An internal reference count is held on the buffer pool, incremented every time a new buffer is created from the pool. The reference count is maintained as an int; on LP64 systems this can cause the reference count to overflow if the client creates a large number of wl_shm buffer objects, or if it can coerce the server to create a large number of external
An out-of-bounds read vulnerability was discovered in the PCRE2 library in the compile_xclass_matchingpath() function of the pcre2_jit_compile.c file. This involves a unicode property matching issue in JIT-compiled regular expressions. The issue occurs because the character was not fully read in case-less matching within JIT. (CVE-2022-1586)
This update provides ffmpeg version 4.3.5, which fixes several security vulnerabilities and other bugs which were corrected upstream. References: - https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=31067
An unauthenticated remote host could send an invalid ClientHello message in which the declared length of the cookie extends past the end of the message. A DTLS server with MBEDTLS_SSL_DTLS_CLIENT_PORT_REUSE enabled would read past the end of the message up to the declared length of the cookie. This could cause a buffer overread of up to 255 bytes on the heap in vulnerable DTLS

When doing HTTP(S) transfers, libcurl might erroneously use the read callback (CURLOPT_READFUNCTION) to ask for data to send, even when the CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS option has been set, if the same handle previously was used to issue a PUT request which used that callback. (CVE-2022-32221)
Integer Overflow in LibKSBA. (CVE-2022-3515) References: - https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=30975 - https://www.gnupg.org/blog/20221017-pepe-left-the-ksba.html
It was discovered that nbd prior to 3.24 contained an integer overflow with a resultant heap-based buffer overflow. A value of 0xffffffff in the name length field will cause a zero-sized buffer to be allocated for the name resulting in a write to a dangling pointer (CVE-2022-26495).
GNOME gdk-pixbuf 2.42.6 is vulnerable to a heap-buffer overflow vulnerability when decoding the lzw compressed stream of image data in GIF files with lzw minimum code size equals to 12. (CVE-2021-44648) References:
An out-of-bounds write issue was found in the VirGL virtual OpenGL renderer (virglrenderer). This flaw allows a malicious guest to create a specially crafted virgil resource and then issue a VIRTGPU_EXECBUFFER ioctl, leading to a denial of service or possible code execution. (CVE-2022-0135)
