rpm: rpmbuild does not properly parse syntax of spec files

rpmbuild in RPM 4.8.0 and earlier does not properly parse the syntax of spec files, which allows user-assisted remote attackers to remove home directories via vectors involving a ;~ (semicolon tilde) sequence in a Name tag.

rpm: fails to drop POSIX file capabilities on package upgrade or removal

lib/fsm.c in RPM 4.8.0 and earlier does not properly reset the metadata of an executable file during replacement of the file in an RPM package upgrade or deletion of the file in an RPM package removal, which might allow local users to gain privileges or bypass intended access restrictions by creating a hard link to a vulnerable file that has (1) POSIX file capabilities or (2) SELinux context information, a related issue to CVE-2010-2059.

rpm: fails to drop POSIX ACLs on package upgrade or removal

lib/fsm.c in RPM 4.8.0 and earlier does not properly reset the metadata of an executable file during replacement of the file in an RPM package upgrade or deletion of the file in an RPM package removal, which might allow local users to bypass intended access restrictions by creating a hard link to a vulnerable file that has a POSIX ACL, a related issue to CVE-2010-2059.

vdsm: missing VM post-zeroing after removal

Virtual Desktop Server Manager (VDSM) in Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Hypervisor (aka RHEV-H or rhev-hypervisor) before 5.5-2.2 does not properly perform VM post-zeroing after the removal of a virtual machine's data, which allows guest OS users to obtain sensitive information by examining the disk blocks associated with a deleted virtual machine.

rhev-m: merge snapshot does not pass postzero parameter for deleted volumes

The snapshot merging functionality in Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Manager (aka RHEV-M) before 2.2 does not properly pass the postzero parameter during operations on deleted volumes, which allows guest OS users to obtain sensitive information by examining the disk blocks associated with a deleted virtual machine.

libvirt: ignoring defined main disk format when looking up disk backing stores

Red Hat libvirt, possibly 0.6.1 through 0.8.2, looks up disk backing stores without referring to the user-defined main disk format, which might allow guest OS users to read arbitrary files on the host OS, and possibly have unspecified other impact, via unknown vectors.

libvirt: ignoring defined disk backing store format when recursing into disk image backing stores

Red Hat libvirt, possibly 0.7.2 through 0.8.2, recurses into disk-image backing stores without extracting the defined disk backing-store format, which might allow guest OS users to read arbitrary files on the host OS, and possibly have unspecified other impact, via unknown vectors.

libvirt: not setting user defined backing store format when creating new image

Red Hat libvirt, possibly 0.6.0 through 0.8.2, creates new images without setting the user-defined backing-store format, which allows guest OS users to read arbitrary files on the host OS via unspecified vectors.

redhat-ds: setup script insecure .inf file permissions

The (1) setup-ds.pl and (2) setup-ds-admin.pl setup scripts for Red Hat Directory Server 8 before 8.2 use world-readable permissions when creating cache files, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information including passwords for Directory and Administration Server administrative accounts.

libvirt: improperly mapped source privileged ports may allow for obtaining privileged resources on the host

Red Hat libvirt 0.2.0 through 0.8.2 creates iptables rules with improper mappings of privileged source ports, which allows guest OS users to bypass intended access restrictions by leveraging IP address and source-port values, as demonstrated by copying and deleting an NFS directory tree.

Unspecified vulnerability in the web interface in snom VoIP Phone firmware 8 before 8.2.35 allows remote attackers to bypass intended restrictions and modify user credentials via unknown vectors. NOTE: some of these details are obtained from third party information.

The implementation of unspecified DOM methods in Google Chrome before 5.0.375.70 allows remote attackers to bypass the Same Origin Policy via unknown vectors.

bozotic HTTP server (aka bozohttpd) before 20100621 allows remote attackers to list the contents of home directories, and determine the existence of user accounts, via multiple requests for URIs beginning with /~ sequences.

The Telnet interface in the SAP J2EE Engine Core (SAP-JEECOR) 6.40 through 7.02, and Server Core (SERVERCORE) 7.10 through 7.30 allows remote authenticated users to bypass a security check and conduct SMB relay attacks via unspecified vectors.

The Node Reference module in Content Construction Kit (CCK) module 6.x before 6.x-2.7 for Drupal does not perform access checks for the source field in the backend URL for the autocomplete widget, which allows remote attackers to discover titles and IDs of controlled nodes.

The IPv6 Unicast Reverse Path Forwarding (RPF) implementation on the SEIL/X1, SEIL/X2, and SEIL/B1 routers with firmware 1.00 through 2.73, when strict mode is used, does not properly drop packets, which might allow remote attackers to bypass intended access restrictions via a spoofed IP address.

IBM WebSphere Service Registry and Repository (WSRR) 7.0.0 before FP1 does not properly implement access control, which allows remote attackers to perform governance actions via unspecified API requests to an EJB interface.

The IBM BladeCenter with Advanced Management Module (AMM) firmware build ID BPET48L, and possibly other versions before 4.7 and 5.0, stores sensitive information under the web root with insufficient access control, which allows remote attackers to download (1) logs or (2) core files via direct requests, as demonstrated by a request for private/sdc.tgz.

Opera before 10.60 on Windows and Mac OS X does not properly prevent certain double-click operations from running a program located on a web site, which allows user-assisted remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted web page that bypasses a dialog.

Opera before 10.54 on Windows and Mac OS X, and before 10.60 on UNIX platforms, does not properly restrict certain uses of homograph characters in domain names, which makes it easier for remote attackers to spoof IDN domains via unspecified choices of characters.
