Security Vulnerabilities
A buffer overflow in the Control-M/Agent can lead to a local privilege escalation when an attacker has access to the system running the Agent.
This vulnerability impacts the out-of-support Control-M/Agent versions 9.0.18 to 9.0.20 and potentially earlier unsupported versions.

If the Access Control List is enforced by the Control-M/Agent and the C router is in use (default in Out-of-support Control-M/Agent versions 9.0.18 to 9.0.20 and potentially earlier unsupported versions; non-default but configurable using the JAVA_AR setting in newer versions), the verification stops at the first NULL byte encountered in the email address referenced in the client certificate. An attacker could bypass configured ACLs by using a specially crafted certificate.

Out-of-support Control-M/Agent versions 9.0.18 to 9.0.20 (and potentially earlier unsupported versions) that are configured to use the non-default Blowfish cryptography algorithm use a hardcoded key. An attacker with access to network traffic and to this key could decrypt network traffic between the Control-M/Agent and Server.

Certain files with overly permissive permissions were identified in the out-of-support Control-M/Agent versions 9.0.18 to 9.0.20 and potentially earlier unsupported versions as well as in newer versions which were upgraded from an affected version. These files contain keys and passwords relating to SSL files, keystore and policies. An attacker with local access to the system running the Agent can access these files.

An authentication bypass vulnerability exists in the out-of-support Control-M/Agent versions 9.0.18 to 9.0.20 and potentially earlier unsupported versions when using an empty or default kdb keystore or a default PKCS#12 keystore. A remote attacker with access to a signed third-party or demo certificate for client authentication can bypass the need for a certificate signed by the certificate authority of the organization during authentication on the Control-M/Agent.
The Control-M/Agent contains hardcoded certificates which are only trusted as fallback if an empty kdb keystore is used; they are never trusted if a PKCS#12 keystore is used. All of these certificates are now expired.
In addition, the Control-M/Agent default kdb and PKCS#12 keystores contain trusted third-party certificates (external recognized CAs and default self-signed demo certificates) which are trusted for client authentication.

When writing to the function_profile_enabled interface, the notifier was
not unregistered after start_graph_tracing failed, causing a warning the
next time function_profile_enabled was written.
Fixed by adding unregister_pm_notifier in the exception path.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
perf: Avoid undefined behavior from stopping/starting inactive events
Calling pmu->start()/stop() on perf events in PERF_EVENT_STATE_OFF can
leave event->hw.idx at -1. When PMU drivers later attempt to use this
negative index as a shift exponent in bitwise operations, it leads to UBSAN
shift-out-of-bounds reports.
The issue is a logical flaw in how event groups handle throttling when some
members are intentionally disabled. Based on the analysis and the
reproducer provided by Mark Rutland (this issue on both arm64 and x86-64).
The scenario unfolds as follows:
1. A group leader event is configured with a very aggressive sampling
period (e.g., sample_period = 1). This causes frequent interrupts and
triggers the throttling mechanism.
2. A child event in the same group is created in a disabled state
(.disabled = 1). This event remains in PERF_EVENT_STATE_OFF.
Since it hasn't been scheduled onto the PMU, its event->hw.idx remains
initialized at -1.
3. When throttling occurs, perf_event_throttle_group() and later
perf_event_unthrottle_group() iterate through all siblings, including
the disabled child event.
4. perf_event_throttle()/unthrottle() are called on this inactive child
event, which then call event->pmu->start()/stop().
5. The PMU driver receives the event with hw.idx == -1 and attempts to
use it as a shift exponent. e.g., in macros like PMCNTENSET(idx),
leading to the UBSAN report.
The throttling mechanism attempts to start/stop events that are not
actively scheduled on the hardware.
Move the state check into perf_event_throttle()/perf_event_unthrottle() so
that inactive events are skipped entirely. This ensures only active events
with a valid hw.idx are processed, preventing undefined behavior and
silencing UBSAN warnings. The corrected check ensures true before
proceeding with PMU operations.
The problem can be reproduced with the syzkaller reproducer:

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
io_uring/kbuf: fix signedness in this_len calculation
When importing and using buffers, buf->len is considered unsigned.
However, buf->len is converted to signed int when committing. This can
lead to unexpected behavior if the buffer is large enough to be
interpreted as a negative value. Make min_t calculation unsigned.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/msm/dpu: Add a null ptr check for dpu_encoder_needs_modeset
The drm_atomic_get_new_connector_state() can return NULL if the
connector is not part of the atomic state. Add a check to prevent
a NULL pointer dereference.
This follows the same pattern used in dpu_encoder_update_topology()
within the same file, which checks for NULL before using conn_state.
