7) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-42011)

The vulnerability allows a local user to gain access to potentially sensitive information or perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error caused by an invalid array of fixed-length elements where the length of the array is not a multiple of the length of the element. A local user can trigger an out-of-bounds read and gain access to sensitive information.


8) Reachable Assertion (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-42010)

The vulnerability allows a local user to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to a reachable assertion in debug builds caused by a syntactically invalid type signature with incorrectly nested parentheses and curly brackets. A local user can perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


9) Heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-41903)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error during git archive invocation. A remote attacker can trick the victim into using the application against a specially crafted archive, trigger a heap-based buffer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.


10) Resource management error (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-40304)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists in entities.c due to the way libxml2 handles reference cycles. The library does not anticipate that entity content can be allocated from a dict and clears it upon reference cycle detection by setting its first byte to zero. This can lead to memory corruption  issues, such as double free errors and result in a denial of service.


11) Integer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-40303)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to integer overflow in parse.c when processing content when XML_PARSE_HUGE is set. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application, trigger an integer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.


12) Improper Validation of Array Index (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-35737)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error when handling an overly large input passed as argument to a C API. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted input to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


13) Integer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-23521)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise the affected system.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input when parsing the .gitattributes attributes. A remote attacker can trick the victim into cloning a specially crafted repository and execute arbitrary code on the system.


14) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-4139)

The vulnerability allows a local user to escalate privileges on the system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error within the i915 kernel driver on Linux kernel. A local user can trigger memory corruption and execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges.
