(CVE-2024-3858) Ronald Crane discovered that Firefox did not properly manage memory in the OpenType sanitizer on 32-bit devices, leading to an out-of-bounds read vulnerability. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service or expose sensitive information. (CVE-2024-3859) Garry Kwong discovered that Firefox did not properly manage memory when tracing empty shape lists in JIT. An attacker could potentially exploit this issue to cause a denial of service. (CVE-2024-3860) Ronald Crane discovered that Firefox did not properly manage memory when handling an AlignedBuffer. An attacker could potentially exploit this issue to cause denial of service, or execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2024-3861) Ronald Crane discovered that Firefox did not properly manage memory when handling code in MarkStack. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service or execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2024-3862)
  • USN-6742-2: Linux kernel vulnerabilities
    Daniele Antonioli discovered that the Secure Simple Pairing and Secure Connections pairing in the Bluetooth protocol could allow an unauthenticated user to complete authentication without pairing credentials. A physically proximate attacker placed between two Bluetooth devices could use this to subsequently impersonate one of the paired devices. (CVE-2023-24023) Several security issues were discovered in the Linux kernel. An attacker could possibly use these to compromise the system. This update corrects flaws in the following subsystems: - JFS file system; - Netfilter; (CVE-2024-26581, CVE-2023-52600, CVE-2023-52603)
  • USN-6746-1: Google Guest Agent and Google OS Config Agent vulnerability
    It was discovered that Google Guest Agent and Google OS Config Agent incorrectly handled certain JSON files. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service.
  • USN-6728-3: Squid vulnerability
    USN-6728-1 fixed vulnerabilities in Squid. The fix for CVE-2023-5824 caused Squid to crash in certain environments on Ubuntu 20.04 LTS and was disabled in USN-6728-2. The problematic fix for CVE-2023-5824 has now been corrected and reinstated in this update. We apologize for the inconvenience. Original advisory details: Joshua Rogers discovered that Squid incorrectly handled collapsed forwarding. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause Squid to crash, resulting in a denial of service. This issue only affected Ubuntu 20.04 LTS and Ubuntu 22.04 LTS. (CVE-2023-49288) Joshua Rogers discovered that Squid incorrectly handled certain structural elements. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause Squid to crash, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2023-5824) Joshua Rogers discovered that Squid incorrectly handled Cache Manager error responses. A remote trusted client can possibly use this issue to cause Squid to crash, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2024-23638) Joshua Rogers discovered that Squid incorrectly handled the HTTP Chunked decoder. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause Squid to stop responding, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2024-25111) Joshua Rogers discovered that Squid incorrectly handled HTTP header parsing. A remote trusted client can possibly use this issue to cause Squid to crash, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2024-25617)
  • USN-6743-2: Linux kernel (Low Latency) vulnerabilities
    Several security issues were discovered in the Linux kernel. An attacker could possibly use these to compromise the system. This update corrects flaws in the following subsystems: - JFS file system; - BPF subsystem; - Netfilter; (CVE-2023-52600, CVE-2024-26589, CVE-2024-26591, CVE-2024-26581, CVE-2023-52603)
  • USN-6744-2: Pillow vulnerability
    USN-6744-1 fixed a vulnerability in Pillow (Python 3). This update provides the corresponding updates for Pillow (Python 2) in Ubuntu 20.04 LTS. Original advisory details: Hugo van Kemenade discovered that Pillow was not properly performing bounds checks when processing an ICC file, which could lead to a buffer overflow. If a user or automated system were tricked into processing a specially crafted ICC file, an attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service or execute arbitrary code.
  • USN-6745-1: Percona XtraBackup vulnerability
    It was discovered that in Percona XtraBackup, a local crafted filename could trigger arbitrary code execution.
  • USN-6738-1: LXD vulnerability
    Fabian Bäumer, Marcus Brinkmann, and Jörg Schwenk discovered that LXD incorrectly handled the handshake phase and the use of sequence numbers in SSH Binary Packet Protocol (BPP). If a user or an automated system were tricked into opening a specially crafted input file, a remote attacker could possibly use this issue to bypass integrity checks.
  • USN-6744-1: Pillow vulnerability
    Hugo van Kemenade discovered that Pillow was not properly performing bounds checks when processing an ICC file, which could lead to a buffer overflow. If a user or automated system were tricked into processing a specially crafted ICC file, an attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service or execute arbitrary code.
