A buffer overrun can be triggered in X.509 certificate verification, specifically in name constraint checking. Note that this occurs after certificate chain signature verification and requires either a CA to have signed a malicious certificate or for an application to continue certificate verification despite failure to construct a path to a trusted issuer. An attacker can craft a malicious email address in a certificate to overflow an arbitrary number of bytes containing the `.` character (decimal 46) on the stack. This buffer overflow could result in a crash (causing a denial of service). In a TLS client, this can be triggered by connecting to a malicious server. In a TLS server, this can be triggered if the server requests client authentication and a malicious client connects.

The OpenSSL project has rolled out fixes to contain two high-severity flaws in its widely used cryptography library that could result in a denial-of-service (DoS) and remote code execution. The issues, tracked as CVE-2022-3602 and CVE-2022-3786, have been described as buffer overrun vulnerabilities that can be triggered during X.509 certificate verification by supplying a specially-crafted email

open5gs v2.4.11 was discovered to contain a memory leak in the component ngap-handler.c. This vulnerability allows attackers to cause a Denial of Service (DoS) via a crafted UE attachment.

open5gs v2.4.11 was discovered to contain a memory leak in the component src/upf/pfcp-path.c. This vulnerability allows attackers to cause a Denial of Service (DoS) via a crafted PFCP packet.

open5gs v2.4.11 was discovered to contain a memory leak in the component src/smf/pfcp-path.c. This vulnerability allows attackers to cause a Denial of Service (DoS) via a crafted PFCP packet.

Red Hat Security Advisory 2022-7268-01 - An update for openvswitch2.11 is now available for Red Hat OpenStack Platform 13 (Queens). Issues addressed include a denial of service vulnerability.

Gentoo Linux Security Advisory 202210-38 - A vulnerability has been found in Expat which could result in denial of service. Versions less than 2.5.0 are affected.

Xenstore: Guests can get access to Xenstore nodes of deleted domains Access rights of Xenstore nodes are per domid. When a domain is gone, there might be Xenstore nodes left with access rights containing the domid of the removed domain. This is normally no problem, as those access right entries will be corrected when such a node is written later. There is a small time window when a new domain is created, where the access rights of a past domain with the same domid as the new one will be regarded to be still valid, leading to the new domain being able to get access to a node which was meant to be accessible by the removed domain. For this to happen another domain needs to write the node before the newly created domain is being introduced to Xenstore by dom0.

Xenstore: Guests can create orphaned Xenstore nodes By creating multiple nodes inside a transaction resulting in an error, a malicious guest can create orphaned nodes in the Xenstore data base, as the cleanup after the error will not remove all nodes already created. When the transaction is committed after this situation, nodes without a valid parent can be made permanent in the data base.
