system-config-firewall: privilege escalation flaw via use of python pickle

fw_dbus.py in system-config-firewall 1.2.29 and earlier uses the pickle Python module unsafely during D-Bus communication between the GUI and the backend, which might allow local users to gain privileges via a crafted serialized object.

kernel: dccp: handle invalid feature options length

Integer underflow in the dccp_parse_options function (net/dccp/options.c) in the Linux kernel before 2.6.33.14 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via a Datagram Congestion Control Protocol (DCCP) packet with an invalid feature options length, which triggers a buffer over-read.

avahi: daemon infinite loop triggered by an empty UDP packet (CVE-2010-2244 fix regression)

avahi-core/socket.c in avahi-daemon in Avahi before 0.6.29 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop) via an empty mDNS (1) IPv4 or (2) IPv6 UDP packet to port 5353. NOTE: this vulnerability exists because of an incorrect fix for CVE-2010-2244.

libpng: Crash in png_default_error due to use of NULL Pointer

The png_err function in pngerror.c in libpng 1.0.x before 1.0.55, 1.2.x before 1.2.45, 1.4.x before 1.4.8, and 1.5.x before 1.5.4 makes a function call using a NULL pointer argument instead of an empty-string argument, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a crafted PNG image.

curl: Improper delegation of client credentials during GSS negotiation

The Curl_input_negotiate function in http_negotiate.c in libcurl 7.10.6 through 7.21.6, as used in curl and other products, always performs credential delegation during GSSAPI authentication, which allows remote servers to impersonate clients via GSSAPI requests.

NetworkManager: Password to unlock the certificate is being logged

The destroy_one_secret function in nm-setting-vpn.c in libnm-util in the NetworkManager package 0.8.999-3.git20110526 in Fedora 15 creates a log entry containing a certificate password, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information by reading a log file.

(mod_dav_svn): DoS (excessive memory use) when configured to provide path-based access control

The mod_dav_svn module for the Apache HTTP Server, as distributed in Apache Subversion 1.5.x and 1.6.x before 1.6.17, when the SVNPathAuthz short_circuit option is enabled, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop and memory consumption) in opportunistic circumstances by requesting data.

vsftpd: remote DoS via crafted glob pattern

The vsf_filename_passes_filter function in ls.c in vsftpd before 2.3.3 allows remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption and process slot exhaustion) via crafted glob expressions in STAT commands in multiple FTP sessions, a different vulnerability than CVE-2010-2632.

krb5-appl: ftpd incorrect group privilege dropping (MITKRB5-SA-2011-005)

ftpd.c in the GSS-API FTP daemon in MIT Kerberos Version 5 Applications (aka krb5-appl) 1.0.1 and earlier does not check the krb5_setegid return value, which allows remote authenticated users to bypass intended group access restrictions, and create, overwrite, delete, or read files, via standard FTP commands, related to missing autoconf tests in a configure script.

The krb5_save_ccname_done function in providers/krb5/krb5_auth.c in System Security Services Daemon (SSSD) 1.5.x before 1.5.7, when automatic ticket renewal and offline authentication are configured, uses a pathname string as a password, which allows local users to bypass Kerberos authentication by listing the /tmp directory to obtain the pathname.

jabberd: DoS via the XML "billion laughs attack"

jabberd2 before 2.2.14 does not properly detect recursion during entity expansion, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory and CPU consumption) via a crafted XML document containing a large number of nested entity references, a similar issue to CVE-2003-1564.

(mod_dav_svn): DoS (crash) via request to deliver baselined WebDAV resources

The mod_dav_svn module for the Apache HTTP Server, as distributed in Apache Subversion before 1.6.17, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and daemon crash) via a request for a baselined WebDAV resource, as exploited in the wild in May 2011.

Server: DoS via Simple Paged Results connections

slapd (aka ns-slapd) in 389 Directory Server before 1.2.8.a2 does not properly manage the c_timelimit field of the connection table element, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (daemon outage) via Simple Paged Results connections, as demonstrated by using multiple processes to replay TCP sessions, a different vulnerability than CVE-2011-0019.

Off-by-one error in the convert_query_hexchar function in html.c in cgit.cgi in cgit before 0.8.3.5 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop) via a string composed of a % (percent) character followed by invalid hex characters, as demonstrated by a %gg sequence.

socat: PROXY-CONNECT address overflow

Stack-based buffer overflow in socat 1.3.0.0 through 1.7.2.2 and 2.0.0-b1 through 2.0.0-b6 allows local users to cause a denial of service (segmentation fault) via a long server name in the PROXY-CONNECT address in the command line.

Multiple cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerabilities in user/profile/index.php in Moodle through 2.2.11, 2.3.x before 2.3.11, 2.4.x before 2.4.8, 2.5.x before 2.5.4, and 2.6.x before 2.6.1 allow remote attackers to hijack the authentication of administrators for requests that delete (1) categories or (2) fields.

Server: use of insecure LD_LIBRARY_PATH settings

The (1) backup and restore scripts, (2) main initialization script, and (3) ldap-agent script in 389 Directory Server 1.2.x (aka Red Hat Directory Server 8.2.x) place a zero-length directory name in the LD_LIBRARY_PATH, which allows local users to gain privileges via a Trojan horse shared library in the current working directory.

Server: insecure pid file directory permissions

The setup scripts in 389 Directory Server 1.2.x (aka Red Hat Directory Server 8.2.x), when multiple unprivileged instances are configured, use 0777 permissions for the /var/run/dirsrv directory, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (daemon outage or arbitrary process termination) by replacing PID files contained in this directory.

denyhosts 2.6 uses an incorrect regular expression when analyzing authentication logs, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (incorrect block of IP addresses) via crafted login names.

Stack-based buffer overflow in the ast_uri_encode function in main/utils.c in Asterisk Open Source before 1.4.38.1, 1.4.39.1, 1.6.1.21, 1.6.2.15.1, 1.6.2.16.1, 1.8.1.2, 1.8.2.; and Business Edition before C.3.6.2; when running in pedantic mode allows remote authenticated users to execute arbitrary code via crafted caller ID data in vectors involving the (1) SIP channel driver, (2) URIENCODE dialplan function, or (3) AGI dialplan function.
