A sensitive data leakage vulnerability was identified in scikit-learn's TfidfVectorizer, specifically in versions up to and including 1.4.1.post1, which was fixed in version 1.5.0. The vulnerability arises from the unexpected storage of all tokens present in the training data within the `stop_words_` attribute, rather than only storing the subset
When starting the cupsd server with a Listen configuration item pointing to a symbolic link, the cupsd process can be caused to perform an arbitrary chmod of the provided argument, providing world-writable access to the target.
iPerf3 before 3.17, when used with OpenSSL before 3.2.0 as a server with RSA authentication, allows a timing side channel in RSA decryption operations. This side channel could be sufficient for an attacker to recover credential plaintext. It requires the attacker to send a large number of messages for decryption, as described in "Everlasting ROBOT:
A vulnerability was found in libndp. This flaw allows a local malicious user to cause a buffer overflow in NetworkManager, triggered by sending a malformed IPv6 router advertisement packet. This issue occurred as libndp was not correctly validating the route length information.
Atril Document Viewer is the default document reader of the MATE desktop environment for Linux. A path traversal and arbitrary file write vulnerability exists in versions of Atril prior to 1.26.2. This vulnerability is capable of writing arbitrary files anywhere on the filesystem to which the user opening a crafted document has access. The
A vulnerability was found in GNU Nano that allows a possible privilege escalation through an insecure temporary file. If Nano is killed while editing, a file it saves to an emergency file with the permissions of the running user provides a window of opportunity for attackers to escalate privileges through a malicious symlink. (CVE-2024-5742)
Use-after-free in networking. (CVE-2024-5702) Use-after-free in JavaScript object transplant. (CVE-2024-5688) External protocol handlers leaked by timing attack. (CVE-2024-5690) Sandboxed iframes were able to bypass sandbox restrictions to open a new window. (CVE-2024-5691)
There exists integer overflows in libvpx in versions prior to 1.14.1. Calling vpx_img_alloc() with a large value of the d_w, d_h, or align parameter may result in integer overflows in the calculations of buffer sizes and offsets and some fields of the returned vpx_image_t struct may be invalid. Calling vpx_img_wrap() with a large value of the d_w, d_h,
Integer overflow in libaom internal function img_alloc_helper can lead to heap buffer overflow. This function can be reached via 3 callers: * Calling aom_img_alloc() with a large value of the d_w, d_h, or align parameter may result in integer overflows in the calculations of buffer sizes and offsets and some fields of the returned aom_image_t struct may
The archive/zip package's handling of certain types of invalid zip files differs from the behavior of most zip implementations. This misalignment could be exploited to create an zip file with contents that vary depending on the implementation reading the file. The archive/zip package now rejects files containing these errors. (CVE-2024-24789)
The updated packages fix a security vulnerability and other issues. References: - https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=33232 - https://webkitgtk.org/security/WSA-2024-0003.html
The updated package fixes security vulnerabilities: Hardware logic contains race conditions in some Intel(R) Processors may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable partial information disclosure via local access. (CVE-2023-45733) Sequence of processor instructions leads to unexpected behavior in
Memory handling issue in editcap could cause denial of service via crafted capture file. (CVE-2024-4853) MONGO and ZigBee TLV dissector infinite loops in Wireshark 4.2.0 to 4.2.4, 4.0.0 to 4.0.14, and 3.6.0 to 3.6.22 allow denial of service via packet injection or crafted capture file. (CVE-2024-4854)

The updated packages fix security vulnerabilities: Excessive time spent checking DSA keys and parameters. (CVE-2024-4603) Use After Free with SSL_free_buffers. (CVE-2024-4741) References:
It was discovered that Jinja2 incorrectly handled certain HTML attributes that were accepted by the xmlattr filter. An attacker could use this issue to inject arbitrary HTML attribute keys and values to potentially execute a cross-site scripting (XSS) attack.
An excessive memory use issue (CWE-770) exists in Email-MIME, before version 1.954, which can cause denial of service when parsing multipart MIME messages. The patch set (from 2020 and 2024) limits excessive depth and the total number of parts. (CVE-2024-4140)
