Bluez: sdp-xml: bluez 5.86: unprivileged-local and adjacent-le-peer leads to arbitrary code execution as root

BlueZ sdp-xml.c type confusion via RegisterProfile(ServiceRecord) can crash bluetoothd (local DoS): a crafted nested ServiceRecord can corrupt the SDP XML parser stack so scalar union data is treated as a sequence pointer, allowing a local caller to crash bluetoothd.

JIT miscompilation in the JavaScript Engine: JIT component

JIT miscompilation in the JavaScript Engine: JIT component. This vulnerability was fixed in Firefox 160, Firefox ESR 153.7, Thunderbird 160, and Thunderbird 153.7.

GPAC through 26.07.0 Type Confusion via gf_sg_command_apply XMT Field-Replace

GPAC through 26.07.0 contains a type confusion vulnerability in gf_sg_command_apply() in src/scenegraph/commands.c that fails to verify BIFS field-replace command types match target node fields. Attackers can supply a crafted XMT file opened with MP4Box, such as via chapter import, causing gf_sg_vrml_field_clone() to memcpy from invalid pointers and crash.

FreeSWITCH: Pre-authentication invalid pointer dereference in mod_rtmp connect command handling

FreeSWITCH is a Software Defined Telecom Stack enabling the digital transformation from proprietary telecom switches to a software implementation that runs on any commodity hardware. Prior to 1.11.2, rtmp_i_connect() passed the first RTMP connect argument to amf0_object_get() without checking whether the AMF value was an object. A string or number in place of an AMF object caused union bytes from the message to be interpreted as node pointers and dereferenced. Any client with network access to an enabled mod_rtmp listener could send the malformed connect command before login; the module is disabled in the stock build and configuration. The invalid read reliably crashes FreeSWITCH and ends every active call, while no write, memory disclosure, or code execution has been demonstrated. This issue is fixed in version 1.11.2.

.NET and Visual Studio Elevation of Privilege Vulnerability

Access of resource using incompatible type ('type confusion') in .NET and Visual Studio allows an unauthorized attacker to elevate privileges over a network.

Mongoose: Discriminator key values matching inherited properties (e.g. __t: 'constructor') bypass schema casting and can poison collections

Mongoose is a MongoDB object modeling tool designed to work in an asynchronous environment. Prior to 6.13.12, 7.8.13, 8.24.7, and 9.11.4, Mongoose uses attacker-controlled discriminator key values, including the default __t field, to index plain-object registries such as Model.discriminators and schema.discriminators without requiring an own property. Values such as constructor, toString, or hasOwnProperty can therefore resolve to inherited built-in functions instead of a registered discriminator, causing type confusion in model construction, document creation, hydration, query and update casting, embedded discriminators, and populate operations. In the bulkWrite() insertOne path with skipValidation enabled, a constructor value can cause a raw input object to be stored without schema casting or strict filtering, and a stored poisoned document can make every query that hydrates it fail until the document is removed. The weakness reads inherited properties but does not modify Object.prototype and is not prototype pollution. This issue is fixed in versions 6.13.12, 7.8.13, 8.24.7, and 9.11.4.

GPAC through 26.07.0 Type Confusion via drawable_get_aspect_2d_mpeg4

GPAC through 26.07.0 contains a type confusion vulnerability in drawable_get_aspect_2d_mpeg4() and TraverseShape() that casts a Shape's appearance node to M_Appearance without checking its node tag. Attackers can supply a crafted XMT file placing another node type, such as Conditional, in the appearance field to trigger an invalid memory read and crash MP4Box.

CGI versions from 4.71 before 5.00 for Perl allow denial of service via a plain string dereferenced as a symbolic reference in uploadInfo

CGI versions from 4.71 before 5.00 for Perl allow denial of service via a plain string dereferenced as a symbolic reference in uploadInfo. uploadInfo dereferences its argument and calls its filename method without checking that it is an upload filehandle. A plain string naming a defined global variable, such as the parameter value from ?upload=0, is treated as a symbolic reference, and the method call on it dies.

Kernel: tap: tap_open(): correctly initialize socket uid next fix of i_uid to current_fsuid

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's TUN/TAP functionality. This issue could allow a local user to bypass network filters and gain unauthorized access to some resources. The original patches fixing CVE-2023-1076 are incorrect or incomplete. The problem is that the following upstream commits - a096ccca6e50 ("tun: tun_chr_open(): correctly initialize socket uid"), - 66b2c338adce ("tap: tap_open(): correctly initialize socket uid"), pass "inode->i_uid" to sock_init_data_uid() as the last parameter and that turns out to not be accurate.

Samba: type confusion in mdssvc rpc service for spotlight

A Type Confusion vulnerability was found in Samba's mdssvc RPC service for Spotlight. When parsing Spotlight mdssvc RPC packets, one encoded data structure is a key-value style dictionary where the keys are character strings, and the values can be any of the supported types in the mdssvc protocol. Due to a lack of type checking in callers of the dalloc_value_for_key() function, which returns the object associated with a key, a caller may trigger a crash in talloc_get_size() when talloc detects that the passed-in pointer is not a valid talloc pointer. With an RPC worker process shared among multiple client connections, a malicious client or attacker can trigger a process crash in a shared RPC mdssvc worker process, affecting all other clients this worker serves.

