**Security fix**: With the Alpha 3480.0.0, Beta 3446.1.0, Stable 3374.2.2 release(s) we ship fixes for the CVEs listed below.
#### Alpha 3380.0.0
* Go
* [CVE-2022-41717](https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2022-41717) CVSSv3 score: 5.3(Medium)
An attacker can cause excessive memory growth in a Go server accepting HTTP/2 requests. HTTP/2 server connections contain a cache of HTTP header keys sent by the client. While the total number of entries in this cache is capped, an attacker sending very large keys can cause the server to allocate approximately 64 MiB per open connection.
* Linux
* [CVE-2022-3424](https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2022-3424) CVSSv3 score: n/a
* [CVE-2022-3534](https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2022-3534) CVSSv3 score: 8(High)
A vulnerability classified as critical has been found in Linux Kernel. Affected is the function btf_dump_name_dups of the file tools/lib/bpf/btf_dump.c of the component libbpf. The manipulation leads to use after free. It is recommended to apply a patch to fix this issue. The identifier of this vulnerability is VDB-211032.
* [CVE-2022-3545](https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2022-3545) CVSSv3 score: 7.8(High)
A vulnerability has been found in Linux Kernel and classified as critical. Affected by this vulnerability is the function area_cache_get of the file drivers/net/ethernet/netronome/nfp/nfpcore/nfp_cppcore.c of the component IPsec. The manipulation leads to use after free. It is recommended to apply a patch to fix this issue. The identifier VDB-211045 was assigned to this vulnerability.
* [CVE-2022-3643](https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2022-3643) CVSSv3 score: 10(Critical)
Guests can trigger NIC interface reset/abort/crash via netback It is possible for a guest to trigger a NIC interface reset/abort/crash in a Linux based network backend by sending certain kinds of packets. It appears to be an (unwritten?) assumption in the rest of the Linux network stack that packet protocol headers are all contained within the linear section of the SKB and some NICs behave badly if this is not the case. This has been reported to occur with Cisco (enic) and Broadcom NetXtrem II BCM5780 (bnx2x) though it may be an issue with other NICs/drivers as well. In case the frontend is sending requests with split headers, netback will forward those violating above mentioned assumption to the networking core, resulting in said misbehavior.
* [CVE-2022-4378](https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2022-4378) CVSSv3 score: n/a
A stack overflow flaw was found in the Linux kernel's SYSCTL subsystem in how a user changes certain kernel parameters and variables. This flaw allows a local user to crash or potentially escalate their privileges on the system.
* [CVE-2022-45869](https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2022-45869) CVSSv3 score: 5.5(Medium)
A race condition in the x86 KVM subsystem in the Linux kernel through 6.1-rc6 allows guest OS users to cause a denial of service (host OS crash or host OS memory corruption) when nested virtualisation and the TDP MMU are enabled.
* [CVE-2022-45934](https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2022-45934) CVSSv3 score: 7.8(High)
An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through 6.0.10. l2cap_config_req in net/bluetooth/l2cap_core.c has an integer wraparound via L2CAP_CONF_REQ packets.
* Python
* [CVE-2015-20107](https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2015-20107) CVSSv3 score: 7.6(High)
In Python (aka CPython) up to 3.10.8, the mailcap module does not add escape characters into commands discovered in the system mailcap file. This may allow attackers to inject shell commands into applications that call mailcap.findmatch with untrusted input (if they lack validation of user-provided filenames or arguments). The fix is also back-ported to 3.7, 3.8, 3.9
* [CVE-2020-10735](https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2020-10735) CVSSv3 score: 7.5(High)
A flaw was found in python. In algorithms with quadratic time complexity using non-binary bases, when using int("text"), a system could take 50ms to parse an int string with 100,000 digits and 5s for 1,000,000 digits (float, decimal, int.from_bytes(), and int() for binary bases 2, 4, 8, 16, and 32 are not affected). The highest threat from this vulnerability is to system availability.
* [CVE-2021-3654](https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2021-3654) CVSSv3 score: 6.1(Medium)
A vulnerability was found in openstack-nova's console proxy, noVNC. By crafting a malicious URL, noVNC could be made to redirect to any desired URL.
