Insufficient input validation in NetScaler ADC and NetScaler Gateway when configured as a SAML IDP leading to memory overread
FreeRDP is a free implementation of the Remote Desktop Protocol. Prior to 3.20.1, a heap out-of-bounds read occurs in the smartcard SetAttrib path when cbAttrLen does not match the actual NDR buffer length. This vulnerability is fixed in 3.20.1.
In Area9 Rhapsode 1.47.3, an authenticated attacker can exploit the operation, url, and filename parameters via POST request to read arbitrary files from the server filesystem. Fixed in 1.47.4 (#7254) and further versions.
An out-of-bounds read was addressed with improved bounds checking. This issue is fixed in iOS 18.7.2 and iPadOS 18.7.2, macOS Sequoia 15.7.2, macOS Tahoe 26.1. An app may be able to cause a denial-of-service.
In NetXDuo version before 6.4.4, a networking support module for Eclipse Foundation ThreadX, in the DHCPV6 client there was an unchecked index extracting the server DUID from the server reply. With a crafted packet, an attacker could cause an out of memory read.
Similar SeverityHIGH
Improper link resolution before file access ('link following') in Microsoft Defender allows an authorized attacker to elevate privileges locally.
Improper neutralization of input during web page generation ('cross-site scripting') in Microsoft Exchange Server allows an unauthorized attacker to perform spoofing over a network.
An Improper Input Validation in Ivanti EPMM before versions 12.6.1.1, 12.7.0.1, and 12.8.0.1 allows a remotely authenticated user with administrative access to achieve remote code execution.
OpenClaw before 2026.4.22 contains a server-side request forgery vulnerability in the Zalo plugin's sendPhoto function that fails to validate outbound photo URLs through the SSRF guard. Attackers can bypass SSRF protection by providing malicious photo URLs to the Zalo Bot API, enabling unauthorized access to internal resources.
OpenClaw before 2026.4.22 contains an exec allowlist analysis vulnerability allowing shell expansion hiding in unquoted heredoc bodies. Attackers can bypass allowlist validation by embedding shell expansion tokens in heredoc bodies to execute unapproved commands at runtime.
