Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in Foxit PDF Reader and Editor, the most severe of which could result in arbitrary code execution. Foxit PDF Reader is a multilingual freemium PDF tool that can create, view, edit, digitally sign, and print PDF files. 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.
CVE-2024-41708: Ada Web Server did not use a cryptographically secure pseudorandom number generator.
AWS.Utils.Random and AWS.Utils.Random_String used Ada.Numerics.Discrete_Random, which is not designed to be cryptographically secure. Random_String also introduced a bias in the generated pseudorandom string values, where the values “1” and “2” had a much higher frequency than any other character.
The internal state of the Mersenne Twister PRNG could be revealed, and lead to a session hijacking attack.
This update fixes the problem by using /dev/urandom instead of Discrete_Random.
