The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error within the BZ2_decompress() function in decompress.c. A remote attacker can create a specially crafted archive, trick the victim into opening it using the affected library, trigger out-of-bounds write and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass authentication process.

The vulnerability exists due to an error in pam_access module where certain rules in its configuration file are mistakenly treated as hostnames. A remote attacker can bypass authentication process and gain unauthorized access to the system.


3) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-52531)

CWE-ID: CWE-119 - Memory corruption

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:A/VC:N/VI:N/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear
