VM/Security: add security hook to do_brk

Linux kernel 2.6.23 allows local users to create low pages in virtual userspace memory and bypass mmap_min_addr protection via a crafted executable file that calls the do_brk function.

wireshark WiMAX dissector possible crash

The WiMAX dissector in Wireshark (formerly Ethereal) 0.99.6 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via unknown vectors related to "unaligned access on some platforms."

Cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in OpenCA PKI 0.9.2.5, and possibly earlier versions, allows remote attackers to perform unauthorized actions as authorized users via a link or IMG tag to RAServer.

The Comment Upload 4.7.x before 4.7.x-0.1 and 5.x before 5.x-0.1 module for Drupal does not properly use functions in the upload module, which allows remote attackers to bypass upload validation, and upload arbitrary files and possibly execute arbitrary code, via unspecified vectors.

IPSecDrv.sys 10.4.0.12 in SafeNET HighAssurance Remote and SoftRemote allows local users to gain privileges via a crafted IPSECDRV_IOCTL IOCTL request.

The Project Issue Tracking module 5.x-2.x-dev before 20080130 in the 5.x-2.x series, 5.x-1.2 and earlier in the 5.x-1.x series, 4.7.x-2.6 and earlier in the 4.7.x-2.x series, and 4.7.x-1.6 and earlier in the 4.7.x-1.x series for Drupal (1) does not restrict the extensions of attached files when the Upload module is enabled for issue nodes, which allows remote attackers to upload and possibly execute arbitrary files; and (2) accepts the .html extension within the bundled file-upload functionality, which allows remote attackers to upload files containing arbitrary web script or HTML.

Geert Moernaut LSrunasE and Supercrypt use an encryption key composed of an SHA1 hash of a fixed string embedded in the executable file, which makes it easier for local users to obtain this key without reverse engineering.

Geert Moernaut LSrunasE allows local users to gain privileges by obtaining the encrypted password from a batch file, and constructing a modified batch file that specifies this password in the /password switch and specifies an arbitrary program in the /command switch.

Multiple buffer overflows in bos.rte.control in IBM AIX 5.2 and 5.3 allow local users to gain privileges via unspecified vectors related to the (1) swap, (2) swapoff, and (3) swapon programs.

sysmgt.websm.webaccess in IBM AIX 5.2 and 5.3 has world writable permissions for unspecified WebSM Remote Client files, which allows local users to "alter the behavior of" this client by overwriting these files.

Buffer overflow in the utape program in devices.scsi.tape.diag in IBM AIX 5.2 and 5.3 allows local users to gain privileges via unspecified vectors.

java-1.6.0 default external entity processing

The XML parsing code in Sun Java Runtime Environment JDK and JRE 6 Update 3 and earlier processes external entity references even when the "external general entities" property is false, which allows remote attackers to conduct XML external entity (XXE) attacks and cause a denial of service or access restricted resources.

Unrestricted file upload vulnerability in cp_upload_image.php in LightBlog 9.5 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by uploading a file with an executable extension, then accessing it via a direct request to the file in the blog's root directory.

java-1.5.0 Privilege escalation via unstrusted applet and application

Multiple unspecified vulnerabilities in the Java Runtime Environment in Sun JDK and JRE 6 Update 1 and earlier, and 5.0 Update 13 and earlier, allow context-dependent attackers to gain privileges via an untrusted (1) application or (2) applet, as demonstrated by an application or applet that grants itself privileges to (a) read local files, (b) write to local files, or (c) execute local programs.

wordpress: XML-RPC interface vulnerability

The XML-RPC implementation (xmlrpc.php) in WordPress before 2.3.3, when registration is enabled, allows remote attackers to edit posts of other blog users via unknown vectors.

IBM DB2 UDB before 8.2 Fixpak 16 does not properly check authorization for the ALTER TABLE statement, which has unknown impact and attack vectors.

Unspecified vulnerability in DB2PD in IBM DB2 UDB before 8.2 Fixpak 16 allows local users to gain root privileges via unspecified vectors.

ActivationHandler in Magnolia CE 3.5.x before 3.5.4 does not check permissions during importing, which allows remote attackers to have an unknown impact via activation of a new item, possibly involving addition of arbitrary new content.

Unspecified vulnerability in the SSH server in HP OpenVMS TCP/IP Services on OpenVMS on the Alpha platform with 5.4 before ECO 7, and on the Integrity and Alpha platforms with 5.5 before ECO 3 and 5.6 before ECO 2, allows remote attackers to obtain unspecified access via unknown vectors.

HP StorageWorks Library and Tape Tools (LTT) before 4.5 SR1 on HP-UX B.11.11 and B.11.23 allows local users to gain privileges via unspecified vectors.
