Cap'n Proto is a data interchange format and capability-based RPC system. In versions 1.0 and 1.0.1, when using the KJ HTTP library with WebSocket compression enabled, a buffer underrun can be caused by a remote peer. The underrun always writes a constant value that is not attacker-controlled, likely resulting in a crash, enabling a remote denial-of-service attack. Most Cap'n Proto and KJ users are unlikely to have this functionality enabled and so unlikely to be affected. Maintainers suspect only the Cloudflare Workers Runtime is affected. If KJ HTTP is used with WebSocket compression enabled, a malicious peer may be able to cause a buffer underrun on a heap-allocated buffer. KJ HTTP is an optional library bundled with Cap'n Proto, but is not directly used by Cap'n Proto. WebSocket compression is disabled by default. It must be enabled via a setting passed to the KJ HTTP library via `HttpClientSettings` or `HttpServerSettings`. The bytes written out-of-bounds are always a specific co...
Ubuntu Security Notice 6492-1 - Kathrin Kleinhammer discovered that Mosquitto incorrectly handled certain inputs. If a user or an automated system were provided with a specially crafted input, a remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service. This issue only affected Ubuntu 20.04 LTS. Zhanxiang Song discovered that Mosquitto incorrectly handled certain inputs. If a user or an automated system were provided with a specially crafted input, a remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause an authorisation bypass. This issue only affected Ubuntu 22.04 LTS and Ubuntu 23.04.
Ubuntu Security Notice 6490-1 - Several security issues were discovered in the WebKitGTK Web and JavaScript engines. If a user were tricked into viewing a malicious website, a remote attacker could exploit a variety of issues related to web browser security, including cross-site scripting attacks, denial of service attacks, and arbitrary code execution.
Ubuntu Security Notice 6488-1 - Florian Picca discovered that strongSwan incorrectly handled certain DH public values. A remote attacker could use this issue to cause strongSwan to crash, resulting in a denial of service, or possibly execute arbitrary code.
Ubuntu Security Notice 6497-1 - Evgeny Vereshchagin discovered that Avahi contained several reachable assertions, which could lead to intentional assertion failures when specially crafted user input was given. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service.
Ubuntu Security Notice 6487-1 - Evgeny Vereshchagin discovered that Avahi contained several reachable assertions, which could lead to intentional assertion failures when specially crafted user input was given. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service.
Sandro Poppi, member of the AXIS OS Bug Bounty Program, has found that the VAPIX API dynamicoverlay.cgi was vulnerable to a Denial-of-Service attack allowing for an attacker to block access to the overlay configuration page in the web interface of the Axis device. This flaw can only be exploited after authenticating with an operator- or administrator-privileged service account however the impact is equal. Axis has released patched AXIS OS versions for the highlighted flaw. Please refer to the Axis security advisory for more information and solution.
The BGP daemon (bgpd) in IP Infusion ZebOS through 7.10.6 allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service by sending crafted BGP update messages containing a malformed attribute.
TestingPlatform is a testing platform for Internet Security Standards. Prior to version 2.1.1, user input is not filtered correctly. Nmap options are accepted. In this particular case, the option to create log files is accepted in addition to a host name (and even without). A log file is created at the location specified. These files are created as root. If the file exists, the existing file is being rendered useless. This can result in denial of service. Version 2.1.1 contains a patch for this issue.
An arbitrary file write vulnerability exists where an authenticated, remote attacker with administrator privileges on the Nessus application could alter Nessus Rules variables to overwrite arbitrary files on the remote host, which could lead to a denial of service condition.
