Security Vulnerabilities
Software installed and run as a non-privileged user may conduct improper GPU system calls to force GPU to write to arbitrary physical memory pages.
Under certain circumstances this exploit could be used to corrupt data pages not allocated by the GPU driver but memory pages in use by the kernel and drivers running on the platform altering their behaviour.
This attack can lead the GPU to perform write operations on restricted internal GPU buffers that can lead to a second order affect of corrupted arbitrary physical memory.

An attachment spoofing issue in WhatsApp for Windows prior to v2.3000.1032164386.258709 could have allowed maliciously formatted documents with embedded NUL bytes in the filename to be shown in the application as one type of file but run as an executable when opened. We have not seen evidence of exploitation in the wild.

Incomplete validation of AI rich response messages for Instagram Reels in WhatsApp for iOS v2.25.8.0 to v2.26.15.72 and WhatsApp for Android v2.25.8.0 to v2.26.7.10 could have allowed a user to trigger processing of media content from an arbitrary URL on another user’s device, including triggering OS-controlled custom URL scheme handlers. We have not seen evidence of exploitation in the wild.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: target: file: Use kzalloc_flex for aio_cmd
The target_core_file doesn't initialize the aio_cmd->iocb for the
ki_write_stream. When a write command fd_execute_rw_aio() is executed,
we may get a bogus ki_write_stream value, causing unintended write
failure status when checking iocb->ki_write_stream > max_write_streams
in the block device.
Let's just use kzalloc_flex when allocating the aio_cmd and let
ki_write_stream=0 to fix this issue.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: mana: fix use-after-free in add_adev() error path
If auxiliary_device_add() fails, add_adev() jumps to add_fail and calls
auxiliary_device_uninit(adev).
The auxiliary device has its release callback set to adev_release(),
which frees the containing struct mana_adev. Since adev is embedded in
struct mana_adev, the subsequent fall-through to init_fail and access
to adev->id may result in a use-after-free.
Fix this by saving the allocated auxiliary device id in a local
variable before calling auxiliary_device_add(), and use that saved id
in the cleanup path after auxiliary_device_uninit().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: correctly handle tunneled traffic on IPV6_CSUM GSO fallback
NETIF_F_IPV6_CSUM only advertises support for checksum offload of
packets without IPv6 extension headers. Packets with extension
headers must fall back onto software checksumming. Since TSO
depends on checksum offload, those must revert to GSO.
The below commit introduces that fallback. It always checks
network header length. For tunneled packets, the inner header length
must be checked instead. Extend the check accordingly.
A special case is tunneled packets without inner IP protocol. Such as
RFC 6951 SCTP in UDP. Those are not standard IPv6 followed by
transport header either, so also must revert to the software GSO path.

An issue was discovered in Prosody before 0.12.6 and 1.0.0 through 13.0.0 before 13.0.5, when mod_proxy65 is enabled. Because mod_proxy65 mishandles access control in a paused scenario, relaying of unauthenticated traffic can occur.
