Ubuntu Security Notice USN-5775-1

Ubuntu Security Notice 5775-1 - It was discovered that Vim uses freed memory in recursive substitution of specially crafted patterns. An attacker could possibly use this to crash Vim and cause denial of service. It was discovered that Vim makes illegal memory calls when patterns start with an illegal byte. An attacker could possibly use this to crash Vim, access or modify memory, or execute arbitrary commands. It was discovered that Vim could be made to crash when parsing invalid line numbers. An attacker could possibly use this to crash Vim and cause denial of service.

Ubuntu Security Notice USN-5774-1

Ubuntu Security Notice 5774-1 - Jann Horn discovered that the Linux kernel did not properly track memory allocations for anonymous VMA mappings in some situations, leading to potential data structure reuse. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code. It was discovered that a race condition existed in the instruction emulator of the Linux kernel on Arm 64-bit systems. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service.

Ubuntu Security Notice USN-5773-1

Ubuntu Security Notice 5773-1 - 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. Jann Horn discovered that the Linux kernel did not properly track memory allocations for anonymous VMA mappings in some situations, leading to potential data structure reuse. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code.

Ubuntu Security Notice USN-5754-2

Ubuntu Security Notice 5754-2 - 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. It was discovered that a memory leak existed in the IPv6 implementation of the Linux kernel. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service.

Ubuntu Security Notice USN-5756-3

Ubuntu Security Notice 5756-3 - Jann Horn discovered that the Linux kernel did not properly track memory allocations for anonymous VMA mappings in some situations, leading to potential data structure reuse. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code. It was discovered that a memory leak existed in the IPv6 implementation of the Linux kernel. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service.

Ubuntu Security Notice USN-5772-1

Ubuntu Security Notice 5772-1 - It was discovered that QEMU incorrectly handled bulk transfers from SPICE clients. A remote attacker could use this issue to cause QEMU to crash, resulting in a denial of service, or possibly execute arbitrary code. This issue only affected Ubuntu 14.04 ESM and Ubuntu 16.04 ESM. It was discovered that QEMU did not properly manage memory when it transfers the USB packets. A malicious guest attacker could use this issue to cause QEMU to crash, resulting in a denial of service, or possibly execute arbitrary code. This issue only affected Ubuntu 18.04 LTS, Ubuntu 20.04 LTS and Ubuntu 22.04 LTS.

Ubuntu Security Notice USN-5767-2

Ubuntu Security Notice 5767-2 - USN-5767-1 fixed a vulnerability in Python. This update provides the corresponding update for Ubuntu 14.04 ESM and Ubuntu 16.04 ESM. It was discovered that Python incorrectly handled certain IDNA inputs. An attacker could possibly use this issue to expose sensitive information denial of service, or cause a crash.

Ubuntu Security Notice USN-5771-1

Ubuntu Security Notice 5771-1 - USN-3557-1 fixed vulnerabilities in Squid. This update introduced a regression which could cause the cache log to be filled with many Vary loop messages. This update fixes the problem. Mathias Fischer discovered that Squid incorrectly handled certain long strings in headers. A malicious remote server could possibly cause Squid to crash, resulting in a denial of service. This issue was only addressed in Ubuntu 16.04 LTS.

GHSA-g5ww-5jh7-63cx: Protobuf Java vulnerable to Uncontrolled Resource Consumption

A parsing issue similar to CVE-2022-3171, but with textformat in protobuf-java core and lite versions prior to 3.21.7, 3.20.3, 3.19.6 and 3.16.3 can lead to a denial of service attack. Inputs containing multiple instances of non-repeated embedded messages with repeated or unknown fields causes objects to be converted back-n-forth between mutable and immutable forms, resulting in potentially long garbage collection pauses. We recommend updating to the versions mentioned above.
