| XS::Parse::Infix versions from 0.40 through 0.49 for Perl treat a number as an array reference.
The wrapper function XS::Parse::Infix generates for a list-associative infix operator checks whether arguments are array references, but it tests using SvRV() rather than SvROK(). SvRV() reads a union slot that only holds a referent once SvROK(sv) is true, so the guard never validates that it is a reference. For an IV or NV that slot holds the number itself, SvRV() returns the caller's value and SvTYPE() dereferences it at offset 12. This will generally result in a segmentation fault.
An application that hands the wrapper a list built from decoded input (for example, from JSON) lets whoever supplies a number in that list choose the address that the interpreter dereferences.
An ordinary string's byte 12 is rarely SVt_PVAV so the guard croaks by luck, but an attacker-crafted string carrying 0x0b there passes, and the buffer is then used as an AV head, with AvARRAY taken from bytes 16-23 and its entries pushed onto the Perl stack as live SVs.
A simple proof-of-concept uses the zip operator:
use Syntax::Operator::Zip 'zip';
my @args = ([1], 2);
zip(@args); |

| Out-of-bounds read in Microsoft Standard XPS allows an authorized attacker to disclose information locally. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: Require MEM_PERCPU for percpu kptr stores
map_kptr_match_type() treats perm_flags as the set of register type flags
that a kptr field permits. Adding MEM_PERCPU to that set for
BPF_KPTR_PERCPU does not require the source register to carry it, however.
The subset test consequently accepts both a plain bpf_obj_new() allocation
and a referenced kernel pointer into a __percpu_kptr map field.
Loads from the field are always marked MEM_PERCPU. Consumers then treat the
stored value as the cookie returned by bpf_percpu_obj_new(): per-CPU pointer
helpers relocate it, and map teardown selects the per-CPU free path. A plain
allocation can therefore provide an arbitrary kernel read/write, while a
kernel pointer can be relocated into an invalid address or sent through a
missing destructor.
Require the source MEM_PERCPU flag to match the destination field kind.
This preserves valid bpf_percpu_obj_new() stores and rejects both the
program-BTF and kernel-BTF variants. |

| ip-address is a library for parsing and manipulating IPv4 and IPv6 addresses in JavaScript. Prior to 10.7.1, the isInSubnet and isHostInSubnet methods in src/common.ts compare masked binary strings without validating that both operands use the same IP family. A cross-family containment check whose leading address bits match makes the masked strings compare equal even though IPv4 and IPv6 do not share an address space. An allowlist or denylist decision can therefore classify an address outside the intended range as contained. This issue is fixed in version 10.7.1. |
| Suricata is a network Intrusion Detection System, Intrusion Prevention System and Network Security Monitoring engine. Prior to versions 7.0.16 and 8.0.5, Suricata's IP defragmentation tracker lookup did not verify that an existing tracker used the same IP address family as the packet being processed. Under crafted fragmented IPv4/IPv6 traffic, an IPv6 fragment could be associated with an IPv4 defragmentation tracker. This can lead to a remote packet-triggered crash and denial of service when Suricata performs the relevant defragmentation. Versions 7.0.16 and 8.0.5 contain a fix. As a workaround, if using Suricata as an IDS with AF_PACKET, enabling AF_PACKET's `defrag` option may prevent Suricata from seeing such fragmented packets. |
| libsndfile 1.2.2 contains a misaligned memory access issue in psf_binheader_readf() while parsing WAV fmt chunks. A specially crafted WAV file can cause the function to cast an unaligned destination address to unsigned int * and perform a 4-byte store. This results in undefined behavior leading to denial of service. |
| In Wakapi before 2.17.6, the user caching service allows a lookup to be resolved in an unintended lookup context, leading to account takeover. |
| pgcollection is an open source extension to PostgreSQL. A type confusion issue in AWS pgcollection 2.0.0 through 2.1.1 might allow an authenticated remote user to execute arbitrary code as the postgres operating system user via crafted SQL statements that rely on mismatched type metadata in collection value retrieval and array conversion functions.
To remediate this issue, users should upgrade to version 2.1.2 or later. |

| A maliciously constructed mail header could lead to multiple fields being parsed as one, or potential memory safety violations. This vulnerability was fixed in Thunderbird 156, Thunderbird 140.16, and Thunderbird 153.3. |
| Access of resource using incompatible type ('type confusion') in Windows Core Messaging allows an authorized attacker to elevate privileges locally. |
| Suricata before 8.0.7 has a DoH2 type confusion that can cause an invalid free, because cleanup code for the HTTP2 state is executed even though the actual state is HTTP1 (when there is a DoH2 request with an HTTP1 to HTTP2 upgrade). This requires app-layer.protocols.doh2 to be enabled, which is the default in 8.x versions. |
