CVE-2023-22062: Oracle Critical Patch Update Advisory - July 2023

Vulnerability in the Oracle Hyperion Financial Reporting product of Oracle Hyperion (component: Repository). The supported version that is affected is 11.2.13.0.000. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows low privileged attacker with network access via HTTP to compromise Oracle Hyperion Financial Reporting. While the vulnerability is in Oracle Hyperion Financial Reporting, attacks may significantly impact additional products (scope change). Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized access to critical data or complete access to all Oracle Hyperion Financial Reporting accessible data and unauthorized ability to cause a partial denial of service (partial DOS) of Oracle Hyperion Financial Reporting. CVSS 3.1 Base Score 8.5 (Confidentiality and Availability impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:N/A:L).

CVE-2023-28864: Chef Infra Server Release Notes

Progress Chef Infra Server before 15.7 allows a local attacker to exploit a /var/opt/opscode/local-mode-cache/backup world-readable temporary backup path to access sensitive information, resulting in the disclosure of all indexed node data, because OpenSearch credentials are exposed. (The data typically includes credentials for additional systems.) The attacker must wait for an admin to run the "chef-server-ctl reconfigure" command.

CVE-2023-23694: DSA-2023-071: Dell VxRail Security Update for Multiple Third-Party Component Vulnerabilities – 7.0.450

Dell VxRail versions earlier than 7.0.450, contain(s) an OS command injection vulnerability in VxRail Manager. A local authenticated attacker could potentially exploit this vulnerability, leading to the execution of arbitrary OS commands on the application's underlying OS, with the privileges of the vulnerable application. Exploitation may lead to a system take over by an attacker.

GHSA-6w4m-2xhg-2658: Buffer overflow in sponge queue functions

### Impact The Keccak sponge function interface accepts partial inputs to be absorbed and partial outputs to be squeezed. A buffer can overflow when partial data with some specific sizes are queued, where at least one of them has a length of 2^32 - 200 bytes or more. ### Patches Yes, see commit [fdc6fef0](https://github.com/XKCP/XKCP/commit/fdc6fef075f4e81d6b1bc38364248975e08e340a). ### Workarounds The problem can be avoided by limiting the size of the partial input data (or partial output digest) below 2^32 - 200 bytes. Multiple calls to the queue system can be chained at a higher level to retain the original functionality. Alternatively, one can process the entire input (or produce the entire output) at once, avoiding the queuing functions altogether. ### References See [issue #105](https://github.com/XKCP/XKCP/issues/105) for more details.

CVE-2023-21954: Oracle Critical Patch Update Advisory - April 2023
