Critical Patches Issued for Microsoft Products, June 11, 2024

Read Time:24 Second

Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in Microsoft products, the most severe of which could allow for remote code execution in the context of the logged on user. Depending on the privileges associated with the user, an attacker could then install programs; view, change, or delete data; or create new accounts with full user rights. Users whose accounts are configured to have fewer user rights on the system could be less impacted than those who operate with administrative user rights.

Multiple Vulnerabilities in Mozilla Products Could Allow for Arbitrary Code Execution

Read Time:37 Second

Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in Mozilla products, the most severe of which could allow for arbitrary code execution. Mozilla Firefox is a web browser used to access the Internet. Mozilla Firefox ESR is a version of the web browser intended to be deployed in large organizations. Successful exploitation of the most severe of these vulnerabilities could allow for arbitrary code execution in the context of the logged on user. Depending on the privileges associated with the user, an attacker could then install programs; view, change, or delete data; or create new accounts with full user rights. Users whose accounts are configured to have fewer user rights on the system could be less impacted than those who operate with administrative user rights.

USN-6826-1: mod_jk vulnerability

Read Time:12 Second

Karl von Randow discovered that mod_jk was vulnerable to an authentication
bypass. If the configuration did not provide explicit mounts for all
possible proxied requests, an attacker could possibly use this
vulnerability to bypass security constraints configured in httpd.

USN-6817-2: Linux kernel (OEM) vulnerabilities

Read Time:5 Minute, 52 Second

Ziming Zhang discovered that the DRM driver for VMware Virtual GPU did not
properly handle certain error conditions, leading to a NULL pointer
dereference. A local attacker could possibly trigger this vulnerability to
cause a denial of service. (CVE-2022-38096)

Zheng Wang discovered that the Broadcom FullMAC WLAN driver in the Linux
kernel contained a race condition during device removal, leading to a use-
after-free vulnerability. A physically proximate attacker could possibly
use this to cause a denial of service (system crash). (CVE-2023-47233)

It was discovered that the ATA over Ethernet (AoE) driver in the Linux
kernel contained a race condition, leading to a use-after-free
vulnerability. An attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or
possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2023-6270)

It was discovered that the Atheros 802.11ac wireless driver did not
properly validate certain data structures, leading to a NULL pointer
dereference. An attacker could possibly use this to cause a denial of
service. (CVE-2023-7042)

Gui-Dong Han discovered that the software RAID driver in the Linux kernel
contained a race condition, leading to an integer overflow vulnerability. A
privileged attacker could possibly use this to cause a denial of service
(system crash). (CVE-2024-23307)

Bai Jiaju discovered that the Xceive XC4000 silicon tuner device driver in
the Linux kernel contained a race condition, leading to an integer overflow
vulnerability. An attacker could possibly use this to cause a denial of
service (system crash). (CVE-2024-24861)

Chenyuan Yang discovered that the Unsorted Block Images (UBI) flash device
volume management subsystem did not properly validate logical eraseblock
sizes in certain situations. An attacker could possibly use this to cause a
denial of service (system crash). (CVE-2024-25739)

It was discovered that the MediaTek SoC Gigabit Ethernet driver in the
Linux kernel contained a race condition when stopping the device. A local
attacker could possibly use this to cause a denial of service (device
unavailability). (CVE-2024-27432)

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