CVE-2022-36056: Merge pull request from GHSA-8gw7-4j42-w388 · sigstore/cosign@80b79ed

Cosign is a project under the sigstore organization which aims to make signatures invisible infrastructure. In versions prior to 1.12.0 a number of vulnerabilities have been found in cosign verify-blob, where Cosign would successfully verify an artifact when verification should have failed. First a cosign bundle can be crafted to successfully verify a blob even if the embedded rekorBundle does not reference the given signature. Second, when providing identity flags, the email and issuer of a certificate is not checked when verifying a Rekor bundle, and the GitHub Actions identity is never checked. Third, providing an invalid Rekor bundle without the experimental flag results in a successful verification. And fourth an invalid transparency log entry will result in immediate success for verification. Details and examples of these issues can be seen in the GHSA-8gw7-4j42-w388 advisory linked. Users are advised to upgrade to 1.12.0. There are no known workarounds for these issues.

Microsoft Patch Tuesday for September 2022 — Snort rules and prominent vulnerabilities

By Jon Munshaw and Asheer Malhotra.  Microsoft released its monthly security update Tuesday, disclosing 64 vulnerabilities across the company’s hardware and software line, a sharp decline from the record number of issues Microsoft disclosed last month.  September's security update features five critical vulnerabilities, 10 fewer than were included in last month’s Patch Tuesday. There are two moderate-severity vulnerabilities in this release and a low-security issue that’s already been patched as a part of a recent Google Chromium update. The remainder is considered “important.”  The most serious vulnerability exists in several versions of Windows Server and Windows 10 that could allow an attacker to gain the ability to execute remote code (RCE) by sending a singular, specially crafted IPv6 packet to a Windows node where IPSec is enabled. CVE-2022-34718 only affects instances that have IPSec enabled. This vulnerability has a severity score of 9.8 out of 10 and is considered “more likely...
