Ubuntu Security Notice 6049-1 - It was discovered that Netty's Zlib decoders did not limit memory allocations. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause Netty to exhaust memory via malicious input, leading to a denial of service. This issue only affected Ubuntu 16.04 ESM and Ubuntu 20.04 ESM. It was discovered that Netty created temporary files with excessive permissions. A local attacker could possibly use this issue to expose sensitive information. This issue only affected Ubuntu 16.04 ESM, Ubuntu 18.04 ESM, and Ubuntu 20.04 ESM.

Apache StreamPark versions 1.0.0 to 2.0.0 have an LDAP injection vulnerability. LDAP Injection is an attack used to exploit web based applications that construct LDAP statements based on user input. When an application fails to properly sanitize user input, it's possible to modify LDAP statements through techniques similar to SQL Injection. LDAP injection attacks could result in the granting of permissions to unauthorized queries, and content modification inside the LDAP tree. This risk may only occur when the user logs in with ldap, and the user name and password login will not be affected, Users of the affected versions should upgrade to Apache StreamPark 2.0.0 or later.

A heap out-of-bounds read/write vulnerability in the Linux Kernel traffic control (QoS) subsystem can be exploited to achieve local privilege escalation. The qfq_change_class function does not properly limit the lmax variable which can lead to out-of-bounds read/write. If the TCA_QFQ_LMAX value is not offered through nlattr, lmax is determined by the MTU value of the network device. The MTU of the loopback device can be set up to 2^31-1 and as a result, it is possible to have an lmax value that exceeds QFQ_MIN_LMAX. We recommend upgrading past commit 3037933448f60f9acb705997eae62013ecb81e0d.

HTTP::Tiny 0.082, a Perl core module since 5.13.9 and available standalone on CPAN, has an insecure default TLS configuration where users must opt in to verify certificates.

GitLab::API::v4 through 0.26 does not verify TLS certificates when connecting to a GitLab server, enabling machine-in-the-middle attacks.

CPAN.pm before 2.35 does not verify TLS certificates when downloading distributions over HTTPS.

An arbitrary file upload vulnerability in the plugin upload function of Textpattern v4.8.8 allows attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted Zip file.

An issue discovered in mccms 2.6.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via Backend management interface ->System Configuration->Cache Configuration->Cache security characters.
