contiki-ng version 4 contains a Buffer Overflow vulnerability in AQL (Antelope Query Language) database engine that can result in Attacker can perform Remote Code Execution on device using Contiki-NG operating system. This attack appear to be exploitable via Attacker must be able to run malicious AQL code (e.g. via SQL-like Injection attack).

An issue was discovered in the MQTT server in Contiki-NG before 4.2. The function parse_publish_vhdr() that parses MQTT PUBLISH messages with a variable length header uses memcpy to input data into a fixed size buffer. The allocated buffer can fit only MQTT_MAX_TOPIC_LENGTH (default 64) bytes, and a length check is missing. This could lead to Remote Code Execution via a stack-smashing attack (overwriting the function return address). Contiki-NG does not separate the MQTT server from other servers and the OS modules, so access to all memory regions is possible.

An issue was discovered in Contiki-NG through 4.1. There is a buffer overflow in lvm_set_type in os/storage/antelope/lvm.c while parsing AQL (lvm_set_op, lvm_set_relation, lvm_set_operand).

IBM DB2 for Linux, UNIX and Windows 9.2, 10.1, 10.5, and 11.1 (includes DB2 Connect Server) is vulnerable to a buffer overflow that could allow a local user to overwrite DB2 files or cause a denial of service. IBM X-Force ID: 120668.

ASUS P453UJ contains the Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer vulnerability. With a general user’s permission, local attackers can modify the BIOS by replacing or filling in the content of the designated Memory DataBuffer, which causing a failure of integrity verification and further resulting in a failure to boot.

Stack-based buffer overflow in the brcmf_cfg80211_start_ap function in drivers/net/wireless/broadcom/brcm80211/brcmfmac/cfg80211.c in the Linux kernel before 4.7.5 allows local users to cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a long SSID Information Element in a command to a Netlink socket.

Dell PowerEdge Server BIOS and Dell Precision Workstation 7910 and 7920 Rack BIOS contain an Improper SMM communication buffer verification vulnerability. A Local High Privileged attacker could potentially exploit this vulnerability leading to arbitrary writes or denial of service.
