Dbus: dbus-daemon: dbus-daemon aborts (reply_serial != 0) when a broadcast from the driver cannot be delivered to a monitored bus

A flaw was found in D-Bus. With a privileged Monitoring client attached (for example dbus-monitor or busctl monitor), an unprivileged local user can cause dbus-daemon to abort if a driver-originated broadcast such as NameOwnerChanged or ActivatableServicesChanged cannot be delivered to a recipient (for example due to a deny rule or an exceeded outgoing message queue). Driver broadcasts still use serial 0; when delivery fails, composing the monitor error reply asserts reply_serial != 0 and aborts the daemon.

vLLM 0.28.0 before 0.30.0 Denial of Service via Prompt Embeds on XD-RoPE Models

vLLM from 0.28.0 before 0.30.0 contains a reachable assertion vulnerability in GPUModelRunner._init_xdrope_positions that allows remote attackers to crash the engine by submitting embeddings-only requests. Attackers can send a /v1/completions request containing only prompt_embeds to XD-RoPE models with --enable-prompt-embeds, terminating the EngineCore and API server for all clients.

Wasmtime 47.0.0 before 48.0.8 Denial of Service via TypedFunc Type-Check Panic

Wasmtime 47.0.0 before 48.0.8, 49.0.0 before 49.0.5, and 50.0.0 before 50.0.1 contains an insufficient type-check in the TypedFunc embedder API for I31, Option<I31>, and Option<NoneRef> parameter or result types, reaching an unreachable!() path. A malicious guest module exporting a function that uses another anyref-hierarchy type can panic the host embedding, causing denial of service.

Reachable Assertion in Synology DSM Enables Remote DoS

A reachable assertion vulnerability in the synoscgi in Synology DiskStation Manager (DSM) before 7.3.2-86009-5 and 7.4.1-90080-1 allows remote attackers to conduct limited denial-of-service attacks.

frr: bgpd Send Hold Timer expiry bypasses the FSM, leaving a phantom Established session or crashing bgpd with Graceful Restart

In FRRouting 10.1 and later, bgpd does not correctly close a BGP session when the Send Hold Timer (RFC 9687) expires, i.e. when a neighbor has stopped accepting data from the router for twice the hold time. The connection is closed, but bgpd still considers the session to be up. A BGP neighbor that keeps sending KEEPALIVEs but stops reading from its connection, at a time when the router has a large amount of data to send to it (for example while sending it a full routing table), can trigger this. If the neighbor announced Graceful Restart support, bgpd crashes shortly after the session is closed, taking down all BGP sessions on the router, and the neighbor can repeat this each time bgpd restarts. Otherwise, the session stays stuck in the Established state: the neighbor's routes stay installed and keep being advertised to other peers, and the neighbor cannot reconnect until an operator clears the session manually. The neighbor does not need to be malicious; an overloaded or stuck peer can trigger the same behavior. No special configuration is required: any established BGP neighbor can trigger the issue, and Graceful Restart helper mode, which leads to the crash, is enabled by default.

Node.js is vulnerable to a zlib denial of service via a stream destroy during a pending params() call

An uncatchable exception in the Node.js zlib streaming API lets a peer crash a process by disconnecting while data is being compressed. zlib.params() queues a flush and completes its work in that write's callback; if the stream is destroyed first, as pipeline() does when the peer goes away, Writable still invokes the callback with an error, but the callback ignores its arguments and asserts that the native handle still exists. The handle is gone, so an ERR_INTERNAL_ASSERTION is thrown from inside stream internals and bypasses the stream's error event, the params() callback, and the pipeline() callback, terminating the process. An application is affected only if it calls deflate.params() while streaming to a peer, which is uncommon. This vulnerability affects Node.js 26.x, 24.x, and 22.x.

Node.js is vulnerable to a remote HTTP/2 denial of service via a reachable assertion in Http2Session teardown

A reachable assertion in Node.js HTTP/2 session teardown lets any unauthenticated client abort the server, over both TLS and cleartext. A client can arrange for an Http2Stream that still holds nghttp2-allocated header buffers to outlive its session: the stream is removed from the session's stream set but never detached, so when ~Http2Session() runs the memory accounting is nonzero and the CHECK_EQ(current_nghttp2_memory_, 0) assertion fails, terminating the process. The trigger needs only a default http2 server whose handler responds before the request body has ended, which is typical. It is a variant of CVE-2024-27983 that the earlier fix did not cover, because that fix only detached streams still tracked in the session. This vulnerability affects Node.js 26.x (since 26.9.0) and 24.x (since 24.22.0).

In Modem, there is a possible application crash due to a logic error. This could lead to remote denial of service, if a UE has connected to a rogue base station controlled by the attacker, with no additional execution privileges needed. User interaction is not needed for exploitation. Patch ID: MOLY01416152; Issue ID: MSV-7924.

Security Advisory 0214

On affected platforms running Arista EOS with VPLS-BGP enabled, an attacker who has established a BGP session with the PE routers can send a specially crafted BGP packet to cause the BGP agent to restart unexpectedly.

Cockpit: cockpit: denial of service in `cockpit-ws` due to url-root handling without a trailing slash

A flaw was found in `cockpit-ws`. This vulnerability allows a remote, unauthenticated attacker to cause a Denial of Service (DoS) by sending a specially crafted request. When the `WebService.UrlRoot` is configured and a request is made to the exact URL-root prefix without a trailing slash, `cockpit-ws` can terminate unexpectedly. This issue leads to the unavailability of the Cockpit web service.

