IBM Aspera Desktop App versions 1.0.5 through 1.0.19 contain a vulnerability that allows arbitrary code execution by loading DLL files at start-up. This issue is related to the use of inherently dangerous functions (CWE-242). The vulnerability has a high severity with a CVSS score of 7.3. No official patch or remediation guidance has been provided yet.

Use of inherently dangerous function PQfn(..., result_is_int=0, ...) in PostgreSQL libpq lo_export(), lo_read(), lo_lseek64(), and lo_tell64() functions allows the server superuser to overwrite a client stack buffer with an arbitrarily-large response. Like gets(), PQfn(..., result_is_int=0, ...) stores arbitrary-length, server-determined data into a buffer of unspecified size. Because both the \lo_export command in psql and pg_dump call lo_read(), the server superuser can overwrite pg_dump or psql stack memory. Versions before PostgreSQL 18.4, 17.10, 16.14, 15.18, and 14.23 are affected.

IBM Cognos Command Center 10.2.4.1 and 10.2.5 could allow a local user to execute arbitrary code on the system due to the use of unsafe use of the BinaryFormatter function.

A post-auth SQL injection vulnerability in the Trend Micro Endpoint Encryption PolicyServer could allow an attacker to escalate privileges on affected installations. Please note: an attacker must first obtain the ability to execute low-privileged code on the target system to exploit this vulnerability.
