Security Vulnerabilities

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ice: Fix some null pointer dereference issues in ice_ptp.c
devm_kasprintf() returns a pointer to dynamically allocated memory
which can be NULL upon failure.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
crypto: rsa - add a check for allocation failure
Static checkers insist that the mpi_alloc() allocation can fail so add
a check to prevent a NULL dereference. Small allocations like this
can't actually fail in current kernels, but adding a check is very
simple and makes the static checkers happy.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
thermal: core: Fix NULL pointer dereference in zone registration error path
If device_register() in thermal_zone_device_register_with_trips()
returns an error, the tz variable is set to NULL and subsequently
dereferenced in kfree(tz->tzp).
Commit adc8749b150c ("thermal/drivers/core: Use put_device() if
device_register() fails") added the tz = NULL assignment in question to
avoid a possible double-free after dropping the reference to the zone
device. However, after commit 4649620d9404 ("thermal: core: Make
thermal_zone_device_unregister() return after freeing the zone"), that
assignment has become redundant, because dropping the reference to the
zone device does not cause the zone object to be freed any more.
Drop it to address the NULL pointer dereference.
A DLL hijacking vulnerability was identified in the Qognify VMS Client Viewer version 7.1 or higher, which allows local users to execute arbitrary code and obtain higher privileges via careful placement of a malicious DLL, if some specific pre-conditions are met.
In Indo-Sol PROFINET-INspektor NT through 2.4.0, a command injection vulnerability in the gedtupdater service of the firmware allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary system commands with root privileges via a crafted filename parameter in POST requests to the /api/updater/ctrl/start_update endpoint.
In Indo-Sol PROFINET-INspektor NT through 2.4.0, a path traversal vulnerability in the httpuploadd service of the firmware allows remote attackers to write to arbitrary files via a crafted filename parameter in requests to the /upload endpoint.
IBM Cognos Analytics 11.1.7, 11.2.4, and 12.0.0 could be vulnerable to information leakage due to unverified sources in messages sent between Windows objects of different origins. IBM X-Force ID: 254290.
IBM Cognos Analytics 11.1.7, 11.2.4, and 12.0.0 is vulnerable to form action hijacking where it is possible to modify the form action to reference an arbitrary path. IBM X-Force ID: 255898.
IBM Cognos Analytics 11.1.7, 11.2.4, and 12.0.0 is vulnerable to cross-site scripting. This vulnerability allows users to embed arbitrary JavaScript code in the Web UI thus altering the intended functionality potentially leading to credentials disclosure within a trusted session. IBM X-Force ID: 260744.
