Ubuntu Security Notice 6042-1 - James Glovich discovered that sensitive data could be exposed in logs. An attacker could use this information to find hashed passwords and possibly escalate their privilege.

Ubuntu Security Notice 6045-1 - It was discovered that the Traffic-Control Index implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly perform filter deactivation in some situations. A local attacker could possibly use this to gain elevated privileges. Please note that with the fix for this CVE, kernel support for the TCINDEX classifier has been removed. Gwnaun Jung discovered that the SFB packet scheduling implementation in the Linux kernel contained a use-after-free vulnerability. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code.

Ubuntu Security Notice 6044-1 - It was discovered that the Traffic-Control Index implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly perform filter deactivation in some situations. A local attacker could possibly use this to gain elevated privileges. Please note that with the fix for this CVE, kernel support for the TCINDEX classifier has been removed. 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 or possibly execute arbitrary code.

Ubuntu Security Notice 6017-2 - USN-6017-1 fixed vulnerabilities in Ghostscript. This update provides the corresponding updates for Ubuntu 23.04. Hadrien Perrineau discovered that Ghostscript incorrectly handled certain inputs. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service, or possibly execute arbitrary code.

Ubuntu Security Notice 6043-1 - It was discovered that the Traffic-Control Index implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly perform filter deactivation in some situations. A local attacker could possibly use this to gain elevated privileges. Please note that with the fix for thisCVE, kernel support for the TCINDEX classifier has been removed. 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.

Sensitive data could be exposed in logs of cloud-init before version 23.1.2. An attacker could use this information to find hashed passwords and possibly escalate their privilege.

Ubuntu Security Notice 6010-3 - USN-6010-1 fixed vulnerabilities and USN-6010-2 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. Irvan Kurniawan discovered that Firefox did not properly manage fullscreen notifications using a combination of window.open, fullscreen requests, window.name assignments, and setInterval calls. An attacker could potentially exploit this issue to perform spoofing attacks. Lukas Bernhard discovered that Firefox did not properly manage memory when doing Garbage Collector compaction. An attacker could potentially exploits this issue to cause a denial of service. Zx from qriousec discovered that Firefox did not properly validate the addres...

Ubuntu Security Notice 6039-1 - It was discovered that OpenSSL was not properly managing file locks when processing policy constraints. If a user or automated system were tricked into processing a certificate chain with specially crafted policy constraints, a remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service. This issue only affected Ubuntu 22.04 LTS and Ubuntu 22.10. David Benjamin discovered that OpenSSL was not properly performing the verification of X.509 certificate chains that include policy constraints, which could lead to excessive resource consumption. If a user or automated system were tricked into processing a specially crafted X.509 certificate chain that includes policy constraints, a remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service.

Aigital Wireless-N Repeater Mini_Router v0.131229 was discovered to contain a remote code execution (RCE) vulnerability via the sysCmd parameter in the formSysCmd function. This vulnerability is exploited via a crafted HTTP request.

Apptainer is an open source container platform for Linux. There is an ext4 use-after-free flaw that is exploitable through versions of Apptainer < 1.1.0, installations that include apptainer-suid < 1.1.8, and all versions of Singularity in their default configurations on older operating systems where that CVE has not been patched. That includes Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7, Debian 10 buster (unless the linux-5.10 package is installed), Ubuntu 18.04 bionic and Ubuntu 20.04 focal. Use-after-free flaws in the kernel can be used to attack the kernel for denial of service and potentially for privilege escalation. Apptainer 1.1.8 includes a patch that by default disables mounting of extfs filesystem types in setuid-root mode, while continuing to allow mounting of extfs filesystems in non-setuid "rootless" mode using fuse2fs. Some workarounds are possible. Either do not install apptainer-suid (for versions 1.1.0 through 1.1.7) or set `allow setuid = no` in apptainer.conf (or singularity.conf ...
