urllib3 is an HTTP client library for Python. From 2.6.0 to before 2.7.0, urllib3 could decompress the whole response instead of the requested portion (1) during the second HTTPResponse.read(amt=N) call when the response was decompressed using the official Brotli library or (2) when HTTPResponse.drain_conn() was called after the response had been read and decompressed partially (compression algorithm did not matter here). These issues could cause urllib3 to fully decode a small amount of highly compressed data in a single operation. This could result in excessive resource consumption (high CPU usage and massive memory allocation for the decompressed data) on the client side. This vulnerability is fixed in 2.7.0.

The brace-expansion library generates arbitrary strings containing a common prefix and suffix. From 5.0.0 to before 5.0.6, the max option was being applied too late. When expanding a single large numeric range like {1..10000000}, the sequence generation loop generates all 10 million intermediate elements before the max limit is applied With max=10, the output is correctly limited to 10 items, but the process still allocates ~505 MB and spends ~800ms building the full intermediate array. This vulnerability is fixed in 5.0.6.

A vulnerability was found in llvm llvm-project up to 22.1.6. This affects the function llvm::StringMap::insert in the library /lib/IR/ValueSymbolTable.cpp of the component ValueSymbolTable Module. The manipulation results in stack-based buffer overflow. Attacking locally is a requirement. The exploit has been made public and could be used. The presence of this vulnerability remains uncertain at this time. The LLVM project explains, that the reported behavior is outside its documented security scope and therefore not considered a security vulnerability.

A vulnerability was determined in llvm llvm-project up to 22.1.6. This impacts the function GCRelocateInst::getBasePtr in the library llvm/lib/IR/IntrinsicInst.cpp of the component Bitcode File Handler. This manipulation causes heap-based buffer overflow. It is possible to launch the attack on the local host. The exploit has been publicly disclosed and may be utilized. There are still doubts about whether this vulnerability truly exists. The LLVM project explains, that the reported behavior is outside its documented security scope and therefore not considered a security vulnerability.
