A flaw was found in GStreamer gst-plugins-good (avidemux). In gstavidemuxriffparsevprp(), the number of available gstriffvprpvideofielddesc entries is calculated by dividing the remaining buffer size by the attacker-controlled vprp->fields value, rather than by sizeof(gstriffvprpvideofielddesc). This can cause the parser to treat more field descriptors as available than fit in the input buffer, resulting in out-of-bounds reads. Processing a crafted AVI via playbin/decodebin can crash the application (denial of service). Fixed upstream in gst-plugins-good 1.28.6 (GStreamer-SA-2026-0072).
A flaw was found in GStreamer gst-plugins-good (avidemux). When parsing FUJIFILM metadata in an AVI strd chunk, gstavidemuxparsestrd() decrements a remaining-length counter by fixed offsets (98 and 10 bytes) without verifying sufficient data remains. For crafted strd payloads of exactly 106 or 107 bytes, the counter underflows to a very large unsigned value, causing subsequent null-terminated string scanning to read far beyond the allocated heap buffer. Date-format normalization may also write beyond the buffer end. Confirmed impacts include heap out-of-bounds read, out-of-bounds write, heap information disclosure (adjacent data appearing in parsed metadata), and application crash/denial of service. The avidemux element is auto-plugged by playbin, decodebin, and gst-discoverer, so opening or previewing a crafted AVI is sufficient to trigger the issue. Fixed upstream in gst-plugins-good 1.28.6 (GStreamer-SA-2026-0072).
A flaw was found in 389 Directory Server (389-ds-base). In idssaslcheckbind(), on a successful SASLOK from the underlying Cyrus SASL library, the connection is marked SASL-complete and bind credentials are installed via bindcredentialssetnolock() before the account-lock check (slapicheckaccountlock()) is performed for non-root binds. If the subsequent lock check determines the account is locked (nsAccountLock: true), the bind is failed and reported to the client, but the already-installed SASL-complete flag and bind credentials are not reverted. A client that already knows the correct password for an account that has since been administratively locked can bind via SASL PLAIN, receive an "account locked" failure response, and continue using the same, already-authenticated TCP connection to perform further LDAP operations as that account -- defeating account lock as an access-revocation control. Setting nsslapd-close-on-failed-bind does not mitigate this. This finding was independently reported by two unrelated parties (OpenAI Security Research and Andrew Rukin of Arenadata) who converged on the identical root cause.
A flaw was found in SSSD. The sssnssprotocolparseaddr() function in the NSS responder (src/responder/nss/nssprotocol.c) extracts a 32-bit addrlen value from the client request but only validates that the body is at least 8 bytes, without checking that addrlen fits within the remaining packet body. This unvalidated length is passed through to tallocmemdup() in cachereqdatacreate(), which copies addrlen bytes from the small request buffer, causing a heap-buffer-overflow read. A local attacker can trigger this by connecting to the world-writable NSS responder socket (/var/lib/sss/pipes/nss) and sending a SSSNSSGETHOSTBYADDR (0x0053) request with a large addrlen value and a valid address family payload so that inetntop() succeeds. Successful exploitation crashes the sssdnss responder, causing a denial of service for NSS name resolution. Reported via PSIRTSUPT-20553 by BreachX Zero Day Labs.
A flaw was found in the file-sgi plugin in GIMP, affecting all versions. When processing an RLE-compressed SGI image, the plugin allocates memory for a row table. The image header dimensions (ysize and zsize) are read as 16-bit unsigned integers. If a crafted file sets both dimensions to their maximum value (65535), the multiplication ysize zsize overflows the standard 32-bit int boundary before being passed to calloc. This integer overflow issue results in undefined behavior, aborting the plugin and causing a denial of service.
A flaw was found in 389-ds-base where the LDBM backend attribute encryption uses a hardcoded static initialization vector for AES-CBC and 3DES-CBC operations, allowing an attacker with privileged filesystem access to detect plaintext equality across encrypted entries by comparing ciphertext blocks.
A heap-buffer-overflow flaw was found in 389 Directory Server (389-ds-base). When normalizing a Distinguished Name (DN) that contains a legacy-quoted value encoding a multivalued nested Relative Distinguished Name (RDN), the server can write past the end of a heap allocation while sorting RDN attribute-value pairs. An unauthenticated remote attacker can trigger this condition by sending an LDAP operation whose DN reaches the DN normalization routine, such as a search with a crafted base DN. This can corrupt heap memory and may cause denial of service.
