Security Vulnerabilities
- CVEs Published In May 2024
The Memberpress plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the ‘arglist’ parameter in all versions up to, and including, 1.11.29 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.
The Memberpress plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Blind Server-Side Request Forgery in all versions up to, and including, 1.11.29 via the 'mepr-user-file' shortcode. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to make web requests to arbitrary locations originating from the web application and can be used to query and modify information from internal services.
The SiteOrigin Widgets Bundle plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the plugin's 'siteorigin_widget' shortcode in all versions up to, and including, 1.60.0 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user supplied attributes. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.
The WPB Elementor Addons plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the ‘url’ parameter in all versions up to, and including, 1.0.9 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm, thp: bail out early in collapse_file for writeback page
Currently collapse_file does not explicitly check PG_writeback, instead,
page_has_private and try_to_release_page are used to filter writeback
pages. This does not work for xfs with blocksize equal to or larger
than pagesize, because in such case xfs has no page->private.
This makes collapse_file bail out early for writeback page. Otherwise,
xfs end_page_writeback will panic as follows.

Kernel panic - not syncing: Oops - BUG: Fatal exception in interrupt
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ocfs2: fix race between searching chunks and release journal_head from buffer_head
Encountered a race between ocfs2_test_bg_bit_allocatable() and
jbd2_journal_put_journal_head() resulting in the below vmcore.

When ocfs2_test_bg_bit_allocatable() called bh2jh(bg_bh), the
bg_bh->b_private NULL as jbd2_journal_put_journal_head() raced and
released the jounal head from the buffer head. Needed to take bit lock
for the bit 'BH_JournalHead' to fix this race.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
cfg80211: fix management registrations locking
The management registrations locking was broken, the list was
locked for each wdev, but cfg80211_mgmt_registrations_update()
iterated it without holding all the correct spinlocks, causing
list corruption.
Rather than trying to fix it with fine-grained locking, just
move the lock to the wiphy/rdev (still need the list on each
wdev), we already need to hold the wdev lock to change it, so
there's no contention on the lock in any case. This trivially
fixes the bug since we hold one wdev's lock already, and now
will hold the lock that protects all lists.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usbnet: sanity check for maxpacket
maxpacket of 0 makes no sense and oopses as we need to divide
by it. Give up.
V2: fixed typo in log and stylistic issues
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/tls: Fix flipped sign in tls_err_abort() calls
sk->sk_err appears to expect a positive value, a convention that ktls
doesn't always follow and that leads to memory corruption in other code.
For instance,
[kworker]
tls_encrypt_done(..., err=<negative error from crypto request>)
tls_err_abort(.., err)
sk->sk_err = err;
[task]
splice_from_pipe_feed
...
tls_sw_do_sendpage
if (sk->sk_err) {
ret = -sk->sk_err; // ret is positive
splice_from_pipe_feed (continued)
ret = actor(...) // ret is still positive and interpreted as bytes
// written, resulting in underflow of buf->len and
// sd->len, leading to huge buf->offset and bogus
// addresses computed in later calls to actor()
Fix all tls_err_abort() callers to pass a negative error code
consistently and centralize the error-prone sign flip there, throwing in
a warning to catch future misuse and uninlining the function so it
really does only warn once.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nvmem: Fix shift-out-of-bound (UBSAN) with byte size cells
If a cell has 'nbits' equal to a multiple of BITS_PER_BYTE the logic
*p &= GENMASK((cell->nbits%BITS_PER_BYTE) - 1, 0);
will become undefined behavior because nbits modulo BITS_PER_BYTE is 0, and we
subtract one from that making a large number that is then shifted more than the
number of bits that fit into an unsigned long.
UBSAN reports this problem:
UBSAN: shift-out-of-bounds in drivers/nvmem/core.c:1386:8
shift exponent 64 is too large for 64-bit type 'unsigned long'
