CVE-2023-0494 – X.Org Server DeepCopyPointerClasses Use-After-Free Local Privilege Escalation Vulnerability
https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2023-0494
A vulnerability was found in X.Org. This issue occurs due to a dangling pointer in DeepCopyPointerClasses that can be exploited by ProcXkbSetDeviceInfo() and ProcXkbGetDeviceInfo() to read and write into freed memory. This can lead to local privilege elevation on systems where the X server runs privileged and remote code execution for ssh X forwarding sessions. This vulnerability allows local attackers to escalate privileges on affected installations of X.Org Server. An attacker must first obtain the ability to execute low-privileged code on the target system in order to exploit this vulnerability. The specific flaw exists within the DeepCopyPointerClasses function. • https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2165995 https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/xserver/-/commit/0ba6d8c37071131a49790243cdac55392ecf71ec https://lists.x.org/archives/xorg-announce/2023-February/003320.html https://security.gentoo.org/glsa/202305-30 https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2023-0494 • CWE-416: Use After Free •
CVE-2021-3696 – grub2: Crafted PNG image may lead to out-of-bound write during huffman table handling
https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2021-3696
A heap out-of-bounds write may heppen during the handling of Huffman tables in the PNG reader. This may lead to data corruption in the heap space. Confidentiality, Integrity and Availablity impact may be considered Low as it's very complex to an attacker control the encoding and positioning of corrupted Huffman entries to achieve results such as arbitrary code execution and/or secure boot circumvention. This flaw affects grub2 versions prior grub-2.12. Puede producirse una escritura fuera de límites de la pila durante el manejo de las tablas Huffman en el lector PNG. • https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1991686 https://security.gentoo.org/glsa/202209-12 https://security.netapp.com/advisory/ntap-20220930-0001 https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2021-3696 • CWE-787: Out-of-bounds Write •
CVE-2021-3697 – grub2: Crafted JPEG image can lead to buffer underflow write in the heap
https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2021-3697
A crafted JPEG image may lead the JPEG reader to underflow its data pointer, allowing user-controlled data to be written in heap. To a successful to be performed the attacker needs to perform some triage over the heap layout and craft an image with a malicious format and payload. This vulnerability can lead to data corruption and eventual code execution or secure boot circumvention. This flaw affects grub2 versions prior grub-2.12. Una imagen JPEG diseñada puede conllevar que el lector de JPEG desborde su puntero de datos, permitiendo que los datos controlados por el usuario sean escritos en la pila. • https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1991687 https://security.gentoo.org/glsa/202209-12 https://security.netapp.com/advisory/ntap-20220930-0001 https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2021-3697 • CWE-787: Out-of-bounds Write •
CVE-2021-3695 – grub2: Crafted PNG grayscale images may lead to out-of-bounds write in heap
https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2021-3695
A crafted 16-bit grayscale PNG image may lead to a out-of-bounds write in the heap area. An attacker may take advantage of that to cause heap data corruption or eventually arbitrary code execution and circumvent secure boot protections. This issue has a high complexity to be exploited as an attacker needs to perform some triage over the heap layout to achieve signifcant results, also the values written into the memory are repeated three times in a row making difficult to produce valid payloads. This flaw affects grub2 versions prior grub-2.12. Una imagen PNG en escala de grises de 16 bits diseñada puede conllevar a una escritura fuera de límites en el área de la pila. • https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1991685 https://security.gentoo.org/glsa/202209-12 https://security.netapp.com/advisory/ntap-20220930-0001 https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2021-3695 • CWE-787: Out-of-bounds Write •
CVE-2021-4034 – Red Hat Polkit Out-of-Bounds Read and Write Vulnerability
https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2021-4034
A local privilege escalation vulnerability was found on polkit's pkexec utility. The pkexec application is a setuid tool designed to allow unprivileged users to run commands as privileged users according predefined policies. The current version of pkexec doesn't handle the calling parameters count correctly and ends trying to execute environment variables as commands. An attacker can leverage this by crafting environment variables in such a way it'll induce pkexec to execute arbitrary code. When successfully executed the attack can cause a local privilege escalation given unprivileged users administrative rights on the target machine. • https://github.com/dzonerzy/poc-cve-2021-4034 https://github.com/arthepsy/CVE-2021-4034 https://github.com/berdav/CVE-2021-4034 https://www.exploit-db.com/exploits/50689 https://github.com/PwnFunction/CVE-2021-4034 https://github.com/joeammond/CVE-2021-4034 https://github.com/nikaiw/CVE-2021-4034 https://github.com/ryaagard/CVE-2021-4034 https://github.com/Rvn0xsy/CVE-2021-4034 https://github.com/Ayrx/CVE-2021-4034 https://github.com/zhzyker/CVE-2021-4034& • CWE-20: Improper Input Validation CWE-125: Out-of-bounds Read CWE-787: Out-of-bounds Write •
