Ubuntu Security Notice 6402-1 - It was discovered that LibTomMath incorrectly handled certain inputs. An attacker could possibly use this issue to execute arbitrary code and cause a denial of service.

## Impact **Remote Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF)** **Issue**: TorchServe default configuration lacks proper input validation, enabling third parties to invoke remote HTTP download requests and write files to the disk. This issue could be taken advantage of to compromise the integrity of the system and sensitive data. This issue is present in versions `0.1.0` to `0.8.1`. **Mitigation**: The user is able to load the model of their choice from any URL that they would like to use. The user of TorchServe is responsible for configuring both the [allowed_urls](https://github.com/pytorch/serve/blob/b3eced56b4d9d5d3b8597aa506a0bcf954d291bc/docs/configuration.md?plain=1#L296) and specifying the model URL to be used. A pull request to warn the user when the default value for `allowed_urls` is used has been merged - https://github.com/pytorch/serve/pull/2534. TorchServe release `0.8.2` includes this change. ## Patches ## TorchServe release 0.8.2 includes fixes to address the previou...

## Impact **Use of Open Source Library potentially exposed to RCE** **Issue**: Use of a version of the SnakeYAML `v1.31 `open source library with multiple issues that potentially exposes the user to unsafe deserialization of Java objects. This could allow third parties to execute arbitrary code on the target system. This issue is present in versions `0.3.0` to `0.8.1`. **Mitigation**: A pull request to address this issue has been merged - https://github.com/pytorch/serve/pull/2523. TorchServe release `0.8.2` includes this fix. ## Patches ## TorchServe release 0.8.2 includes fixes to address the previously listed issue: https://github.com/pytorch/serve/releases/tag/v0.8.2 **Tags for upgraded DLC release** User can use the following new image tags to pull DLCs that ship with patched TorchServe version 0.8.2: x86 GPU * v1.9-pt-ec2-2.0.1-inf-gpu-py310 * v1.8-pt-sagemaker-2.0.1-inf-gpu-py310 x86 CPU * v1.8-pt-ec2-2.0.1-inf-cpu-py310 * v1.7-pt-sagemaker-2.0.1-inf-cpu-py310 G...

Hello everyone! On the last day of September, I decided to record another retrospective episode on how my Vulnerability Management month went. Alternative video link (for Russia): https://vk.com/video-149273431_456239136 September was quite a busy month for me. Vulnerability Management courses I participated in two educational activities. The first one is an on-line cyber security course for […]

Ubuntu Security Notice 6386-2 - Jana Hofmann, Emanuele Vannacci, Cedric Fournet, Boris Kopf, and Oleksii Oleksenko discovered that some AMD processors could leak stale data from division operations in certain situations. A local attacker could possibly use this to expose sensitive information. It was discovered that the bluetooth subsystem in the Linux kernel did not properly handle L2CAP socket release, leading to a use-after-free vulnerability. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code.

TorchServe is a tool for serving and scaling PyTorch models in production. TorchServe default configuration lacks proper input validation, enabling third parties to invoke remote HTTP download requests and write files to the disk. This issue could be taken advantage of to compromise the integrity of the system and sensitive data. This issue is present in versions 0.1.0 to 0.8.1. A user is able to load the model of their choice from any URL that they would like to use. The user of TorchServe is responsible for configuring both the allowed_urls and specifying the model URL to be used. A pull request to warn the user when the default value for allowed_urls is used has been merged in PR #2534. TorchServe release 0.8.2 includes this change. Users are advised to upgrade. There are no known workarounds for this issue.

Ubuntu Security Notice 6369-2 - USN-6369-1 fixed a vulnerability in libwebp. This update provides the corresponding update for Ubuntu 18.04 LTS. It was discovered that libwebp incorrectly handled certain malformed images. If a user or automated system were tricked into opening a specially crafted image file, a remote attacker could use this issue to cause libwebp to crash, resulting in a denial of service, or possibly execute arbitrary code.

Ubuntu Security Notice 6400-1 - It was discovered that Python did not properly provide constant-time processing for a crypto operation. An attacker could possibly use this issue to perform a timing attack and recover sensitive information.

### Impact This vulnerability affects deployments of Imageflow that involve decoding or processing malicious source .webp files. If you only process your own trusted files, this should not affect you (but you should update anyway). Imageflow relies on Google's [libwebp] library to decode .webp images, and is affected by the recent zero-day out-of-bounds write vulnerability [CVE-2023-4863](https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2023-4863) and https://github.com/advisories/GHSA-j7hp-h8jx-5ppr. The libwebp vulnerability also affects Chrome, Android, macOS, and other consumers of the library). libwebp patched [the vulnerability](https://github.com/webmproject/libwebp/commit/2af26267cdfcb63a88e5c74a85927a12d6ca1d76 ) and released [1.3.2](https://github.com/webmproject/libwebp/releases/tag/v1.3.2) This was patched in [libwebp-sys in 0.9.3 and 0.9.4](https://github.com/NoXF/libwebp-sys/commits/master) **[Imageflow v2.0.0-preview8](https://github.com/imazen/imageflow/releases/tag/v2.0.0-p...

Ubuntu Security Notice 6399-1 - It was discovered that Puma incorrectly handled parsing certain headers. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to perform an HTTP request Smuggling attack.
