Dell Enterprise SONiC OS, 4.0.0, 4.0.1, contain a cryptographic key vulnerability in SSH. An unauthenticated remote attacker could potentially exploit this vulnerability, leading to unauthorized access to communication.

Dell Wyse ThinOS 2205 contains a Regular Expression Denial of Service Vulnerability in UI. An admin privilege attacker could potentially exploit this vulnerability, leading to denial-of-service.

By Jon Munshaw.  Welcome to this week’s edition of the Threat Source newsletter.  As I wrote about last week, I’ve been diving a lot into apps’ privacy policies recently. And I was recently made aware of a new type of app I never knew existed — family trackers.  There are countless mobile apps for parents to track their children or other family members based on their location, phone usage, and even driving speed. As an anxious soon-to-be-parent, this sounds intriguing to me — it’d be a supped-up version of Find my Friends on Apple devices so I’d never have to ask my teenager (granted, I’m many years away from being at that stage of my life) when they were coming home or where they were.  Just as with all other types of mobile apps, there are pitfalls, though.   Life360, one of the most popular of these types of apps and even tells users what their maximum driving speed was on a given trip, was found in December 2021 to be selling precise location data on its users, potentia...

Any time we welcome this software and hardware into our homes and on our devices, it’s worth considering what sacrifices we might be making elsewhere.

The North Korea-backed Lazarus Group has been observed deploying a Windows rootkit by taking advantage of an exploit in a Dell firmware driver, highlighting new tactics adopted by the state-sponsored adversary. The Bring Your Own Vulnerable Driver (BYOVD) attack, which took place in the autumn of 2021, is another variant of the threat actor's espionage-oriented activity called Operation In(ter)

Dell Hybrid Client prior to version 1.8 contains a Regular Expression Denial of Service Vulnerability in the UI. An adversary with WMS group admin access could potentially exploit this vulnerability, leading to temporary denial-of-service.

drivers/video/fbdev/smscufx.c in the Linux kernel through 5.19.12 has a race condition and resultant use-after-free if a physically proximate attacker removes a USB device while calling open(), aka a race condition between ufx_ops_open and ufx_usb_disconnect.

Networking OS10, versions 10.5.1.x, 10.5.2.x, and 10.5.3.x contain a vulnerability that could allow an attacker to cause a system crash by running particular security scans.

Dell OS10, version 10.5.3.4, contains an Improper Certificate Validation vulnerability in Support Assist. A remote unauthenticated attacker could potentially exploit this vulnerability, leading to unauthorized access to limited switch configuration data. The vulnerability could be leveraged by attackers to conduct man-in-the-middle attacks to gain access to the Support Assist information.

NIOHTTP1 and projects using it for generating HTTP responses can be subject to a HTTP Response Injection attack. This occurs when a HTTP/1.1 server accepts user generated input from an incoming request and reflects it into a HTTP/1.1 response header in some form. A malicious user can add newlines to their input (usually in encoded form) and "inject" those newlines into the returned HTTP response. This capability allows users to work around security headers and HTTP/1.1 framing headers by injecting entirely false responses or other new headers. The injected false responses may also be treated as the response to subsequent requests, which can lead to XSS, cache poisoning, and a number of other flaws. This issue was resolved by adding validation to the HTTPHeaders type, ensuring that there's no whitespace incorrectly present in the HTTP headers provided by users. As the existing API surface is non-failable, all invalid characters are replaced by linear whitespace.
