Red Hat Product Security is pleased to announce that official Red Hat vulnerability data is now available in a new format called the Vulnerability Exploitability eXchange (VEX). In April 2023, we mentioned in an article titled “The future of Red Hat security data”, that Red Hat was working on providing a new security data format. This new format has been created to replace the old OVAL data format, which we aim to deprecate at the end of 2024. Since February 2023, Red Hat has published Red Hat security advisories (RHSAs) in the CSAF format as an official, recommended authoritative sourc

An issue was discovered in drivers/net/ethernet/intel/igb/igb_main.c in the IGB driver in the Linux kernel before 6.5.3. A buffer size may not be adequate for frames larger than the MTU.

An issue was discovered in drivers/usb/storage/ene_ub6250.c for the ENE UB6250 reader driver in the Linux kernel before 6.2.5. An object could potentially extend beyond the end of an allocation.

An issue was discovered in lib/kobject.c in the Linux kernel before 6.2.3. With root access, an attacker can trigger a race condition that results in a fill_kobj_path out-of-bounds write.

IBM QRadar SIEM 7.5.0 uses weaker than expected cryptographic algorithms that could allow an attacker to decrypt highly sensitive information. IBM X-Force ID: 254138

Debian Linux Security Advisory 5522-2 - The patch to address CVE-2023-44487 (Rapid Reset Attack) was incomplete and caused a regression when using asynchronous I/O (the default for NIO and NIO2). DATA frames must be included when calculating the HTTP/2 overhead count to ensure that connections are not prematurely terminated.

Debian Linux Security Advisory 5527-1 - Marcin Noga discovered that a specially crafted web page can abuse a vulnerability in the MediaRecorder API to cause memory corruption and potentially arbitrary code execution. Junsung Lee and Me Li discovered that processing web content may lead to arbitrary code execution. Bill Marczak and Maddie Stone discovered that processing web content may lead to arbitrary code execution. Apple is aware of a report that this issue may have been actively exploited.
