### Impact contracts containing large arrays might underallocate the number of slots they need. prior to v0.3.8, the calculation to determine how many slots a storage variable needed used `math.ceil(type_.size_in_bytes / 32)`: https://github.com/vyperlang/vyper/blob/6020b8bbf66b062d299d87bc7e4eddc4c9d1c157/vyper/semantics/validation/data_positions.py#L197 the intermediate floating point step can produce a rounding error if there are enough bits set in the IEEE-754 mantissa. roughly speaking, if `type_.size_in_bytes` is large (> 2**46), and slightly less than a power of 2, the calculation can overestimate how many slots are needed. if `type_.size_in_bytes` is slightly more than a power of 2, the calculation can underestimate how many slots are needed. the following two example contracts can result in overwriting of the variable `vulnerable`: ```vyper large_array: address[2**64 + 1] # type_.size_in_bytes == 32 * (2**64 + 1); math.ceil(type_.size_in_bytes / 32) < 2**64 + 1 vulnerable:...

The company’s regular set of advisories has included a vulnerability that’s been actively exploited in the wild in 10 months this year.

A vulnerability in the AnyConnect SSL VPN feature of Cisco Adaptive Security Appliance (ASA) Software and Cisco Firepower Threat Defense (FTD) Software could allow an authenticated, remote attacker to send packets with another VPN user's source IP address. This vulnerability is due to improper validation of the packet's inner source IP address after decryption. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending crafted packets through the tunnel. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to send a packet impersonating another VPN user's IP address. It is not possible for the attacker to receive return packets.

Ubuntu Security Notice 6550-1 - It was discovered that Smarty, that is integrated in the PostfixAdmin code, was not properly sanitizing user input when generating templates. An attacker could, through PHP injection, possibly use this issue to execute arbitrary code. It was discovered that Moment.js, that is integrated in the PostfixAdmin code, was using an inefficient parsing algorithm when processing date strings in the RFC 2822 standard. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service.

Ubuntu Security Notice 6549-1 - It was discovered that the USB subsystem in the Linux kernel contained a race condition while handling device descriptors in certain situations, leading to a out-of-bounds read vulnerability. A local attacker could possibly use this to cause a denial of service. Lin Ma discovered that the Netlink Transformation subsystem in the Linux kernel did not properly initialize a policy data structure, leading to an out-of-bounds vulnerability. A local privileged attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or possibly expose sensitive information.

Ubuntu Security Notice 6548-1 - It was discovered that Spectre-BHB mitigations were missing for Ampere processors. A local attacker could potentially use this to expose sensitive information. It was discovered that the USB subsystem in the Linux kernel contained a race condition while handling device descriptors in certain situations, leading to a out-of-bounds read vulnerability. A local attacker could possibly use this to cause a denial of service.

Ubuntu Security Notice 6546-1 - Reginaldo Silva discovered that LibreOffice incorrectly handled filenames when passing embedded videos to GStreamer. If a user were tricked into opening a specially crafted file, a remote attacker could possibly use this issue to execute arbitrary GStreamer plugins. Reginaldo Silva discovered that LibreOffice incorrectly handled certain non-typical hyperlinks. If a user were tricked into opening a specially crafted file, a remote attacker could possibly use this issue to execute arbitrary scripts.

Affected devices improperly handle specially crafted packets sent to port 102/tcp. This could allow an attacker to create a denial of service condition. A restart is needed to restore normal operations.

2023 has seen its fair share of cyber attacks, however there’s one attack vector that proves to be more prominent than others - non-human access. With 11 high-profile attacks in 13 months and an ever-growing ungoverned attack surface, non-human identities are the new perimeter, and 2023 is only the beginning.  Why non-human access is a cybercriminal’s paradise  People always

A Huawei data communication product has a command injection vulnerability. Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow attackers to gain higher privileges.
