CVE-2024-11187 1 Redhat 8 Enterprise Linux, Openshift, Openshift Ai and 5 more 2026-04-15 7.5 High
It is possible to construct a zone such that some queries to it will generate responses containing numerous records in the Additional section. An attacker sending many such queries can cause either the authoritative server itself or an independent resolver to use disproportionate resources processing the queries. Zones will usually need to have been deliberately crafted to attack this exposure. This issue affects BIND 9 versions 9.11.0 through 9.11.37, 9.16.0 through 9.16.50, 9.18.0 through 9.18.32, 9.20.0 through 9.20.4, 9.21.0 through 9.21.3, 9.11.3-S1 through 9.11.37-S1, 9.16.8-S1 through 9.16.50-S1, and 9.18.11-S1 through 9.18.32-S1.

But Jesper Dangaard Brouer <jbrouer@redhat.com> noted that after introducing the xdp_init_buff() which all XDP driver use - it's safe to remove this check. The original intend was to catch cases where XDP drivers have not been updated to use xdp.frame_sz, but that is not longer a concern (since xdp_init_buff). Running the initial syzkaller repro it was discovered that the contiguous physical memory allocation is used for both xdp paths in tun_get_user(), e.g. tun_build_skb() and tun_alloc_skb(). It was also stated by Jesper Dangaard Brouer <jbrouer@redhat.com> that XDP can work on higher order pages, as long as this is contiguous physical memory (e.g. a page).
CVE-2023-54121 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2026-04-15 5.5 Medium
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: btrfs: fix incorrect splitting in btrfs_drop_extent_map_range In production we were seeing a variety of WARN_ON()'s in the extent_map code, specifically in btrfs_drop_extent_map_range() when we have to call add_extent_mapping() for our second split. Consider the following extent map layout PINNED [0 16K) [32K, 48K) and then we call btrfs_drop_extent_map_range for [0, 36K), with skip_pinned == true. The initial loop will have start = 0 end = 36K len = 36K we will find the [0, 16k) extent, but since we are pinned we will skip it, which has this code start = em_end; if (end != (u64)-1) len = start + len - em_end; em_end here is 16K, so now the values are start = 16K len = 16K + 36K - 16K = 36K len should instead be 20K. This is a problem when we find the next extent at [32K, 48K), we need to split this extent to leave [36K, 48k), however the code for the split looks like this split->start = start + len; split->len = em_end - (start + len); In this case we have em_end = 48K split->start = 16K + 36K // this should be 16K + 20K split->len = 48K - (16K + 36K) // this overflows as 16K + 36K is 52K and now we have an invalid extent_map in the tree that potentially overlaps other entries in the extent map. Even in the non-overlapping case we will have split->start set improperly, which will cause problems with any block related calculations. We don't actually need len in this loop, we can simply use end as our end point, and only adjust start up when we find a pinned extent we need to skip. Adjust the logic to do this, which keeps us from inserting an invalid extent map. We only skip_pinned in the relocation case, so this is relatively rare, except in the case where you are running relocation a lot, which can happen with auto relocation on.
CVE-2023-54007 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2026-04-15 5.5 Medium
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: vmci_host: fix a race condition in vmci_host_poll() causing GPF During fuzzing, a general protection fault is observed in vmci_host_poll(). general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address 0xdffffc0000000019: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP KASAN KASAN: null-ptr-deref in range [0x00000000000000c8-0x00000000000000cf] RIP: 0010:__lock_acquire+0xf3/0x5e00 kernel/locking/lockdep.c:4926 <- omitting registers -> Call Trace: <TASK> lock_acquire+0x1a4/0x4a0 kernel/locking/lockdep.c:5672 __raw_spin_lock_irqsave include/linux/spinlock_api_smp.h:110 [inline] _raw_spin_lock_irqsave+0xb3/0x100 kernel/locking/spinlock.c:162 add_wait_queue+0x3d/0x260 kernel/sched/wait.c:22 poll_wait include/linux/poll.h:49 [inline] vmci_host_poll+0xf8/0x2b0 drivers/misc/vmw_vmci/vmci_host.c:174 vfs_poll include/linux/poll.h:88 [inline] do_pollfd fs/select.c:873 [inline] do_poll fs/select.c:921 [inline] do_sys_poll+0xc7c/0x1aa0 fs/select.c:1015 __do_sys_ppoll fs/select.c:1121 [inline] __se_sys_ppoll+0x2cc/0x330 fs/select.c:1101 do_syscall_x64 arch/x86/entry/common.c:51 [inline] do_syscall_64+0x4e/0xa0 arch/x86/entry/common.c:82 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x46/0xb0 Example thread interleaving that causes the general protection fault is as follows: CPU1 (vmci_host_poll) CPU2 (vmci_host_do_init_context) ----- ----- // Read uninitialized context context = vmci_host_dev->context; // Initialize context vmci_host_dev->context = vmci_ctx_create(); vmci_host_dev->ct_type = VMCIOBJ_CONTEXT; if (vmci_host_dev->ct_type == VMCIOBJ_CONTEXT) { // Dereferencing the wrong pointer poll_wait(..., &context->host_context); } In this scenario, vmci_host_poll() reads vmci_host_dev->context first, and then reads vmci_host_dev->ct_type to check that vmci_host_dev->context is initialized. However, since these two reads are not atomically executed, there is a chance of a race condition as described above. To fix this race condition, read vmci_host_dev->context after checking the value of vmci_host_dev->ct_type so that vmci_host_poll() always reads an initialized context.
CVE-2024-9501 2026-04-15 9.8 Critical
The Wp Social Login and Register Social Counter plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authentication bypass in all versions up to, and including, 3.0.7. This is due to insufficient verification on the user being returned by the social login token. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to log in as any existing user on the site, such as an administrator, if they have access to the email and the user does not have an already-existing account for the service returning the token.
CVE-2022-50770 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2026-04-15 N/A
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ocfs2: fix memory leak in ocfs2_mount_volume() There is a memory leak reported by kmemleak: unreferenced object 0xffff88810cc65e60 (size 32): comm "mount.ocfs2", pid 23753, jiffies 4302528942 (age 34735.105s) hex dump (first 32 bytes): 10 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 ................ 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ................ backtrace: [<ffffffff8170f73d>] __kmalloc+0x4d/0x150 [<ffffffffa0ac3f51>] ocfs2_compute_replay_slots+0x121/0x330 [ocfs2] [<ffffffffa0b65165>] ocfs2_check_volume+0x485/0x900 [ocfs2] [<ffffffffa0b68129>] ocfs2_mount_volume.isra.0+0x1e9/0x650 [ocfs2] [<ffffffffa0b7160b>] ocfs2_fill_super+0xe0b/0x1740 [ocfs2] [<ffffffff818e1fe2>] mount_bdev+0x312/0x400 [<ffffffff819a086d>] legacy_get_tree+0xed/0x1d0 [<ffffffff818de82d>] vfs_get_tree+0x7d/0x230 [<ffffffff81957f92>] path_mount+0xd62/0x1760 [<ffffffff81958a5a>] do_mount+0xca/0xe0 [<ffffffff81958d3c>] __x64_sys_mount+0x12c/0x1a0 [<ffffffff82f26f15>] do_syscall_64+0x35/0x80 [<ffffffff8300006a>] entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x46/0xb0 This call stack is related to two problems. Firstly, the ocfs2 super uses "replay_map" to trace online/offline slots, in order to recover offline slots during recovery and mount. But when ocfs2_truncate_log_init() returns an error in ocfs2_mount_volume(), the memory of "replay_map" will not be freed in error handling path. Secondly, the memory of "replay_map" will not be freed if d_make_root() returns an error in ocfs2_fill_super(). But the memory of "replay_map" will be freed normally when completing recovery and mount in ocfs2_complete_mount_recovery(). Fix the first problem by adding error handling path to free "replay_map" when ocfs2_truncate_log_init() fails. And fix the second problem by calling ocfs2_free_replay_slots(osb) in the error handling path "out_dismount". In addition, since ocfs2_free_replay_slots() is static, it is necessary to remove its static attribute and declare it in header file.

Therefore, fix this problem by adding a gfp_t argument for convert_context()/sidtab_convert_params.func and pass GFP_KERNEL/_ATOMIC properly in individual callers.

CVE-2024-9407 1 Redhat 3 Enterprise Linux, Openshift, Rhel Eus 2026-04-15 4.7 Medium
A vulnerability exists in the bind-propagation option of the Dockerfile RUN --mount instruction. The system does not properly validate the input passed to this option, allowing users to pass arbitrary parameters to the mount instruction. This issue can be exploited to mount sensitive directories from the host into a container during the build process and, in some cases, modify the contents of those mounted files. Even if SELinux is used, this vulnerability can bypass its protection by allowing the source directory to be relabeled to give the container access to host files.
