Microsoft’s short, product‑scoped attestation that “Azure Linux includes this open‑source library and is therefore potentially affected” is accurate — but it is not an exclusivity guarantee: Azure Linux is the only Microsoft product Microsoft has publicly attested to include the vulnerable GNU...

Microsoft’s public mapping for CVE-2024-39484 correctly flags Azure Linux as a product that “includes this open‑source library and is therefore potentially affected,” but that carefully worded statement is a product‑scoped inventory attestation — not a technical guarantee that no other Microsoft...

Mbed TLS contained a simple but consequential memory-handling bug: plaintext left behind in application buffers after a failed or partial read could remain in process memory because mbedtls_ssl_read did not always zero out unused plaintext, creating a real risk of sensitive-data exposure for...

The newly assigned CVE‑2025‑5351 exposes a double‑free bug in libssh’s key export path — a subtle memory‑management defect in the library’s pki_key_to_blob() routine that can corrupt the heap during error handling and, under constrained conditions, crash or destabilize applications that perform...

The short, operational answer is: No — Azure Linux is the only Microsoft product Microsoft has publicly attested so far to include the upstream ATM/atmtcp code tied to CVE‑2025‑38185, but that attestation is product‑scoped and is not a technical guarantee that no other Microsoft artifact could...

Microsoft’s public advisory for CVE‑2025‑40913 confirms a vulnerability in the Perl module Net::Dropbear (versions up through 0.16) that stems from an embedded, vulnerable copy of the libtommath library — and Microsoft’s statement that “Azure Linux is the product that includes the open‑source...

Microsoft’s short, product-focused line on CVE-2025-5994 — that “Azure Linux includes this open‑source library and is therefore potentially affected” — is factually correct for the Azure Linux deliveries Microsoft has inspected, but it is not a technical guarantee that no other Microsoft product...

Microsoft’s short advisory that “Azure Linux includes this open‑source library and is therefore potentially affected” is accurate — but it is a scoped inventory attestation, not a technical guarantee that no other Microsoft product can contain the same vulnerable component. Background / Overview...

The Linux kernel patch that closed CVE-2025-38108 — a race in net_sched’s RED implementation (__red_change) — is a reminder that a named distributor’s attestation about a component is a valuable, product-scoped signal, not a universal proof that the component cannot appear elsewhere inside the...

CVE-2024-25178 is a real-world reminder that even tiny pieces of high‑performance open‑source software can become a critical link in the supply‑chain security story — Microsoft has publicly attested that Azure Linux includes the vulnerable LuaJIT component, but that attestation is a...

The libsoup vulnerability tracked as CVE-2025-32052 — a heap buffer over-read in the library’s sniff_unknown() routine — is real, has been widely patched across Linux distributions, and is expressly called out by Microsoft on its Security Update Guide as affecting the Azure Linux distribution...

Microsoft’s short MSRC attestation that “Azure Linux includes this open‑source library and is therefore potentially affected” is an authoritative inventory statement for Azure Linux — but it is not a categorical guarantee that no other Microsoft product or image could contain the same vulnerable...

Enterprise IT is hurtling toward an inflection point where AI is no longer an optional productivity layer but a persistent, machine‑speed conduit for both business value and cyber risk—and the latest ThreatLabz analysis from Zscaler makes that danger unmistakably clear. Released January 27...

The Go toolchain’s build pipeline was quietly exposed to a high‑risk code‑injection flaw in 2023, and its consequences are still instructive for developers, CI operators, and security teams: CVE-2023-29402 allowed the go command, when invoked with cgo, to generate unexpected and...

Calling any of Go's Parse* functions on specially crafted, deeply nested source can exhaust the stack and trigger a panic — a vulnerability tracked as CVE-2024-34155 that sits in the go/parser standard library and has been fixed in the Go 1.22.7 and 1.23.1 releases; Microsoft’s public...

Microsoft’s product statement on CVE-2024-45002 — that Azure Linux includes the implicated open‑source library and is therefore potentially affected — is accurate as a product-level attestation, but it is not the same thing as a global guarantee that no other Microsoft product contains the same...

Microsoft’s short answer — no: the MSRC note that “Azure Linux includes this open‑source library and is therefore potentially affected” is a product‑scoped attestation, not a technical guarantee that no other Microsoft product or image could carry the same vulnerable component. The CVE in...

Microsoft’s brief advisory that Azure Linux includes this open‑source library and is therefore potentially affected is an important inventory signal — but it is not a categorical guarantee that Azure Linux is the only Microsoft product that could carry the vulnerable Go html/template code...

Microsoft’s short public attestation — that “Azure Linux includes this open‑source library and is therefore potentially affected” — is accurate for the product it names, but it is a scoped inventory statement, not proof that no other Microsoft product could include the same vulnerable...

A NULL-pointer dereference discovered in the Yasm assembler (tracked as CVE-2024-22653) is small in code but broad in consequence: the bug lived in a widely reused open-source component, was fixed in a targeted upstream commit, and — contrary to a narrow reading of a Microsoft FAQ — the presence...
