v8n is a javascript validation library. Versions of v8n prior to 1.5.1 were found to have an inefficient regular expression complexity in the `lowercase()` and `uppercase()` regex which could lead to a denial of service attack. In testing of the `lowercase()` function a payload of 'a' + 'a'.repeat(i) + 'A' with 32 leading characters took 29443 ms to execute. The same issue happens with uppercase(). Users are advised to upgrade. There are no known workarounds for this issue.

Ubuntu Security Notice 5544-1 - It was discovered that the Atheros ath9k wireless device driver in the Linux kernel did not properly handle some error conditions, leading to a use-after-free vulnerability. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code. Felix Fu discovered that the Sun RPC implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly handle socket states, leading to a use-after-free vulnerability. A remote attacker could possibly use this to cause a denial of service or execute arbitrary code.

Gentoo Linux Security Advisory 202207-1 - Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in HashiCorp Vault, the worst of which could result in denial of service. Versions less than 1.10.3 are affected.

Ubuntu Security Notice 5543-1 - Yu Zhang and Nanyu Zhong discovered that Net-SNMP incorrectly handled memory operations when processing certain requests. A remote attacker could use this issue to cause Net-SNMP to crash, resulting in a denial of service, or possibly execute arbitrary code.

[node-fetch](https://www.npmjs.com/package/node-fetch) is a light-weight module that brings window.fetch to node.js. Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Regular Expression Denial of Service (ReDoS) in the `isOriginPotentiallyTrustworthy()` function in `referrer.js`, when processing a URL string with alternating letters and periods, such as `'http://' + 'a.a.'.repeat(i) + 'a'`.

PyroCMS v3.9 was discovered to contain multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities.

The foldername parameter in Bolt 5.1.7 was discovered to have incorrect input validation, allowing attackers to perform directory enumeration or cause a Denial of Service (DoS) via a crafted input.

By Carl Hurd.  The TCL LinkHub Mesh Wi-Fi system is a multi-device Wi-Fi system that allows users to expand access to their network over a large physical area. What makes the LInkHub system unique is the lack of a network interface to manage the devices individually or in the mesh. Instead, a phone application is the only method to interact with these devices. This is noteworthy because, in theory, it significantly reduces the common attack surface on most small office/home office (SOHO) routers, as it moves the entire HTTP/S code base from the product. This means, in theory, fewer issues with integration or hacked-together scripts to trigger various functions within the device. One of the issues with this approach though is that its functionality still needs to reside somewhere for the user to manage the device.  However, this setup leaves the LinkHub Mesh Wi-Fi system open to several vulnerabilities, which we are disclosing today. An attacker could exploit these vulnerabilities to ...

Ubuntu Security Notice 5542-1 - It was discovered that Samba did not handle MaxQueryDuration when being used in AD DC configurations, contrary to expectations. This issue only affected Ubuntu 20.04 LTS. Luke Howard discovered that Samba incorrectly handled certain restrictions associated with changing passwords. A remote attacker being requested to change passwords could possibly use this issue to escalate privileges.
