Ubuntu Security Notice USN-6700-2

Ubuntu Security Notice 6700-2 - It was discovered that the Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol implementation in the Linux kernel contained a race condition when releasing PPPoL2TP sockets in certain conditions, leading to a use-after-free vulnerability. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code. It was discovered that the ext4 file system implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly handle block device modification while it is mounted. A privileged attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or possibly expose sensitive information.

Ubuntu Security Notice USN-6704-2

Ubuntu Security Notice 6704-2 - It was discovered that the NVIDIA Tegra XUSB pad controller driver in the Linux kernel did not properly handle return values in certain error conditions. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service. Quentin Minster discovered that the KSMBD implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly handle session setup requests. A remote attacker could possibly use this to cause a denial of service.

GHSA-f5x3-32g6-xq36: Denial of service while parsing a tar file due to lack of folders count validation

## Description: During some analysis today on npm's `node-tar` package I came across the folder creation process, Basicly if you provide node-tar with a path like this `./a/b/c/foo.txt` it would create every folder and sub-folder here a, b and c until it reaches the last folder to create `foo.txt`, In-this case I noticed that there's no validation at all on the amount of folders being created, that said we're actually able to CPU and memory consume the system running node-tar and even crash the nodejs client within few seconds of running it using a path with too many sub-folders inside ## Steps To Reproduce: You can reproduce this issue by downloading the tar file I provided in the resources and using node-tar to extract it, you should get the same behavior as the video ## Proof Of Concept: Here's a [video](https://hackerone-us-west-2-production-attachments.s3.us-west-2.amazonaws.com/3i7uojw8s52psar6pg8zkdo4h9io?response-content-disposition=attachment%3B%20filename%3D%22tar-dos-poc....
