Gentoo Linux Security Advisory 202209-16 - Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in BlueZ, the worst of which could result in arbitrary code execution. Versions less than 5.63 are affected.

Red Hat Security Advisory 2022-6753-01 - The httpd packages provide the Apache HTTP Server, a powerful, efficient, and extensible web server. Issues addressed include buffer overflow, denial of service, information leakage, null pointer, out of bounds read, out of bounds write, and server-side request forgery vulnerabilities.

Red Hat Security Advisory 2022-6755-01 - IBM Java SE version 7 Release 1 includes the IBM Java Runtime Environment and the IBM Java Software Development Kit. This update upgrades IBM Java SE 7 to version 7R1 SR5-FP15.

Red Hat Security Advisory 2022-6756-01 - IBM Java SE version 8 includes the IBM Java Runtime Environment and the IBM Java Software Development Kit. This update upgrades IBM Java SE 8 to version 8 SR7-FP15.

Threat actors have been found deploying never-before-seen post-compromise implants in VMware's virtualization software to seize control of infected systems and evade detection. Google's Mandiant threat intelligence division referred to it as a "novel malware ecosystem" that impacts VMware ESXi, Linux vCenter servers, and Windows virtual machines, allowing attackers to maintain persistent access

Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in Canon Medical Vitrea View 7.x before 7.7.6 allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via (1) the input after the error subdirectory to the /vitrea-view/error/ subdirectory, or the (2) groupID, (3) offset, or (4) limit parameter to an Administrative Panel (Group and Users) page. There is a risk of an attacker retrieving patient information.

Reports to the National Vulnerability Database jumped in 2022, but we should pay just as much attention to the flaws that are not being reported to NVD, including those affecting the software supply chain.

drivers/char/pcmcia/synclink_cs.c in the Linux kernel through 5.19.12 has a race condition and resultant use-after-free if a physically proximate attacker removes a PCMCIA device while calling ioctl, aka a race condition between mgslpc_ioctl and mgslpc_detach.

roccat_report_event in drivers/hid/hid-roccat.c in the Linux kernel through 5.19.12 has a race condition and resultant use-after-free in certain situations where a report is received while copying a report->value is in progress.

drivers/video/fbdev/smscufx.c in the Linux kernel through 5.19.12 has a race condition and resultant use-after-free if a physically proximate attacker removes a USB device while calling open(), aka a race condition between ufx_ops_open and ufx_usb_disconnect.
