golang: archive/tar: Unbounded allocation when parsing GNU sparse map

A flaw was found in the archive/tar package in the Go standard library. tar.Reader does not set a maximum size on the number of sparse region data blocks in GNU tar pax 1.0 sparse files. A specially crafted tar archive with a pax header indicating a big number of sparse regions can cause a Go...

kernel: ext4: fix use-after-free in ext4_orphan_cleanup

A use-after-free vulnerability was found in the ext4 filesystem's orphan inode cleanup routine in the Linux kernel. When ext4inodeattachjinode fails with -ENOMEM during orphan cleanup at mount time, the error is not properly propagated. The inode is freed via iput, but the orphan list still...

macOS 14.x < 14.8.4 Multiple Vulnerabilities (126350)

libsoup: Signed to Unsigned Conversion Error Leading to Stack-Based Buffer Overflow in libsoup NTLM Authentication

A flaw was identified in the NTLM authentication handling of the libsoup HTTP library, used by GNOME and other applications for network communication. When processing extremely long passwords, an internal size calculation can overflow due to improper use of signed integers. This results in...

SUSE CVE-2026-23052

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ftrace: Do not over-allocate ftrace memory The pgremaining calculation in ftraceprocesslocs assumes that ENTRIESPERPAGE multiplied by 2^order equals the actual capacity of the allocated page group. However, ENTRIESPERPAGE is...

ROS-20260205-73-0023

A vulnerability in the genirq/msi component of the Linux kernel is related to the allocation of unlimited memory. Exploitation of the vulnerability could allow an attacker to gain access to sensitive data, compromise its integrity, and cause denial of service...

CVE-2026-23052

CVE-2026-23052 pertains to the Linux kernel ftrace memory handling. The issue arises in page-group capacity calculations: ENTRIES_PER_PAGE is derived as PAGE_SIZE / ENTRY_SIZE, and when PAGE_SIZE is not a multiple of ENTRY_SIZE, high-order allocations (e.g., 256 pages) have more capacity than 256...
