USN-6999-2: Linux kernel vulnerabilities

Read Time:5 Minute, 9 Second

Chenyuan Yang discovered that the CEC driver driver in the Linux kernel
contained a use-after-free vulnerability. A local attacker could use this
to cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary
code. (CVE-2024-23848)

It was discovered that the JFS file system contained an out-of-bounds read
vulnerability when printing xattr debug information. A local attacker could
use this to cause a denial of service (system crash). (CVE-2024-40902)

Several security issues were discovered in the Linux kernel.
An attacker could possibly use these to compromise the system.

Read Time:55 Second

USN-6992-1 fixed vulnerabilities in Firefox. The update introduced
several minor regressions. This update fixes the problem.

We apologize for the inconvenience.

Original advisory details:

Multiple security issues were discovered in Firefox. If a user were
tricked into opening a specially crafted website, an attacker could
potentially exploit these to cause a denial of service, obtain sensitive
information across domains, or execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2024-8382,
CVE-2024-8383, CVE-2024-8386, CVE-2024-8387, CVE-2024-8389)

Nils Bars discovered that Firefox contained a type confusion vulnerability
when performing certain property name lookups. An attacker could
potentially exploit this issue to cause a denial of service, or execute
arbitrary code. (CVE-2024-8381)

It was discovered that Firefox did not properly manage memory during
garbage collection. An attacker could potentially exploit this issue to
cause a denial of service, or execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2024-8384)

Seunghyun Lee discovered that Firefox contained a type confusion
vulnerability when handling certain ArrayTypes. An attacker could
potentially exploit this issue to cause a denial of service, or execute
arbitrary code. (CVE-2024-8385)
