The U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) on Friday added three flaws to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) catalog, citing evidence of active abuse in the wild. Included among the three is CVE-2022-24990, a bug affecting TerraMaster network-attached storage (TNAS) devices that could lead to unauthenticated remote code execution with the highest privileges. Details

Dell PowerEdge BIOS contains an Improper SMM communication buffer verification vulnerability. A local malicious user with high Privileges may potentially exploit this vulnerability to perform arbitrary code execution or cause denial of service.

The US Treasury Department linked the notorious cybercrime gang to Russian Intelligence Services because cyberattacks that disrupted hospitals and other critical infrastructure align with Russian state interests.

A review of the FBI’s access to foreign intelligence reveals troubling misuse of powerful surveillance tech.

Hardcoded credentials in Global Facilities Management Software (GFMS) Version 3 software distributed by Key Systems Management permits remote attackers to impact availability, confidentiality, accessibility and dependability of electronic key boxes.

Ubuntu Security Notice 5865-1 - It was discovered that an out-of-bounds write vulnerability existed in the Video for Linux 2 implementation in the Linux kernel. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code. Pawan Kumar Gupta, Alyssa Milburn, Amit Peled, Shani Rehana, Nir Shildan and Ariel Sabba discovered that some Intel processors with Enhanced Indirect Branch Restricted Speculation did not properly handle RET instructions after a VM exits. A local attacker could potentially use this to expose sensitive information.

Ubuntu Security Notice 5862-1 - It was discovered that an out-of-bounds write vulnerability existed in the Video for Linux 2 implementation in the Linux kernel. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code. Pawan Kumar Gupta, Alyssa Milburn, Amit Peled, Shani Rehana, Nir Shildan and Ariel Sabba discovered that some Intel processors with Enhanced Indirect Branch Restricted Speculation did not properly handle RET instructions after a VM exits. A local attacker could potentially use this to expose sensitive information.

Ubuntu Security Notice 5861-1 - It was discovered that the NFSD implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly handle some RPC messages, leading to a buffer overflow. A remote attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code. Tamás Koczka discovered that the Bluetooth L2CAP handshake implementation in the Linux kernel contained multiple use-after-free vulnerabilities. A physically proximate attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code.

Ubuntu Security Notice 5859-1 - Davide Ornaghi discovered that the netfilter subsystem in the Linux kernel did not properly handle VLAN headers in some situations. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code. It was discovered that the Netronome Ethernet driver in the Linux kernel contained a use-after-free vulnerability. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code.