A flaw was found in p11-kit. The RPC message attribute parsing functions p11rpcmessagegetattribute() and p11rpcmessagegetattributearrayvalue() form a mutually-recursive call chain with no recursion depth limit when processing nested CKAWRAPTEMPLATE, CKAUNWRAPTEMPLATE, and CKADERIVETEMPLATE attributes. An unauthenticated attacker with local access to the p11-kit RPC Unix domain socket can send a specially crafted request with deeply nested template attributes, causing stack exhaustion and crashing the p11-kit server process and its dependent services.
A flaw was found in the libblkid library of util-linux. During nested partition probing, the BSD, Minix, Solaris x86, and UnixWare partition probers cache a raw pointer to a parent partition entry in a dynamically allocated array. When subsequent partition additions cause the array to be reallocated, this pointer becomes stale, leading to a heap use-after-free read. An attacker who can present a crafted block device image (for example, via USB insertion or a loop-mounted disk image) can trigger this flaw without user interaction, as libblkid is invoked automatically by udev/udisks as root on block-device hot-plug events. This could lead to limited information disclosure or denial of service.
A flaw was found in spice-vdagent. A malicious or compromised SPICE host can trigger an integer overflow by sending a specially crafted message. This vulnerability can lead to a heap buffer overflow, causing the spice-vdagent daemon to crash and resulting in a Denial of Service (DoS) for the virtual machine. This issue requires the SPICE host to be untrusted or compromised for exploitation.
A path traversal vulnerability was found in spice-vdagent. In src/vdagent/file-xfers.c, the filename received from the SPICE host in file transfer metadata is used directly in gbuildfilename() without any sanitization (file-xfers.c:138-139, 190). The gbuildfilename() function has documented behavior where if the second argument is an absolute path (starts with '/'), the first argument (savedir) is silently discarded. Additionally, '..' components in relative paths are not stripped, enabling directory traversal.
This allows a malicious SPICE host to write arbitrary files at arbitrary paths on the guest filesystem, with the privileges of the spice-vdagent process (typically the logged-in user).
Note: this is distinct from CVE-2017-15108, which was about unescaped savedir passed to system() (command injection, CWE-78). This finding concerns the file name parameter not being sanitized for path traversal (CWE-22) — different input variable, different vulnerability class. Exploitation requires a malicious or compromised SPICE host.
A 1-byte heap out-of-bounds read vulnerability exists in the gsth264parseprocessnal() function in subprojects/gst-plugins-bad/gst/videoparsers/gsth264parse.c. The function processes H.264 NAL units including GSTH264NALSLICEEXT (NAL type 20) for MVC/SVC extension slices. At line 1132, the code dereferences (nalu->data + nalu->offset + nalu->headerbytes) to check the firstmbinslice flag without first verifying that nalu->size > nalu->headerbytes. For extension slice types, headerbytes is set to 4 (1 byte base + 3 bytes extension header per gsth264parser.c:243). A malformed NAL unit with exactly size==4 passes the minimum size check (size >= 2 at line 999) but triggers a 1-byte read at offset 4, which is beyond the allocated buffer. The same bounds check pattern is correctly implemented in gsth264parsecollectnal() at line 1259 with if (nalu->size > nalu->headerbytes). The vulnerability affects GStreamer 1.x versions (tested against git version 1.29.1.1). Upstream maintainer Sebastian Droege confirmed the vulnerability via GitLab work item 5108. Reported by Dr. Faruk Kazi, Ramesh Adhikari, and Ariba Afroz from CoE-CNDS Lab, VJTI, Mumbai, India. PSIRT Ticket: PSIRTSUPT-17585.

A flaw was found in 389 Directory Server in the aclpnormalizeacltxt() function of aclparse.c. A malformed ACI (Access Control Instruction) string can trigger heap-buffer-overflow writes and reads during ACI parsing. The function fails to validate that the ACI keyword has sufficient length after whitespace stripping, leading to a 1-byte out-of-bounds write and subsequent out-of-bounds reads. An authenticated user with write access to the aci attribute could send a crafted ACI value to silently corrupt heap memory in the directory server process.
