elflint.c in elfutils 0.168 does not validate the number of sections and the number of segments, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via a crafted ELF file.

tif_read.c in LibTIFF 4.0.7 does not ensure that tif_rawdata is properly initialized, which might allow remote attackers to obtain sensitive information from process memory via a crafted image.

OpenIDM through 4.0.0 and 4.5.0 is vulnerable to persistent cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks within the Admin UI, as demonstrated by a crafted Managed Object Name.

OpenIDM through 4.0.0 and 4.5.0 is vulnerable to reflected cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks within the Admin UI, as demonstrated by the _sortKeys parameter to the authzRoles script under managed/user/.

In OpenIDM through 4.0.0 before 4.5.0, the info endpoint may leak sensitive information upon a request by the “anonymous” user, as demonstrated by responses with a 200 HTTP status code and a JSON object containing IP address strings. This is related to a missing access-control check in bin/defaults/script/info/login.js.
