A vulnerability has been found in simple-markdown 0.5.1 and classified as problematic. Affected by this vulnerability is an unknown functionality of the file simple-markdown.js. The manipulation leads to inefficient regular expression complexity. The attack can be launched remotely. Upgrading to version 0.5.2 is able to address this issue. The name of the patch is 89797fef9abb4cab2fb76a335968266a92588816. It is recommended to upgrade the affected component. The associated identifier of this vulnerability is VDB-220639.

A potential Time-of-Check to Time-of-Use (TOCTOU) vulnerability has been identified in certain HP PC products using AMI UEFI Firmware (system BIOS) which might allow arbitrary code execution, denial of service, and information disclosure. AMI has released updates to mitigate the potential vulnerability.

IBM Spectrum Scale (5.1.0.0 through 5.1.2.8 and 5.1.3.0 through 5.1.5.1) and IBM Elastic Storage System (6.1.0.0 through 6.1.2.4 and 6.1.3.0 through 6.1.4.1) could allow an authenticated user to cause a denial of service through the GUI using a format string attack. IBM X-Force ID: 239539.

In gnss driver, there is a possible out of bounds write due to a missing bounds check. This could lead to local denial of service in wlan services.

The U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) on Friday added three flaws to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) catalog, citing evidence of active abuse in the wild. Included among the three is CVE-2022-24990, a bug affecting TerraMaster network-attached storage (TNAS) devices that could lead to unauthenticated remote code execution with the highest privileges.

Dell System Update, version 2.0.0 and earlier, contains an Improper Certificate Validation in data parser module. A local attacker with high privileges could potentially exploit this vulnerability, leading to credential theft and/or denial of service.

cacheable-request depends on http-cache-semanttics, which contains an Inefficient Regular Expression Complexity in versions prior to 4.1.1 of that package. cacheable-request has been updated to rely on the fixed version in 10.2.7. ### Summary of http-cache-semantics vulnerability http-cache semantics contains an Inefficient Regular Expression Complexity , leading to Denial of Service. This affects versions of the package http-cache-semantics before 4.1.1. The issue can be exploited via malicious request header values sent to a server, when that server reads the cache policy from the request using this library. ### Details https://github.com/advisories/GHSA-rc47-6667-2j5j

### 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.
