When asked to use a `.netrc` file for credentials **and** to follow HTTP
redirects, curl could leak the password used for the first host to the
followed-to host under certain circumstances.
This flaw only manifests itself if the netrc file has a `default` entry that
omits both login and password. A rare circumstance.

When libcurl is asked to perform automatic gzip decompression of
content-encoded HTTP responses with the `CURLOPT_ACCEPT_ENCODING` option,
**using zlib 1.2.0.3 or older**, an attacker-controlled integer overflow would
make libcurl perform a buffer overflow.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nf_tables: don't skip expired elements during walk
There is an asymmetry between commit/abort and preparation phase if the
following conditions are met:
1. set is a verdict map ("1.2.3.4 : jump foo")
2. timeouts are enabled
In this case, following sequence is problematic:
1. element E in set S refers to chain C
2. userspace requests removal of set S
3. kernel does a set walk to decrement chain->use count for all elements
from preparation phase
4. kernel does another set walk to remove elements from the commit phase
(or another walk to do a chain->use increment for all elements from
abort phase)
If E has already expired in 1), it will be ignored during list walk, so its use count
won't have been changed.
Then, when set is culled, ->destroy callback will zap the element via
nf_tables_set_elem_destroy(), but this function is only safe for
elements that have been deactivated earlier from the preparation phase:
lack of earlier deactivate removes the element but leaks the chain use
count, which results in a WARN splat when the chain gets removed later,
plus a leak of the nft_chain structure.
Update pipapo_get() not to skip expired elements, otherwise flush
command reports bogus ENOENT errors.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nf_tables: don't fail inserts if duplicate has expired
nftables selftests fail:
run-tests.sh testcases/sets/0044interval_overlap_0
Expected: 0-2 . 0-3, got:
W: [FAILED] ./testcases/sets/0044interval_overlap_0: got 1
Insertion must ignore duplicate but expired entries.
Moreover, there is a strange asymmetry in nft_pipapo_activate:
It refetches the current element, whereas the other ->activate callbacks
(bitmap, hash, rhash, rbtree) use elem->priv.
Same for .remove: other set implementations take elem->priv,
nft_pipapo_remove fetches elem->priv, then does a relookup,
remove this.
I suspect this was the reason for the change that prompted the
removal of the expired check in pipapo_get() in the first place,
but skipping exired elements there makes no sense to me, this helper
is used for normal get requests, insertions (duplicate check)
and deactivate callback.
In first two cases expired elements must be skipped.
For ->deactivate(), this gets called for DELSETELEM, so it
seems to me that expired elements should be skipped as well, i.e.
delete request should fail with -ENOENT error.

Parallels Desktop Technical Data Reporter Link Following Local Privilege Escalation Vulnerability.
This vulnerability allows local attackers to escalate privileges on affected installations of Parallels Desktop. An attacker must first obtain the ability to execute low-privileged code on the target host system in order to exploit this vulnerability.
The specific flaw exists within the Technical Data Reporter component. By creating a symbolic link, an attacker can abuse the service to change the permissions of arbitrary files. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to escalate privileges and execute arbitrary code in the context of root. Was ZDI-CAN-25014.
