Ubuntu Security Notice 6035-1 - It was discovered that KAuth incorrectly handled some configuration parameters with specially crafted arbitrary types. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service, or possibly execute arbitrary code.

This python script is a slow brute forcing utility to check passwords against FortiGate appliances. Check the homepage link for more information on how this was used to slowly bypass brute force protections.

Bento4 v1.6.0-639 was discovered to contain an out-of-memory bug in the mp42aac component.

Ubuntu Security Notice 6034-1 - It was discovered that Dnsmasq was sending large DNS messages over UDP, possibly causing transmission failures due to IP fragmentation. This update lowers the default maximum size of DNS messages to improve transmission reliability over UDP.

Ubuntu Security Notice 6033-1 - It was discovered that the Traffic-Control Index implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly perform filter deactivation in some situations. A local attacker could possibly use this to gain elevated privileges. Please note that with the fix for thisCVE, kernel support for the TCINDEX classifier has been removed. William Zhao discovered that the Traffic Control subsystem in the Linux kernel did not properly handle network packet retransmission in certain situations. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service.

Ubuntu Security Notice 6032-1 - Ziming Zhang discovered that the VMware Virtual GPU DRM driver in the Linux kernel contained an out-of-bounds write vulnerability. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service. Gerald Lee discovered that the USB Gadget file system implementation in the Linux kernel contained a race condition, leading to a use-after-free vulnerability in some situations. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code.

Ubuntu Security Notice 6031-1 - It was discovered that the Traffic-Control Index implementation 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 Integrity Measurement Architecture implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly enforce policy in certain conditions. A privileged attacker could use this to bypass Kernel lockdown restrictions.

Ubuntu Security Notice 6028-1 - It was discovered that lixml2 incorrectly handled certain XML files. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a crash or execute arbitrary code. It was discovered that libxml2 incorrectly handled certain XML files. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a crash.

Ubuntu Security Notice 6030-1 - It was discovered that the Traffic-Control Index implementation 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 System V IPC implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly handle large shared memory counts. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service.

Ubuntu Security Notice 6029-1 - It was discovered that the Traffic-Control Index implementation 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 infrared transceiver USB driver did not properly handle USB control messages. A local attacker with physical access could plug in a specially crafted USB device to cause a denial of service.
