It was discovered that Drupal incorrectly sanitized uploaded filenames. A
remote attacker could possibly use this issue to execute arbitrary code.
(CVE-2020-13671)
It was discovered that Drupal incorrectly sanitized archived filenames. A
remote attacker could possibly use this issue to overwrite arbitrary files,
or execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2020-28948, CVE-2020-28949)
This vulnerability allows local attackers to disclose sensitive information on affected installations of Linux Kernel. An attacker must first obtain the ability to execute low-privileged code on the target system in order to exploit this vulnerability. The ZDI has assigned a CVSS rating of 6.5.
Multiple security issues were discovered in Python, a high-level,
interactive, object-oriented language:
CVE-2024-0397
A race condition in the ssl module was found when accessing
CA certificates.
CVE-2024-4032
The ipaddress module contained incorrect information whether
some ipv4 and ipv6 address ranges are designated as globally
reachable or private.
CVE-2024-8088
Incorrect handling of path names in the zipfile module could
result in an infinite loop when processing a zip archive
(resulting in denial of service)
It was discovered that a race condition existed in the Bluetooth subsystem
in the Linux kernel, leading to a null pointer dereference vulnerability. A
privileged local attacker could use this to possibly cause a denial of
service (system crash). (CVE-2024-24860)
Several security issues were discovered in the Linux kernel.
An attacker could possibly use these to compromise the system.

There’s no difference between sending the password or Hash(password)
at the client. It is similar to (but weaker than) HTTP digest
authentication.
There’s nothing to see here.
