Ubuntu 24.04.5 LTS release patches security bugs across ten flavors

Canonical ships Ubuntu 24.04.5 LTS point release bundling security fixes into fresh install media for desktop, server and nine other flavors.

Canonical released Ubuntu 24.04.5 LTS, a point release for the Noble Numbat series that folds accumulated security corrections and high-severity bug fixes into new installation media. Nine flavors including Kubuntu, Xubuntu, Ubuntu MATE, Ubuntu Studio and Edubuntu also moved to 24.04.5. Existing 22.04 LTS users receive the fixes through the automatic upgrade path at no cost. The release notes name no CVEs or bug IDs, and support timelines still count from the original 24.04 launch date (five years for Desktop/Server/Cloud/Core, three for flavors, extendable with Expanded Security Maintenance).

If the values in these two fields differ, an out-of-bounds access can occur.

  • Socket versions before 2.041 for Perl have an out-of-bounds heap read.
    Socket versions before 2.041 for Perl have an out-of-bounds heap read. In Socket.xs, pack_ip_mreq_source() checks the length of its source argument before the argument is read, so the check tests the byte length carried over from the preceding multiaddr argument instead. Both addresses occupy a 4-byte field, so a valid multiaddr lets a source of any length pass the check, and the source is then copied into the 4-byte imr_sourceaddr field with a fixed-size copy. A source shorter than 4 bytes is not rejected, and the copy reads up to 3 bytes past the end of its buffer. Calling…

    KissFFT before commit 8a8e66e contains an integer overflow vulnerability in the kiss_fftndr_alloc() function in kiss_fftndr.c where the allocation size calculation dimOther*(dimReal+2)*sizeof(kiss_fft_scalar) overflows signed 32-bit integer arithmetic before being widened to size_t, causing malloc() to allocate an undersized buffer. Attackers can trigger heap buffer overflow by providing crafted dimensions that cause the multiplication to exceed INT_MAX, allowing writes beyond the allocated buffer region when kiss_fftndr() processes the data.
  • KissFFT versions prior to the fix commit 1b083165 contain an integer overflow in kiss_fft_alloc() in kiss_fft.c on platforms where size_t is 32-bit.
    KissFFT versions prior to the fix commit 1b083165 contain an integer overflow in kiss_fft_alloc() in kiss_fft.c on platforms where size_t is 32-bit. The nfft parameter is not validated before being used in a size calculation (sizeof(kiss_fft_cpx) * (nfft - 1)), which can wrap to a small value when nfft is large. As a result, malloc() allocates an undersized buffer and the subsequent twiddle-factor initialization loop writes nfft elements, causing a heap buffer overflow. This vulnerability only affects 32-bit architectures.

  • Buffer overflow in glibc strfmon() width padding affects glibc 2.38–2.44
    The strfmon() and strfmon_l() functions in the GNU C Library (glibc) versions 2.38 through 2.44 can write past the end of a caller-supplied buffer when a monetary conversion uses right-justified width padding. The overflow occurs when the destination buffer is large enough for the padding itself but too small for an internal memmove operation, with the field width or format string potentially attacker-influenced or a fixed susceptible pattern in the calling code. Successful exploitation yields out-of-bounds memory writes in the context of the calling application, plausibly causing crashes (denial of service) or, depending on heap layout, code execution. Any Linux application linked against glibc 2.38–2.44 that calls strfmon/strfmon_l with such patterns is affected, though no network-facing application impact was known at publication. No public proof of concept or in-the-wild exploitation has been reported, and the issue is not on the CISA KEV list.

    GNU gzip contains a global buffer overflow vulnerability in the LZH decompression logic caused by improper reuse of shared global state between different decompression formats within a single execution. GNU gzip maintains a global array that is shared across the LZ77, LZW, and LZH decompression routines and is not reinitialized between files processed in the same invocation. By decompressing a specially crafted LZW file followed by a specially crafted LZH file in a single gzip -d command, an attacker can poison the shared global state and subsequently trigger an out‑of‑bounds read in the LZH…

    Perl versions through 5.45.1 have out-of-bounds heap reads and writes during regular expression matching via an undersized superlinear cache in S_regmatch. The regex engine's superlinear cache holds one bit per subject position for each participating WHILEM node, so the bit count is the subject length plus one times the number of nodes. Nothing checks that product for positive overflow of the signed 32-bit count: a 286331153 byte subject matched against a pattern with 15 participating nodes stores the count as 14, leaving a two byte cache.

    GNU gzip contains a vulnerability in the gzexe utility related to insecure temporary file handling. When the mktemp utility is not available in the user’s PATH, gzexe falls back to constructing a temporary file path based solely on the process ID (PID). This predictable filename is created without exclusive access or existence checks. A local attacker can pre‑create the predicted temporary file path as a symbolic link pointing to an arbitrary file writable by the victim. When gzexe runs, it follows the symlink and overwrites the target file, resulting in a time‑of‑check to time‑of‑use…
