Ubuntu Security Notice USN-6322-1

Ubuntu Security Notice 6322-1 - It was discovered that elfutils incorrectly handled certain malformed files. If a user or automated system were tricked into processing a specially crafted file, elfutils could be made to crash or consume resources, resulting in a denial of service. This issue only affected Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. It was discovered that elfutils incorrectly handled bounds checks in certain functions when processing malformed files. If a user or automated system were tricked into processing a specially crafted file, elfutils could be made to crash or consume resources, resulting in a denial of service.

Ubuntu Security Notice USN-6321-1

Ubuntu Security Notice 6321-1 - Daniel Moghimi discovered that some Intel Processors did not properly clear microarchitectural state after speculative execution of various instructions. A local unprivileged user could use this to obtain to sensitive information. Tavis Ormandy discovered that some AMD processors did not properly handle speculative execution of certain vector register instructions. A local attacker could use this to expose sensitive information.

GHSA-hw6r-g8gj-2987: Actions expression injection in `filter-test-configs` (`GHSL-2023-181`)

The `pytorch/pytorch` `filter-test-configs` workflow is vulnerable to an expression injection in Actions, allowing an attacker to potentially leak secrets and alter the repository using the workflow. ### Details The [`filter-test-configs`](https://github.com/pytorch/pytorch/blob/ec26947c586dd323d741da80008403664c533f65/.github/actions/filter-test-configs/action.yml) workflow is using the raw `github.event.workflow_run.head_branch` value inside the `filter` step: ```yaml - name: Select all requested test configurations shell: bash env: GITHUB_TOKEN: ${{ inputs.github-token }} JOB_NAME: ${{ steps.get-job-name.outputs.job-name }} id: filter run: | ... python3 "${GITHUB_ACTION_PATH}/../../scripts/filter_test_configs.py" \ ... --branch "${{ github.event.workflow_run.head_branch }}" ``` In the event of a repository using `filter-test-configs` in a `pull_request_target`-triggered workflow, an attacker could use a malicious branch name to gain command ex...

Ubuntu Security Notice USN-6263-2

Ubuntu Security Notice 6263-2 - USN-6263-1 fixed vulnerabilities in OpenJDK. Unfortunately, that update introduced a regression when opening APK, ZIP or JAR files in OpenJDK 11 and OpenJDK 17. This update fixes the problem. Motoyasu Saburi discovered that OpenJDK incorrectly handled special characters in file name parameters. An attacker could possibly use this issue to insert, edit or obtain sensitive information. This issue only affected OpenJDK 11 and OpenJDK 17.

Ubuntu Security Notice USN-6320-1

Ubuntu Security Notice 6320-1 - Multiple security issues were discovered in Firefox. If a user were tricked into opening a specially crafted website, an attacker could potentially exploit these to cause a denial of service, obtain sensitive information across domains, or execute arbitrary code. Lukas Bernhard discovered that Firefox did not properly manage memory when the "UpdateRegExpStatics" attempted to access "initialStringHeap". An attacker could potentially exploit this issue to cause a denial of service.

Ubuntu Security Notice USN-6319-1

Ubuntu Security Notice 6319-1 - Daniël Trujillo, Johannes Wikner, and Kaveh Razavi discovered that some AMD processors utilising speculative execution and branch prediction may allow unauthorized memory reads via a speculative side-channel attack. A local attacker could use this to expose sensitive information, including kernel memory.

Ubuntu Security Notice USN-6317-1

Ubuntu Security Notice 6317-1 - Daniel Moghimi discovered that some Intel Processors did not properly clear microarchitectural state after speculative execution of various instructions. A local unprivileged user could use this to obtain to sensitive information. Tavis Ormandy discovered that some AMD processors did not properly handle speculative execution of certain vector register instructions. A local attacker could use this to expose sensitive information.

Ubuntu Security Notice USN-6318-1

Ubuntu Security Notice 6318-1 - Daniel Moghimi discovered that some Intel Processors did not properly clear microarchitectural state after speculative execution of various instructions. A local unprivileged user could use this to obtain to sensitive information. Tavis Ormandy discovered that some AMD processors did not properly handle speculative execution of certain vector register instructions. A local attacker could use this to expose sensitive information.

Ubuntu Security Notice USN-6316-1

Ubuntu Security Notice 6316-1 - Daniel Moghimi discovered that some Intel Processors did not properly clear microarchitectural state after speculative execution of various instructions. A local unprivileged user could use this to obtain to sensitive information. Tavis Ormandy discovered that some AMD processors did not properly handle speculative execution of certain vector register instructions. A local attacker could use this to expose sensitive information.

Ubuntu Security Notice USN-6315-1

Ubuntu Security Notice 6315-1 - Daniel Moghimi discovered that some Intel Processors did not properly clear microarchitectural state after speculative execution of various instructions. A local unprivileged user could use this to obtain to sensitive information. Tavis Ormandy discovered that some AMD processors did not properly handle speculative execution of certain vector register instructions. A local attacker could use this to expose sensitive information.
