Missing exit out of permission check in haveged could lead to root exploit

In `src/havegecmd.c`, the `socket_handler` function performs a credential check on the abstract UNIX socket (`\0/sys/entropy/haveged`). However, while it detects if the connecting user is not root (`cred.uid != 0`) and prepares a negative acknowledgement (`ASCII_NAK`), it **fails to stop execution**. The code proceeds to the `switch` statement, allowing any local unprivileged user to execute privileged commands such as `MAGIC_CHROOT`.

SSL/TLS: Padding Oracle On Downgraded Legacy Encryption attack

The SSL protocol 3.0, as used in OpenSSL through 1.0.1i and other products, uses nondeterministic CBC padding, which makes it easier for man-in-the-middle attackers to obtain cleartext data via a padding-oracle attack, aka the "POODLE" issue.

kernel: missing check before setting mount propagation

The do_change_type function in fs/namespace.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.22 does not verify that the caller has the CAP_SYS_ADMIN capability, which allows local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service by modifying the properties of a mountpoint.

yast2-backup 2.14.2 through 2.16.6 on SUSE Linux and Novell Linux allows local users to gain privileges via shell metacharacters in filenames used by the backup process.

Sun Sun Ray Server Software 3.1 through 4.0 does not properly restrict access, which allows remote attackers to discover the Sun Ray administration password, and obtain admin access to the Data Store and Administration GUI, via unspecified vectors.

Sun Sun Ray Server Software 3.x and 4.0 and Sun Ray Windows Connector 1.1 and 2.0 expose the LDAP password during a configuration step, which allows local users to discover the Sun Ray administration password, and obtain admin access to the Data Store and Administration GUI, via unspecified vectors related to the utconfig component of the Server Software and the uttscadm component of the Windows Connector.

kernel: fs: pipe.c null pointer dereference

Multiple race conditions in fs/pipe.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.32-rc6 allow local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash) or gain privileges by attempting to open an anonymous pipe via a /proc/*/fd/ pathname.

ia32el: unspecified vulnerability in ia32el

Unspecified vulnerability in ia32el (aka the IA 32 emulation functionality) before 7042_7022-0.4.2 in SUSE Linux Enterprise (SLE) 10 SP2 on Itanium IA64 machines allows local users to cause a denial of service (system crash) via a 32-bit x86 application.

kernel: dio: zero struct dio with kzalloc instead of manually

fs/direct-io.c in the dio subsystem in the Linux kernel before 2.6.23 does not properly zero out the dio struct, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (OOPS), as demonstrated by a certain fio test.

Unspecified vulnerability in Sun Ray Kiosk Mode 4.0 allows local and remote authenticated Sun Ray administrators to gain root privileges via unknown vectors related to utconfig.

kernel: NULL ptr dereference in multiple network drivers due to missing checks in tty code

The Linux kernel before 2.6.25.10 does not properly perform tty operations, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly gain privileges via vectors involving NULL pointer dereference of function pointers in (1) hamradio/6pack.c, (2) hamradio/mkiss.c, (3) irda/irtty-sir.c, (4) ppp_async.c, (5) ppp_synctty.c, (6) slip.c, (7) wan/x25_asy.c, and (8) wireless/strip.c in drivers/net/.

Mozilla: Miscellaneous memory safety hazards (rv:47.0) (MFSA 2016-49)

Multiple unspecified vulnerabilities in the browser engine in Mozilla Firefox before 47.0 allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via unknown vectors.

Mozilla: SVG filters information disclosure through feDisplacementMap (MFSA 2014-28)

The SVG filter implementation in Mozilla Firefox before 28.0, Firefox ESR 24.x before 24.4, Thunderbird before 24.4, and SeaMonkey before 2.25 allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive displacement-correlation information, and possibly bypass the Same Origin Policy and read text from a different domain, via a timing attack involving feDisplacementMap elements, a related issue to CVE-2013-1693.

samba: talloc free on uninitialized stack pointer in netlogon server could lead to remote-code execution

The Netlogon server implementation in smbd in Samba 3.5.x and 3.6.x before 3.6.25, 4.0.x before 4.0.25, 4.1.x before 4.1.17, and 4.2.x before 4.2.0rc5 performs a free operation on an uninitialized stack pointer, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via crafted Netlogon packets that use the ServerPasswordSet RPC API, as demonstrated by packets reaching the _netr_ServerPasswordSet function in rpc_server/netlogon/srv_netlog_nt.c.

glibc: heap/stack gap jumping via unbounded stack allocations

glibc contains a vulnerability that allows specially crafted LD_LIBRARY_PATH values to manipulate the heap/stack, causing them to alias, potentially resulting in arbitrary code execution. Please note that additional hardening changes have been made to glibc to prevent manipulation of stack and heap memory but these issues are not directly exploitable, as such they have not been given a CVE. This affects glibc 2.25 and earlier.

game-music-emu before 0.6.1 mishandles unspecified integer values.

xen: Checks access permissions to MMIO ranges only after accessing them

Xen PV guest before Xen 4.3 checked access permissions to MMIO ranges only after accessing them, allowing host PCI device space memory reads, leading to information disclosure. This is an error in the get_user function. NOTE: the upstream Xen Project considers versions before 4.5.x to be EOL.

kexec-tools: mkdumprd script called "dracut" in the current working directory

The mkdumprd script called "dracut" in the current working directory "." allows local users to trick the administrator into executing code as root.

ntp: 'ntpq saveconfig' command allows dangerous characters in filenames

The ntpq saveconfig command in NTP 4.1.2, 4.2.x before 4.2.8p6, 4.3, 4.3.25, 4.3.70, and 4.3.77 does not properly filter special characters, which allows attackers to cause unspecified impact via a crafted filename.

game-music-emu before 0.6.1 allows local users to cause a denial of service (divide by zero and process crash).
