A denial of service is possible from excessive resource consumption in net/http and mime/multipart. Multipart form parsing with mime/multipart.Reader.ReadForm can consume largely unlimited amounts of memory and disk files. This also affects form parsing in the net/http package with the Request methods FormFile, FormValue, ParseMultipartForm, and PostFormValue. ReadForm takes a maxMemory parameter, and is documented as storing "up to maxMemory bytes +10MB (reserved for non-file parts) in memory". File parts which cannot be stored in memory are stored on disk in temporary files. The unconfigurable 10MB reserved for non-file parts is excessively large and can potentially open a denial of service vector on its own. However, ReadForm did not properly account for all memory consumed by a parsed form, such as map entry overhead, part names, and MIME headers, permitting a maliciously crafted form to consume well over 10MB. In addition, ReadForm contained no limit on the number of disk files cr...
Large handshake records may cause panics in crypto/tls. Both clients and servers may send large TLS handshake records which cause servers and clients, respectively, to panic when attempting to construct responses. This affects all TLS 1.3 clients, TLS 1.2 clients which explicitly enable session resumption (by setting Config.ClientSessionCache to a non-nil value), and TLS 1.3 servers which request client certificates (by setting Config.ClientAuth >= RequestClientCert).
The opportunistic "SCARLETEEL" attack on a firm's Amazon Web Services account turns into targeted data theft after the intruder uses an overpermissioned service to jump into cloud system.
Ubuntu Security Notice 5821-3 - USN-5821-1 fixed a vulnerability in wheel and pip. Unfortunately, it was missing a commit to fix it properly in pip. Sebastian Chnelik discovered that wheel incorrectly handled certain file names when validated against a regex expression. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service.
Osprey Pump Controller version 1.0.1 suffers from a cross site scripting vulnerability.
Ubuntu Security Notice 5899-1 - It was discovered that AWStats did not properly sanitize the content of whois responses in the hostinfo plugin. An attacker could possibly use this issue to conduct cross-site scripting attacks.
Red Hat Security Advisory 2023-0978-01 - Git is a distributed revision control system with a decentralized architecture. As opposed to centralized version control systems with a client-server model, Git ensures that each working copy of a Git repository is an exact copy with complete revision history. This not only allows the user to work on and contribute to projects without the need to have permission to push the changes to their official repositories, but also makes it possible for the user to work with no network connection. Issues addressed include heap overflow and integer overflow vulnerabilities.
Ubuntu Security Notice 5896-1 - It was discovered that Rack was not properly parsing data when processing multipart POST requests. If a user or automated system were tricked into sending a specially crafted multipart POST request to an application using Rack, a remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service. It was discovered that Rack was not properly escaping untrusted data when performing logging operations, which could cause shell escaped sequences to be written to a terminal. If a user or automated system were tricked into sending a specially crafted request to an application using Rack, a remote attacker could possibly use this issue to execute arbitrary code in the machine running the application.
An issue was discovered in Docmosis Tornado prior to version 2.9.5. An authenticated attacker can change the Office directory setting pointing to an arbitrary remote network path. This triggers the execution of the soffice binary under the attackers control leading to arbitrary remote code execution (RCE).
DataEase is an open source data visualization and analysis tool. When saving a dashboard on the DataEase platform saved data can be modified and store malicious code. This vulnerability can lead to the execution of malicious code stored by the attacker on the server side when the user accesses the dashboard. The vulnerability has been fixed in version 1.18.3.
