CVE-2023-29552: VMware Response to CVE-2023-29552 - Reflective Denial-of-Service (DoS) Amplification Vulnerability in SLP

The Service Location Protocol (SLP, RFC 2608) allows an unauthenticated, remote attacker to register arbitrary services. This could allow the attacker to use spoofed UDP traffic to conduct a denial-of-service attack with a significant amplification factor.

Ubuntu Security Notice USN-6038-1

Ubuntu Security Notice 6038-1 - It was discovered that the Go net/http module incorrectly handled Transfer-Encoding headers in the HTTP/1 client. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to perform an HTTP Request Smuggling attack. It was discovered that Go did not properly manage memory under certain circumstances. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a panic resulting into a denial of service.

Ubuntu Security Notice USN-6040-1

Ubuntu Security Notice 6040-1 - It was discovered that the Traffic-Control Index 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 OverlayFS implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly handle copy up operation in some conditions. A local attacker could possibly use this to gain elevated privileges.

New SLP Vulnerability Could Let Attackers Launch 2200x Powerful DDoS Attacks

Details have emerged about a high-severity security vulnerability impacting Service Location Protocol (SLP) that could be weaponized to launch volumetric denial-of-service attacks against targets. "Attackers exploiting this vulnerability could leverage vulnerable instances to launch massive Denial-of-Service (DoS) amplification attacks with a factor as high as 2200 times, potentially making it

CVE-2022-42335

x86 shadow paging arbitrary pointer dereference In environments where host assisted address translation is necessary but Hardware Assisted Paging (HAP) is unavailable, Xen will run guests in so called shadow mode. Due to too lax a check in one of the hypervisor routines used for shadow page handling it is possible for a guest with a PCI device passed through to cause the hypervisor to access an arbitrary pointer partially under guest control.
