kvm: qemu-nbd block format auto-detection vulnerability

qemu-nbd in QEMU, as used in Xen 4.2.x, determines the format of a raw disk image based on the header, which allows local guest OS administrators to read arbitrary files on the host by modifying the header to identify a different format, which is used when the guest is restarted, a different vulnerability than CVE-2008-2004.

The Chaos Tool Suite (ctools) module 7.x-1.x before 7.x-1.3 for Drupal does not properly restrict node access, which allows remote authenticated users with the "access content" permission to read restricted node titles via an autocomplete list.

xorg-x11-server: Information disclosure due enabling events from hot-plug devices despite input from the device being momentarily disabled

X.Org X server before 1.13.4 and 1.4.x before 1.14.1 does not properly restrict access to input events when adding a new hot-plug device, which might allow physically proximate attackers to obtain sensitive information, as demonstrated by reading passwords from a tty.

The create_user_ns function in kernel/user_namespace.c in the Linux kernel before 3.8.6 does not check whether a chroot directory exists that differs from the namespace root directory, which allows local users to bypass intended filesystem restrictions via a crafted clone system call.

The clone_mnt function in fs/namespace.c in the Linux kernel before 3.8.6 does not properly restrict changes to the MNT_READONLY flag, which allows local users to bypass an intended read-only property of a filesystem by leveraging a separate mount namespace.

The scm_check_creds function in net/core/scm.c in the Linux kernel before 3.8.6 does not properly enforce capability requirements for controlling the PID value associated with a UNIX domain socket, which allows local users to bypass intended access restrictions by leveraging the time interval during which a user namespace has been created but a PID namespace has not been created.

kernel/user_namespace.c in the Linux kernel before 3.8.9 does not have appropriate capability requirements for the uid_map and gid_map files, which allows local users to gain privileges by opening a file within an unprivileged process and then modifying the file within a privileged process.

Keystone: trust circumvention through EC2-style tokens

The ec2tokens API in OpenStack Identity (Keystone) before Havana 2013.2.1 and Icehouse before icehouse-2 does not return a trust-scoped token when one is received, which allows remote trust users to gain privileges by generating EC2 credentials from a trust-scoped token and using them in an ec2tokens API request.

xen: grant table hypercall acquire/release imbalance

Xen 4.0.x and 4.1.x incorrectly releases a grant reference when releasing a non-v1, non-transitive grant, which allows local guest administrators to cause a denial of service (host crash), obtain sensitive information, or possibly have other impacts via unspecified vectors.

xen: IOMMU TLB flushing may be inadvertently suppressed

Xen 4.2.x and 4.3.x, when using Intel VT-d and a PCI device has been assigned, does not clear the flag that suppresses IOMMU TLB flushes when unspecified errors occur, which causes the TLB entries to not be flushed and allows local guest administrators to cause a denial of service (host crash) or gain privileges via unspecified vectors.

openstack-keystone: Insecure management of LDAP and admin_token configuration file values

OpenStack devstack uses world-readable permissions for keystone.conf, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information such as the LDAP password and admin_token secret by reading the file.

kernel: net: incorrect SCM_CREDENTIALS passing

The scm_set_cred function in include/net/scm.h in the Linux kernel before 3.8.11 uses incorrect uid and gid values during credentials passing, which allows local users to gain privileges via a crafted application.

qemu: guest agent creates files with insecure permissions in deamon mode

The qemu guest agent in Qemu 1.4.1 and earlier, as used by Xen, when started in daemon mode, uses weak permissions for certain files, which allows local users to read and write to these files.

The admin page in ownCloud before 5.0.13 allows remote attackers to bypass intended access restrictions via unspecified vectors, related to MariaDB.

nova: insecure directory creation for signing

keystone/middleware/auth_token.py in OpenStack Nova Folsom, Grizzly, and Havana uses an insecure temporary directory for storing signing certificates, which allows local users to spoof servers by pre-creating this directory, which is reused by Nova, as demonstrated using /tmp/keystone-signing-nova on Fedora.

MediaWiki before 1.19.6 and 1.20.x before 1.20.5 does not allow extensions to prevent password changes without using both Special:PasswordReset and Special:ChangePassword, which allows remote attackers to bypass the intended restrictions of an extension that only implements one of these blocks.

Quassel core (server daemon) in Quassel IRC before 0.9.2 does not properly verify the user ID when accessing user backlogs, which allows remote authenticated users to read other users' backlogs via the bufferid in (1) 16/select_buffer_by_id.sql, (2) 16/select_buffer_by_id.sql, and (3) 16/select_buffer_by_id.sql in core/SQL/PostgreSQL/.

Debian adequate before 0.8.1, when run by root with the --user option, allows local users to hijack the tty and possibly gain privileges via the TIOCSTI ioctl.

nbd-server in Network Block Device (nbd) before 3.5 does not properly check IP addresses, which might allow remote attackers to bypass intended access restrictions via an IP address that has a partial match in the authfile configuration file.

tomcat: DIGEST authentication vulnerable to replay attacks

The Tomcat 6 DIGEST authentication functionality as used in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 allows remote attackers to bypass intended access restrictions by performing a replay attack after a nonce becomes stale. NOTE: this issue is due to an incomplete fix for CVE-2012-5887.
