curl 7.1.1 to and including 7.75.0 is vulnerable to an "Exposure of Private Personal Information to an Unauthorized Actor" by leaking credentials in the HTTP Referer: header. libcurl does not strip off user credentials from the URL when automatically populating the Referer: HTTP request header field in outgoing HTTP requests, and therefore risks leaking sensitive data to the server that is the target of the second HTTP request.
DISPUTED scp in OpenSSH through 8.3p1 allows command injection in the scp.c toremote function, as demonstrated by backtick characters in the destination argument. NOTE: the vendor reportedly has stated that they intentionally omit validation of "anomalous argument transfers" because that could "stand a great chance of breaking existing workflows."
An issue was discovered in disableprivmode in shell.c in GNU Bash through 5.0 patch 11. By default, if Bash is run with its effective UID not equal to its real UID, it will drop privileges by setting its effective UID to its real UID. However, it does so incorrectly. On Linux and other systems that support "saved UID" functionality, the saved UID is not dropped. An attacker with command execution in the shell can use "enable -f" for runtime loading of a new builtin, which can be a shared object that calls setuid() and therefore regains privileges. However, binaries running with an effective UID of 0 are unaffected.
An exploitable code execution vulnerability exists in the quota file functionality of E2fsprogs 1.45.3. A specially crafted ext4 partition can cause an out-of-bounds write on the heap, resulting in code execution. An attacker can corrupt a partition to trigger this vulnerability.
NTP is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by an issue when relying on unauthenticated IPv4 time sources in ntpd. By predicting transmit timestamps for use in spoofed packets, a remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to cause the daemon to crash or system time change.
A vulnerability was found in NTP. A security issue which enables an off-path attacker to prevent ntpd from synchronizing with NTP servers not using authentication. A server mode packet with spoofed source address sent to the client ntpd causes the next transmission to be rescheduled, even if the packet doesn't have a valid origin timestamp. If the packet is sent to the client frequently enough, it will stop polling the server and not be able to synchronize with it.
A malformed query response received by a recursive server in response to a query of RTYPE ANY could trigger an assertion failure while named is attempting to add the RRs in the query response to the cache. While the combination of properties which triggers the assertion should not occur in normal traffic, it is potentially possible for the assertion to be triggered deliberately by an attacker sending a specially-constructed answer having the required properties, after having engineered a scenario whereby an ANY query is sent to the recursive server for the target QNAME. A recursive server will itself only send a query of type ANY if it receives a client query of type ANY for a QNAME for which it has no RRsets at all in cache, otherwise it will respond to the client with the the RRsets that it has available.
This vulnerability occurs during the processing of an answer packet received in response to a query. As a result, recursive servers are at the greatest risk; authoritative servers are at risk only to the extent that they perform a limited set of queries.

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel. Wrong locking in the AFVSOCK socket can cause a local privilege escalation, bypassing SMEP and SMAP. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to data confidentiality and integrity as well as system availability.
A flaw was found in kernel/bpf/verifier.c in BPF in the Linux kernel. An incorrect limit is enforced for pointer arithmetic operations which can be abused to perform out-of-bounds reads and writes in kernel memory, leading to local privilege escalation. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to data confidentiality and integrity as well as system availability.
An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through 5.17.5. iorwinitfile in fs/iouring.c lacks initialization of kiocb->private.
Accelerate Framework. A memory consumption issue was addressed with improved memory handling.
An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through 5.10.1, as used with Xen through 4.14.x. The Linux kernel PV block backend expects the kernel thread handler to reset ring->xenblkd to NULL when stopped. However, the handler may not have time to run if the frontend quickly toggles between the states connect and disconnect. As a consequence, the block backend may re-use a pointer after it was freed. A misbehaving guest can trigger a dom0 crash by continuously connecting / disconnecting a block frontend. Privilege escalation and information leaks cannot be ruled out. This only affects systems with a Linux blkback.
