Security Vulnerabilities

Hexo up to v7.0.0 (RC2) was discovered to contain an arbitrary file read vulnerability.
Issue summary: The POLY1305 MAC (message authentication code) implementation
contains a bug that might corrupt the internal state of applications on the
Windows 64 platform when running on newer X86_64 processors supporting the
AVX512-IFMA instructions.
Impact summary: If in an application that uses the OpenSSL library an attacker
can influence whether the POLY1305 MAC algorithm is used, the application
state might be corrupted with various application dependent consequences.
The POLY1305 MAC (message authentication code) implementation in OpenSSL does
not save the contents of non-volatile XMM registers on Windows 64 platform
when calculating the MAC of data larger than 64 bytes. Before returning to
the caller all the XMM registers are set to zero rather than restoring their
previous content. The vulnerable code is used only on newer x86_64 processors
supporting the AVX512-IFMA instructions.
The consequences of this kind of internal application state corruption can
be various - from no consequences, if the calling application does not
depend on the contents of non-volatile XMM registers at all, to the worst
consequences, where the attacker could get complete control of the application
process. However given the contents of the registers are just zeroized so
the attacker cannot put arbitrary values inside, the most likely consequence,
if any, would be an incorrect result of some application dependent
calculations or a crash leading to a denial of service.
The POLY1305 MAC algorithm is most frequently used as part of the
CHACHA20-POLY1305 AEAD (authenticated encryption with associated data)
algorithm. The most common usage of this AEAD cipher is with TLS protocol
versions 1.2 and 1.3 and a malicious client can influence whether this AEAD
cipher is used by the server. This implies that server applications using
OpenSSL can be potentially impacted. However we are currently not aware of
any concrete application that would be affected by this issue therefore we
consider this a Low severity security issue.
As a workaround the AVX512-IFMA instructions support can be disabled at
runtime by setting the environment variable OPENSSL_ia32cap:
OPENSSL_ia32cap=:~0x200000
The FIPS provider is not affected by this issue.
An incorrect permission check in Qualys Container Scanning Connector Plugin 1.6.2.6 and earlier allows attackers with global Item/Configure permission (while lacking Item/Configure permission on any particular job) to enumerate credentials IDs of credentials stored in Jenkins and to connect to an attacker-specified URL using attacker-specified credentials IDs, capturing credentials stored in Jenkins.
Cloud foundry routing release versions prior to 0.278.0 are vulnerable to abuse of HTTP Hop-by-Hop Headers. An unauthenticated attacker can use this vulnerability for headers like B3 or X-B3-SpanID to affect the identification value recorded in the logs in foundations.
Improper access control vulnerability in 'direct' Desktop App for macOS ver 2.6.0 and earlier allows a local attacker to bypass access restriction and to use camrea, microphone, etc. of the device where the product is installed without the user's consent.
Dell Digital Delivery versions prior to 5.0.82.0 contain an Insecure Operation on Windows Junction / Mount Point vulnerability. A local malicious user could potentially exploit this vulnerability to create arbitrary folder leading to permanent Denial of Service (DOS).
Zoo Management System v1.0 was discovered to contain multiple SQL injection vulnerabilities in the Admin sign-in page via the username and password fields.
An issue was discovered in Samsung Exynos Mobile Processor, Automotive Processor, and Modem (Exynos 9820, Exynos 980, Exynos 850, Exynos 1080, Exynos 2100, Exynos 2200, Exynos 1280, Exynos 1380, Exynos 1330, Exynos Modem 5123, Exynos Modem 5300, and Exynos Auto T5123. In the NAS Task, an improperly implemented security check for standard can disallow desired services for a while via consecutive NAS messages.
An issue was discovered in Samsung Exynos Mobile Processor, Automotive Processor, and Modem (Exynos Mobile Processor, Automotive Processor, and Modem - Exynos 9810, Exynos 9610, Exynos 9820, Exynos 980, Exynos 850, Exynos 1080, Exynos 2100, Exynos 2200, Exynos 1280, Exynos 1380, Exynos 1330, Exynos 9110, Exynos W920, Exynos Modem 5123, Exynos Modem 5300, and Exynos Auto T5123). In the Shannon MM Task, Missing validation of a NULL pointer can cause abnormal termination via a malformed NR MM packet.
An issue was discovered in Samsung Exynos Mobile Processor and Wearable Processor (Exynos 980, Exynos 850, Exynos 2100, and Exynos W920). Improper handling of length parameter inconsistency can cause incorrect packet filtering.
