A vulnerability was found in libX11. The security flaw occurs because the functions in src/InitExt.c in libX11 do not check that the values provided for the Request, Event, or Error IDs are within the bounds of the arrays that those functions write to, using those IDs as array indexes. They trust that they were called with values provided by an Xserver adhering to the bounds specified in the X11 protocol, as all X servers provided by X.Org do. As the protocol only specifies a single byte for these values, an out-of-bounds value provided by a malicious server (or a malicious proxy-in-the-middle) can only overwrite other portions of the Display structure and not write outside the bounds of the Display structure itself, possibly causing the client to crash with this memory corruption.
Ubuntu Security Notice 6186-1 - Patryk Sondej and Piotr Krysiuk discovered that a race condition existed in the netfilter subsystem of the Linux kernel when processing batch requests, leading to a use-after-free vulnerability. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code. Gwangun Jung discovered that the Quick Fair Queueing scheduler implementation in the Linux kernel contained an out-of-bounds write vulnerability. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code.
Ubuntu Security Notice 6185-1 - It was discovered that the TUN/TAP driver in the Linux kernel did not properly initialize socket data. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service. It was discovered that the Real-Time Scheduling Class implementation in the Linux kernel contained a type confusion vulnerability in some situations. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service.

## Summary The fork of `org.cyberneko.html` used by Nokogiri (Rubygem) raises a `java.lang.OutOfMemoryError` exception when parsing ill-formed HTML markup. ## Severity The maintainers have evaluated this as [**High Severity** 7.5 (CVSS3.1)](https://www.first.org/cvss/calculator/3.1#CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H). ## Mitigation Upgrade to `>= 1.9.22.noko2`. ## Credit This vulnerability was reported by [이형관 (windshock)](https://www.linkedin.com/in/windshock/). ## References [CWE-400](https://cwe.mitre.org/data/definitions/400.html) Uncontrolled Resource Consumption ## Notes The upstream library `org.cyberneko.html` is no longer maintained. Nokogiri uses its own fork of this library located at https://github.com/sparklemotion/nekohtml and this CVE applies only to that fork. Other forks of nekohtml may have a similar vulnerability.
### Summary Decrypting AES-CBC encrypted JWE has Potential Padding Oracle Attack Vulnerability. ### Details On [v2.0.10](https://github.com/lestrrat-go/jwx/releases/tag/v2.0.10), decrypting AES-CBC encrypted JWE may return an error "failed to generate plaintext from decrypted blocks: invalid padding": https://github.com/lestrrat-go/jwx/blob/8840ffd4afc5839f591ff0e9ba9034af52b1643e/jwe/internal/aescbc/aescbc.go#L210-L213 Reporting padding error causes [Padding Oracle Attack](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Padding_oracle_attack) Vulnerability. RFC 7516 JSON Web Encryption (JWE) says that we **MUST NOT** do this. > 11.5. Timing Attacks > To mitigate the attacks described in RFC 3218 [RFC3218], the > recipient MUST NOT distinguish between format, padding, and length > errors of encrypted keys.

Improper Input Validation vulnerability in PHOENIX CONTACT FL/TC MGUARD Family in multiple versions may allow UDP packets to bypass the filter rules and access the solely connected device behind the MGUARD which can be used for flooding attacks.
Oracle Weblogic versions 12.2.1.3.0, 12.2.1.4.0 and 14.1.1.0.0 prior to the Jan 2023 security update are vulnerable to an unauthenticated remote code execution vulnerability due to a post deserialization vulnerability. This Metasploit module exploits this vulnerability to trigger the JNDI connection to a LDAP server you control. The LDAP server will then respond with a remote reference response that points to a HTTP server that you control, where the malicious Java class file will be hosted. Oracle Weblogic will then make an HTTP request to retrieve the malicious Java class file, at which point our HTTP server will serve up the malicious class file and Oracle Weblogic will instantiate an instance of that class, granting us remote code execution as the oracle user.
