Ubuntu Security Notice USN-6515-1

Ubuntu Security Notice 6515-1 - Multiple security issues were discovered in Thunderbird. If a user were tricked into opening a specially crafted website in a browsing context, an attacker could potentially exploit these to cause a denial of service, obtain sensitive information, bypass security restrictions, cross-site tracing, or execute arbitrary code. It was discovered that Thunderbird did not properly manage memory when images were created on the canvas element. An attacker could potentially exploit this issue to obtain sensitive information.

GHSA-c37r-v8jx-7cv2: Mattermost Uncontrolled Resource Consumption vulnerability

Mattermost fails to properly limit the characters allowed in different fields of a block in Mattermost Boards allowing a attacker to consume excessive resources, possibly leading to Denial of Service, by patching the field of a block using a specially crafted string. 

GHSA-p5pr-vm3j-jxxf: Mattermost Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor vulnerability

Mattermost fails to properly validate the "Show Full Name" option in a few endpoints in Mattermost Boards, allowing a member to get the full name of another user even if the Show Full Name option was disabled. 

GHSA-4ghx-8jw8-p76q: Mattermost Open Redirect vulnerability

Mattermost fails to properly check a redirect URL parameter allowing for an open redirect was possible when the user clicked "Back to Mattermost" after providing a invalid custom url scheme in /oauth/{service}/mobile_login?redirect_to=

Ubuntu Security Notice USN-6509-1

Ubuntu Security Notice 6509-1 - Multiple security issues were discovered in Firefox. If a user were tricked into opening a specially crafted website, an attacker could potentially exploit these to cause a denial of service, obtain sensitive information across domains, or execute arbitrary code. It was discovered that Firefox did not properly manage memory when images were created on the canvas element. An attacker could potentially exploit this issue to obtain sensitive information.

CVE-2023-49298: dnode_is_dirty: check dnode and its data for dirtiness by robn · Pull Request #15571 · openzfs/zfs

OpenZFS through 2.1.13 and 2.2.x through 2.2.1, in certain scenarios involving applications that try to rely on efficient copying of file data, can replace file contents with zero-valued bytes and thus potentially disable security mechanisms. NOTE: this issue is not always security related, but can be security related in realistic situations. A possible example is cp, from a recent GNU Core Utilities (coreutils) version, when attempting to preserve a rule set for denying unauthorized access. (One might use cp when configuring access control, such as with the /etc/hosts.deny file specified in the IBM Support reference.) NOTE: this issue occurs less often in version 2.2.1, and in versions before 2.1.4, because of the default configuration in those versions.

CVE-2023-48711: Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) Vulnerability

google-translate-api-browser is an npm package which interfaces with the google translate web api. A Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) Vulnerability is present in applications utilizing the `google-translate-api-browser` package and exposing the `translateOptions` to the end user. An attacker can set a malicious `tld`, causing the application to return unsafe URLs pointing towards local resources. The `translateOptions.tld` field is not properly sanitized before being placed in the Google translate URL. This can allow an attacker with control over the `translateOptions` to set the `tld` to a payload such as `@127.0.0.1`. This causes the full URL to become `https://translate.google.@127.0.0.1/...`, where `translate.google.` is the username used to connect to localhost. An attacker can send requests within internal networks and the local host. Should any HTTPS application be present on the internal network with a vulnerability exploitable via a GET call, then it would be possible to exp...

CVE-2023-20241: Cisco Security Advisory: Cisco Secure Client Software Denial of Service Vulnerabilities

Multiple vulnerabilities in Cisco Secure Client Software, formerly AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client, could allow an authenticated, local attacker to cause a denial of service (DoS) condition on an affected system. These vulnerabilities are due to an out-of-bounds memory read from Cisco Secure Client Software. An attacker could exploit these vulnerabilities by logging in to an affected device at the same time that another user is accessing Cisco Secure Client on the same system, and then sending crafted packets to a port on that local host. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to crash the VPN Agent service, causing it to be unavailable to all users of the system. To exploit these vulnerabilities, the attacker must have valid credentials on a multi-user system.
