Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-10-05 21:31 – Updated: 2026-10-05 21:31In handle_le_monitor_device_event of msft.cc, there is a possible control-flow hijack in the privileged bluetooth process due to an uninitialized pointer dereference. This could lead to local escalation of privilege with no additional execution privileges needed. User interaction is not needed for exploitation.

GHSA-PJ68-M269-RX3H
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2022-05-13 01:34 – Updated: 2022-05-13 01:34This 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 handling of FlateDecode streams. The issue results from the lack of proper initialization of a pointer prior to accessing it. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code under the context of the current process. Was ZDI-CAN-5763.
