DSA-5685-1 wordpress – security update

Read Time:31 Second

Several security vulnerabilities have been discovered in WordPress, a popular
content management framework, which may lead to exposure of sensitive
information to an unauthorized actor in WordPress or allowing unauthenticated
attackers to discern the email addresses of users who have published public
posts on an affected website via an Oracle style attack.

Furthermore this update resolves a possible cross-site-scripting vulnerability,
a PHP File Upload bypass via the plugin installer and a possible remote code
execution vulnerability which requires an attacker to control all the
properties of a deserialized object though.

Multiple Vulnerabilities in Google Chrome Could Allow for Arbitrary Code Execution

Read Time:26 Second

Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in Google Chrome, which could allow for arbitrary code execution. Successful exploitation 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-6767-1: Linux kernel vulnerabilities

Read Time:1 Minute, 26 Second

Chenyuan Yang discovered that the RDS Protocol implementation in the Linux
kernel contained an out-of-bounds read vulnerability. An attacker could use
this to possibly cause a denial of service (system crash). (CVE-2024-23849)

USN-6766-1: Linux kernel vulnerabilities

Read Time:2 Minute, 44 Second

It was discovered that the Open vSwitch implementation in the Linux kernel
could overflow its stack during recursive action operations under certain
conditions. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service
(system crash). (CVE-2024-1151)

Sander Wiebing, Alvise de Faveri Tron, Herbert Bos, and Cristiano Giuffrida
discovered that the Linux kernel mitigations for the initial Branch History
Injection vulnerability (CVE-2022-0001) were insufficient for Intel
processors. A local attacker could potentially use this to expose sensitive
information. (CVE-2024-2201)
