Packet Storm

Ubuntu Security Notice 5981-1 - It was discovered that the System V IPC implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly handle large shared memory counts. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service. It was discovered that a use-after-free vulnerability existed in the SGI GRU driver in the Linux kernel. A local attacker could possibly use this to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code.

Ubuntu Security Notice 5982-1 - It was discovered that the KVM VMX implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly handle indirect branch prediction isolation between L1 and L2 VMs. An attacker in a guest VM could use this to expose sensitive information from the host OS or other guest VMs. It was discovered that a use-after-free vulnerability existed in the SGI GRU driver in the Linux kernel. A local attacker could possibly use this to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code.

Ubuntu Security Notice 5980-1 - It was discovered that the System V IPC implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly handle large shared memory counts. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service. It was discovered that the KVM VMX implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly handle indirect branch prediction isolation between L1 and L2 VMs. An attacker in a guest VM could use this to expose sensitive information from the host OS or other guest VMs.

Ubuntu Security Notice 5686-4 - USN-5686-1 fixed several vulnerabilities in Git. This update provides the corresponding fix for CVE-2022-39253 on Ubuntu 16.04 ESM. Cory Snider discovered that Git incorrectly handled certain symbolic links. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause an unexpected behaviour.

Ubuntu Security Notice 5979-1 - It was discovered that the KVM VMX implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly handle indirect branch prediction isolation between L1 and L2 VMs. An attacker in a guest VM could use this to expose sensitive information from the host OS or other guest VMs. It was discovered that a race condition existed in the Xen network backend driver in the Linux kernel when handling dropped packets in certain circumstances. An attacker could use this to cause a denial of service.

Debian Linux Security Advisory 5379-1 - Kim Alvefur discovered that insufficient message sender validation in dino-im, a modern XMPP/Jabber client, may result in manipulation of entries in the personal bookmark store without user interaction via a specially crafted message. Additionally an attacker can take advantage of this flaw to change how group chats are displayed or force a user to join or leave an attacker-selected groupchat.

Ubuntu Security Notice 5978-1 - It was discovered that the network queuing discipline implementation in the Linux kernel contained a use-after-free vulnerability. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code. It was discovered that the KVM VMX implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly handle indirect branch prediction isolation between L1 and L2 VMs. An attacker in a guest VM could use this to expose sensitive information from the host OS or other guest VMs.

Global Socket is a tool for moving data from here to there, securely, fast, and through NAT and firewalls. It uses the Global Socket Relay Network to connect TCP pipes, has end-to-end encryption (using OpenSSL's SRP / RFC-5054), AES-256 and key exchange using 4096-bit Prime, requires no PKI, has Perfect Forward Secrecy, and TOR support.

The SolarWinds Information Service (SWIS) is vulnerable to remote code execution by way of a crafted message received through the AMQP message queue. A malicious user that can authenticate to the AMQP service can publish such a crafted message whose body is a serialized .NET object which can lead to OS command execution as NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM.

Apple Security Advisory 2023-03-27-9 - Studio Display Firmware Update 16.4 addresses a code execution vulnerability.
