kernel: improper initialization of the "flags" member of the new pipe_buffer

A flaw was found in the way the "flags" member of the new pipe buffer structure was lacking proper initialization in copy_page_to_iter_pipe and push_pipe functions in the Linux kernel and could thus contain stale values. An unprivileged local user could use this flaw to write to pages in the page cache backed by read only files and as such escalate their privileges on the system.

A Server-side request forgery (SSRF) vulnerability has been identified in the SMA1000 Appliance Work Place interface, which in specific conditions could potentially enable a remote unauthenticated attacker to cause the appliance to make requests to an unintended location.

Pre-authentication path traversal vulnerability in SMA1000 firmware version 12.4.2, which allows an unauthenticated attacker to access arbitrary files and directories stored outside the web root directory.

kernel: size_t-to-int conversion vulnerability in the filesystem layer

fs/seq_file.c in the Linux kernel 3.16 through 5.13.x before 5.13.4 does not properly restrict seq buffer allocations, leading to an integer overflow, an Out-of-bounds Write, and escalation to root by an unprivileged user, aka CID-8cae8cd89f05.

A vulnerability in the SonicWall SMA1000 HTTP Extraweb server allows an unauthenticated remote attacker to cause HTTP server crash which leads to Denial of Service. This vulnerability affected SMA1000 Version 12.1.0-06411 and earlier.
