Zhuowei Zhang discovered a bug in the EAP authentication client code of
strongSwan, an IKE/IPsec suite, that may allow to bypass the client and in some
scenarios even the server authentication, or could lead to a denial-of-service
attack.
The Qualys Research Labs discovered two vulnerabilities in util-linux’s
libmount. These flaws allow an unprivileged user to unmount other users’
filesystems that are either world-writable themselves or mounted in a
world-writable directory
(CVE-2021-3996), or to unmount FUSE filesystems that belong to certain other
users
(CVE-2021-3995).
Multiple security issues were discovered in Chromium, which could result
in the execution of arbitrary code, denial of service or information
disclosure.
A backdoor has been discovered in WordPress AccessPress plugins and themes, which could allow an attacker access to a targeted website. AccessPress plugins and themes are used to provide website functionality and design options to website administrators. Successful exploitation of this backdoor could allow an attacker to redirect users to malicious sites as well as access to the vulnerable website.
Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in Cisco Products, the most severe of which could allow for arbitrary code execution. Successful exploitation of the most severe of these vulnerabilities could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to execute code on the affected systems. Depending on the privileges associated with the targeted user, an attacker could then install programs; view, change, or delete data; or create new accounts with full user rights. Users configured to have fewer privileges on the system could be less impacted than those who operate with elevated privileges.
Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in Google Chrome, the most severe of which could allow for arbitrary code execution. Google Chrome is a web browser used to access the Internet. Successful exploitation of the most severe of these vulnerabilities could allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code in the context of the browser. Depending on the privileges associated with the application, an attacker could view, change, or delete data. If this application has been configured to have fewer user rights on the system, exploitation of the most severe of these vulnerabilities could have less impact than if it was configured with administrative rights.
jQuery UI is a third-party library used by Drupal. This library was previously thought to be end-of-life.
Late in 2021, jQuery UI announced that they would be continuing development, and released a jQuery UI 1.13.0 version. In addition to the issue covered by SA-CORE-2022-001, further security vulnerabilities disclosed in jQuery UI 1.13.0 may affect Drupal 7 only:
CVE-2021-41182: XSS in the altField option of the Datepicker widget
CVE-2021-41183: XSS in *Text options of the Datepicker widget
Furthermore, other vulnerabilities listed below were previously unaddressed in the version of jQuery UI included in Drupal 7 or in the jQuery Update module:
CVE-2016-7103: XSS in closeText option of Dialog
CVE-2010-5312: XSS in the title option of Dialog (applicable only to the jQuery UI version included in D7 core)
It is possible that these vulnerabilities are exploitable via contributed Drupal modules or custom code. As a precaution, this Drupal security release applies the fix for the above cross-site scripting issues, without making other changes to the jQuery UI version that is included in Drupal.
This advisory is not covered by Drupal Steward.
These backport fixes in D7 have also been tested with the version of jQuery UI provided by the most recent releases of the jQuery Update module (jQuery UI 1.10.2) and the fixes confirmed. Therefore, there is no accompanying security release for jQuery Update.
However, in early 2022 the currently supported release of jQuery Update (7.x-2.7 from 2015) will be deprecated and replaced by a new release from the 7.x-4.x branch. The stable release from that branch will then be the only release considered by Drupal Security Team when new jQuery security issues arise.
Please check the jQuery Update project page for more details, and for announcements when the changes are made to supported releases.
Install the latest version:
If you are using Drupal 7, update to Drupal 7.86
jQuery UI is a third-party library used by Drupal. This library was previously thought to be end-of-life.
Late in 2021, jQuery UI announced that they would be continuing development, and released a jQuery UI 1.13.0 version. As part of this 1.13.0 update, they disclosed the following security issue that may affect Drupal 9 and 7:
CVE-2021-41184: XSS in the `of` option of the `.position()` util
It is possible that this vulnerability is exploitable with some Drupal modules. As a precaution, this Drupal security release applies the fix for the above cross-site description issue, without making any of the other changes to the jQuery version that is included in Drupal.
This advisory is not covered by Drupal Steward.
Install the latest version:
If you are using Drupal 9.3, update to Drupal 9.3.3.
If you are using Drupal 9.2, update to Drupal 9.2.11.
If you are using Drupal 7, update to Drupal 7.86.
All versions of Drupal 8 and 9 prior to 9.2.x are end-of-life and do not receive security coverage. Note that Drupal 8 has reached its end of life.
A vulnerability has been discovered in Zoho Desktop Central and Desktop Central MSP that could allow for authentication bypass. Zoho Desktop Central and Desktop Central MSP are unified endpoint management (UEM) solution that helps in managing servers, laptops, desktops, smartphones, and tablets from a central location. It allows admins to deploy patches and software over the network and troubleshoot them remotely. Successful exploitation of this vulnerability could allow for a remote user to perform unauthorized actions on a server including access to unauthorized data or the ability the write an arbitrary zip file.
Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in Oracle products, which could allow for remote code execution
