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 sssd. When authenticating with a YubiKey, the SSSD PAM responder can crash due to a use-after-free vulnerability, where a memory pointer is incorrectly handled. A local attacker could exploit this flaw by manipulating smartcard or YubiKey contents, leading to a denial of service that disrupts authentication. This vulnerability also presents a potential for privilege escalation, although it is difficult to exploit.
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 SSSD. When configured with the LDAP access provider and ldapaccessorder including ppolicy or lockout, a fail-open condition in the LDAP ppolicy access check can occur if a user lookup returns zero results. This can incorrectly return success and cache an allow decision, permitting continued authorization for a deleted or deprovisioned user. A remote attacker with prior valid account context could exploit this to maintain access to information and potentially make limited modifications to resources that should no longer be available.
A flaw was found in sssd. A local unprivileged user could send a specially crafted request with a zero-length body to the Network Security Services (NSS) responder. This could lead to a denial-of-service condition, causing the NSS responder to become unstable or terminate. This vulnerability affects the availability of the system responder.
A flaw was found in SSSD (System Security Services Daemon). When Identity Provider (IdP) authentication is enabled, pre-authentication requests retain state in memory without being cleared or timed out. A local attacker can repeatedly initiate authentication flows without completing them, causing unbounded memory consumption. This memory exhaustion can lead to a Denial of Service (DoS) by degrading or terminating SSSD authentication services.
A flaw was found in SSSD. A local user can trigger a Denial of Service (DoS) by exploiting a race condition in the autofs responder between asynchronous enumeration completion and map invalidation. By repeatedly sending concurrent map enumeration and invalidation requests, an attacker can cause memory to leak, leading to excessive memory consumption that can disrupt or crash the autofs service.
A flaw was found in SSSD. When configured to use Microsoft Entra ID, search inputs are not properly sanitized before being incorporated into directory query filters. A local user can exploit this vulnerability by submitting a crafted lookup request, manipulating the query logic to cause unauthorized information disclosure from the directory.
A flaw was found in the System Security Services Daemon (SSSD). The pampasskeychildreaddata() function within the PAM passkey responder fails to properly handle raw bytes received from a pipe. Because the data is treated as a NUL-terminated C string without explicit termination, it results in an out-of-bounds read when processed by functions like snprintf(). A local attacker could potentially trigger this vulnerability by initiating a crafted passkey authentication request, causing the SSSD PAM responder to crash, resulting in a local Denial of Service (DoS).
A flaw was found in libinput. An attacker capable of deploying a Lua plugin file in specific system directories can exploit a dangling pointer vulnerability. This occurs when a garbage collection cleanup function is called, leaving a pointer that can then be printed to system logs. This could potentially expose sensitive data if the memory location is re-used, leading to information disclosure. For this exploit to work, Lua plugins must be enabled in libinput and loaded by the compositor.
A unique key should be generated for a user's QR login key and their auto-login key, so the same key cannot be used interchangeably between the two.
Insufficient escaping of calendar event titles resulted in a stored XSS risk in the event deletion prompt.
Insufficient capability checks meant it was possible for users to gain access to BigBlueButton join URLs they did not have permission to access.
PHP is vulnerable to the Marvin Attack

When NGINX Plus or NGINX OSS are configured to use the HTTP/3 QUIC module, undisclosed HTTP/3 requests can cause NGINX worker processes to terminate.
When NGINX Plus or NGINX OSS are configured to use the HTTP/3 QUIC module and the network infrastructure supports a Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU) of 4096 or greater without fragmentation, undisclosed QUIC packets can cause NGINX worker processes to leak previously freed memory.
When NGINX Plus or NGINX OSS are configured to use the HTTP/3 QUIC module, undisclosed HTTP/3 requests can cause NGINX worker processes to terminate or cause other potential impact. This attack requires that a request be specifically timed during the connection draining process, which the attacker has no visibility and limited influence over.
When NGINX Plus or NGINX OSS are configured to use the HTTP/3 QUIC module, undisclosed HTTP/3 encoder instructions can cause NGINX worker processes to terminate or cause or other potential impact.

Unchecked script execution in Graphic on-click binding in affected LibreOffice versions allows an attacker to create a document which without prompt will execute scripts built-into LibreOffice on clicking a graphic. Such scripts were previously deemed trusted but are now deemed untrusted.
Cacti provides an operational monitoring and fault management framework. Prior to version 1.2.27, some of the data stored in automationtreerulesformsave() function in automationtreerules.php is not thoroughly checked and is used to concatenate the HTML statement in formconfirm() function from lib/html.php , finally resulting in cross-site scripting. Version 1.2.27 contains a patch for the issue.

Cacti provides an operational monitoring and fault management framework. Versions of Cacti prior to 1.2.27 contain a residual cross-site scripting vulnerability caused by an incomplete fix for CVE-2023-50250. raisemessagejavascript from lib/functions.php now uses purify.js to fix CVE-2023-50250 (among others). However, it still generates the code out of unescaped PHP variables $title and $header. If those variables contain single quotes, they can be used to inject JavaScript code. An attacker exploiting this vulnerability could execute actions on behalf of other users. This ability to impersonate users could lead to unauthorized changes to settings. Version 1.2.27 fixes this issue.

The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2024-27399 to this issue.
Upstream advisory: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-cve-announce/2024051300-CVE-2024-27399-afa8@gregkh/T
An issue was discovered in GNOME GLib before 2.78.5, and 2.79.x and 2.80.x before 2.80.1. When a GDBus-based client subscribes to signals from a trusted system service such as NetworkManager on a shared computer, other users of the same computer can send spoofed D-Bus signals that the GDBus-based client will wrongly interpret as having been sent by the trusted system service. This could lead to the GDBus-based client behaving incorrectly, with an application-dependent impact.
Jinja is an extensible templating engine. The xmlattr filter in affected versions of Jinja accepts keys containing non-attribute characters. XML/HTML attributes cannot contain spaces, /, >, or =, as each would then be interpreted as starting a separate attribute. If an application accepts keys (as opposed to only values) as user input, and renders these in pages that other users see as well, an attacker could use this to inject other attributes and perform XSS. The fix for CVE-2024-22195 only addressed spaces but not other characters. Accepting keys as user input is now explicitly considered an unintended use case of the xmlattr filter, and code that does so without otherwise validating the input should be flagged as insecure, regardless of Jinja version. Accepting values as user input continues to be safe. This vulnerability is fixed in 3.1.4.
An issue was discovered in the UnlinkedWikibase extension in MediaWiki before 1.39.6, 1.40.x before 1.40.2, and 1.41.x before 1.41.1. XSS can occur through an interface message. Error messages (in the $err var) are not escaped before being passed to Html::rawElement() in the getError() function in the Hooks class.
