Apport before 0.108.4 on Ubuntu 8.04 LTS, before 0.119.2 on Ubuntu 8.10, and before 1.0-0ubuntu5.2 on Ubuntu 9.04 does not properly remove files from the application's crash-report directory, which allows local users to delete arbitrary files via unspecified vectors.

Firefox 2 and 3 Layout engine crash

The browser engine in Mozilla Firefox before 3.0.9, Thunderbird before 2.0.0.22, and SeaMonkey before 1.1.16 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) and possibly trigger memory corruption via vectors related to nsSVGElement::BindToTree.

jar: scheme ignores the content-disposition: header on the inner URI

The jar: URI implementation in Mozilla Firefox before 3.0.9, Thunderbird, and SeaMonkey does not follow the Content-Disposition header of the inner URI, which allows remote attackers to conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks and possibly other attacks via an uploaded .jar file with a "Content-Disposition: attachment" designation.

Firefox Same-origin violations in XMLHttpRequest and XPCNativeWrapper.toString

Mozilla Firefox before 3.0.9, Thunderbird, and SeaMonkey do not properly implement the Same Origin Policy for (1) XMLHttpRequest, involving a mismatch for a document's principal, and (2) XPCNativeWrapper.toString, involving an incorrect __proto__ scope, which allows remote attackers to conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks and possibly other attacks via a crafted document.

javascript: URIs

Mozilla Firefox before 3.0.9 and SeaMonkey 1.1.17 do not block javascript: URIs in Refresh headers in HTTP responses, which allows remote attackers to conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks via vectors related to (1) injecting a Refresh header or (2) specifying the content of a Refresh header. NOTE: it was later reported that Firefox 3.6 a1 pre and Mozilla 1.7.x and earlier are also affected.

JBossEAP allows download of non-EJB class files

The default configuration of the JBossAs component in Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform (aka JBossEAP or EAP), possibly 4.2 before CP04 and 4.3 before CP02, when a production environment is enabled, sets the DownloadServerClasses property to true, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information (non-EJB classes) via a download request, a different vulnerability than CVE-2008-3273.

dbus: incorrect use of [send|receive]_requested_reply policy rule attribute in system.conf

The default configuration of system.conf in D-Bus (aka DBus) before 1.2.6 omits the send_type attribute in certain rules, which allows local users to bypass intended access restrictions by (1) sending messages, related to send_requested_reply; and possibly (2) receiving messages, related to receive_requested_reply.

pdns: DoS (daemon crash) via a CH HINFO query.

PowerDNS before 2.9.21.2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (daemon crash) via a CH HINFO query.

kernel: personality: fix PER_CLEAR_ON_SETID

The personality subsystem in the Linux kernel before 2.6.31-rc3 has a PER_CLEAR_ON_SETID setting that does not clear the ADDR_COMPAT_LAYOUT and MMAP_PAGE_ZERO flags when executing a setuid or setgid program, which makes it easier for local users to leverage the details of memory usage to (1) conduct NULL pointer dereference attacks, (2) bypass the mmap_min_addr protection mechanism, or (3) defeat address space layout randomization (ASLR).

security flaw

hidd in BlueZ (bluez-utils) before 2.25 allows remote attackers to obtain control of the (1) Mouse and (2) Keyboard Human Interface Device (HID) via a certain configuration of two HID (PSM) endpoints, operating as a server, aka HidAttack.

Mozilla Firefox 2.0.0.1 and earlier does not prompt users before saving bookmarklets, which allows remote attackers to bypass the same-domain policy by tricking a user into saving a bookmarklet with a data: scheme, which is executed in the context of the last visited web page.

The default configuration of WebAPP before 0.9.9.5 has a CAPTCHA setting of "no," which makes it easier for automated programs to submit false data.

security flaw

The Distributed Lock Manager (DLM) in the cluster manager for Linux kernel 2.6.15 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (loss of lock services) by connecting to the DLM port, which probably prevents other processes from accessing the service.

The default configuration of Centre for Speech Technology Research (CSTR) Festival 1.95 beta (aka 2.0 beta) on Gentoo Linux, SUSE Linux, and possibly other distributions, is run locally with elevated privileges without requiring authentication, which allows local and remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via the local daemon on port 1314, a different vulnerability than CVE-2001-0956. NOTE: this issue is local in some environments, but remote on others.

Cisco Content Switching Modules (CSM) 4.2 before 4.2.7, and Cisco Content Switching Module with SSL (CSM-S) 2.1 before 2.1.6, when service termination is enabled, allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (reboot) via unspecified vectors related to high network utilization, aka CSCsh57876.

DenyHosts 2.6 processes OpenSSH sshd "not listed in AllowUsers" log messages with an incorrect regular expression that does not match an IP address, which might allow remote attackers to avoid detection and blocking when making invalid login attempts with a username not present in AllowUsers, as demonstrated by the root username, a different vulnerability than CVE-2007-4323.

Quick Look Apple Mac OS X 10.5.1, when previewing an HTML file, does not prevent plug-ins from making network requests, which might allow remote attackers to obtain sensitive information.

Aclient in Symantec Altiris Deployment Solution 6.x before 6.8.380.0 allows local users to gain local System privileges via the "Enable key-based authentication to Deployment server" browser option, a different issue than CVE-2007-4380.

Solaris 9, with Solaris Auditing enabled and certain patches for sshd installed, can generate audit records with an audit-ID of 0 even when the user logging into ssh is not root, which makes it easier for attackers to avoid detection and can make it more difficult to conduct forensics activities.

The default configuration of Uber Uploader (UU) 5.3.6 and earlier does not block uploads of (1) .html, (2) .asp, and other possibly dangerous extensions, which allows remote attackers to use these extensions in uploads via (a) uu_file_upload.php, related to uu_file_upload.js and (b) uber_uploader_file.php, related to uber_uploader_file.js, a different issue than CVE-2007-0123. NOTE: the vendor disputes the severity of the issue, noting that it is the administrator's responsibility to "add file extensions that you may or may not want uploaded."
