Security Bulletin
This security bulletin contains information about 5 vulnerabilities.
1) Out-of-bounds read
EUVDB-ID: #VU89688
Risk: Low
CVSSv4.0: 0.4 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:A/VC:L/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear]
CVE-ID: CVE-2023-22656
CWE-ID:
CWE-125 - Out-of-bounds read
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a local user to gain access to potentially sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary condition. A local user can trigger an out-of-bounds read error and read contents of memory on the system, leading to privilege escalation.
MitigationUpdate the affected package libmfx to the latest version.
