Greg Hudson discovered integer overflow flaws in the PAC parsing in krb5, the MIT implementation of Kerberos, which may result in remote code execution (in a KDC, kadmin, or GSS or Kerberos application server process), information exposure (to a cross-realm KDC acting maliciously), or denial of service (KDC or kadmind process crash).

GNU Emacs through 28.2 allows attackers to execute commands via shell metacharacters in the name of a source-code file, because lib-src/etags.c uses the system C library function in its implementation of the ctags program. For example, a victim may use the "ctags *" command (suggested in the ctags documentation) in a situation where the current working
