USN-5832-1: Linux kernel (Raspberry Pi) vulnerabilities Kyle Zeng discovered that the sysctl implementation in the Linux kernel contained a stack-based buffer overflow. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash) or execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2022-4378) Tamás Koczka discovered that the Bluetooth L2CAP handshake implementation in the Linux kernel contained multiple use-after-free vulnerabilities. A physically proximate attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2022-42896) It was discovered that the Xen netback driver in the Linux kernel did not properly handle packets structured in certain ways. An attacker in a guest VM could possibly use this to cause a denial of service (host NIC availability). (CVE-2022-3643) It was discovered that an integer overflow vulnerability existed in the Bluetooth subsystem in the Linux kernel. A physically proximate [ more… ]

USN-5811-3: Sudo vulnerability USN-5811-1 fixed a vulnerability in Sudo. This update provides the corresponding update for Ubuntu 14.04 ESM. Original advisory details: Matthieu Barjole and Victor Cutillas discovered that Sudo incorrectly handled user-specified editors when using the sudoedit command. A local attacker that has permission to use the sudoedit command could possibly use this issue to edit arbitrary files. (CVE-2023-22809) Source: USN-5811-3: Sudo vulnerability

USN-5823-3: MySQL regression USN-5823-1 fixed vulnerabilities in MySQL. Unfortunately, 8.0.32 introduced a regression in MySQL Router preventing connections from PyMySQL. This update reverts most of the changes in MySQL Router to 8.0.31 until a proper fix can be found. We apologize for the inconvenience. Original advisory details: Multiple security issues were discovered in MySQL and this update includes new upstream MySQL versions to fix these issues. MySQL has been updated to 8.0.32 in Ubuntu 20.04 LTS, Ubuntu 22.04 LTS, and Ubuntu 22.10. Ubuntu 18.04 LTS has been updated to MySQL 5.7.41. In addition to security fixes, the updated packages contain bug fixes, new features, and possibly incompatible changes.

USN-5830-1: Linux kernel vulnerabilities It was discovered that the NFSD implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly handle some RPC messages, leading to a buffer overflow. A remote attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2022-43945) Tamás Koczka discovered that the Bluetooth L2CAP handshake implementation in the Linux kernel contained multiple use-after-free vulnerabilities.
