Multiple open redirect vulnerabilities in Joomla! 1.5 before 1.5.7 allow remote attackers to redirect users to arbitrary web sites and conduct phishing attacks via a "passed in" URL.

JRequest in Joomla! 1.5 before 1.5.7 does not sanitize variables that were set with JRequest::setVar, which allows remote attackers to conduct "variable injection" attacks and have unspecified other impact.

wordpress: sql column truncation flaw

WordPress before 2.6.2 does not properly handle MySQL warnings about insertion of username strings that exceed the maximum column width of the user_login column, and does not properly handle space characters when comparing usernames, which allows remote attackers to change an arbitrary user's password to a random value by registering a similar username and then requesting a password reset, related to a "SQL column truncation vulnerability." NOTE: the attacker can discover the random password by also exploiting CVE-2008-4107.

PHP: insecure random numbers

The (1) rand and (2) mt_rand functions in PHP 5.2.6 do not produce cryptographically strong random numbers, which allows attackers to leverage exposures in products that rely on these functions for security-relevant functionality, as demonstrated by the password-reset functionality in Joomla! 1.5.x and WordPress before 2.6.2, a different vulnerability than CVE-2008-2107, CVE-2008-2108, and CVE-2008-4102.

python: Generic FAQ wizard moving tool insecure auxiliary /tmp file usage (symlink attack possible)

Tools/faqwiz/move-faqwiz.sh (aka the generic FAQ wizard moving tool) in Python 2.4.5 might allow local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on a tmp$RANDOM.tmp temporary file. NOTE: there may not be common usage scenarios in which tmp$RANDOM.tmp is located in an untrusted directory.

A certain Debian patch for OpenSSH before 4.3p2-9etch3 on etch; before 4.6p1-1 on sid and lenny; and on other distributions such as SUSE uses functions that are not async-signal-safe in the signal handler for login timeouts, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (connection slot exhaustion) via multiple login attempts. NOTE: this issue exists because of an incorrect fix for CVE-2006-5051.

Buffer overflow in the SQLVDIRLib.SQLVDirControl ActiveX control in Tools\Binn\sqlvdir.dll in Microsoft SQL Server 2000 (aka SQL Server 8.0) allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (browser crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a long URL in the second argument to the Connect method. NOTE: this issue is not a vulnerability in many environments, since the control is not marked as safe for scripting and would not execute with default Internet Explorer settings.

Unspecified vulnerability in Servlet Engine/Web Container in IBM WebSphere Application Server (WAS) 6.0.2 before 6.0.2.31 and 6.1 before 6.1.0.19, when the FileServing feature is enabled, has unknown impact and attack vectors.

kernel: sctp_getsockopt_hmac_ident information disclosure

The sctp_getsockopt_hmac_ident function in net/sctp/socket.c in the Stream Control Transmission Protocol (sctp) implementation in the Linux kernel before 2.6.26.4, when the SCTP-AUTH extension is enabled, relies on an untrusted length value to limit copying of data from kernel memory, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information via a crafted SCTP_HMAC_IDENT IOCTL request involving the sctp_getsockopt function.

srv.sys in the Server service in Microsoft Windows 2000 SP4, XP SP2 and SP3, Server 2003 SP1 and SP2, Vista Gold and SP1, and Server 2008 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via an SMB WRITE_ANDX packet with an offset that is inconsistent with the packet size, related to "insufficiently validating the buffer size," as demonstrated by a request to the \PIPE\lsarpc named pipe, aka "SMB Validation Denial of Service Vulnerability."

TalkBack 2.3.6 allows remote attackers to obtain configuration information via a direct request to install/info.php, which calls the phpinfo function.

Buffer overflow in Apple QuickTime 7.5.5 and iTunes 8.0 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (browser crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a long type attribute in a quicktime tag (1) on a web page or embedded in a (2) .mp4 or (3) .mov file, possibly related to the Check_stack_cookie function and an off-by-one error that leads to a heap-based buffer overflow.

Unspecified vulnerability in a web page in the PRM module in Sun Management Center (SunMC) 3.6.1 and 4.0 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via unspecified vectors.

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in High Norm Sound Master 2nd 1.0 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via unspecified vectors.

Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in CA Service Desk 11.2 and CMDB 11.0 through 11.2 allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via unspecified vectors involving "multiple web forms."

Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in FlatPress 0.804 allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the (1) user or (2) pass parameter to login.php, or the (3) name parameter to contact.php.

Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in cpCommerce before 1.2.4 allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via (1) the search parameter in a search.quick action to search.php and (2) the name parameter in a sendtofriend action to sendtofriend.php.

Joomla! 1.5.8 does not set the secure flag for the session cookie in an https session, which makes it easier for remote attackers to capture this cookie by intercepting its transmission within an http session.

The search function in phpBB 2.x provides a search_id value that leaks the state of PHP's PRNG, which allows remote attackers to obtain potentially sensitive information, as demonstrated by a cross-application attack against WordPress, a different vulnerability than CVE-2006-0632.

python-pydns uses insecure DNS source ports

PyDNS (aka python-dns) before 2.3.1-5 in Debian GNU/Linux does not use random source ports for DNS requests and does not use random transaction IDs for DNS retries, which makes it easier for remote attackers to spoof DNS responses, a different vulnerability than CVE-2008-1447. NOTE: this vulnerability exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2008-4099.
