Ubuntu Security Notice 5784-1 - It was discovered that usbredir incorrectly handled memory when serializing large amounts of data in the case of a slow or blocked destination. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause applications using usbredir to crash, resulting in a denial of service, or possibly execute arbitrary code.
The FTP (aka "Implementation of a simple FTP client and server") project through 96c1a35 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) by engaging in client activity, such as establishing and then terminating a connection. This occurs because malloc is used but free is not.
A vulnerability was found in Multilaser RE708 RE1200R4GC-2T2R-V3_v3411b_MUL029B. It has been rated as problematic. This issue affects some unknown processing of the component Telnet Service. The manipulation leads to denial of service. The attack may be initiated remotely. The identifier VDB-217169 was assigned to this vulnerability.
A vulnerability classified as problematic has been found in flar2 ElementalX up to 6.x. Affected is the function xfrm_dump_policy_done of the file net/xfrm/xfrm_user.c of the component ipsec. The manipulation leads to denial of service. Upgrading to version 7.00 is able to address this issue. The name of the patch is 1df72c9f0f61304437f4f1037df03b5fb36d5a79. It is recommended to upgrade the affected component. The identifier of this vulnerability is VDB-217152.
M-Link Archive Server in Isode M-Link R16.2v1 through R17.0 before R17.0v24 allows non-administrative users to access and manipulate archive data via certain HTTP endpoints, aka LINK-2867.
NVIDIA GPU Display Driver for Windows contains a vulnerability where a regular user can cause an out-of-bounds read, which may lead to code execution, denial of service, escalation of privileges, information disclosure, or data tampering.
NVIDIA distributions of Linux contain a vulnerability in nvdla_emu_task_submit, where unvalidated input may allow a local attacker to cause stack-based buffer overflow in kernel code, which may lead to escalation of privileges, compromised integrity and confidentiality, and denial of service.
A vulnerability was found in ghostlander Phoenixcoin. It has been classified as problematic. Affected is the function CTxMemPool::accept of the file src/main.cpp. The manipulation leads to denial of service. Upgrading to version 0.6.6.1-pxc is able to address this issue. The name of the patch is 987dd68f71a7d8276cef3b6c3d578fd4845b5699. It is recommended to upgrade the affected component. The identifier of this vulnerability is VDB-217068.
### Impact The vulnerability may allow a remote attacker to terminate the application with a stack overflow error resulting in a denial of service only by manipulating the processed input stream. ### Patches XStream 1.4.20 handles the stack overflow and raises an InputManipulationException instead. ### Workarounds The only solution is to catch the StackOverflowError in the client code calling XStream. ### References See full information about the nature of the vulnerability and the steps to reproduce it in XStream's documentation for [CVE-2022-40151](https://x-stream.github.io/CVE-2022-40151.html). ### Credits The vulnerability was discovered and reported by Henry Lin of the Google OSS-Fuzz team. ### For more information If you have any questions or comments about this advisory: * Open an issue in [XStream](https://github.com/x-stream/xstream/issues) * Contact us at [XStream Google Group](https://groups.google.com/group/xstream-user)
The effectiveness of attacks largely depends on organizations' distributed denial-of-service defenses.
