue is remotely exploitable and may cause information disclosure or denial of service.
A flaw was found in the Samba printing subsystem. Samba passes the client-controlled job description string to the command configured with the "print command" setting via the "%J" substitution character without escaping shell meta characters. A remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending a specially crafted print job description that contains unescaped shell characters. This could lead to remote code execution on the affected system.
A flaw was found in libarchive. On 32-bit systems, an integer overflow vulnerability exists in the zisofs block pointer allocation logic. A remote attacker can exploit this by providing a specially crafted ISO9660 image, which can lead to a heap buffer overflow. This could potentially allow for arbitrary code execution on the affected system.
An attacker can leverage sudo's -R (--chroot) option to run arbitrary commands as root, even if they are not listed in the sudoers file. Sudo versions 1.9.14 to 1.9.17 inclusive are affected.

NGINX ngxhttpproxyv2module and ngxhttpgrpcmodule vulnerability
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.
A buffer-underflow vulnerability exists in GLib’s GVariant parser, specifically within bytestringparse() and stringparse(). The parser uses signed 32-bit integers (gint) as loop indices (i and j). When extremely large strings are parsed, these counters overflow into negative values, causing the parser to write to memory before the start of the allocated buffer (str[j++]). This results in a classic out-of-bounds write condition. Because GVariant parsing is often performed on attacker-influenced data, a remote attacker can trigger heap corruption, causing a crash or potentially achieving code execution. This flaw has been confirmed by maintainers and patched upstream.
A flaw was found in FreeIPA. When a trust relationship is configured between FreeIPA and Active Directory, Active Directory users can bypass authentication for FreeIPA services, including the portal, SMB server, and LDAP directory. This is possible by impersonating a client name in the Ticket Granting Service (TGS) due to FreeIPA services not verifying Privilege Attribute Certificate (PAC) certificates. This vulnerability could allow an authenticated Active Directory user to escalate their privileges within the FreeIPA domain.
A vulnerability identified in NetIQ Advance Authentication that leaks sensitive server information. This issue affects NetIQ Advance Authentication version before 6.3.5.1
Impact
The Keylime registrar does not enforce mutual TLS (mTLS) client certificate authentication since version 7.12.0. The registrar's TLS context is configured with ssl.CERTOPTIONAL instead of ssl.CERTREQUIRED, allowing any client to connect to protected API endpoints without presenting a valid client certificate.
Who is impacted: - All Keylime deployments running versions 7.12.0 through 7.13.0 - Environments where the registrar HTTPS port (default 8891) is network-accessible to untrusted clients
What an attacker can do: - List all registered agents (GET /v2/agents/) - enumerate the entire agent inventory - Retrieve agent details (GET /v2/agents/{uuid}) - obtain public TPM keys, certificates, and network locations (IP/port) of any agent - Delete any agent (DELETE /v2/agents/{uuid}) - remove agents from the registry, disrupting attestation services
Note: The exposed TPM data (EK, AK, certificates) consists of public keys and certificates. Private keys remain protected within TPM hardware. The HMAC secret used for challenge-response validation is stored in the database but is not exposed via the API.
Affected versions: >= 7.12.0, <= 7.13.0
Fixed versions: 7.12.2, >= 7.13.1
Patches
A patch for the affected released versions is available. It removes the line that override the configuration of ssl.verifymode, leaving the CERTREQUIRED value set by webutil.initmtls():

Users should upgrade to the patched version once it is released.
Workarounds
If upgrading is not immediately possible, apply one of the following mitigations:
1. Network isolation (Recommended)
Restrict access to the registrar HTTPS port (default 8891) using firewall rules to allow only trusted hosts (verifier, tenant):
Example using iptables iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 8891 -s <verifierip> -j ACCEPT iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 8891 -s <tenantip> -j ACCEPT iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 8891 -j DROP
2. Reverse proxy with mTLS enforcement
Deploy a reverse proxy (nginx, HAProxy) in front of the registrar that enforces client certificate authentication:
Example nginx configuration server { listen 8891 ssl; sslcertificate /path/to/server.crt; sslcertificatekey /path/to/server.key; sslclientcertificate /path/to/ca.crt; sslverifyclient on; # Enforce client certificates
location / { proxypass https://localhost:8892; # Internal registrar port } }
A heap-based buffer overflow flaw was found in the rsync daemon. This issue is due to improper handling of attacker-controlled checksum lengths (s2length) in the code. When MAXDIGESTLEN exceeds the fixed SUMLENGTH (16 bytes), an attacker can write out of bounds in the sum2 buffer.
A flaw was found in the X.Org X server. This vulnerability, an out-of-bounds read, affects the XKB (X Keyboard Extension) modifier map handling. An attacker with access to the X11 server can exploit this by sending a malformed request, which causes the server to read beyond its intended memory boundaries. This can lead to the exposure of sensitive information or cause the server to crash, resulting in a denial of service.
A flaw was found in the X.Org X server. This out-of-bounds read vulnerability in the XKB geometry processing, specifically within the CheckSetGeom() and XkbAddGeomKeyAlias functions, allows an attacker to read uninitialized or out-of-bounds memory. An attacker with a connection to the X11 server, either locally or remotely, can exploit this without user interaction. This could lead to the disclosure of memory contents or cause a denial of service by crashing the server.
