The npm registry for the Node.js JavaScript runtime environment is susceptible to what's called a manifest confusion attack that could potentially allow threat actors to conceal malware in project dependencies or perform arbitrary script execution during installation. "A npm package's manifest is published independently from its tarball," Darcy Clarke, a former GitHub and npm engineering manager

Ubuntu Security Notice 6200-1 - It was discovered that ImageMagick incorrectly handled the "-authenticate" option for password-protected PDF files. An attacker could possibly use this issue to inject additional shell commands and perform arbitrary code execution. This issue only affected Ubuntu 20.04 LTS. It was discovered that ImageMagick incorrectly handled certain values when processing PDF files. If a user or automated system using ImageMagick were tricked into opening a specially crafted PDF file, an attacker could exploit this to cause a denial of service.

The threat actors behind the DDoSia attack tool have come up with a new version that incorporates a new mechanism to retrieve the list of targets to be bombarded with junk HTTP requests in an attempt to bring them down. The updated variant, written in Golang, "implements an additional security mechanism to conceal the list of targets, which is transmitted from the [command-and-control] to the

In display, there is a possible out of bounds write due to a missing bounds check. This could lead to local escalation of privilege with System execution privileges needed. User interaction is not needed for exploitation. Patch ID: ALPS07978760; Issue ID: ALPS07363410.

Ubuntu Security Notice 6195-1 - It was discovered that Vim contained an out-of-bounds read vulnerability. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service or execute arbitrary code. It was discovered that Vim did not properly manage memory when freeing allocated memory. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service or execute arbitrary code. It was discovered that Vim contained a heap-based buffer overflow vulnerability. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service or execute arbitrary code.

NVIDIA GPU Display Driver for Linux contains a vulnerability in the kernel mode layer, where an unprivileged user can cause an integer overflow, which may lead to information disclosure and denial of service.

NVIDIA CUDA toolkit for Linux and Windows contains a vulnerability in the nvdisasm binary file, where an attacker may cause a NULL pointer dereference by providing a user with a malformed ELF file. A successful exploit of this vulnerability may lead to a partial denial of service.

NVIDIA DGX A100/A800 contains a vulnerability in SBIOS where an attacker may cause improper input validation by providing configuration information in an unexpected format. A successful exploit of this vulnerability may lead to denial of service, information disclosure, and data tampering.
