Ubuntu Security Notice 5572-2 - Roger Pau Monné discovered that the Xen virtual block driver in the Linux kernel did not properly initialize memory pages to be used for shared communication with the backend. A local attacker could use this to expose sensitive information. Roger Pau Monné discovered that the Xen paravirtualization frontend in the Linux kernel did not properly initialize memory pages to be used for shared communication with the backend. A local attacker could use this to expose sensitive information.

Ubuntu Security Notice 5586-1 - It was discovered that SDL incorrectly handled memory. An attacker could potentially use this issue to cause a denial of service or other unexpected behavior.

Aaron Adams discovered that the netfilter subsystem in the Linux kernel did not properly handle the removal of stateful expressions in some situations, leading to a use-after-free vulnerability. Ziming Zhang discovered that the netfilter subsystem in the Linux kernel did not properly validate sets with multiple ranged fields. It was discovered that the implementation of POSIX timers in the Linux kernel did not properly clean up timers in some situations. Various other vulnerabilities were also discovered.

The package org.yaml:snakeyaml from 0 and before 1.31 are vulnerable to Denial of Service (DoS) due missing to nested depth limitation for collections.

The package sanitize-html before 2.7.1 are vulnerable to Regular Expression Denial of Service (ReDoS) due to insecure global regular expression replacement logic of HTML comment removal.

Patlite NH-FB v1.46 and below was discovered to contain insufficient firmware validation during the upgrade firmware file upload process. This vulnerability allows authenticated attackers to create and upload their own custom-built firmware and inject malicious code.

Ubuntu Security Notice 5584-1 - It was discovered that Schroot incorrectly handled certain Schroot names. An attacker could possibly use this issue to break schroot's internal state causing a denial of service.

A single-byte, non-arbitrary write/use-after-free flaw was found in dnsmasq. This flaw allows an attacker who sends a crafted packet processed by dnsmasq, potentially causing a denial of service.

A use-after-free flaw was found in fs/ext4/namei.c:dx_insert_block() in the Linux kernel’s filesystem sub-component. This flaw allows a local attacker with a user privilege to cause a denial of service.

A heap-buffer-overflow flaw was found in ImageMagick’s PushShortPixel() function of quantum-private.h file. This vulnerability is triggered when an attacker passes a specially crafted TIFF image file to ImageMagick for conversion, potentially leading to a denial of service.
