Security Vulnerabilities
- CVEs Published In November 2024
A vulnerability was found in Codezips Hospital Appointment System 1.0 and classified as critical. Affected by this issue is some unknown functionality of the file /removeDoctorResult.php. The manipulation of the argument Name leads to sql injection. The attack may be launched remotely. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used.
The Easy SVG Support plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via REST API SVG File uploads in all versions up to, and including, 3.7 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Author-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses the SVG file.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ring-buffer: Fix reader locking when changing the sub buffer order
The function ring_buffer_subbuf_order_set() updates each
ring_buffer_per_cpu and installs new sub buffers that match the requested
page order. This operation may be invoked concurrently with readers that
rely on some of the modified data, such as the head bit (RB_PAGE_HEAD), or
the ring_buffer_per_cpu.pages and reader_page pointers. However, no
exclusive access is acquired by ring_buffer_subbuf_order_set(). Modifying
the mentioned data while a reader also operates on them can then result in
incorrect memory access and various crashes.
Fix the problem by taking the reader_lock when updating a specific
ring_buffer_per_cpu in ring_buffer_subbuf_order_set().
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
RDMA/bnxt_re: Fix a bug while setting up Level-2 PBL pages
Avoid memory corruption while setting up Level-2 PBL pages for the non MR
resources when num_pages > 256K.
There will be a single PDE page address (contiguous pages in the case of >
PAGE_SIZE), but, current logic assumes multiple pages, leading to invalid
memory access after 256K PBL entries in the PDE.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
RDMA/bnxt_re: Add a check for memory allocation
__alloc_pbl() can return error when memory allocation fails.
Driver is not checking the status on one of the instances.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
posix-clock: posix-clock: Fix unbalanced locking in pc_clock_settime()
If get_clock_desc() succeeds, it calls fget() for the clockid's fd,
and get the clk->rwsem read lock, so the error path should release
the lock to make the lock balance and fput the clockid's fd to make
the refcount balance and release the fd related resource.
However the below commit left the error path locked behind resulting in
unbalanced locking. Check timespec64_valid_strict() before
get_clock_desc() to fix it, because the "ts" is not changed
after that.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
udf: refactor inode_bmap() to handle error
Refactor inode_bmap() to handle error since udf_next_aext() can return
error now. On situations like ftruncate, udf_extend_file() can now
detect errors and bail out early without resorting to checking for
particular offsets and assuming internal behavior of these functions.
The Registrations for the Events Calendar WordPress plugin before 2.12.4 does not sanitise and escape some parameters when accepting event registrations, which could allow unauthenticated users to perform Cross-Site Scripting attacks.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ext4: don't set SB_RDONLY after filesystem errors
When the filesystem is mounted with errors=remount-ro, we were setting
SB_RDONLY flag to stop all filesystem modifications. We knew this misses
proper locking (sb->s_umount) and does not go through proper filesystem
remount procedure but it has been the way this worked since early ext2
days and it was good enough for catastrophic situation damage
mitigation. Recently, syzbot has found a way (see link) to trigger
warnings in filesystem freezing because the code got confused by
SB_RDONLY changing under its hands. Since these days we set
EXT4_FLAGS_SHUTDOWN on the superblock which is enough to stop all
filesystem modifications, modifying SB_RDONLY shouldn't be needed. So
stop doing that.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
irqchip/gic-v4: Don't allow a VMOVP on a dying VPE
Kunkun Jiang reported that there is a small window of opportunity for
userspace to force a change of affinity for a VPE while the VPE has already
been unmapped, but the corresponding doorbell interrupt still visible in
/proc/irq/.
Plug the race by checking the value of vmapp_count, which tracks whether
the VPE is mapped ot not, and returning an error in this case.
This involves making vmapp_count common to both GICv4.1 and its v4.0
ancestor.