Zebra zebrad before 7.0.0 Reachable Assertion DoS via Peer Disconnection

ZcashFoundation Zebra zebrad before 7.0.0 contains a reachable assertion race condition that allows unauthenticated remote peers to abort the node by triggering disconnection during a blocked outbound send. Malicious peers can return empty FindBlocks or FindHeaders replies and stop reading their socket, dropping an unresolved MustUseClientResponseSender and terminating syncing nodes.

netfs: Fix missing alloc tagging of direct mempool allocations

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: netfs: Fix missing alloc tagging of direct mempool allocations Commit 1d78d56c43ef ("netfs: Fix folio_queue ENOMEM in writeback by adding a mempool") added a mempool for the folio_queues and made the request, subrequest and folio_queue allocations distinguish between writeback and everything else. Writeback is part of memory reclaim and must not fail due to ENOMEM, so it allocates under GFP_NOFS through mempool_alloc(), which may dip into the pool's reserve and, if that runs empty, wait for elements to be returned. The GFP_KERNEL paths, which can return -ENOMEM to their callers, invoke the pool's ->alloc() callback directly instead. The direct call, however, skips the alloc_hooks() wrapper that the mempool_alloc() macro provides. The pool callbacks, mempool_alloc_slab() and mempool_kmalloc(), call kmem_cache_alloc_noprof() and kmalloc_noprof() and rely on current->alloc_tag having been set by the caller. With CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING_DEBUG=y this leads to current->alloc_tag not set WARNING: ./include/linux/alloc_tag.h:161 at __alloc_tagging_slab_alloc_hook alloc_tag was not set WARNING: ./include/linux/alloc_tag.h:166 at __alloc_tagging_slab_free_hook at allocation and free time respectively, as reported when reading files on a CIFS mount. The allocations are also missing from /proc/allocinfo. Wrap the direct ->alloc() invocations in alloc_hooks() with a new mempool_alloc_noreserve() helper in include/linux/mempool.h, next to the other alloc_hooks()-wrapped macros such as mempool_alloc(). The GFP_KERNEL paths keep their failable allocation semantics, they just get tagged now.

python-markdown: denial of service via malformed HTML-like sequences

Python-Markdown version 3.8 contain a vulnerability where malformed HTML-like sequences can cause html.parser.HTMLParser to raise an unhandled AssertionError during Markdown parsing. Because Python-Markdown does not catch this exception, any application that processes attacker-controlled Markdown may crash. This enables remote, unauthenticated Denial of Service in web applications, documentation systems, CI/CD pipelines, and any service that renders untrusted Markdown. The issue was acknowledged by the vendor and fixed in version 3.8.1. This issue causes a remote Denial of Service in any application parsing untrusted Markdown, and can lead to Information Disclosure through uncaught exceptions.

Tesseract: Crafted LSTM model (`WeightMatrix` mode byte) triggers `ASSERT_HOST` abort in `WeightMatrix::DeSerializeOld` under `FAST_FLOAT` — Denial of Service

Tesseract is an open source OCR engine. Prior to 5.5.4, WeightMatrix::DeSerialize trusts a mode byte from a traineddata LSTM network and calls WeightMatrix::DeSerializeOld when kDoubleFlag is clear. In default FAST_FLOAT builds, DeSerializeOld invokes ASSERT_HOST instead of returning an error, so loading a crafted model through TessBaseAPI::Init terminates the process and causes denial of service. This issue is fixed in version 5.5.4.

FFmpeg 8.1 through 9.0.2 Denial of Service via DPX Vulkan Hwaccel Error Path

FFmpeg 8.1 through 9.0.2 contains a denial of service vulnerability in libavcodec/dpx.c that leaves dpx->hwaccel_picture_private allocated when Vulkan hwaccel callbacks fail. Attackers can supply crafted DPX images that make start_frame, decode_slice or end_frame fail, triggering an av_assert0 abort on the next frame and terminating the decoding application.

FFmpeg through 9.0.2 Assertion Failure DoS via cbs_jpeg_assemble_fragment

FFmpeg through 9.0.2 contains a denial of service vulnerability in cbs_jpeg_assemble_fragment() that miscounts 0xff stuffing bytes in JPEG scan headers. Attackers can supply a crafted JPEG/MJPEG stream with 0xff in the scan header, triggering an av_assert0 abort when CBS-based bitstream filters process it.

FFmpeg through 9.0.2 TTA Encoder Reachable Assertion via tta_encode_frame()

FFmpeg through 9.0.2 contains a reachable assertion vulnerability in the TTA encoder's tta_encode_frame() in libavcodec/ttaenc.c, which never reserves output packet space for the 4-byte CRC. Attackers can supply audio whose sample values and length produce a small, poorly compressible final frame, triggering the av_assert0() in flush_put_bits() and aborting applications transcoding to TTA.

FFmpeg 8.1 through 9.0.2 Denial of Service via lcevc_metadata Bitstream Filter

FFmpeg 8.1 through 9.0.2 contains a denial of service vulnerability in the lcevc_metadata bitstream filter caused by a process block position mismatch in lcevc_metadata_handle_vui(). Attackers can supply crafted LCEVC access units with two IDR or non-IDR NAL units to trigger an av_assert0 failure in ff_cbs_lcevc_list_add(), aborting the application.

FFmpeg through 9.0.2 Reachable Assertion in libxevd EVC Decoder Wrapper

FFmpeg through 9.0.2 contains a reachable assertion vulnerability in libxevd_receive_frame() in libavcodec/libxevd.c that returns success when an access unit produces no frame. Attackers can supply a crafted EVC file with truncated or picture-less access units to trigger the av_assert0() on frame->private_ref, aborting any decoding application.
