Planning Ahead to Prevent Vulnerabilities

The cost to remediate vulnerabilities increases as those vulnerabilities make it further into the development process. If they make it into a final release, those vulnerabilities can leave organizations vulnerable to attacks, costing time and resources to address, as well as causing damage to the...

dpdk: librte_vhost Missing inputs validation in Vhost-crypto

A vulnerability was found in DPDK versions 18.11 and above. The vhost-crypto library code is missing validations for user-supplied values, potentially allowing an information leak through an out-of-bounds memory read...

dpdk: librte_vhost Integer truncation in vhost_user_check_and_alloc_queue_pair()

A memory corruption issue was found in DPDK versions 17.05 and above. This flaw is caused by an integer truncation on the index of a payload. Under certain circumstances, the index a UInt is copied and truncated into a uint16, which can lead to out of bound indexing and possible memory corruption...

dpdk: librte_vhost Integer overflow in vhost_user_set_log_base()

A vulnerability was found in DPDK versions 18.05 and above. A missing check for an integer overflow in vhostusersetlogbase could result in a smaller memory map than requested, possibly allowing memory corruption...

Managing Vulnerabilities Introduced from Open Source Code Libraries

Modern development architectures are commonly based around open source components. Using open source components helps organizations lower their overall development cost while improving the time to market for new applications. Introducing these components however, can lead to serious consequences...

Build support for open source in your organization

Have you ever stared at the same lines of code for hours only to have a coworker identify a bug after just a quick glance? That’s the power of community! Open source software development is guided by the philosophy that a diverse community will produce higher quality code by allowing anyone to...

The vulnerability of the Outside In Filters component of the Oracle Software Development Kit (SDK), as well as the Oracle Text component of the Oracle Database Server database management system, allows a malicious individual to gain access to read, delete, and modify data, or to cause a service failure.

The vulnerability of the Outside In Filters component of the Oracle Software Development Kit SDK and the Oracle Text component of the Oracle Database Server system is related to lack of access control mechanisms. Exploiting this vulnerability could allow an attacker to gain read, delete, and modi...

The vulnerability of the Codehaus development environment of the JBoss Enterprise Application Platform allows a perpetrator to execute arbitrary code.
