Packet Storm

Ubuntu Security Notice 5946-1 - Lai Han discovered that XStream incorrectly handled certain inputs. If a user or an automated system were tricked into opening a specially crafted input file, a remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service. This issue only affected Ubuntu 18.04 LTS and Ubuntu 20.04 LTS. It was discovered that XStream incorrectly handled certain inputs. If a user or an automated system were tricked into opening a specially crafted input file, a remote attacker could possibly use this issue to execute arbitrary code. This issue only affected Ubuntu 18.04 LTS and Ubuntu 20.04 LTS.

Ubuntu Security Notice 5947-1 - Fabien Potencier discovered that Twig was not properly enforcing sandbox policies when dealing with objects automatically cast to strings by PHP. An attacker could possibly use this issue to expose sensitive information. This issue was only fixed in Ubuntu 16.04 ESM and Ubuntu 18.04 ESM. Marlon Starkloff discovered that Twig was not properly enforcing closure constraints in some of its array filtering functions. An attacker could possibly use this issue to execute arbitrary code. This issue was only fixed in Ubuntu 20.04 ESM.

Ubuntu Security Notice 5945-1 - It was discovered that Protocol Buffers did not properly validate field com.google.protobuf.UnknownFieldSet in protobuf-java. An attacker could possibly use this issue to perform a denial of service attack. This issue only affected protobuf Ubuntu 22.04 LTS and Ubuntu 22.10. It was discovered that Protocol Buffers did not properly parse certain symbols. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service or other unspecified impact.

Ubuntu Security Notice 5943-1 - Multiple security issues were discovered in Thunderbird. If a user were tricked into opening a specially crafted website in a browsing context, an attacker could potentially exploit these to cause a denial of service, obtain sensitive information, bypass security restrictions, cross-site tracing, or execute arbitrary code. Johan Carlsson discovered that Thunderbird did not properly implement CSP policy on a header when using iframes. An attacker could potentially exploits this to exfiltrate data.

Debian Linux Security Advisory 5372-1 - Multiple vulnerabilities were discovered in rails, the Ruby based server-side MVC web application framework, which could result in XSS, data disclosure and open redirect.

Ubuntu Security Notice 5941-1 - It was discovered that the Upper Level Protocol subsystem in the Linux kernel did not properly handle sockets entering the LISTEN state in certain protocols, leading to a use-after-free vulnerability. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code. Davide Ornaghi discovered that the netfilter subsystem in the Linux kernel did not properly handle VLAN headers in some situations. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code.

Ubuntu Security Notice 5940-1 - It was discovered that the Upper Level Protocol subsystem in the Linux kernel did not properly handle sockets entering the LISTEN state in certain protocols, leading to 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 NVMe driver in the Linux kernel did not properly handle reset events in some situations. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service.

Fastly suffers from the poor practice of sending a temporary password in plaintext.

Shopify suffers from a cross site scripting vulnerability.

PacketFence is a network access control (NAC) system. It is actively maintained and has been deployed in numerous large-scale institutions. It can be used to effectively secure networks, from small to very large heterogeneous networks. PacketFence provides NAC-oriented features such as registration of new network devices, detection of abnormal network activities including from remote snort sensors, isolation of problematic devices, remediation through a captive portal, and registration-based and scheduled vulnerability scans.
