An out-of-bounds (OOB) memory access flaw was found in fs/f2fs/node.c in the f2fs module in the Linux kernel in versions before 5.12.0-rc4. A bounds check failure allows a local attacker to gain access to out-of-bounds memory leading to a system crash or a leak of internal kernel information. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to system availability.
Guest triggered use-after-free in Linux xen-netback A malicious or buggy network PV frontend can force Linux netback to disable the interface and terminate the receive kernel thread associated with queue 0 in response to the frontend sending a malformed packet. Such kernel thread termination will lead to a use-after-free in Linux netback when the backend is destroyed, as the kernel thread associated with queue 0 will have already exited and thus the call to kthreadstop will be performed against a stale pointer.
A flaw was found in the way the readObject() method of the MethodType class in the Libraries component of OpenJDK checked argument types. An untrusted Java application or applet could use this flaw to bypass Java sandbox restrictions.
A flaw was found in the boundary checks in the java.nio buffer classes in the Libraries component of OpenJDK, where it is bypassed in certain cases. This flaw allows an untrusted Java application or applet o bypass Java sandbox restrictions.

A flaw was discovered in processing setsockopt IPTSOSETREPLACE (or IP6TSOSETREPLACE) for 32 bit processes on 64 bit systems. This flaw will allow local user to gain privileges or cause a DoS through user name space. This action is usually restricted to root-privileged users but can also be leveraged if the kernel is compiled with CONFIGUSERNS and CONFIGNETNS and the user is granted elevated privileges.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel in versions before 5.12. The value of internal.ndata, in the KVM API, is mapped to an array index, which can be updated by a user process at anytime which could lead to an out-of-bounds write. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to data integrity and system availability.
A flaw was found in the Nosy driver in the Linux kernel in versions prior to v5.12-rc6. It allows a device to be inserted twice into a doubly linked list, leading to use-after-free when one of these devices is removed.

An out-of-bounds (OOB) memory write flaw was found in preallocelemsandfreelist in kernel/bpf/stackmap.c in the bpf iin the Linux kernel. In this flaw, the multiplication to calculate the size could lead to an integer overflow, and this could allow a local attacker, with a special user privilege to gain access to out-of-bounds memory leading to a system crash or a leak of internal kernel information.

An issue was discovered in aspeedlpcctrlmmap in drivers/soc/aspeed/aspeed-lpc-ctrl.c in the Linux kernel before 5.14.6. Local attackers able to access the Aspeed LPC control interface could overwrite memory in the kernel and potentially execute privileges, aka CID-b49a0e69a7b1. This occurs because a certain comparison uses values that are not memory sizes.
A carefully crafted request uri-path can cause modproxyuwsgi to read above the allocated memory and crash (DoS). This issue affects Apache HTTP Server versions 2.4.30 to 2.4.48 (inclusive).

A race condition in Linux kernel SCTP sockets (net/sctp/socket.c) before 5.12-rc8 can lead to kernel privilege escalation from the context of a network service or an unprivileged process. If sctpdestroysock is called without socknet(sk)->sctp.addrwqlock then an element is removed from the autoasconfsplist list without any proper locking. This can be exploited by an attacker with network service privileges to escalate to root or from the context of an unprivileged user directly if a BPFCGROUPINETSOCKCREATE is attached which denies creation of some SCTP socket.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel. An out-of-bounds read was discovered in the libiscsi module that could lead to reading kernel memory or a crash. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to data confidentiality as well as system availability.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel. A heap buffer overflow in the iSCSI subsystem is triggered by setting an iSCSI string attribute to a value larger than one page and then trying to read it. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to data confidentiality and integrity as well as system availability.
A flaw memory corruption in the Linux kernel Voice over IP h323-conntrack-nat module was found. An attacker could use this flaw to corrupt the memory. For reproducing, need to establish connection to the port 1720 that is being used during call setup negotiation. For ipv4 no crash (kernel panic), so for detecting corruption need to use ipv6. The corruption happens for fields of struct nfctext (usually nfctnat is located after nfconnhelp, but possibly nfconnnat and other that located in memory right after nfconnhelp). In most cases the overlapping bytes were zero (if without debug options), so attacker cannot control directly what is being written to the corrupted memory, but at least one numerical value could be modified with tpktlen (so attacker can change TCP/IP packet payload size to control what is being written to some corrupted Int value).

While fuzzing the 2.4.49 httpd, a new null pointer dereference was detected during HTTP/2 request processing, allowing an external source to DoS the server. This requires a specially crafted request. The vulnerability was recently introduced in version 2.4.49. No exploit is known to the project.

An out-of-bounds memory write flaw was found in the Linux kernel's joystick devices subsystem in versions before 5.9-rc1, in the way the user calls ioctl JSIOCSBTNMAP. This flaw allows a local user to crash the system or possibly escalate their privileges on the system. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to confidentiality, integrity, as well as system availability.
A heap-based buffer overflow was found in the way sudo parses command line arguments.
As per the researcher this vulnerability:
- is exploitable by any local user (normal users and system users, sudoers and non-sudoers), without authentication (i.e., the attacker does not need to know the user's password);
- was introduced in July 2011 (commit 8255ed69), and affects all legacy versions from 1.8.2 to 1.8.31p2 and all stable versions from 1.9.0 to 1.9.5p1, in their default configuration.
This could lead to privilege escalation.
arch/mips/net/bpfjit.c in the Linux kernel before 5.4.10 can generate undesirable machine code when transforming unprivileged cBPF programs, allowing execution of arbitrary code within the kernel context. This occurs because conditional branches can exceed the 128 KB limit of the MIPS architecture.
