7 security issues in trixie high

There are 7 open security issues in trixie.

7 important issues:
  • CVE-2022-28391: BusyBox through 1.35.0 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code if netstat is used to print a DNS PTR record's value to a VT compatible terminal. Alternatively, the attacker could choose to change the terminal's colors.
  • CVE-2022-48174: There is a stack overflow vulnerability in ash.c:6030 in busybox before 1.35. In the environment of Internet of Vehicles, this vulnerability can be executed from command to arbitrary code execution.
  • CVE-2023-39810: An issue in the CPIO command of Busybox v1.33.2 allows attackers to execute a directory traversal.
  • CVE-2023-42363: A use-after-free vulnerability was discovered in xasprintf function in xfuncs_printf.c:344 in BusyBox v.1.36.1.
  • CVE-2023-42364: A use-after-free vulnerability in BusyBox v.1.36.1 allows attackers to cause a denial of service via a crafted awk pattern in the awk.c evaluate function.
  • CVE-2023-42365: A use-after-free vulnerability was discovered in BusyBox v.1.36.1 via a crafted awk pattern in the awk.c copyvar function.
  • CVE-2023-42366: A heap-buffer-overflow was discovered in BusyBox v.1.36.1 in the next_token function at awk.c:1159.
