HashiCorp Consul Enterprise versions 1.7.0 up to 1.7.8 and 1.8.0 up to 1.8.4 includes a namespace replication bug which can be triggered to cause denial of service via infinite Raft writes. Fixed in 1.7.9 and 1.8.5.
Debian Linux Security Advisory 5611-1 - The Qualys Research Labs discovered several vulnerabilities in the GNU C Library's __vsyslog_internal() function (called by syslog() and vsyslog()). A heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-2023-6246), an off-by-one heap overflow (CVE-2023-6779) and an integer overflow (CVE-2023-6780) can be exploited for privilege escalation or denial of service.
War-FTPD version 1.65 remote denial of service exploit.
Solar FTP Server version 2.1.1 remote denial of service exploit.
Ubuntu Security Notice 6609-2 - Lin Ma discovered that the netfilter subsystem in the Linux kernel did not properly validate network family support while creating a new netfilter table. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code. It was discovered that the CIFS network file system implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly validate the server frame size in certain situation, leading to an out-of-bounds read vulnerability. An attacker could use this to construct a malicious CIFS image that, when operated on, could cause a denial of service or possibly expose sensitive information.
Ubuntu Security Notice 6617-1 - It was discovered that libde265 could be made to write out of bounds. If a user or automated system were tricked into opening a specially crafted file, an attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service or execute arbitrary code. This issue only affected Ubuntu 16.04 LTS and Ubuntu 18.04 LTS. It was discovered that libde265 could be made to write out of bounds. If a user or automated system were tricked into opening a specially crafted file, an attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service or execute arbitrary code.
Ubuntu Security Notice 6618-1 - It was discovered that Pillow incorrectly handled certain long text arguments. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause Pillow to consume resources, leading to a denial of service. This issue only affected Ubuntu 20.04 LTS, and Ubuntu 22.04 LTS. Duarte Santos discovered that Pillow incorrectly handled the environment parameter to PIL.ImageMath.eval. An attacker could possibly use this issue to execute arbitrary code.
Ubuntu Security Notice 6587-3 - USN-6587-1 fixed vulnerabilities in X.Org X Server. The fix was incomplete resulting in a possible regression. This update fixes the problem. Jan-Niklas Sohn discovered that the X.Org X Server incorrectly handled memory when processing the DeviceFocusEvent and ProcXIQueryPointer APIs. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause the X Server to crash, obtain sensitive information, or execute arbitrary code. Jan-Niklas Sohn discovered that the X.Org X Server incorrectly handled reattaching to a different master device. An attacker could use this issue to cause the X Server to crash, leading to a denial of service, or possibly execute arbitrary code. Olivier Fourdan and Donn Seeley discovered that the X.Org X Server incorrectly labeled GLX PBuffers when used with SELinux. An attacker could use this issue to cause the X Server to crash, leading to a denial of service. Olivier Fourdan discovered that the X.Org X Server incorrectly handled the curser co...
Ubuntu Security Notice 6616-1 - It was discovered that OpenLDAP was not properly performing bounds checks when executing functions related to LDAP URLs. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service.
### Vulnerability type Denial of Service ### Detail The etcd gateway is a simple TCP proxy to allow for basic service discovery and access. However, it is possible to include the gateway address as an endpoint. This results in a denial of service, since the endpoint can become stuck in a loop of requesting itself until there are no more available file descriptors to accept connections on the gateway. ### References Find out more on this vulnerability in the [security audit report](https://github.com/etcd-io/etcd/blob/master/security/SECURITY_AUDIT.pdf) ### For more information If you have any questions or comments about this advisory: * Contact the [etcd security committee](https://github.com/etcd-io/etcd/blob/master/security/security-release-process.md#product-security-committee-psc)
