Fullscreen notification obscured. (CVE-2023-29533) Double-free in libwebp. (MFSA-TMP-2023-0001) Potential Memory Corruption following Garbage Collector compaction. (CVE-2023-29535) Invalid free from JavaScript code. (CVE-2023-29536)
Updated firefox and libwebp packages fix security vulnerabilities: Unexpected data returned from the Safe Browsing API could have led to memory corruption and a potentially exploitable crash (CVE-2023-1945).
DOS due to incorrect HTTP and MIME header parsing (CVE-2023-24534) DOS due to incorrect Multipart form parsing (CVE-2023-24536) Calling any of the Parse functions on Go source code which contains //line directives with very large line numbers can cause an infinite loop due to integer overflow. (CVE-2023-24537)
Vulnerability in the strided image data parsing code in the emscripten wrapper for libheif. An attacker could exploit this through a crafted image file to cause a buffer overflow in linear memory during a memcpy call. (CVE-2023-0996)
A heap overflow can occur with crafted JPEG image file. (CVE-2023-27781) References: - https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=31764 - https://github.com/tjko/jpegoptim/issues/132

Included in Log4j 1.2 is a SocketServer class that is vulnerable to deserialization of untrusted data which can be exploited to remotely execute arbitrary code when combined with a deserialization gadget when listening to untrusted network traffic for log data. This affects Log4j versions up to 1.2 up to 1.2.17. (CVE-2019-17571)
Disable bundled Trustcor root cerificate signatures generated after Wednesday November 30 00:00:00 2022. (CVE-2022-23491) References: - https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=31248
Openstack manilla owning a Ceph File system "share", enables the owner to read/write any manilla share or entire file system. The vulnerability is due to a bug in the "volumes" plugin in Ceph Manager. This allows an attacker to compromise Confidentiality and Integrity of a file system. (CVE-2022-0670)
Information disclosure due to concurrency bug (CVE-2021-43980) Fix for CVE-2020-9484 introduced a time of check, time of use vulnerability (CVE-2022-23181) Correct documentation to warn of use over untrusted networks. (CVE-2022-29885)
"rvim" can execute a shell through :diffpatch. References: - https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=31766 - https://github.com/vim/vim/commit/23a971da506249fc8388f06cd5c011b83406ac5c
A vulnerability was discovered in ImageMagick where a specially created SVG file loads itself and causes a segmentation fault. This flaw allows a remote attacker to pass a specially crafted SVG file that leads to a segmentation fault, generating many trash files in "/tmp," resulting in a denial of service. When ImageMagick crashes, it generates a lot of trash
It's been found that multiple functions in ipmitool before 1.8.19 neglect proper checking of the data received from a remote LAN party, which may lead to buffer overflows and potentially to remote code execution on the ipmitool side. This is especially dangerous if ipmitool is run as a privileged user. This problem is fixed in version 1.8.19. (CVE-2020-5208)
In Artifex Ghostscript through 10.01.0, there is a buffer overflow leading to potential corruption of data internal to the PostScript interpreter, in base/sbcp.c. This affects BCPEncode, BCPDecode, TBCPEncode, and TBCPDecode. If the write buffer is filled to one byte less than full, and one then tries to write an escaped character, two bytes are written.
Sudo before 1.9.13 does not escape control characters in log messages. (CVE-2023-28486) Sudo before 1.9.13 does not escape control characters in sudoreplay output. (CVE-2023-28487)
Matrix SDK bundled with Thunderbird vulnerable to denial-of-service attack. (CVE-2023-28427) References: - https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=31734
A flaw was found in X.Org Server Overlay Window. A Use-After-Free may lead to local privilege escalation. If a client explicitly destroys the compositor overlay window (aka COW), the Xserver would leave a dangling pointer to that window in the CompScreen structure, which will trigger a use-after-free later. (CVE-2023-1393)
A read buffer overrun can be triggered in X.509 certificate verification, specifically in name constraint checking. Note that this occurs after certificate chain signature verification and requires either a CA to have signed the malicious certificate or for the application to continue certificate verification despite failure to construct a path to a trusted
