### Impact Trying to read malformed HAMT sharded directories can cause panics and virtual memory leaks. If you are reading untrusted user input, an attacker can then trigger a panic. This is caused by bogus `fanout` parameter in the HAMT directory nodes. This include checks returned in [ipfs/go-bitfield GHSA-2h6c-j3gf-xp9r](https://github.com/ipfs/go-bitfield/security/advisories/GHSA-2h6c-j3gf-xp9r), as well as limiting the `fanout` to `<= 1024` (to avoid attempts of arbitrary sized allocations). ### Patches - https://github.com/ipfs/go-unixfs/commit/467d139a640ecee4f2e74643dafcc58bb3b54175 ### Workarounds Do not feed untrusted user data to the decoding functions. ### References - https://github.com/ipfs/go-bitfield/security/advisories/GHSA-2h6c-j3gf-xp9r

Dell PowerEdge BIOS contains an Improper SMM communication buffer verification vulnerability. A local malicious user with high Privileges may potentially exploit this vulnerability to perform arbitrary code execution or cause denial of service.

Your fortnightly rundown of AppSec vulnerabilities, new hacking techniques, and other cybersecurity news

Ubuntu Security Notice 5865-1 - It was discovered that an out-of-bounds write vulnerability existed in the Video for Linux 2 implementation in the Linux kernel. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code. Pawan Kumar Gupta, Alyssa Milburn, Amit Peled, Shani Rehana, Nir Shildan and Ariel Sabba discovered that some Intel processors with Enhanced Indirect Branch Restricted Speculation did not properly handle RET instructions after a VM exits. A local attacker could potentially use this to expose sensitive information.

Ubuntu Security Notice 5862-1 - It was discovered that an out-of-bounds write vulnerability existed in the Video for Linux 2 implementation in the Linux kernel. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code. Pawan Kumar Gupta, Alyssa Milburn, Amit Peled, Shani Rehana, Nir Shildan and Ariel Sabba discovered that some Intel processors with Enhanced Indirect Branch Restricted Speculation did not properly handle RET instructions after a VM exits. A local attacker could potentially use this to expose sensitive information.

Ubuntu Security Notice 5861-1 - It was discovered that the NFSD implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly handle some RPC messages, leading to a buffer overflow. A remote attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code. Tamás Koczka discovered that the Bluetooth L2CAP handshake implementation in the Linux kernel contained multiple use-after-free vulnerabilities. A physically proximate attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code.

Ubuntu Security Notice 5860-1 - Kyle Zeng discovered that the sysctl implementation in the Linux kernel contained a stack-based buffer overflow. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or execute arbitrary code. Tamás Koczka discovered that the Bluetooth L2CAP handshake implementation in the Linux kernel contained multiple use-after-free vulnerabilities. A physically proximate attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code.
