A flaw was found in python. A stack-based buffer overflow was discovered in the ctypes module provided within Python. Applications that use ctypes without carefully validating the input passed to it may be vulnerable to this flaw, which would allow an attacker to overflow a buffer on the stack and crash the application. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to system availability.
A flaw was found in OpenSSL. The issue in CVE-2022-1292 did not find other places in the crehash script where it possibly passed the file names of certificates being hashed to a command executed through the shell. Some operating systems distribute this script in a manner where it is automatically executed. On these operating systems, this flaw allows an attacker to execute arbitrary commands with the privileges of the script.
A vulnerability was found in lz4, where a potential memory corruption due to an integer overflow bug which caused one of the memmove arguments to become negative. Depending on how the library was compiled this will hit an assert() inside the library and dump core, leaving a 4GB core file, or it wil go into libc and crash inside the memmove() function.

A security vulnerability was found in zlib. The flaw triggered a heap-based buffer in inflate in the inflate.c function via a large gzip header extra field. This flaw is only applicable in the call inflateGetHeader.
GNU glibc is vulnerable to a heap-based buffer overflow, caused by a buffer over-read flaw in the proceednextnode function in posix/regexec.c. By sending a specially-crafted argument using a case-insensitive regular-expression match, a remote attacker could overflow a buffer and execute arbitrary code on the system.
A flaw was found in libwebp in versions before 1.0.1. A use-after-free was found due to a thread being killed too early. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to data confidentiality and integrity as well as system availability.
A flaw was found in libwebp in versions before 1.0.1. A heap-based buffer overflow in function WebPDecodeRGBInto is possible due to an invalid check for buffer size. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to data confidentiality and integrity as well as system availability.
In SQLite through 3.31.1 the ALTER TABLE implementation has a use-after-free as demonstrated by an ORDER BY clause that belongs to a compound SELECT statement.
Certifi 2023.07.22 removes root certificates from "e-Tugra" from the root store. These are in the process of being removed from Mozilla's trust store.
e-Tugra's root certificates are being removed pursuant to an investigation prompted by reporting of security issues in their systems. Conclusions of Mozilla's investigation can be found here.
Impact A memory corruption bug(Heap overflow) in the FreeType font rendering library.

A malicious server could send a specially crafted packet which could result in an unchecked integer overflow. The value would then be used to allocate memory causing a possible memory write out of bounds error.
A flaw was found in libwebp in versions before 1.0.1. An out-of-bounds read was found in function ChunkVerifyAndAssign. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to data confidentiality and to the service availability.

A server could send a specially crafted SSHMSGCHANNELREQUEST packet with an exit status message and no payload. This would result in an out of bounds memory comparison.
An out of bounds read flaw was discovered in libssh2 before 1.8.1 in the libssh2packetrequire and libssh2packetrequirev functions. A remote attacker who compromises a SSH server may be able to cause a Denial of Service or read data in the client memory.
A server could send a specially crafted partial SFTP packet with a zero value for the payload length. This zero value would be used to then allocate memory resulting in a zero byte allocation and possible out of bounds read.
A flaw was found in the SQL plugin shipped with Cyrus SASL. The vulnerability occurs due to failure to properly escape SQL input and leads to an improper input validation vulnerability. This flaw allows an attacker to execute arbitrary SQL commands and the ability to change the passwords for other accounts allowing escalation of privileges.
A flaw was found in libssh2 before 1.8.1 creating a vulnerability on the SSH client side. A server could send a multiple keyboard interactive response messages whose total length are greater than unsigned char max characters. This value is used by the SSH client as an index to copy memory causing in an out of bounds memory write error.
A flaw was found in the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP). There is a discrepancy between the code that handles encapsulated option information in leases transmitted "on the wire" and the code which reads and parses lease information after it has been written to disk storage. This flaw allows an attacker to deliberately cause a situation where dhcpd while running in DHCPv4 or DHCPv6 mode, or the dhclient attempts to read a stored lease that contains option information, to trigger a stack-based buffer overflow in the option parsing code for colon-separated hex digits values. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to data confidentiality and integrity as well as service availability.
ActionKit. An input validation issue was addressed with improved input validation.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ip6tunnel: make sure to pull inner header in ip6tnlrcv()
syzbot found ip6tnlrcv() could access unitiliazed data [1].
Call pskbinetmaypull() to fix this, and initialize ipv6h variable after this call as it can change skb->head.

Accounts. The issue was addressed with improved checks.
A heap-based buffer overflow was found in libxml2 when processing truncated UTF-8 input.
Reference: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/libxml2/-/issues/235
Upstream patch: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/libxml2/-/commit/bf22713507fe1fc3a2c4b525cf0a88c2dc87a3a2
AMD. A buffer overflow issue was addressed with improved memory handling.
A flaw was found in grub2 in versions prior to 2.06. Setparamprefix() in the menu rendering code performs a length calculation on the assumption that expressing a quoted single quote will require 3 characters while it actually requires 4 characters which allows an attacker to corrupt memory by one byte for each quote in the input. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to data confidentiality and integrity as well as system availability.
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 nginx. An off-by-one error while processing DNS responses allows a network attacker to write a dot character out of bounds in a heap allocated buffer which can allow overwriting the least significant byte of next heap chunk metadata likely leading to a remote code execution in certain circumstances. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to data confidentiality and integrity as well as system availability.
A flaw was found in Nettle in versions before 3.7.2, where several Nettle signature verification functions (GOST DSA, EDDSA & ECDSA) result in the Elliptic Curve Cryptography point (ECC) multiply function being called with out-of-range scalers, possibly resulting in incorrect results. This flaw allows an attacker to force an invalid signature, causing an assertion failure or possible validation. The highest threat to this vulnerability is to confidentiality, integrity, as well as system availability.
A flaw was found in libxml2. A call to the xmlGetID function can return a pointer already freed when parsing an XML document with the XMLPARSEDTDVALID option and without the XMLPARSENOENT option, resulting in a use-after-free issue.
