Ubuntu Security Notice 7029-1 - Chenyuan Yang discovered that the CEC driver driver in the Linux kernel contained a use-after-free vulnerability. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code. It was discovered that the JFS file system contained an out-of-bounds read vulnerability when printing xattr debug information. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service.
Ubuntu Security Notice 7007-3 - Chenyuan Yang discovered that the CEC driver driver in the Linux kernel contained a use-after-free vulnerability. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code. Chenyuan Yang discovered that the USB Gadget subsystem in the Linux kernel did not properly check for the device to be enabled before writing. A local attacker could possibly use this to cause a denial of service.

Gentoo Linux Security Advisory 202409-14 - Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in Mbed TLS, the worst of which could lead to information disclosure or denial of service. Versions greater than or equal to 2.28.7 are affected.
Gentoo Linux Security Advisory 202409-8 - Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in OpenVPN, the worst of which could lead to information disclosure. Versions greater than or equal to 2.6.7 are affected.
Hold on tight, folks, because last week's cybersecurity landscape was a rollercoaster! We witnessed everything from North Korean hackers dangling "dream jobs" to expose a new malware, to a surprising twist in the Apple vs. NSO Group saga. Even the seemingly mundane world of domain names and cloud configurations had its share of drama. Let's dive into the details and see what lessons we can glean
Red Hat Security Advisory 2024-6883-03 - Red Hat build of Apache Camel 3.20.7 for Spring Boot release and security update is now available. Issues addressed include denial of service, information leakage, and server-side request forgery vulnerabilities.
### Impact Clients could clobber values set by intermediate proxies (such as X-Forwarded-For) by providing a underscore version of the same header (X-Forwarded_For). Any users trusting headers set by their proxy may be affected. Attackers may be able to downgrade connections to HTTP (non-SSL) or redirect responses, which could cause confidentiality leaks if combined with a separate MITM attack. ### Patches v6.4.3/v5.6.9 now discards any headers using underscores if the non-underscore version also exists. Effectively, allowing the proxy defined headers to always win. ### Workarounds Nginx has a [underscores_in_headers](https://nginx.org/en/docs/http/ngx_http_core_module.html#underscores_in_headers) configuration variable to discard these headers at the proxy level. Any users that are implicitly trusting the proxy defined headers for security or availability should immediately cease doing so until upgraded to the fixed versions.
In IT environments, some secrets are managed well and some fly under the radar. Here’s a quick checklist of what kinds of secrets companies typically manage, including one type they should manage: Passwords [x] TLS certificates [x] Accounts [x] SSH keys ??? The secrets listed above are typically secured with privileged access management (PAM) solutions or similar. Yet, most traditional PAM
### Impact There is a vulnerability in Traefik that allows the client to remove the X-Forwarded headers (except the header X-Forwarded-For). ### Patches - https://github.com/traefik/traefik/releases/tag/v2.11.9 - https://github.com/traefik/traefik/releases/tag/v3.1.3 ### Workarounds No workaround. ### For more information If you have any questions or comments about this advisory, please [open an issue](https://github.com/traefik/traefik/issues). <details> <summary>Original Description</summary> ### Summary When a HTTP request is processed by Traefik, certain HTTP headers such as X-Forwarded-Host or X-Forwarded-Port are added by Traefik before the request is routed to the application. For a HTTP client, it should not be possible to remove or modify these headers. Since the application trusts the value of these headers, security implications might arise, if they can be modified. For HTTP/1.1, however, it was found that some of theses custom headers can indeed be removed and in ...
