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

The vulnerability exists due to a NULL pointer dereference error in vmwgfx driver in drivers/gpu/vmxgfx/vmxgfx_execbuf.c in GPU component of Linux kernel with device file '/dev/dri/renderD128 (or Dxxx)'. A local user can perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


10) Integer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-33631)

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

The vulnerability exists due to integer overflow when mounting a malicious filesystem. A local user can mount a specially crafted filesystem, trigger an integer overflow and execute arbitrary code.


11) Information disclosure (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-32681)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to requests has been leaking Proxy-Authorization headers to destination servers when redirected to an HTTPS endpoint. A remote attacker can gain unauthorized access to sensitive information on the system.


12) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-39615)

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

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary condition within the xmlSAX2StartElement() function in /libxml2/SAX2.c. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted XML input to the application, trigger an out-of-bounds read error and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
