Vulnerability from github – Published: 2022-05-24 17:18 – Updated: 2022-09-10 00:00Using a specially-crafted message, an attacker may potentially cause a BIND server to reach an inconsistent state if the attacker knows (or successfully guesses) the name of a TSIG key used by the server. Since BIND, by default, configures a local session key even on servers whose configuration does not otherwise make use of it, almost all current BIND servers are vulnerable. In releases of BIND dating from March 2018 and after, an assertion check in tsig.c detects this inconsistent state and deliberately exits. Prior to the introduction of the check the server would continue operating in an inconsistent state, with potentially harmful results.

GHSA-Q6XR-Q445-2XXH
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-03-25 12:30 – Updated: 2026-04-24 18:30In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tracing: Fix WARN_ON in tracing_buffers_mmap_close
When a process forks, the child process copies the parent's VMAs but the user_mapped reference count is not incremented. As a result, when both the parent and child processes exit, tracing_buffers_mmap_close() is called twice. On the second call, user_mapped is already 0, causing the function to return -ENODEV and triggering a WARN_ON.
Normally, this isn't an issue as the memory is mapped with VM_DONTCOPY set. But this is only a hint, and the application can call madvise(MADVISE_DOFORK) which resets the VM_DONTCOPY flag. When the application does that, it can trigger this issue on fork.
Fix it by incrementing the user_mapped reference count without re-mapping the pages in the VMA's open callback.
