- 7.5 High severity
Red Hat Hardened Images: Access of Resource Using Incompatible Type
A flaw was found in libxml2. This vulnerability occurs when the library processes a specially crafted XML Schema Definition (XSD) validated document that includes an internal entity reference. An attacker could exploit this by providing a malicious document, l
- 9.8 Critical severity
AIX: Process Control
IBM AIX 7.2, and 7.3 and IBM VIOS 3.1, and 4.1 nimsh service SSL/TLS implementations could allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary commands due to improper process controls. This addresses additional attack vectors for a vulnerability that was previously
- 9.8 Critical severity
AIX: Process Control
IBM AIX 7.2, and 7.3 and IBM VIOS 3.1, and 4.1 NIM server (formerly known as NIM master) service (nimesis) could allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary commands due to improper process controls. This addresses additional attack vectors for a vulnerabilit
- 9.1 Critical severity
AIX: Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory
IBM AIX 7.2, and 7.3 and IBM VIOS 3.1, and 4.1 NIM server (formerly known as NIM master) service (nimesis) could allow a remote attacker to traverse directories on the system. An attacker could send a specially crafted URL request to write arbitrary files on t
- 8.1 High severity
AIX: Insufficiently Protected Credentials
IBM AIX 7.2, and 7.3 and IBM VIOS 3.1, and 4.1 stores NIM private keys used in NIM environments in an insecure way which is susceptible to unauthorized access by an attacker using man in the middle techniques.
- 7.3 High severity
Xwayland: Use After Free
A flaw was discovered in the X.Org X server’s X Keyboard (Xkb) extension when handling client resource cleanup. The software frees certain data structures without properly detaching related resources, leading to a use-after-free condition. This can cause memor
- 7.3 High severity
Xwayland: Integer Overflow or Wraparound
A flaw was identified in the X.Org X server’s X Keyboard (Xkb) extension where improper bounds checking in the XkbSetCompatMap() function can cause an unsigned short overflow. If an attacker sends specially crafted input data, the value calculation may overflo
- 8.4 High severity
AIX: Relative Path Traversal
IBM AIX 7.3 and IBM VIOS 4.1.1 Perl implementation could allow a non-privileged local user to exploit a vulnerability to execute arbitrary code due to improper neutralization of pathname input.
- 8.4 High severity
AIX: Execution with Unnecessary Privileges
IBM AIX could 7.2, 7.3, VIOS 3.1, and VIOS 4.1 allow a non-privileged local user to exploit a vulnerability in the invscout command to execute arbitrary commands. IBM X-Force ID: 283985.
- 7.8 High severity
AIX: Incorrect Privilege Assignment
IBM AIX's Unix domain (AIX 7.2, 7.3, VIOS 3.1, and VIOS 4.1) datagram socket implementation could potentially expose applications using Unix domain datagram sockets with SO_PEERID operation and may lead to privilege escalation. IBM X-Force ID: 284903.
- 8.4 High severity
AIX: Process Control
IBM AIX 7.3, VIOS 4.1's Perl implementation could allow a non-privileged local user to exploit a vulnerability to execute arbitrary commands. IBM X-Force ID: 281320.
- 7.8 High severity
AIX: Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer
