It was discovered that the OverlayFS implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly handle copy up operation in some conditions. A local attacker could possibly use this to gain elevated privileges. It was discovered that the Broadcom FullMAC USB WiFi driver in the Linux kernel did not properly perform data buffer size validation in some situations. A physically proximate attacker could use this to craft a malicious USB device that when inserted, could cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly expose sensitive information. It was discovered that a race condition existed in the io_uring subsystem in the Linux kernel, leading to a use-after-free vulnerability. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code. Various other issues were also addressed.

Ubuntu Security Notice 6183-1 - Shoham Danino, Anat Bremler-Barr, Yehuda Afek, and Yuval Shavitt discovered that Bind incorrectly handled the cache size limit. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to consume memory, leading to a denial of service. It was discovered that Bind incorrectly handled the recursive-clients quota. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause Bind to crash, resulting in a denial of service. This issue only affected Ubuntu 22.04 LTS, Ubuntu 22.10, and Ubuntu 23.04.

Ubuntu Security Notice 6180-1 - It was discovered that VLC could be made to read out of bounds when decoding image files. If a user were tricked into opening a crafted image file, a remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause VLC to crash, leading to a denial of service. This issue only affected Ubuntu 16.04 LTS and Ubuntu 18.04 LTS. It was discovered that VLC could be made to write out of bounds when processing H.264 video files. If a user were tricked into opening a crafted H.264 video file, a remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause VLC to crash, leading to a denial of service, or possibly execute arbitrary code. This issue only affected Ubuntu 18.04 LTS and Ubuntu 20.04 LTS.

Nokia ASIKA version 7.13.52 suffers from a hard-coded private key disclosure vulnerability.

Ubuntu Security Notice 6143-3 - USN-6143-1 fixed vulnerabilities and USN-6143-2 fixed minor regressions in Firefox. The update introduced several minor regressions. This update fixes the problem. 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. Jun Kokatsu discovered that Firefox did not properly validate site-isolated process for a document loaded from a data: URL that was the result of a redirect, leading to an open redirect attack. An attacker could possibly use this issue to perform phishing attacks.
