Progress Chef Infra Server before 15.7 allows a local attacker to exploit a /var/opt/opscode/local-mode-cache/backup world-readable temporary backup path to access sensitive information, resulting in the disclosure of all indexed node data, because OpenSearch credentials are exposed. (The data typically includes credentials for additional systems.) The attacker must wait for an admin to run the "chef-server-ctl reconfigure" command.

faust commit ee39a19 was discovered to contain a stack overflow via the component boxppShared::print() at /boxes/ppbox.cpp.

stress-test master commit e4c878 was discovered to contain a FPE vulnerability via the component combine_inner at /pixman-combine-float.c.

Ubuntu Security Notice 6184-2 - USN-6184-1 fixed a vulnerability in CUPS. This update provides the corresponding updates for Ubuntu 16.04 LTS and Ubuntu 18.04 LTS. It was discovered that CUPS incorrectly handled certain memory operations. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause CUPS to crash, resulting in a denial of service, or to possibly obtain sensitive information.

The web interface on the RIGOL MSO5000 digital oscilloscope with firmware 00.01.03.00.03 allows remote attackers to change the admin password via a zero-length pass0 to the webcontrol changepwd.cgi application, i.e., the entered password only needs to match the first zero characters of the saved password.

Ubuntu Security Notice 6230-1 - Alexander Lakhin discovered that PostgreSQL incorrectly handled certain CREATE privileges. An authenticated user could possibly use this issue to execute arbitrary code as the bootstrap supervisor.

Ubuntu Security Notice 6229-1 - It was discovered that LibTIFF was not properly handling variables used to perform memory management operations when processing an image through tiffcrop, which could lead to a heap buffer overflow. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service or execute arbitrary code. It was discovered that LibTIFF was not properly processing numerical values when dealing with little-endian input data, which could lead to the execution of an invalid operation. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service

libjpeg commit db33a6e was discovered to contain a heap buffer overflow via LineBitmapRequester::EncodeRegion at linebitmaprequester.cpp. This vulnerability allows attackers to cause a Denial of Service (DoS) via a crafted file.

libjpeg commit db33a6e was discovered to contain a reachable assertion via BitMapHook::BitMapHook at bitmaphook.cpp. This vulnerability allows attackers to cause a Denial of Service (DoS) via a crafted file.

Ubuntu Security Notice 6228-1 - It was discovered that the XFS file system implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly perform metadata validation when mounting certain images. An attacker could use this to specially craft a file system image that, when mounted, could cause a denial of service. Wei Chen discovered that the InfiniBand RDMA communication manager implementation in the Linux kernel contained an out-of-bounds read vulnerability. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service.
