Re: [Hyperbola] Current security-threads overview

CVE-2021-41160: In affected versions a malicious server might trigger out of bound writes in a connected client. Connections using GDI or SurfaceCommands to send graphics updates to the client might send `0` width/height or out of bound rectangles to trigger out of bound writes. With `0` width or heigth the memory allocation will be `0` but the missing bounds checks allow writing to the pointer at this (not allocated) region.

CVE-2022-24883: Prior to version 2.7.0, server side authentication against a `SAM` file might be successful for invalid credentials if the server has configured an invalid `SAM` file path. FreeRDP based clients are not affected. RDP server implementations using FreeRDP to authenticate against a `SAM` file are affected. Version 2.7.0 contains a fix for this issue. As a workaround, use custom authentication via `HashCallback` and/or ensure the `SAM` database path configured is valid and the application has file handles left.

Conclusion: We have prepared already security-patches for our version of freerdp.

Re: [Hyperbola] Current security-threads overview

CVE-2022-49043: xmlXIncludeAddNode in xinclude.c in libxml2 before 2.11.0 has a use-after-free.

CVE-2023-39615: Xmlsoft Libxml2 v2.11.0 was discovered to contain an out-of-bounds read via the xmlSAX2StartElement() function at /libxml2/SAX2.c. This vulnerability allows attackers to cause a Denial of Service (DoS) via supplying a crafted XML file. NOTE: the vendor's position is that the product does not support the legacy SAX1 interface with custom callbacks; there is a crash even without crafted input.

CVE-2023-45322: libxml2 through 2.11.5 has a use-after-free that can only occur after a certain memory allocation fails. This occurs in xmlUnlinkNode in tree.c. NOTE: the vendor's position is "I don't think these issues are critical enough to warrant a CVE ID ... because an attacker typically can't control when memory allocations fail."

CVE-2024-25062: An issue was discovered in libxml2 before 2.11.7 and 2.12.x before 2.12.5. When using the XML Reader interface with DTD validation and XInclude expansion enabled, processing crafted XML documents can lead to an xmlValidatePopElement use-after-free.

Conclusion: We have prepared already security-patches for our version of libxml2.

CVE-2025-3155: A flaw was found in Yelp. The Gnome user help application allows the help document to execute arbitrary scripts. This vulnerability allows malicious users to input help documents, which may exfiltrate user files to an external environment.

Conclusion: We have prepared already security-patches for our version of yelp.

Re: [Hyperbola] Current security-threads overview

CVE-2025-32464: HAProxy 2.2 through 3.1.6, in certain uncommon configurations, has a sample_conv_regsub heap-based buffer overflow because of mishandling of the replacement of multiple short patterns with a longer one.

Conclusion: We have prepared already security-patches for our version of haproxy.

Re: [Hyperbola] Current security-threads overview

CVE-2025-32414: In libxml2 before 2.13.8 and 2.14.x before 2.14.2, out-of-bounds memory access can occur in the Python API (Python bindings) because of an incorrect return value. This occurs in xmlPythonFileRead and xmlPythonFileReadRaw because of a difference between bytes and characters.

CVE-2025-32415:  In libxml2 before 2.13.8 and 2.14.x before 2.14.2, xmlSchemaIDCFillNodeTables in xmlschemas.c has a heap-based buffer under-read. To exploit this, a crafted XML document must be validated against an XML schema with certain identity constraints, or a crafted XML schema must be used.

Conclusion: We have prepared security-patches for our version of libxml2.

Re: [Hyperbola] Current security-threads overview

CVE-2025-2760: GIMP XWD File Parsing Integer Overflow Remote Code Execution Vulnerability. This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected installations of GIMP. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a malicious page or open a malicious file. The specific flaw exists within the parsing of XWD files. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of user-supplied data, which can result in an integer overflow before allocating a buffer. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code in the context of the current process. Was ZDI-CAN-25082.

CVE-2025-2761:  GIMP FLI File Parsing Out-Of-Bounds Write Remote Code Execution Vulnerability. This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected installations of GIMP. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a malicious page or open a malicious file. The specific flaw exists within the parsing of FLI files. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of user-supplied data, which can result in a write past the end of an allocated buffer. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code in the context of the current process. Was ZDI-CAN-25100.

Conclusion: We have prepared security-patches for our version of gimp. Furthermore we will remove the following plugins:

file-dds
file-ico
file-fax3g
file-psd

Sorry for everyone using PSD-files for import / export. But we do not plan with those file-formats as gimp has sufficient others. ico-files can be converted and created on different ways (graphicsmagick). So there is no loss in any way, just a win in security-fixes.

Re: [Hyperbola] Current security-threads overview

CVE-2025-23016:  FastCGI fcgi2 (aka fcgi) 2.x through 2.4.4 has an integer overflow (and resultant heap-based buffer overflow) via crafted nameLen or valueLen values in data to the IPC socket. This occurs in ReadParams in fcgiapp.c.

Conclusion: We have prepared and backported security-patches for our version of fcgi.
