Updated microcodes for Intel processors, fixing various functional issues, and atleast the following security issues: Incomplete cleanup in some Intel(R) VT-d products may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable escalation of privilege
The irssi packages are updated to irssi 1.2.3 to fix several issues among some security vulnerabilities: * memory handling issues * memory leaks * erroneous free * crashes / freezes
The wpa_supplicant and hostapd packages are updated to fix a forging attacks that may occur because AlgorithmIdentifier parameters are mishandled in tls/pkcs1.c and tls/x509v3.c. (CVE-2021-30004). References: - https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=29046
SchedMD Slurm before 20.02.7 and 20.03.x through 20.11.x before 20.11.7 allows remote code execution as SlurmUser because use of a PrologSlurmctld or EpilogSlurmctld script leads to environment mishandling (CVE-2021-31215). References:
NULL Pointer Deference in the exif command line tool, when printing out XML formatted EXIF data, in exif v0.6.22 and earlier allows attackers to cause a Denial of Service (DoS) by uploading a malicious JPEG file, causing the application to crash. (CVE-2021-27815).
This Rust update to version 1.52.1 includes security fixes for CVE-2020-36323, CVE-2021-28876, CVE-2021-28878, CVE-2021-28879, and CVE-2021-31162. These are memory safety bugs in the Rust standard library. Because it is statically linked, affected applications will need to be rebuilt to benefit from the fixes. The actual security implications will depend on how these APIs
GNU Chess 6.2.7 allows attackers to execute arbitrary code via crafted PGN (Portable Game Notation) data. This is related to a buffer overflow in the use of a .tmp.epd temporary file in the cmd_pgnload and cmd_pgnreplay functions in frontend/cmd.cc. (CVE-2021-30184).
A NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in the way Jasper versions before 2.0.27 handled component references in the JP2 image format decoder. A specially crafted JP2 image file could cause an application using the Jasper library to crash when opened (CVE-2021-3443).
In containerd (an industry-standard container runtime) before versions 1.3.10 and 1.4.4, containers launched through containerd's CRI implementation (through Kubernetes, crictl, or any other pod/container client that uses the containerd CRI service) that share the same image may receive incorrect environment variables, including values that are defined for other
Stack overflow in function DJVU::DjVuDocument::get_djvu_file() via crafted djvu file. (CVE-2021-3500). Out of bounds write in function DJVU::filter_bv() via crafted djvu file. (CVE-2021-32490).
An XSS vulnerability was discovered in python-lxml’s clean module versions before 4.6.3. When disabling the safe_attrs_only and forms arguments, the Cleaner class does not remove the formaction attribute allowing for JS to bypass the sanitizer. A remote attacker could exploit this flaw to run arbitrary JS code on users who interact with incorrectly
In pygments 1.1+, fixed in 2.7.4, the lexers used to parse programming languages rely heavily on regular expressions. Some of the regular expressions have exponential or cubic worst-case complexity and are vulnerable to ReDoS. By crafting malicious input, an attacker can cause a denial of service (CVE-2021-27291).
A flaw was found in polkit. When a requesting process disconnects from dbus-daemon just before the call to polkit_system_bus_name_get_creds_sync starts, the process cannot get a unique uid and pid of the process and it cannot verify the privileges of the requesting process (CVE-2021-3560).

TELNET stack contents disclosure (CVE-2021-22898). References: - https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=28971 - https://curl.se/docs/CVE-2021-22898.html
The updated packages fix security vulnerabilities: Out of bounds-read when parsing a `WM_COPYDATA` message. (CVE-2021-29964) Memory safety bugs fixed in Thunderbird 78.11. (CVE-2021-29967)
The updated package fixes security vulnerabilities: A heap buffer overflow read was discovered in upx 4.0.0, because the check in p_lx_elf.cpp is not perfect. (CVE-2020-24119)
The updated packages fix security vulnerabilities: Heap-based buffer overflow in Jp2Image::readMetadata(). (CVE-2021-3482) Heap-based buffer overflow in Exiv2::Jp2Image::doWriteMetadata.
Updated cgal packages fix security vulnerabilities: An oob read vulnerability exists in Nef_2/PM_io_parser.h PM_io_parser::read_vertex() Face_of[] OOB read. An attacker can provide malicious input to trigger this vulnerability (CVE-2020-28601).
