TP-Link TL-WR940N V2/V4/V6, TL-WR841N V8, TL-WR941ND V5, and TL-WR740N V1/V2 were discovered to contain a buffer read out-of-bounds via the component /userRpm/VirtualServerRpm. This vulnerability allows attackers to cause a Denial of Service (DoS) via a crafted GET request.

TP-Link TL-WR940N V4, TL-WR841N V8/V10, TL-WR740N V1/V2, TL-WR940N V2/V3, and TL-WR941ND V5/V6 were discovered to contain a buffer overflow in the component /userRpm/AccessCtrlTimeSchedRpm. This vulnerability allows attackers to cause a Denial of Service (DoS) via a crafted GET request.

An issue in the /userRpm/LocalManageControlRpm component of TP-Link TL-WR940N V2/V4/V6, TL-WR841N V8/V10, and TL-WR941ND V5 allows attackers to cause a Denial of Service (DoS) via a crafted GET request.

libming listswf 0.4.7 was discovered to contain a buffer overflow in the parseSWF_DEFINEFONTINFO() function at parser.c.

Debian Linux Security Advisory 5437-1 - Gregor Kopf of Secfault Security GmbH discovered that HSQLDB, a Java SQL database engine, allowed the execution of spurious scripting commands in .script and .log files. Hsqldb supports a "SCRIPT" keyword which is normally used to record the commands input by the database admin to output such a script. In combination with LibreOffice, an attacker could craft an odb containing a "database/script" file which itself contained a SCRIPT command where the contents of the file could be written to a new file whose location was determined by the attacker.

It was discovered that the OverlayFS implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly handle copy up operation in some conditions. A local attacker could possibly use this to gain elevated privileges. It was discovered that the Broadcom FullMAC USB WiFi driver in the Linux kernel did not properly perform data buffer size validation in some situations. A physically proximate attacker could use this to craft a malicious USB device that when inserted, could cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly expose sensitive information. It was discovered that a race condition existed in the io_uring subsystem in the Linux kernel, leading to a use-after-free vulnerability. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code. Various other issues were also addressed.

Red Hat Security Advisory 2023-3771-01 - The VDSM service is required by a Virtualization Manager to manage the Linux hosts. VDSM manages and monitors the host's storage, memory and networks as well as virtual machine creation, other host administration tasks, statistics gathering, and log collection. Issues addressed include bypass, denial of service, and null pointer vulnerabilities.
