In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sched/core: Disable page allocation in task_tick_mm_cid()
With KASAN and PREEMPT_RT enabled, calling task_work_add() in
task_tick_mm_cid() may cause the following splat.
[ 63.696416] BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at kernel/locking/spinlock_rt.c:48
[ 63.696416] in_atomic(): 1, irqs_disabled(): 1, non_block: 0, pid: 610, name: modprobe
[ 63.696416] preempt_count: 10001, expected: 0
[ 63.696416] RCU nest depth: 1, expected: 1
This problem is caused by the following call trace.
sched_tick() [ acquire rq->__lock ]
-> task_tick_mm_cid()
-> task_work_add()
-> __kasan_record_aux_stack()
-> kasan_save_stack()
-> stack_depot_save_flags()
-> alloc_pages_mpol_noprof()
-> __alloc_pages_noprof()
-> get_page_from_freelist()
-> rmqueue()
-> rmqueue_pcplist()
-> __rmqueue_pcplist()
-> rmqueue_bulk()
-> rt_spin_lock()
The rq lock is a raw_spinlock_t. We can't sleep while holding
it. IOW, we can't call alloc_pages() in stack_depot_save_flags().
The task_tick_mm_cid() function with its task_work_add() call was
introduced by commit 223baf9d17f2 ("sched: Fix performance regression
introduced by mm_cid") in v6.4 kernel.
Fortunately, there is a kasan_record_aux_stack_noalloc() variant that
calls stack_depot_save_flags() while not allowing it to allocate
new pages. To allow task_tick_mm_cid() to use task_work without
page allocation, a new TWAF_NO_ALLOC flag is added to enable calling
kasan_record_aux_stack_noalloc() instead of kasan_record_aux_stack()
if set. The task_tick_mm_cid() function is modified to add this new flag.
The possible downside is the missing stack trace in a KASAN report due
to new page allocation required when task_work_add_noallloc() is called
which should be rare.
A flaw was found in hibernate-validator's 'isValid' method in the org.hibernate.validator.internal.constraintvalidators.hv.SafeHtmlValidator class, which can be bypassed by omitting the tag ending in a less-than character. Browsers may render an invalid html, allowing HTML injection or Cross-Site-Scripting (XSS) attacks.
HCL BigFix Compliance is affected by unvalidated redirects and forwards. The HOST header can be manipulated by an attacker and as a result, it can poison the web cache and provide back to users being served the page.
HCL BigFix Compliance is vulnerable to the generation of error messages containing sensitive information. Detailed error messages can provide enticement information or expose information about its environment, users, or associated data.
HCL BigFix Compliance is affected by a missing secure flag on a cookie. If a secure flag is not set, cookies may be stolen by an attacker using XSS, resulting in unauthorized access or session cookies could be transferred over an unencrypted channel.
Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling vulnerability in Apache Tomcat.
This issue affects Apache Tomcat: from 11.0.0-M1 through 11.0.0-M20, from 10.1.0-M1 through 10.1.24, from 9.0.13 through 9.0.89.
The following versions were EOL at the time the CVE was created but are
known to be affected: 8.5.35 through 8.5.100 and 7.0.92 through 7.0.109. Other EOL versions may also be affected.
Users are recommended to upgrade to version 11.0.0-M21, 10.1.25, or 9.0.90, which fixes the issue.
Apache Tomcat, under certain configurations on any platform, allows an attacker to cause an OutOfMemoryError by abusing the TLS handshake process.
The WP Booking Calendar WordPress plugin before 10.6.3 does not sanitise and escape some of its Widgets settings, which could allow high privilege users such as admin to perform Stored Cross-Site Scripting attacks even when the unfiltered_html capability is disallowed (for example in multisite setup).
A vulnerability classified as critical has been found in Guangzhou Tuchuang Computer Software Development Interlib Library Cluster Automation Management System up to 2.0.1. This affects an unknown part of the file /interlib/admin/SysLib?cmdACT=inputLIBCODE&mod=batchXSL&xsl=editLIBCODE.xsl&libcodes=&ROWID=. The manipulation of the argument sql leads to sql injection. It is possible to initiate the attack remotely. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used. The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure but did not respond in any way.