Wild pointer dereference in Zephyr BSD sockets when a TCP listening socket reports an asynchronous error

The native BSD-socket layer recorded a pending asynchronous socket error by type-punning it into struct net_context's void user_data field (ctx->user_data = INT_TO_POINTER(-status) in zsock_accepted_cb(), zsock_received_cb(), zsock_connected_cb() and zsock_close_ctx() in subsys/net/lib/sockets/sockets_inet.c), reading it back with POINTER_TO_INT(). That same field is owned by the network stack for listening TCP contexts: net_tcp_accept() stores the parent context pointer there and the TCP core passes it back to the registered accept callback. A failed accept therefore left a small integer (an errno value) where the stack expected a struct net_context . When the network interface carrying a listening TCP socket goes down, close_tcp_conn() in subsys/net/ip/tcp.c invokes the accept callback with -ENETDOWN and the context's user_data. In v4.3.0 the callback was not disarmed afterwards, so a second interface-down event forwarded the previously stored errno to zsock_accepted_cb(), which dereferenced it as the parent context and performed several stores through it (sock_set_error()'s read-modify-write of socket_data, k_fifo_cancel_wait(&parent->recv_q)) — the crash described in the fix's commit message. v4.3.1 and v4.4.x carry a later change clearing conn->accept_cb after the error callback (269cb8823d3 on the v4.3 branch, 913fae5169425550f2364655298fceb79b320066 on main), which closes that repeat path; on those releases the poisoned cookie remains reachable only by a narrower race, a handshake completing alongside the interface-down still passing the stale cookie to k_fifo_put(&parent->accept_q, ...), and by getsockopt(SO_ERROR), which reads the field back unconditionally. On v4.3.0 an application that keeps a listening TCP socket open across repeated link-down events is sufficient to reach the defect; the triggering condition is a network-interface state change, not attacker-supplied packet data, so the practical attacker is one able to force the link down repeatedly (for example an adjacent attacker disrupting a wireless link) or one with local/physical access. Because both the faulting address and the stored data are fixed small constants derived from the errno value, the outcome is a wild-pointer access leading to a kernel fatal error — a denial of service (device crash or reset) rather than an attacker-directed memory corruption. The fix stores the pending error in a dedicated net_context.sock_error field and converts every producer and consumer to sock_set_error()/sock_get_error(), leaving user_data untouched. As a side effect it also stops getsockopt(SO_ERROR) — which is evaluated unconditionally — from returning the kernel address held in user_data to a userspace application.

netfilter: xt_cluster: reject template conntracks in hash match

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: netfilter: xt_cluster: reject template conntracks in hash match xt_cluster_mt() treats any non-NULL nf_ct_get() result as a fully initialized conntrack and passes it to xt_cluster_hash(). This causes a state confusion bug when the raw table CT target attaches a template conntrack to skb->_nfct before normal conntrack processing. Templates carry IPS_TEMPLATE status but do not have a valid tuple for hashing yet, so xt_cluster_hash() can hit its WARN_ON() path on the zeroed l3num field. Reject template conntracks before hashing them. This matches existing netfilter handling for template objects and avoids hashing incomplete conntrack state.

usb: atm: ueagle-atm: reject descriptors that confuse probe and disconnect

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: usb: atm: ueagle-atm: reject descriptors that confuse probe and disconnect uea_probe() distinguishes a pre-firmware device from a post-firmware one using the USB id (UEA_IS_PREFIRM()), and stores a different object as the interface data in each case: a 'struct completion' for a pre-firmware device (to be waited on in .disconnect()), or a 'struct usbatm_data' for a post-firmware one. uea_disconnect() instead tells the two apart by the number of interfaces of the active configuration (a pre-firmware device exposes a single interface, ADI930 has 2 and eagle has 3), and casts the interface data accordingly. Because the two handlers use different criteria, a crafted device that advertises a pre-firmware id together with a multi-interface descriptor (or a post-firmware id with a single interface) makes them disagree: the small 'struct completion' stored by uea_probe() is then passed to usbatm_usb_disconnect(), which casts it to 'struct usbatm_data' and takes instance->serialize, reading past the end of the allocation: BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in __mutex_lock+0x152a/0x1b80 Read of size 8 at addr ffff8880470e2c60 by task kworker/1:2/982 ... __mutex_lock+0x152a/0x1b80 usbatm_usb_disconnect+0x70/0x820 uea_disconnect+0x133/0x2c0 usb_unbind_interface+0x1dd/0x9e0 ... which belongs to the cache kmalloc-96 of size 96 The buggy address is located 0 bytes to the right of allocated 96-byte region [ffff8880470e2c00, ffff8880470e2c60) Reject such inconsistent descriptors in uea_probe() so that both handlers always make the same pre/post-firmware decision.
