The updates are in

Buffer Overflow vulnerability in Tenda AX1803 v1.0.0.1_2994 and earlier allows attackers to run arbitrary code via /goform/SetOnlineDevName.

Multiple buffer copy without checking size of input ('classic buffer overflow') vulnerabilities [CWE-120] in FortiADC version 7.2.0 and before 7.1.2 & FortiDDoS-F version 6.5.0 and before 6.4.1 allows a privileged attacker to execute arbitrary code or commands via specifically crafted CLI requests.

A heap-based buffer overflow vulnerability exists in the HTTP Server form boundary functionality of Weston Embedded uC-HTTP v3.01.01. A specially crafted network packet can lead to code execution. An attacker can send a malicious packet to trigger this vulnerability.

A heap-based buffer overflow vulnerability exists in the HTTP Server functionality of Weston Embedded uC-HTTP v3.01.01. A specially crafted set of network packets can lead to arbitrary code execution. An attacker can send a malicious packet to trigger this vulnerability.

Zephyr RTOS versions 3.5.0 and below suffer from a multitude of buffer overflow vulnerabilities.

Buffer Overflow vulnerability in free5gc 3.3.0, UPF 1.2.0, and SMF 1.2.0 allows attackers to cause a denial of service via crafted PFCP messages.

Ubuntu Security Notice 6466-1 - Hyunwoo Kim discovered that the DVB Core driver in the Linux kernel contained a race condition during device removal, leading to a use-after- free vulnerability. A physically proximate attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code. Hyunwoo Kim discovered that the Technotrend/Hauppauge USB DEC driver in the Linux kernel did not properly handle device removal events. A physically proximate attacker could use this to cause a denial of service.

PX4 autopilot is a flight control solution for drones. In affected versions a global buffer overflow vulnerability exists in the CrsfParser_TryParseCrsfPacket function in /src/drivers/rc/crsf_rc/CrsfParser.cpp:298 due to the invalid size check. A malicious user may create an RC packet remotely and that packet goes into the device where the _rcs_buf reads. The global buffer overflow vulnerability will be triggered and the drone can behave unexpectedly. This issue has been addressed in version 1.14.0. Users are advised to upgrade. There are no known workarounds for this vulnerability.

An attacker with local access to a system (either through a disk or external drive) can present a modified XFS partition to grub-legacy in such a way to exploit a memory corruption in grub’s XFS file system implementation.
