Git is distributed revision control system. `git log` can display commits in an arbitrary format using its `--format` specifiers. This functionality is also exposed to `git archive` via the `export-subst` gitattribute. When processing the padding operators, there is a integer overflow in `pretty.c::format_and_pad_commit()` where a `size_t` is stored improperly as an `int`, and then added as an offset to a `memcpy()`. This overflow can be triggered directly by a user running a command which invokes the commit formatting machinery (e.g., `git log --format=...`). It may also be triggered indirectly through git archive via the export-subst mechanism, which expands format specifiers inside of files within the repository during a git archive. This integer overflow can result in arbitrary heap writes, which may result in arbitrary code execution. The problem has been patched in the versions published on 2023-01-17, going back to v2.30.7. Users are advised to upgrade. Users who are unable to u...

The 'LDAP Integration with Active Directory and OpenLDAP - NTLM & Kerberos Login' extension is vulnerable to LDAP Injection since is not properly sanitizing the 'username' POST parameter. An attacker can manipulate this paramter to dump arbitrary contents form the LDAP Database.

Security professionals must update their skill sets and be proactive to stay ahead of cybercriminals. It's time to learn to think and act like an attacker to cope with the cyber "new normal."

Ubuntu Security Notice 5804-2 - 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.

Two of the vulnerabilities — in Azure Functions and Azure Digital Twins — required no account authentication for an attacker to exploit them.

In 2022, multiple high-profile vulnerabilities like Log4j and OpenSSL provided important takeaways for future public reporting.

The Fontsy WordPress plugin through 1.8.6 does not properly sanitize and escape a parameter before using it in a SQL statement via an AJAX action available to unauthenticated users, leading to a SQL injection.

The Conditional Payment Methods for WooCommerce WordPress plugin through 1.0 does not properly sanitise and escape a parameter before using it in a SQL statement, leading to a SQL injection exploitable by [high privilege users such as admin|users with a role as low as admin.
