CVE-2020-36331 libwebp vulnerabilities
Title: libwebp vulnerabilities
Summary: libwebp could be made to crash or run programs as your login if it
opened a specially crafted file.
USN-4971-1 fixed several vulnerabilities in libwebp. This update provides
the corresponding update for Ubuntu 14.04 ESM and Ubuntu 16.04 ESM.
Original advisory details:
It was discovered that libwebp incorrectly handled certain malformed
images. If a user or automated system were tricked into opening a specially
crafted image file, a remote attacker could use this issue to cause libwebp
to crash, resulting in a denial of service, or possibly execute arbitrary
code.
Instructions: In general, a standard system update will make all the necessary changes.

FAQ: Is Azure Linux the only Microsoft product that includes this open-source library and is therefore potentially affected by this vulnerability?
One of the main benefits to our customers who choose to use the Azure Linux distro is the commitment to keep it up to date with the most recent and most secure versions of the open source libraries with which the distro is composed. Microsoft is committed to transparency in this work which is why we began publishing CSAF/VEX in October 2025. See this blog post for more information. If impact to additional products is identified, we will update the CVE to reflect this.

[HIGH] iOS and iPadOS 14.7 and 14.7.1 Security Update: Discover Vulnerabilities and Take Remote Response Action Using VMDR for Mobile Devices | Qualys
Apple recently released iOS and iPadOS 14.7 and 14.7.1 which include a security update that addresses almost 38 vulnerabilities, among them several critical RCE and privilege escalation vulnerabilities. Qualys recommends that security teams should immediately update all devices running iOS and iPadOS to the latest version.
The vulnerabilities affect iOS and iPadOS components including ImageIO, Kernel, Preferences, Model I/O, Image Processing, WebKit, FontParser, and others. Apple has for the third time released a minor release (14.7.1) after a major release (14.7) to fix a critical vulnerability (CVE-2021-30807) that has been actively exploited. Successful exploitation of the vulnerability allows an application to execute arbitrary code with kernel privileges. Spyware like Pegasus might e