An issue was discovered in splithugepmd in mm/hugememory.c in the Linux kernel before 5.7.5. The copy-on-write implementation can grant unintended write access because of a race condition in a THP mapcount check, aka CID-c444eb564fb1.
An issue was discovered in mm/mmap.c in the Linux kernel before 5.7.11. There is a race condition between certain expand functions (expanddownwards and expandupwards) and page-table free operations from an munmap call, aka CID-246c320a8cfe.
A vulnerability was found in the Linux Kernel where the function sunkbdreinit having been scheduled by sunkbdinterrupt before sunkbd being freed. Though the dangling pointer is set to NULL in sunkbddisconnect, there is still an alias in sunkbdreinit causing Use After Free.
A flaw was found in Linux Kernel because access to the global variable fgconsole is not properly synchronized leading to a use after free in confontop.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel in versions before 5.9-rc7. Traffic between two Geneve endpoints may be unencrypted when IPsec is configured to encrypt traffic for the specific UDP port used by the GENEVE tunnel allowing anyone between the two endpoints to read the traffic unencrypted. The main threat from this vulnerability is to data confidentiality.
An issue was discovered in the Binary File Descriptor (BFD) library (aka libbfd), as distributed in GNU Binutils 2.32. It is a heap-based buffer overflow in bfdarchive64bitslurparmap in archive64.c.
A memory leak in the cryptoreportstat() function in crypto/cryptouserstat.c in the Linux kernel through 5.3.11 allows attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) by triggering cryptoreportstatalg() failures, aka CID-c03b04dcdba1.

curl 7.41.0 through 7.73.0 is vulnerable to an improper check for certificate revocation due to insufficient verification of the OCSP response.
The TLS protocol 1.2 and earlier supports the rsafixeddh, dssfixeddh, rsafixedecdh, and ecdsafixedecdh values for ClientCertificateType but does not directly document the ability to compute the master secret in certain situations with a client secret key and server public key but not a server secret key, which makes it easier for man-in-the-middle attackers to spoof TLS servers by leveraging knowledge of the secret key for an arbitrary installed client X.509 certificate, aka the "Key Compromise Impersonation (KCI)" issue.
An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel before 5.0.19. The XFRM subsystem has a use-after-free, related to an xfrmstatefini panic, aka CID-dbb2483b2a46.
The block subsystem in the Linux kernel before 5.2 has a use-after-free that can lead to arbitrary code execution in the kernel context and privilege escalation, aka CID-c3e2219216c9. This is related to blkmqfreerqs and blkcleanupqueue.
In libssh2 v1.9.0 and earlier versions, the SSHMSGDISCONNECT logic in packet.c has an integer overflow in a bounds check, enabling an attacker to specify an arbitrary (out-of-bounds) offset for a subsequent memory read. A crafted SSH server may be able to disclose sensitive information or cause a denial of service condition on the client system when a user connects to the server.
In the Linux kernel before 5.0.3, a memory leak exits in hsrdevfinalize() in net/hsr/hsrdevice.c if hsraddport fails to add a port, which may cause denial of service, aka CID-6caabe7f197d.
An issue was discovered in getvdevportnodeinfo in arch/sparc/kernel/mdesc.c in the Linux kernel through 5.1.6. There is an unchecked kstrdupconst of nodeinfo->vdevport.name, which might allow an attacker to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash).
The Siemens R3964 line discipline driver in drivers/tty/nr3964.c in the Linux kernel before 5.0.8 has multiple race conditions.
An issue was discovered in kmemcacheallocbulk in mm/slub.c in the Linux kernel before 5.5.11. The slowpath lacks the required TID increment, aka CID-fd4d9c7d0c71.
getgatepage in mm/gup.c in the Linux kernel 5.7.x and 5.8.x before 5.8.7 allows privilege escalation because of incorrect reference counting (caused by gate page mishandling) of the struct page that backs the vsyscall page. The result is a refcount underflow. This can be triggered by any 64-bit process that can use ptrace() or processvmreadv(), aka CID-9fa2dd946743.
