tcpreplay v4.4.4 was discovered to contain an infinite loop via the tcprewrite function at get.c.
HuoCMS V3.5.1 and before is vulnerable to file upload, which allows attackers to take control of the target server
HuoCMS V3.5.1 has a File Upload Vulnerability. An attacker can exploit this flaw to bypass whitelist restrictions and craft malicious files with specific suffixes, thereby gaining control of the server.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
module: ensure that kobject_put() is safe for module type kobjects
In 'lookup_or_create_module_kobject()', an internal kobject is created
using 'module_ktype'. So call to 'kobject_put()' on error handling
path causes an attempt to use an uninitialized completion pointer in
'module_kobject_release()'. In this scenario, we just want to release
kobject without an extra synchronization required for a regular module
unloading process, so adding an extra check whether 'complete()' is
actually required makes 'kobject_put()' safe.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: arm64: Fix uninitialized memcache pointer in user_mem_abort()
Commit fce886a60207 ("KVM: arm64: Plumb the pKVM MMU in KVM") made the
initialization of the local memcache variable in user_mem_abort()
conditional, leaving a codepath where it is used uninitialized via
kvm_pgtable_stage2_map().
This can fail on any path that requires a stage-2 allocation
without transition via a permission fault or dirty logging.
Fix this by making sure that memcache is always valid.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: ipset: fix region locking in hash types
Region locking introduced in v5.6-rc4 contained three macros to handle
the region locks: ahash_bucket_start(), ahash_bucket_end() which gave
back the start and end hash bucket values belonging to a given region
lock and ahash_region() which should give back the region lock belonging
to a given hash bucket. The latter was incorrect which can lead to a
race condition between the garbage collector and adding new elements
when a hash type of set is defined with timeouts.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
openvswitch: Fix unsafe attribute parsing in output_userspace()
This patch replaces the manual Netlink attribute iteration in
output_userspace() with nla_for_each_nested(), which ensures that only
well-formed attributes are processed.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fs/erofs/fileio: call erofs_onlinefolio_split() after bio_add_folio()
If bio_add_folio() fails (because it is full),
erofs_fileio_scan_folio() needs to submit the I/O request via
erofs_fileio_rq_submit() and allocate a new I/O request with an empty
`struct bio`. Then it retries the bio_add_folio() call.
However, at this point, erofs_onlinefolio_split() has already been
called which increments `folio->private`; the retry will call
erofs_onlinefolio_split() again, but there will never be a matching
erofs_onlinefolio_end() call. This leaves the folio locked forever
and all waiters will be stuck in folio_wait_bit_common().
This bug has been added by commit ce63cb62d794 ("erofs: support
unencoded inodes for fileio"), but was practically unreachable because
there was room for 256 folios in the `struct bio` - until commit
9f74ae8c9ac9 ("erofs: shorten bvecs[] for file-backed mounts") which
reduced the array capacity to 16 folios.
It was now trivial to trigger the bug by manually invoking readahead
from userspace, e.g.:
posix_fadvise(fd, 0, st.st_size, POSIX_FADV_WILLNEED);
This should be fixed by invoking erofs_onlinefolio_split() only after
bio_add_folio() has succeeded. This is safe: asynchronous completions
invoking erofs_onlinefolio_end() will not unlock the folio because
erofs_fileio_scan_folio() is still holding a reference to be released
by erofs_onlinefolio_end() at the end.
APTIOV contains a vulnerability in BIOS where an attacker may cause an Improper Input Validation locally. Successful exploitation of this vulnerability can potentially impact of integrity.
