eZ publish before 3.8.1 does not properly enforce permissions for "content edit Language" when there are four or more languages, which allows remote authenticated users to perform translations into languages that are not listed in a Module Function Limitation policy.

eZ publish before 3.8.5 does not properly enforce permissions for editing in a specific language, which allows remote authenticated users to create a draft in an unauthorized language by editing an archived version of an object, and then using Manage Versions to copy this version to a new draft.

PreviewAction in XWiki 0.9.543 through 0.9.1252 does not set the Author field to the identity of the user who last modified a document, which allows remote authenticated users without programming rights to execute arbitrary code by selecting a document whose author has programming rights, modifying this document to contain a script, and previewing without saving the document.

The NFS client implementation in the kernel in Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 3, when a filesystem is mounted with the noacl option, checks permissions for the open system call via vfs_permission (mode bits) data rather than an NFS ACCESS call to the server, which allows local client processes to obtain a false success status from open calls that the server would deny, and possibly obtain sensitive information about file permissions on the server, as demonstrated in a root_squash environment. NOTE: it is uncertain whether any scenarios involving this issue cross privilege boundaries.

Barron McCann X-Kryptor Driver BMS1446HRR (Xgntr BMS1351 Install BMS1472) in X-Kryptor Secure Client does not drop privileges when launching an Explorer window in response to a help command, which allows local users to gain LocalSystem privileges via interactive use of Explorer.

sre/params.php in the Integrity Clientless Security (ICS) component in Check Point Connectra NGX R62 3.x and earlier before Security Hotfix 5, and possibly VPN-1 NGX R62, allows remote attackers to bypass security requirements via a crafted Report parameter, which returns a valid ICSCookie authentication token.

WordPress allows remote attackers to determine the existence of arbitrary files, and possibly read portions of certain files, via pingback service calls with a source URI that corresponds to a local pathname, which triggers different fault codes for existing and non-existing files, and in certain configurations causes a brief file excerpt to be published as a blog comment.

The (1) Aruba Mobility Controllers 200, 600, 2400, and 6000 and (2) Alcatel-Lucent OmniAccess Wireless 43xx and 6000 do not properly implement authentication and privilege assignment for the guest account, which allows remote attackers to access administrative interfaces or the WLAN.

HVM guest VNC server allows compromise of entire host OS by any VNC console user

The VNC server implementation in QEMU, as used by Xen and possibly other environments, allows local users of a guest operating system to read arbitrary files on the host operating system via unspecified vectors related to QEMU monitor mode, as demonstrated by mapping files to a CDROM device. NOTE: some of these details are obtained from third party information.

The default configuration of JBoss does not restrict access to the (1) console and (2) web management interfaces, which allows remote attackers to bypass authentication and gain administrative access via direct requests.

mAlbum 0.3 has default accounts (1) "login"/"pass" for its administrative account and (2) "dqsfg"/"sdfg", which allows remote attackers to gain privileges.

VMware Workstation 5.5.3 build 34685 does not provide per-user restrictions on certain privileged actions, which allows local users to perform restricted operations such as changing system time, accessing hardware components, and stopping the "VMware tools service" service. NOTE: exploitation is simplified via (1) weak file permissions (Users = Read & Execute) for %PROGRAMFILES%\VMware; and weak registry key permissions (access by Users) for (2) vmmouse, (3) vmscsi, (4) VMTools, (5) vmx_svga, and (6) vmxnet in HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\; which allows local users to perform various privileged actions outside of the guest OS by executing certain files under %PROGRAMFILES%\VMware\VMware Tools, as demonstrated by (a) VMControlPanel.cpl and (b) vmwareservice.exe.

The command line interface (CLI) in Cisco Unified IP Phone 7906G, 7911G, 7941G, 7961G, 7970G, and 7971G, with firmware 8.0(4)SR1 and earlier allows local users to obtain privileges or cause a denial of service via unspecified vectors. NOTE: this issue can be leveraged remotely via CVE-2007-1063.

The zip:// URL wrapper provided by the PECL zip extension in PHP before 4.4.7, and 5.2.0 and 5.2.1, does not implement safemode or open_basedir checks, which allows remote attackers to read ZIP archives located outside of the intended directories.

The compress.bzip2:// URL wrapper provided by the bz2 extension in PHP before 4.4.7, and 5.x before 5.2.2, does not implement safemode or open_basedir checks, which allows remote attackers to read bzip2 archives located outside of the intended directories.

PostgreSQL security-definer function privilege escalation

Untrusted search path vulnerability in PostgreSQL before 7.3.19, 7.4.x before 7.4.17, 8.0.x before 8.0.13, 8.1.x before 8.1.9, and 8.2.x before 8.2.4 allows remote authenticated users, when permitted to call a SECURITY DEFINER function, to gain the privileges of the function owner, related to "search_path settings."

Microsoft Windows Vista uses insecure default permissions for unspecified "local user information data stores" in the registry and the file system, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information such as administrative passwords, aka "Permissive User Information Store ACLs Information Disclosure Vulnerability."

The Scheduler Service (VxSchedService.exe) in Symantec Storage Foundation for Windows 5.0 allows remote attackers to bypass authentication and execute arbitrary code via certain requests to the service socket that create (1) PreScript or (2) PostScript registry values under Veritas\VxSvc\CurrentVersion\Schedules specifying future command execution.

Apple QuickTime for Java 7.1.6 on Mac OS X and Windows does not properly restrict QTObject subclassing, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a web page containing a user-defined class that accesses unsafe functions that can be leveraged to write to arbitrary memory locations.

javaws vulnerabilities

Sun Java Web Start in JDK and JRE 5.0 Update 10 and earlier, and Java Web Start in SDK and JRE 1.4.2_13 and earlier, allows remote attackers to perform unauthorized actions via an application that grants privileges to itself, related to "Incorrect Use of System Classes" and probably related to support for JNLP files.
