Security Vulnerabilities
- CVEs Published In March 2024
Multiple SQL Injection vulnerabilities exist in the reporting application of the Arista Edge Threat Management - Arista NG Firewall (NGFW). A user with advanced report application access rights can exploit the SQL injection, allowing them to execute commands on the underlying operating system with elevated privileges.
Vault and Vault Enterprise (“Vault”) TLS certificate auth method did not correctly validate client certificates when configured with a non-CA certificate as trusted certificate. In this configuration, an attacker may be able to craft a malicious certificate that could be used to bypass authentication. Fixed in Vault 1.15.5 and 1.14.10.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
IB/qib: Fix memory leak in qib_user_sdma_queue_pkts()
The wrong goto label was used for the error case and missed cleanup of the
pkt allocation.
Addresses-Coverity-ID: 1493352 ("Resource leak")
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ice: xsk: return xsk buffers back to pool when cleaning the ring
Currently we only NULL the xdp_buff pointer in the internal SW ring but
we never give it back to the xsk buffer pool. This means that buffers
can be leaked out of the buff pool and never be used again.
Add missing xsk_buff_free() call to the routine that is supposed to
clean the entries that are left in the ring so that these buffers in the
umem can be used by other sockets.
Also, only go through the space that is actually left to be cleaned
instead of a whole ring.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nf_tables: fix use-after-free in nft_set_catchall_destroy()
We need to use list_for_each_entry_safe() iterator
because we can not access @catchall after kfree_rcu() call.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
NFSD: Fix READDIR buffer overflow
If a client sends a READDIR count argument that is too small (say,
zero), then the buffer size calculation in the new init_dirlist
helper functions results in an underflow, allowing the XDR stream
functions to write beyond the actual buffer.
This calculation has always been suspect. NFSD has never sanity-
checked the READDIR count argument, but the old entry encoders
managed the problem correctly.
With the commits below, entry encoding changed, exposing the
underflow to the pointer arithmetic in xdr_reserve_space().
Modern NFS clients attempt to retrieve as much data as possible
for each READDIR request. Also, we have no unit tests that
exercise the behavior of READDIR at the lower bound of @count
values. Thus this case was missed during testing.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/mediatek: hdmi: Perform NULL pointer check for mtk_hdmi_conf
In commit 41ca9caaae0b
("drm/mediatek: hdmi: Add check for CEA modes only") a check
for CEA modes was added to function mtk_hdmi_bridge_mode_valid()
in order to address possible issues on MT8167;
moreover, with commit c91026a938c2
("drm/mediatek: hdmi: Add optional limit on maximal HDMI mode clock")
another similar check was introduced.
Unfortunately though, at the time of writing, MT8173 does not provide
any mtk_hdmi_conf structure and this is crashing the kernel with NULL
pointer upon entering mtk_hdmi_bridge_mode_valid(), which happens as
soon as a HDMI cable gets plugged in.
To fix this regression, add a NULL pointer check for hdmi->conf in the
said function, restoring HDMI functionality and avoiding NULL pointer
kernel panics.
IBM Connect:Express for UNIX 1.5.0 is vulnerable to a buffer overflow that could allow a remote attacker to cause a denial of service through its browser UI. IBM X-Force ID: 254979.
