Denial of service attack via incorrect parameters to federation APIs

Matrix is an ecosystem for open federated Instant Messaging and VoIP. Synapse is a reference "homeserver" implementation of Matrix. A malicious or poorly-implemented homeserver can inject malformed events into a room by specifying a different room id in the path of a `/send_join`, `/send_leave`, `/invite` or `/exchange_third_party_invite` request. This can lead to a denial of service in which future events will not be correctly sent to other servers over federation. This affects any server which accepts federation requests from untrusted servers. The Matrix Synapse reference implementation before version 1.23.1 the implementation is vulnerable to this injection attack. Issue is fixed in version 1.23.1. As a workaround homeserver administrators could limit access to the federation API to trusted servers (for example via `federation_domain_whitelist`).

Denial of service in fast-csv

Fast-csv is an npm package for parsing and formatting CSVs or any other delimited value file in node. In fast-cvs before version 4.3.6 there is a possible ReDoS vulnerability (Regular Expression Denial of Service) when using ignoreEmpty option when parsing. This has been patched in `v4.3.6` You will only be affected by this if you use the `ignoreEmpty` parsing option. If you do use this option it is recommended that you upgrade to the latest version `v4.3.6` This vulnerability was found using a CodeQL query which identified `EMPTY_ROW_REGEXP` regular expression as vulnerable.

In kdeconnect-kde (aka KDE Connect) before 20.08.2, an attacker on the local network could send crafted packets that trigger use of large amounts of CPU, memory, or network connection slots, aka a Denial of Service attack.

Cisco IOS XR Software for Cisco ASR 9000 Series Aggregation Services Routers Slow Path Forwarding Denial of Service Vulnerability

A vulnerability in the ingress packet processing function of Cisco IOS XR Software for Cisco ASR 9000 Series Aggregation Services Routers could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to cause a denial of service (DoS) condition on an affected device. The vulnerability is due to improper resource allocation when an affected device processes network traffic in software switching mode (punted). An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending specific streams of Layer 2 or Layer 3 protocol data units (PDUs) to an affected device. A successful exploit could cause the affected device to run out of buffer resources, which could make the device unable to process or forward traffic, resulting in a DoS condition. The device would need to be restarted to regain functionality.

An issue was discovered in the sized-chunks crate through 0.6.2 for Rust. In the Chunk implementation, insert_from can have a memory-safety issue upon a panic.

kernel: perf_event_parse_addr_filter memory

A flaw memory leak in the Linux kernel performance monitoring subsystem was found in the way if using PERF_EVENT_IOC_SET_FILTER. A local user could use this flaw to starve the resources causing denial of service.

wildfly-core: memory leak in WildFly host-controller in domain mode while not able to reconnect to domain-controller

A memory leak flaw was found in WildFly in all versions up to 21.0.0.Final, where host-controller tries to reconnect in a loop, generating new connections which are not properly closed while not able to connect to domain-controller. This flaw allows an attacker to cause an Out of memory (OOM) issue, leading to a denial of service. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to system availability.

kernel: non-blocking socket in llcp_sock_connect()

A vulnerability was found in Linux kernel where non-blocking socket in llcp_sock_connect() leads to leak and eventually hanging-up the system.

kernel: memory leak in llcp_sock_connect()

A memory leak vulnerability was found in Linux kernel in llcp_sock_connect

wildfly-openssl: memory leak per HTTP session creation in WildFly OpenSSL

A memory leak flaw was found in WildFly OpenSSL in versions prior to 1.1.3.Final, where it removes an HTTP session. It may allow the attacker to cause OOM leading to a denial of service. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to system availability.

A vulnerability was found in Moodle where the decompressed size of zip files was not checked against available user quota before unzipping them, which could lead to a denial of service risk. This affects versions 3.9 to 3.9.1, 3.8 to 3.8.4, 3.7 to 3.7.7, 3.5 to 3.5.13 and earlier unsupported versions. Fixed in 3.9.2, 3.8.5, 3.7.8 and 3.5.14.

xen: lack of preemption in evtchn_reset() / evtchn_destroy() (XSA-344)

An issue was discovered in Xen through 4.14.x. There is a lack of preemption in evtchn_reset() / evtchn_destroy(). In particular, the FIFO event channel model allows guests to have a large number of event channels active at a time. Closing all of these (when resetting all event channels or when cleaning up after the guest) may take extended periods of time. So far, there was no arrangement for preemption at suitable intervals, allowing a CPU to spend an almost unbounded amount of time in the processing of these operations. Malicious or buggy guest kernels can mount a Denial of Service (DoS) attack affecting the entire system. All Xen versions are vulnerable in principle. Whether versions 4.3 and older are vulnerable depends on underlying hardware characteristics.

An issue was discovered in NFStream 5.2.0. Because some allocated modules are not correctly freed, if the nfstream object is directly destroyed without being used after it is created, it will cause a memory leak that may result in a local denial of service (DoS).

A vulnerability has been identified in SIMATIC NET CP 343-1 Advanced (incl. SIPLUS variants) (All versions), SIMATIC NET CP 343-1 Lean (incl. SIPLUS variants) (All versions), SIMATIC NET CP 343-1 Standard (incl. SIPLUS variants) (All versions). Specially crafted packets sent to TCP port 102 could cause a Denial-of-Service condition on the affected devices. A cold restart might be necessary in order to recover.

AC500 V2 webserver denial of service vulnerability

The vulnerabilities can be exploited to cause the web visualization component of the PLC to stop and not respond, leading to genuine users losing remote visibility of the PLC state. If a user attempts to login to the PLC while this vulnerability is exploited, the PLC will show an error state and refuse connections to Automation Builder. The execution of the PLC application is not affected by this vulnerability. This issue affects ABB AC500 V2 products with onboard Ethernet.

BAB TECHNOLOGIE GmbH eibPort V3 prior to 3.8.3 devices allow denial of service (Uncontrolled Resource Consumption) via requests to the lighttpd component.

kernel: Uncontrolled resource consumption in some Intel(R) Ethernet E810 Adapter drivers

Uncontrolled resource consumption in some Intel(R) Ethernet E810 Adapter drivers for Linux before version 1.0.4 may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable denial of service via local access.

An issue with ARP packets in Arista’s EOS affecting the 7800R3, 7500R3, and 7280R3 series of products may result in issues that cause a kernel crash, followed by a device reload. The affected Arista EOS versions are: 4.24.2.4F and below releases in the 4.24.x train; 4.23.4M and below releases in the 4.23.x train; 4.22.6M and below releases in the 4.22.x train.
