VLAI
Details

This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on vulnerable installations of Foxit Reader 9.0.1.1049. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a malicious page or open a malicious file. The specific flaw exists within the getPageNthWordQuads method. By performing actions in JavaScript, an attacker can trigger a type confusion condition. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code under the context of the current process. Was ZDI-CAN-6022.

GHSA-46C5-PFJ8-FV65

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2022-03-18 22:36 – Updated: 2025-12-26 17:29
VLAI
Summary
Improperly checked metadata on tools/armour itemstacks received from the client
Details

Impact

Due to a workaround applied in 1.13, an attacker may send a negative damage/meta value in a tool or armour item's NBT, which TypeConverter then blindly uses as if it was valid without being checked.

When this invalid metadata value reaches Durable->setDamage(), an exception is thrown because the metadata is not within the expected range for damage values.

This can be reproduced with either a too-large damage value, or a negative one.

Patches

c8e1cfcbee4945fd4b63d2a7e96025c59744d4f1

Workarounds

In theory this can be checked by plugins using a custom TypeConverter, but this is likely to be very cumbersome.

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2022-02-17 00:00 – Updated: 2022-07-02 00:00
VLAI
Details

A flaw was found in mbsync before v1.3.6 and v1.4.2, where an unchecked pointer cast allows a malicious or compromised server to write an arbitrary integer value past the end of a heap-allocated structure by issuing an unexpected APPENDUID response. This could be plausibly exploited for remote code execution on the client.