* [CVE-2022-37454](https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2022-37454) CVSSv3 score: 9.8(Critical)
The Keccak XKCP SHA-3 reference implementation before fdc6fef has an integer overflow and resultant buffer overflow that allows attackers to execute arbitrary code or eliminate expected cryptographic properties. This occurs in the sponge function interface.
* [CVE-2022-42919](https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2022-42919) CVSSv3 score: 7.8(High)
Python 3.9.x and 3.10.x through 3.10.8 on Linux allows local privilege escalation in a non-default configuration. The Python multiprocessing library, when used with the forkserver start method on Linux, allows pickles to be deserialized from any user in the same machine local network namespace, which in many system configurations means any user on the same machine. Pickles can execute arbitrary code. Thus, this allows for local user privilege escalation to the user that any forkserver process is running as. Setting multiprocessing.util.abstract_sockets_supported to False is a workaround. The forkserver start method for multiprocessing is not the default start method. This issue is Linux specific because only Linux supports abstract namespace sockets. CPython before 3.9 does not make use of Linux abstract namespace sockets by default. Support for users manually specifying an abstract namespace socket was added as a bugfix in 3.7.8 and 3.8.3, but users would need to make specific uncommon API calls in order to do that in CPython before 3.9.
* [CVE-2022-45061](https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2022-45061) CVSSv3 score: 7.5(High)
An issue was discovered in Python before 3.11.1. An unnecessary quadratic algorithm exists in one path when processing some inputs to the IDNA (RFC 3490) decoder, such that a crafted, unreasonably long name being presented to the decoder could lead to a CPU denial of service. Hostnames are often supplied by remote servers that could be controlled by a malicious actor; in such a scenario, they could trigger excessive CPU consumption on the client attempting to make use of an attacker-supplied supposed hostname. For example, the attack payload could be placed in the Location header of an HTTP response with status code 302. A fix is planned in 3.11.1, 3.10.9, 3.9.16, 3.8.16, and 3.7.16.
* containerd
* [CVE-2022-23471](https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2022-23471) CVSSv3 score: 6.5(Medium)
containerd is an open source container runtime. A bug was found in containerd's CRI implementation where a user can exhaust memory on the host. In the CRI stream server, a goroutine is launched to handle terminal resize events if a TTY is requested. If the user's process fails to launch due to, for example, a faulty command, the goroutine will be stuck waiting to send without a receiver, resulting in a memory leak. Kubernetes and crictl can both be configured to use containerd's CRI implementation and the stream server is used for handling container IO. This bug has been fixed in containerd 1.6.12 and 1.5.16. Users should update to these versions to resolve the issue. Users unable to upgrade should ensure that only trusted images and commands are used and that only trusted users have permissions to execute commands in running containers.
* libarchive
* [CVE-2022-36227](https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2022-36227) CVSSv3 score: 9.8(Critical)
In libarchive before 3.6.2, the software does not check for an error after calling calloc function that can return with a NULL pointer if the function fails, which leads to a resultant NULL pointer dereference. NOTE: the discoverer cites this CWE-476 remark but third parties dispute the code-execution impact: "In rare circumstances, when NULL is equivalent to the 0x0 memory address and privileged code can access it, then writing or reading memory is possible, which may lead to code execution."
* libksba
* [CVE-2022-47629](https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2022-47629) CVSSv3 score: 9.8(Critical)
Libksba before 1.6.3 is prone to an integer overflow vulnerability in the CRL signature parser.
* systemd
* [CVE-2022-3821](https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2022-3821) CVSSv3 score: 5.5(Medium)
An off-by-one Error issue was discovered in Systemd in format_timespan() function of time-util.c. An attacker could supply specific values for time and accuracy that leads to buffer overrun in format_timespan(), leading to a Denial of Service.
* [CVE-2022-4415](https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2022-4415) CVSSv3 score: n/a
#### Beta 3446.1.0
* Linux
* [CVE-2022-3424](https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2022-3424) CVSSv3 score: n/a
