Ubuntu Security Notice 6820-2 - It was discovered that the ATA over Ethernet driver in the Linux kernel contained a race condition, leading to a use-after-free vulnerability. An attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code. It was discovered that the Atheros 802.11ac wireless driver did not properly validate certain data structures, leading to a NULL pointer dereference. An attacker could possibly use this to cause a denial of service.

Ubuntu Security Notice 6828-1 - Zheng Wang discovered that the Broadcom FullMAC WLAN driver in the Linux kernel contained a race condition during device removal, leading to a use- after-free vulnerability. A physically proximate attacker could possibly use this to cause a denial of service. It was discovered that the ATA over Ethernet driver in the Linux kernel contained a race condition, leading to a use-after-free vulnerability. An attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code.

Ubuntu Security Notice 6826-1 - Karl von Randow discovered that mod_jk was vulnerable to an authentication bypass. If the configuration did not provide explicit mounts for all possible proxied requests, an attacker could possibly use this vulnerability to bypass security constraints configured in httpd.

Ubuntu Security Notice 6823-1 - Multiple security issues were discovered in MySQL and this update includes new upstream MySQL versions to fix these issues. MySQL has been updated to 8.0.37 in Ubuntu 20.04 LTS, Ubuntu 22.04 LTS, Ubuntu 23.10, and Ubuntu 24.04 LTS. In addition to security fixes, the updated packages contain bug fixes, new features, and possibly incompatible changes.

It was discovered that the ATA over Ethernet (AoE) driver in the Linux kernel contained a race condition, leading to a use-after-free vulnerability. An attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code. It was discovered that a race condition existed in the AppleTalk networking subsystem of the Linux kernel, leading to a use-after-free vulnerability. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code. Various other issues were also addressed.

Ubuntu Security Notice 6822-1 - It was discovered that Node.js incorrectly handled certain inputs when it is using the policy mechanism. If a user or an automated system were tricked into opening a specially crafted input file, a remote attacker could possibly use this issue to bypass the policy mechanism. It was discovered that Node.js incorrectly handled certain inputs when it is using the policy mechanism. If a user or an automated system were tricked into opening a specially crafted input file, a remote attacker could possibly use this issue to perform a privilege escalation.

Ubuntu Security Notice 6817-2 - Ziming Zhang discovered that the DRM driver for VMware Virtual GPU did not properly handle certain error conditions, leading to a NULL pointer dereference. A local attacker could possibly trigger this vulnerability to cause a denial of service. Zheng Wang discovered that the Broadcom FullMAC WLAN driver in the Linux kernel contained a race condition during device removal, leading to a use- after-free vulnerability. A physically proximate attacker could possibly use this to cause a denial of service.

Ubuntu Security Notice 6827-1 - It was discovered that LibTIFF incorrectly handled memory when performing certain cropping operations, leading to a heap buffer overflow. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service.

Ubuntu Security Notice 6825-1 - It was discovered that the PDO driver in ADOdb was incorrectly handling string quotes. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to perform SQL injection attacks. This issue only affected Ubuntu 16.04 LTS. It was discovered that ADOdb was incorrectly handling GET parameters in test.php. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to execute cross-site scripting attacks. This issue only affected Ubuntu 16.04 LTS.
