Secure Offboarding in the Spotlight as Tech Layoffs Mount

A secure-by-design culture is needed to develop a comprehensive offboarding and identity management strategy that limits potential for broader compromise in case of unauthorized access.

Debian Security Advisory 5284-1

Debian Linux Security Advisory 5284-1 - Multiple security issues were discovered in Thunderbird, which could result in denial of service or the execution of arbitrary code.

AppleAVD AppleAVDUserClient::decodeFrameFig Memory Corruption

In the function AppleAVDUserClient::decodeFrameFig, a location in the decoder's IOSurface input buffer is calculated, and then bzero is called on it. The size of this IOSurface's allocation is controllable by the userspace caller, so the calculated pointer can go out of bounds, leading to memory corruption. This issue could potentially allow an unprivileged local application to escalate its privileges to the kernel.

AppleAVD deallocateKernelMemoryInternal Missing Surface Lock

In AppleAVD.kext, pixel buffers are mapped by calling AppleAVDUserClient::_mapPixelBuffer, which eventually calls AppleAVD::allocateKernelMemoryInternal. If the buffer is an IOSurface, the function calls IOSurface::deviceLockSurface before allocating memory by calling prepare. But when a pixel buffer is unmapped by calling AppleAVDUserClient::_unmapPixelBuffer, which calls AppleAVD::deallocateKernelMemoryInternal, the IOSurface is not locked before calling complete. This means that mapping and unmapping can occur at the same time, leading to kernel memory corruption. This bug could allow escalation to kernel privileges from a local app.

CVE-2021-33897: Synthesia News Archive

A buffer overflow in Synthesia before 10.7.5567, when a non-Latin locale is used, allows user-assisted attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a crafted MIDI file with malformed bytes. This file is mishandled during a deletion attempt. In Synthesia before 10.9, an improper path handling allows local attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a crafted MIDI file with malformed bytes.
