Security Vulnerabilities
- CVEs Published In April 2025
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
can: peak_usb: fix use after free bugs
After calling peak_usb_netif_rx_ni(skb), dereferencing skb is unsafe.
Especially, the can_frame cf which aliases skb memory is accessed
after the peak_usb_netif_rx_ni().
Reordering the lines solves the issue.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
can: etas_es58x: es58x_rx_err_msg(): fix memory leak in error path
In es58x_rx_err_msg(), if can->do_set_mode() fails, the function
directly returns without calling netif_rx(skb). This means that the
skb previously allocated by alloc_can_err_skb() is not freed. In other
terms, this is a memory leak.
This patch simply removes the return statement in the error branch and
let the function continue.
Issue was found with GCC -fanalyzer, please follow the link below for
details.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
can: dev: can_get_echo_skb(): prevent call to kfree_skb() in hard IRQ context
If a driver calls can_get_echo_skb() during a hardware IRQ (which is often, but
not always, the case), the 'WARN_ON(in_irq)' in
net/core/skbuff.c#skb_release_head_state() might be triggered, under network
congestion circumstances, together with the potential risk of a NULL pointer
dereference.
The root cause of this issue is the call to kfree_skb() instead of
dev_kfree_skb_irq() in net/core/dev.c#enqueue_to_backlog().
This patch prevents the skb to be freed within the call to netif_rx() by
incrementing its reference count with skb_get(). The skb is finally freed by
one of the in-irq-context safe functions: dev_consume_skb_any() or
dev_kfree_skb_any(). The "any" version is used because some drivers might call
can_get_echo_skb() in a normal context.
The reason for this issue to occur is that initially, in the core network
stack, loopback skb were not supposed to be received in hardware IRQ context.
The CAN stack is an exeption.
This bug was previously reported back in 2017 in [1] but the proposed patch
never got accepted.
While [1] directly modifies net/core/dev.c, we try to propose here a
smoother modification local to CAN network stack (the assumption
behind is that only CAN devices are affected by this issue).

FOXCMS <= V1.25 is vulnerable to SQL Injection via $param['title'] in /admin/util/Field.php.
Litepubl CMS <= 7.0.9 is vulnerable to RCE in admin/service/run.
A RCE vulnerability in the core application in LandChat 3.25.12.18 allows an unauthenticated attacker to execute system code via remote network access.
IBM i 7.6
contains a privilege escalation vulnerability due to incorrect profile swapping in an OS command. A malicious actor can use the command to elevate privileges to gain root access to the host operating system.
In libxml2 before 2.13.8 and 2.14.x before 2.14.2, xmlSchemaIDCFillNodeTables in xmlschemas.c has a heap-based buffer under-read. To exploit this, a crafted XML document must be validated against an XML schema with certain identity constraints, or a crafted XML schema must be used.
An issue in dlink DIR 832x 240802 allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code via the function 0x41dda8
In FOXCMS <=1.25, the installdb.php file has a time - based blind SQL injection vulnerability. The url_prefix, domain, and my_website POST parameters are directly concatenated into SQL statements without filtering.
