webkit: HTMLLinkElement ignores dnsPrefetchingEnabled setting

The WebCore::HTMLLinkElement::process function in WebCore/html/HTMLLinkElement.cpp in WebKit, as used in Apple Safari before 5.0.3 on Mac OS X 10.5 through 10.6 and Windows, and before 4.1.3 on Mac OS X 10.4; webkitgtk before 1.2.6; and possibly other products does not verify whether DNS prefetching is enabled when processing an HTML LINK element, which allows remote attackers to bypass intended access restrictions, as demonstrated by an HTML e-mail message that uses a LINK element for X-Confirm-Reading-To functionality.

WebKit in Apple iOS before 4.2 allows remote attackers to bypass the remote image loading setting in Mail via an HTML LINK element with a DNS prefetching property, as demonstrated by an HTML e-mail message that uses a LINK element for X-Confirm-Reading-To functionality, a related issue to CVE-2010-3813.

Networking in Apple iOS before 4.2 accesses an invalid pointer during the processing of packet filter rules, which allows local users to gain privileges via unspecified vectors.

glibc: ld.so arbitrary DSO loading via LD_AUDIT in setuid/setgid programs

ld.so in the GNU C Library (aka glibc or libc6) before 2.11.3, and 2.12.x before 2.12.2, does not properly restrict use of the LD_AUDIT environment variable to reference dynamic shared objects (DSOs) as audit objects, which allows local users to gain privileges by leveraging an unsafe DSO located in a trusted library directory, as demonstrated by libpcprofile.so.

The Limit Mail feature in the Parental Controls functionality in Mail on Apple Mac OS X does not properly enforce the correspondence whitelist, which allows remote attackers to bypass intended access restrictions and conduct e-mail communication by leveraging knowledge of a child's e-mail address and a parent's e-mail address, related to parental notification of unapproved e-mail addresses.

The administrator interface in IBM OmniFind Enterprise Edition 8.x and 9.x does not restrict use of a session ID (aka SID) value to a single IP address, which allows remote attackers to perform arbitrary administrative actions by leveraging cookie theft, related to a "session impersonation" issue.

esRunCommand in IBM OmniFind Enterprise Edition before 9.1 allows local users to gain privileges by specifying an arbitrary command name as the first argument.

IBM OmniFind Enterprise Edition 8.x and 9.x does not properly restrict the cookie path of administrator (aka ESAdmin) cookies, which might allow remote attackers to bypass authentication by leveraging access to other pages on the web site.

Fenrir Sleipnir 2.9.6 and earlier does not prevent interaction between web script and the clipboard, which allows remote attackers to read or modify the clipboard contents via a crafted web site.

Fenrir Grani 4.5 and earlier does not prevent interaction between web script and the clipboard, which allows remote attackers to read or modify the clipboard contents via a crafted web site.

The Seiko Epson printer driver installers for LP-S9000 before 4.1.11 and LP-S7100 before 4.1.7, or as downloaded from the vendor between May 2010 and 20101125, set weak permissions for the "C:\Program Files" folder, which might allow local users to bypass intended access restrictions and create or modify arbitrary files and directories.

The browser in Research In Motion (RIM) BlackBerry Device Software 5.0.0.593 Platform 5.1.0.147 on the BlackBerry 9700 does not properly restrict cross-domain execution of JavaScript, which allows remote attackers to bypass the Same Origin Policy via vectors related to a window.open call and an IFRAME element. NOTE: some of these details are obtained from third party information.

win32k.sys in the kernel-mode drivers in Microsoft Windows XP SP2 and SP3, Windows Server 2003 SP2, Windows Vista SP1 and SP2, Windows Server 2008 Gold, SP2, and R2, and Windows 7 does not properly link driver objects, which allows local users to gain privileges via a crafted application that triggers linked-list corruption, aka "Win32k Cursor Linking Vulnerability."

The Consent User Interface (UI) in Microsoft Windows Vista SP1 and SP2, Windows Server 2008 Gold, SP2, and R2, and Windows 7 does not properly handle an unspecified registry-key value, which allows local users with SeImpersonatePrivilege rights to gain privileges via a crafted application, aka "Consent UI Impersonation Vulnerability."

kernel: failure to revert address limit override in OOPS error path

The do_exit function in kernel/exit.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.36.2 does not properly handle a KERNEL_DS get_fs value, which allows local users to bypass intended access_ok restrictions, overwrite arbitrary kernel memory locations, and gain privileges by leveraging a (1) BUG, (2) NULL pointer dereference, or (3) page fault, as demonstrated by vectors involving the clear_child_tid feature and the splice system call.

reset_diragent_keys in the Common agent in IBM Systems Director 6.2.0 has 754 permissions, which allows local users to gain privileges by leveraging system group membership.

libcloud before 0.4.1 does not verify SSL certificates for HTTPS connections, which allows remote attackers to spoof certificates and bypass intended access restrictions via a man-in-the-middle (MITM) attack.

kernel: local privilege escalation via /sys/kernel/debug/acpi/custom_method

The ACPI subsystem in the Linux kernel before 2.6.36.2 uses 0222 permissions for the debugfs custom_method file, which allows local users to gain privileges by placing a custom ACPI method in the ACPI interpreter tables, related to the acpi_debugfs_init function in drivers/acpi/debugfs.c.

IcedTea jnlp security manager bypass

The JNLP SecurityManager in IcedTea (IcedTea.so) 1.7 before 1.7.7, 1.8 before 1.8.4, and 1.9 before 1.9.4 for Java OpenJDK returns from the checkPermission method instead of throwing an exception in certain circumstances, which might allow context-dependent attackers to bypass the intended security policy by creating instances of ClassLoader.

Google Chrome before 8.0.552.215 does not properly restrict read access to videos derived from CANVAS elements, which allows remote attackers to bypass the Same Origin Policy and obtain potentially sensitive video data via a crafted web site.
