Ubuntu Security Notice 6634-1 - Brennan Conroy discovered that .NET with SignalR did not properly handle malicious clients. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service. Bahaa Naamneh discovered that .NET with OpenSSL support did not properly parse X509 certificates. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service.
Cybersecurity researchers have found that it's possible for threat actors to exploit a well-known utility called command-not-found to recommend their own rogue packages and compromise systems running Ubuntu operating system. "While 'command-not-found' serves as a convenient tool for suggesting installations for uninstalled commands, it can be inadvertently manipulated by attackers through the
Ubuntu Security Notice 6633-1 - Shoham Danino, Anat Bremler-Barr, Yehuda Afek, and Yuval Shavitt discovered that Bind incorrectly handled parsing large DNS messages. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause Bind to consume resources, leading to a denial of service. Elias Heftrig, Haya Schulmann, Niklas Vogel, and Michael Waidner discovered that Bind incorrectly handled validating DNSSEC messages. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause Bind to consume resources, leading to a denial of service.
Ubuntu Security Notice 6632-1 - David Benjamin discovered that OpenSSL incorrectly handled excessively long X9.42 DH keys. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause OpenSSL to consume resources, leading to a denial of service. Bahaa Naamneh discovered that OpenSSL incorrectly handled certain malformed PKCS12 files. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause OpenSSL to crash, resulting in a denial of service.
Ubuntu Security Notice 6631-1 - Several security issues were discovered in the WebKitGTK Web and JavaScript engines. If a user were tricked into viewing a malicious website, a remote attacker could exploit a variety of issues related to web browser security, including cross-site scripting attacks, denial of service attacks, and arbitrary code execution.
Ubuntu Security Notice 6630-1 - It was discovered that Glance_store incorrectly handled logging when the DEBUG log level is enabled. A local attacker could use this issue to obtain access_key values.
Ubuntu Security Notice 6628-1 - Quentin Minster discovered that a race condition existed in the KSMBD implementation in the Linux kernel when handling sessions operations. A remote attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code. Marek Marczykowski-Górecki discovered that the Xen event channel infrastructure implementation in the Linux kernel contained a race condition. An attacker in a guest VM could possibly use this to cause a denial of service.
Ubuntu Security Notice 6625-2 - Marek Marczykowski-Górecki discovered that the Xen event channel infrastructure implementation in the Linux kernel contained a race condition. An attacker in a guest VM could possibly use this to cause a denial of service. Zheng Wang discovered a use-after-free in the Renesas Ethernet AVB driver in the Linux kernel during device removal. A privileged attacker could use this to cause a denial of service.
Ubuntu Security Notice 6627-1 - It was discovered that libde265 could be made to read out of bounds. If a user or automated system were tricked into opening a specially crafted file, an attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service. It was discovered that libde265 did not properly manage memory. If a user or automated system were tricked into opening a specially crafted file, an attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service or execute arbitrary code. This issue only affected Ubuntu 22.04 LTS.
### Summary In `eza`, there exists a potential heap overflow vulnerability, first seen when using Ubuntu for Raspberry Pi series system, on `ubuntu-raspi` kernel, relating to the `.git` directory. ### Details The vulnerability seems to be triggered by the `.git` directory in some projects. This issue may be related to specific files, and the directory structure also plays a role in triggering the vulnerability. Files/folders that may be involved in triggering the vulnerability include `.git/HEAD`, `.git/refs`, and `.git/objects`. As @polly pointed out to me, this is likely caused by [GHSA-j2v7-4f6v-gpg8](https://github.com/libgit2/libgit2/security/advisories/GHSA-j2v7-4f6v-gpg8), which we do seem to use currently. ### PoC For more information check @CuB3y0nd's blogpost [blog](https://www.cubeyond.net/blog/eza-cve-report). ### Impact Arbitrary code execution.
