Debian 10829 Published by

A batch of security updates for Debian has been released addressing vulnerabilities found in the OpenSSL toolkit used for secure communication over the Internet. Researchers identified multiple critical flaws in ImageMagick ranging from symlink races to potential arbitrary code execution within the graphics processing software. Administrators must prioritize upgrading snapd immediately since a local privilege escalation vulnerability allows attackers to gain unauthorized access without detection on the host system. Finally, a patch fixes evolution-data-server so Flatpak apps cannot delete arbitrary host files using D-Bus access.

Aisle Research found multiple vulnerabilites in OpenSSL, a Secure Socket Layer
toolkit providing the SSL and TLS cryptographic protocols for secure
communication over the Internet.

CVE-2025-68160
Petr Simecek (Aisle Research) and Stanislav Fort (Aisle Research) found
writing large, newline-free data into a BIO chain using the line-buffering
filter where the next BIO performs short writes can trigger a heap-based
out-of-bounds write. This out-of-bounds write can cause memory corruption
which typically results in a crash, leading to Denial of Service for an
application.

CVE-2025-69418
Stanislav Fort (Aisle Research) found using the low-level OCB API directly
with AES-NI or other hardware-accelerated code paths, inputs whose length
is not a multiple of 16 bytes can leave the final partial block unencrypted
and unauthenticated. The trailing 1-15 bytes of a message may be exposed in
cleartext on encryption and are not covered by the authentication tag,
allowing an attacker to read or tamper with those bytes without detection.

CVE-2025-69419
Stanislav Fort (Aisle Research) found a maliciously crafted PKCS#12 file
with a BMPString (UTF-16BE) can lead to out-of-bounds write causing a
memory corruption which can have various consequences including a Denial of
Service.

CVE-2025-69420
Luigino Camastra (Aisle Research) found a type confusion vulnerability
exists in the TimeStamp Response verification code, leading to an invalid
or NULL pointer dereference when processing a malformed TimeStamp Response
file. The result is a possible Denial of Service.

CVE-2025-69421
Luigino Camastra (Aisle Research) found out processing a malformed PKCS#12
file can trigger a NULL pointer dereference in the
PKCS12_item_decrypt_d2i_ex() function that can trigger a crash which leads
to Denial of Service for an application processing PKCS#12 files.

CVE-2026-22795
Luigino Camastra (Aisle Research) found that an application processing a
malformed PKCS#12 file can be caused to dereference an invalid or NULL
pointer on memory read, resulting in a Denial of Service.

CVE-2026-22796
Luigino Camastra (Aisle Research) found that an application performing
signature verification of PKCS#7 data or calling directly the
PKCS7_digest_from_attributes() function can be caused to dereference an
invalid or NULL pointer when reading, resulting in a Denial of Service.

Package : snapd
CVE ID : CVE-2026-3888
Debian Bug : 1131120

The Qualys Threat Research Unit (TRU) discovered a local privilege
escalation vulnerability in snapd, a daemon and tooling that enable snap
packages. Details can be found in the Qualys advisory at
https://cdn2.qualys.com/advisory/2026/03/17/snap-confine-systemd-tmpfiles.txt

For the oldstable distribution (bookworm), this problem has been fixed
in version 2.57.6-1+deb12u1.

For the stable distribution (trixie), this problem has been fixed in
version 2.68.3-3+deb13u1.

We recommend that you upgrade your snapd packages.

For the detailed security status of snapd please refer to its security
tracker page at:

- -------------------------------------------------------------------------

Package : evolution-data-server
Version : 3.38.3-1+deb11u3
CVE ID : CVE-2026-2604

An issue has been found in evolution-data-server, an evolution database
backend server.
A Flatpak application with D-Bus access to the addressbook service can
delete arbitrary files on the host, potentially including Flatpak override
files. This fix canonicalizes the file path before performing a prefix
comparison, ensuring that ../ sequences are resolved.

For Debian 11 bullseye, this problem has been fixed in version
3.38.3-1+deb11u3.

We recommend that you upgrade your evolution-data-server packages.

For the detailed security status of evolution-data-server please refer to
its security tracker page at:
https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/evolution-data-server
