Debian Linux Security Advisory 5727-1 - Multiple security issues have been found in the Mozilla Firefox web browser, which could potentially result in the execution of arbitrary code or privilege escalation.

Microsoft has released patches to address a total of 143 security flaws as part of its monthly security updates, two of which have come under active exploitation in the wild. Five out of the 143 flaws are rated Critical, 136 are rated Important, and four are rated Moderate in severity. The fixes are in addition to 33 vulnerabilities that have been addressed in the Chromium-based Edge browser

Debian Linux Security Advisory 5726-1 - Two vulnerabilities were discovered in the GSS message token handling in krb5, the MIT implementation of Kerberos. An attacker can take advantage of these flaws to bypass integrity protections or cause a denial of service.

Four unpatched security flaws, including three critical ones, have been disclosed in the Gogs open-source, self-hosted Git service that could enable an authenticated attacker to breach susceptible instances, steal or wipe source code, and even plant backdoors. The vulnerabilities, according to SonarSource researchers Thomas Chauchefoin and Paul Gerste, are listed below - CVE-2024-39930 (CVSS

Debian Linux Security Advisory 5725-1 - Johannes Kuhn discovered that messages and channel names are not properly escaped in the modtcl module in ZNC, a IRC bouncer, which could result in remote code execution via specially crafted messages.

308 different models of Sharp Multi-Function Printers (MFP) are vulnerable to 18 different vulnerabilities including remote code execution, local file inclusion, credential disclosure, and more.

Debian Linux Security Advisory 5724-1 - The Qualys Threat Research Unit (TRU) discovered that OpenSSH, an implementation of the SSH protocol suite, is prone to a signal handler race condition. If a client does not authenticate within LoginGraceTime seconds (120 by default), then sshd's SIGALRM handler is called asynchronously and calls various functions that are not async-signal-safe. A remote unauthenticated attacker can take advantage of this flaw to execute arbitrary code with root privileges. This flaw affects sshd in its default configuration.

Qualys has discovered a a signal handler race condition vulnerability in OpenSSH's server, sshd. If a client does not authenticate within LoginGraceTime seconds (120 by default, 600 in old OpenSSH versions), then sshd's SIGALRM handler is called asynchronously, but this signal handler calls various functions that are not async-signal-safe - for example, syslog(). This race condition affects sshd in its default configuration.

Debian Linux Security Advisory 5723-1 - Fabian Vogt discovered that the KDE session management server insufficiently restricted ICE connections from localhost, which could allow a local attacker to execute arbitrary code as another user on next boot.

Debian Linux Security Advisory 5722-1 - It was discovered that multiple integer overflows in libvpx, a multimedia library for the VP8 and VP9 video codecs, may result in denial of service and potentially the execution of arbitrary code.
