EUVD-2026-49773

This CNA information record relates to multiple CVEs; the text explains which aspects/vulnerabilities correspond to which CVE. The directory and Rock Ridge / SUSP walk in libfsimage's iso9660 driver derives several lengths directly from attacker-controlled on-disk fields without validating them:...

CVE-2026-42494

The CVE-2026-42494 issue affects the libfsimage iso9660 driver where on-disk fields controlled by an attacker are used to derive several lengths without validation. The directory loop assumes a valid record length, making it vulnerable to malformed directory records. Additional problems include p...

Suricata 8.0.x < 8.0.6 Multiple Vulnerabilities

The version of OISF Suricata installed on the remote host is 8.x prior to 8.0.6. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities, including: - Suricata could be crashed or made to enter an infinite loop when processing crafted network traffic, leading to denial of service. CVE-2026-63446 -...

CVE-2026-16481

A Server-Side Request Forgery SSRF and credential exfiltration vulnerability exists in the cloud-healthcare-fhir-fetch-page tool of googleapis/mcp-toolbox. The tool takes an unvalidated pageURL parameter from the client and issues an HTTP GET request to it using an authenticated client. The...

CVE-2026-64442

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's rtl8723bs Wi-Fi driver. Insufficient boundary checks in the information element IE parsing loops within the issueassocreq and joincmdhdl functions allow a remote attacker to cause an out-of-bounds read. By sending specially crafted, truncated IE data from a...

CVE-2026-64442

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: staging: rtl8723bs: fix OOB reads in IE loops in issueassocreq and joincmdhdl Two IE parsing loops are missing the header bounds checks before they dereference pIE-length: - issueassocreq walks pmlmeinfo-network.ies to build the...

pypdf: Possible infinite loop for not terminated inline images (ASCII85 and ASCIIHex filter)

Impact An attacker who uses this vulnerability can craft a PDF which leads to an infinite loop. This requires parsing the content stream of a page with a not terminated inline image, as done when extracting the page text for example. It only affects the ASCII85 and ASCIIHex filters. Patches This...

CVE-2026-13074

Affected software: MongoDB server. Vulnerable component: the awaitable hello command in exhaust mode. Root cause: handling of a specific parameter combination leads to a response loop that bypasses normal throttling. Impact: unauthenticated remote clients can cause excessive CPU consumption and d...
