Ubuntu Security Notice 6757-2 - USN-6757-1 fixed vulnerabilities in PHP. Unfortunately these fixes were incomplete for Ubuntu 20.04 LTS, Ubuntu 22.04 LTS, and Ubuntu 23.10. This update fixes the problem. It was discovered that PHP incorrectly handled PHP_CLI_SERVER_WORKERS variable. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a crash or execute arbitrary code. This issue only affected Ubuntu 20.04 LTS, and Ubuntu 22.04 LTS.
Ubuntu Security Notice 6762-1 - It was discovered that GNU C Library incorrectly handled netgroup requests. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a crash or execute arbitrary code. This issue only affected Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. It was discovered that GNU C Library might allow context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service. This issue only affected Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. It was discovered that GNU C Library when processing very long pathname arguments to the realpath function, could encounter an integer overflow on 32-bit architectures, leading to a stack-based buffer overflow and, potentially, arbitrary code execution. This issue only affected Ubuntu 14.04 LTS.
Ubuntu Security Notice 6747-2 - USN-6747-1 fixed vulnerabilities in Firefox. The update introduced several minor regressions. This update fixes the problem. 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. Bartek Nowotarski discovered that Firefox did not properly limit HTTP/2 CONTINUATION frames. An attacker could potentially exploit this issue to cause a denial of service. Gary Kwong discovered that Firefox did not properly manage memory when running garbage collection during realm initialization. An attacker could potentially exploit this issue to cause a denial of service, or execute arbitrary code. Lukas Bernhard discovered that Firefox did not properly manage memory during JIT optimizations, leading to an out-of-bounds read vulnerability. An attacker could possibly use...
Ubuntu Security Notice 6760-1 - George-Andrei Iosif and David Fernandez Gonzalez discovered that Gerbv did not properly initialize a data structure when parsing certain nested RS-274X format files. If a user were tricked into opening a specially crafted file, an attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service.
Lonial Con discovered that the netfilter subsystem in the Linux kernel contained a memory leak when handling certain element flush operations. A local attacker could use this to expose sensitive information (kernel memory). Xingyuan Mo discovered that the netfilter subsystem in the Linux kernel did not properly handle inactive elements in its PIPAPO data structure, 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 6758-1 - It was discovered that the JSON5 parse method incorrectly handled the parsing of keys named __proto__. An attacker could possibly use this issue to pollute the prototype of the returned object, setting arbitrary or unexpected keys, and cause a denial of service, allow unintended access to network services or have other unspecified impact, depending on the application's use of the module.
Ubuntu Security Notice 6761-1 - It was discovered that Anope did not properly process credentials for suspended accounts. An attacker could possibly use this issue to normally login to the platform as a suspended user after changing their password.
Ubuntu Security Notice 6759-1 - It was discovered that FreeRDP incorrectly handled certain memory operations. If a user were tricked into connecting to a malicious server, a remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause FreeRDP to crash, resulting in a denial of service.
Ubuntu Security Notice 6757-1 - It was discovered that PHP incorrectly handled PHP_CLI_SERVER_WORKERS variable. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a crash or execute arbitrary code. This issue only affected Ubuntu 20.04 LTS, and Ubuntu 22.04 LTS. It was discovered that PHP incorrectly handled certain cookies. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cookie by pass.
Ubuntu Security Notice 6744-3 - USN-6744-1 fixed a vulnerability in Pillow. This update provides the corresponding updates for Ubuntu 24.04 LTS. Hugo van Kemenade discovered that Pillow was not properly performing bounds checks when processing an ICC file, which could lead to a buffer overflow. If a user or automated system were tricked into processing a specially crafted ICC file, an attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service or execute arbitrary code.
