USN-5463-1: NTFS-3G vulnerabilities

Read Time:49 Second

It was discovered that NTFS-3G incorrectly handled the ntfsck tool. If a
user or automated system were tricked into using ntfsck on a specially
crafted disk image, a remote attacker could possibly use this issue to
execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2021-46790)

Roman Fiedler discovered that NTFS-3G incorrectly handled certain return
codes. A local attacker could possibly use this issue to intercept
protocol traffic between FUSE and the kernel. (CVE-2022-30783)

It was discovered that NTFS-3G incorrectly handled certain NTFS disk
images. If a user or automated system were tricked into mounting a
specially crafted disk image, a remote attacker could use this issue to
cause a denial of service, or possibly execute arbitrary code.
(CVE-2022-30784, CVE-2022-30786, CVE-2022-30788, CVE-2022-30789)

Roman Fiedler discovered that NTFS-3G incorrectly handled certain file
handles. A local attacker could possibly use this issue to read and write

USN-5460-1: Vim vulnerabilities

Read Time:2 Minute, 5 Second

It was discovered that Vim was incorrectly processing Vim buffers.
An attacker could possibly use this issue to perform illegal memory
access and expose sensitive information. (CVE-2022-0554)

It was discovered that Vim was not properly performing bounds checks
for column numbers when replacing tabs with spaces or spaces with
tabs, which could cause a heap buffer overflow. An attacker could
possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service or execute
arbitrary code. (CVE-2022-0572)

It was discovered that Vim was not properly performing validation of
data that contained special multi-byte characters, which could cause
an out-of-bounds read. An attacker could possibly use this issue to
cause a denial of service. (CVE-2022-0685)

when executing spell suggestion commands, which could cause a heap
buffer overflow. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a
denial of service or execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2022-0943)

It was discovered that Vim was incorrectly performing bounds checks
when processing invalid commands with composing characters in Ex
mode, which could cause a buffer overflow. An attacker could possibly
use this issue to cause a denial of service or execute arbitrary
code. (CVE-2022-1616)
