Recent Xfce Security Vulnerabilities

In Xfce xfce4-settings before 4.16.4 and 4.17.x before 4.17.1

CVE-2022-45062 9.8 - Critical - November 09, 2022

In Xfce xfce4-settings before 4.16.4 and 4.17.x before 4.17.1, there is an argument injection vulnerability in xfce4-mime-helper.

Argument Injection

XFCE 4.16 allows attackers to execute arbitrary code

CVE-2022-32278 8.8 - High - June 13, 2022

XFCE 4.16 allows attackers to execute arbitrary code because xdg-open can execute a .desktop file on an attacker-controlled FTP server.

An issue was discovered in Thunar before 4.16.7 and 4.17.x before 4.17.2

CVE-2021-32563 9.8 - Critical - May 11, 2021

An issue was discovered in Thunar before 4.16.7 and 4.17.x before 4.17.2. When called with a regular file as a command-line argument, it delegates to a different program (based on the file type) without user confirmation. This could be used to achieve code execution.

Improper Control of Dynamically-Managed Code Resources

Xfce Thunar 1.6.15

CVE-2018-18398 4.7 - Medium - October 19, 2018

Xfce Thunar 1.6.15, when Xfce 4.12 is used, mishandles the IBus-Unikey input method for file searches within File Manager, leading to an out-of-bounds read and SEGV. This could potentially be exploited by an arbitrary local user who creates files in /tmp before the victim uses this input method.

Out-of-bounds Read

Xfce4-session 4.5.91 in Xfce does not lock the screen when the suspend or hibernate button is pressed, which might make it easier for physically proximate attackers to access an unattended laptop

CVE-2009-4996 - September 07, 2010

Xfce4-session 4.5.91 in Xfce does not lock the screen when the suspend or hibernate button is pressed, which might make it easier for physically proximate attackers to access an unattended laptop via a resume action, a related issue to CVE-2010-2532. NOTE: there is no general agreement that this is a vulnerability, because separate control over locking can be an equally secure, or more secure, behavior in some threat environments