A content injection vulnerability was found in the ABRT post-create event handler scripts in libreport. The event script queries the systemd journal for log entries matching the crashed process and writes the results to files in the dump directory without sanitizing embedded control characters. A local user can inject arbitrary content into the journal output by embedding newline characters in syslog messages, controlling the content that root writes to dump directory files.
A flaw was found in 389 Directory Server. The Content Synchronization persistent search plugin allows unbounded memory growth when an authenticated client stops reading sync responses, enabling denial of service. Additional race conditions in plugin thread lifecycle can cause crashes during connection teardown or shutdown.
A flaw was found in 389 Directory Server. The LDIF parser reads past the end of a heap buffer when processing attribute types with trailing semicolons during database import, causing an out-of-bounds read detectable under memory instrumentation.
A flaw was found in 389 Directory Server. The ldaputf8prev() function reads bytes before the start of a buffer without bounds checking, causing a heap buffer over-read in string filter parsing that may influence internal filter processing behavior.
A flaw was found in 389 Directory Server. The SMD5 password storage plugin performs unsigned integer underflow when computing salt length from a crafted password hash shorter than 16 bytes, causing a buffer over-read that crashes the LDAP server during authentication.
A flaw was found in 389 Directory Server. The PBKDF2-SHA256 password storage plugin does not enforce an upper bound on the iteration count extracted from stored password hashes. A privileged attacker who can modify a user's password hash can cause excessive CPU consumption during authentication, resulting in denial of service.
A flaw was found in 389 Directory Server. During schema reload, the attrsyntaxswapht() function unconditionally frees attribute syntax information nodes, bypassing the refcount-based deferred deletion used elsewhere in the attribute syntax subsystem. If an administrator triggers schema reload while concurrent LDAP query traffic is active, worker threads may access freed memory, resulting in use-after-free or double-free and a denial of service (server crash).
A client can trigger a use-after-free read after changing window attributes and forcing the screen saver in CreateSaverWindow(), leading to information disclosure.

A flaw was found in OpenSSH. A malicious SSH server can exploit a double free vulnerability in the Diffie-Hellman Group Exchange (DH-GEX) client path. This occurs during FIPS (Federal Information Processing Standards) mode known-group validation when the client processes attacker-controlled DH-GEX group parameters. Successful exploitation leads to client-side process termination, resulting in a Denial of Service (DoS).
A flaw was found in OpenSSH. A local unprivileged attacker on a Linux client host can hijack client-side X11 forwarding connections. This is possible by pre-binding the preferred abstract X socket name when X11 forwarding is enabled and a local UNIX-domain X socket is used. A successful attack can compromise the confidentiality of forwarded X11 traffic, including sensitive window contents and input, and may allow some manipulation of the forwarded session.
A flaw was found in libsolv. This heap buffer overflow vulnerability occurs when a victim processes a specially crafted .solv file containing negative size values in the repoaddsolv function. This leads to an undersized memory allocation and a subsequent out-of-bounds write. An attacker could exploit this to cause a denial of service (DoS).
A flaw was found in libsolv. This stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability occurs in libsolv's Debian metadata parser when processing specially crafted Debian repository metadata. An attacker could exploit this by providing malicious SHA384 or SHA512 checksum tags, leading to memory corruption and a denial of service (DoS) in the affected system.
A flaw was found in nano. A local user could exploit a format string vulnerability in the statusline() function. By creating a directory with a name containing printf specifiers, the application attempts to display this name, leading to a segmentation fault (SEGV). This results in a Denial of Service (DoS) for the nano application.
A flaw was found in the readelf utility of the binutils package. A local attacker could exploit two Denial of Service (DoS) vulnerabilities by providing a specially crafted Executable and Linkable Format (ELF) file. One vulnerability, a resource exhaustion (CWE-400), can lead to an out-of-memory condition. The other, a null pointer dereference (CWE-476), can cause a segmentation fault. Both issues can result in the readelf utility becoming unresponsive or crashing, leading to a denial of service.
A flaw was found in binutils, specifically within the readelf utility. This vulnerability allows a local attacker to cause a Denial of Service (DoS) by tricking a user into processing a specially crafted Executable and Linkable Format (ELF) file. The exploitation of this flaw can lead to the system becoming unresponsive due to excessive resource consumption or a program crash.
