perl-Compress-Raw-Bzip2: Off-by-one error in the bzinflate function - DoS (crash)

Off-by-one error in the bzinflate function in Bzip2.xs in the Compress-Raw-Bzip2 module before 2.018 for Perl allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (application hang or crash) via a crafted bzip2 compressed stream that triggers a buffer overflow, a related issue to CVE-2009-1391.

xerces-c27: Stack overflow when parsing recursive XML structures

Stack consumption vulnerability in validators/DTD/DTDScanner.cpp in Apache Xerces C++ 2.7.0 and 2.8.0 allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via vectors involving nested parentheses and invalid byte values in "simply nested DTD structures," as demonstrated by the Codenomicon XML fuzzing framework.

samba format string vulnerabilities

Multiple format string vulnerabilities in client/client.c in smbclient in Samba 3.2.0 through 3.2.12 might allow context-dependent attackers to execute arbitrary code via format string specifiers in a filename.

net-snmp: DoS (division by zero) via SNMP GetBulk requests

agent/snmp_agent.c in snmpd in net-snmp 5.0.9 in Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 3 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (daemon crash) via a crafted SNMP GETBULK request that triggers a divide-by-zero error. NOTE: this vulnerability exists because of an incorrect fix for CVE-2008-4309.

The Security component in IBM WebSphere Application Server (WAS) 6.0.2 before 6.0.2.35 permits "non-standard http methods," which has unknown impact and remote attack vectors.

Samba improper file access

The acl_group_override function in smbd/posix_acls.c in smbd in Samba 3.0.x before 3.0.35, 3.1.x and 3.2.x before 3.2.13, and 3.3.x before 3.3.6, when dos filemode is enabled, allows remote attackers to modify access control lists for files via vectors related to read access to uninitialized memory.

pidgin: DoS via specially-crafted ICQWebMessage

The OSCAR protocol implementation in Pidgin before 2.5.8 misinterprets the ICQWebMessage message type as the ICQSMS message type, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a crafted ICQ web message that triggers allocation of a large amount of memory.

httpd: mod_proxy reverse proxy DoS (infinite loop)

The stream_reqbody_cl function in mod_proxy_http.c in the mod_proxy module in the Apache HTTP Server before 2.3.3, when a reverse proxy is configured, does not properly handle an amount of streamed data that exceeds the Content-Length value, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) via crafted requests.

httpd: possible temporary DoS (CPU consumption) in mod_deflate

The mod_deflate module in Apache httpd 2.2.11 and earlier compresses large files until completion even after the associated network connection is closed, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption).

dhcp: DoS/abort in some configs with client-identifier and hardware address host specifications

dhcpd in ISC DHCP 3.0.4 and 3.1.1, when the dhcp-client-identifier and hardware ethernet configuration settings are both used, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (daemon crash) via unspecified requests.

dhcp: insecure temporary file use in the dhcpd init script

The configtest function in the Red Hat dhcpd init script for DHCP 3.0.1 in Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 3 allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on an unspecified temporary file, related to the "dhcpd -t" command.

The multipart processor in ModSecurity before 2.5.9 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a multipart form datapost request with a missing part header name, which triggers a NULL pointer dereference.

pulseaudio: privilege escalation flaw via pulseaudio re-exec

Race condition in PulseAudio 0.9.9, 0.9.10, and 0.9.14 allows local users to gain privileges via vectors involving creation of a hard link, related to the application setting LD_BIND_NOW to 1, and then calling execv on the target of the /proc/self/exe symlink.

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).

openjdk/netx grants privileges for signed jars to bundled unsigned jars

The Java Web Start framework in IcedTea in OpenJDK before 1.6.0.0-20.b16.fc10 on Fedora 10, and before 1.6.0.0-27.b16.fc11 on Fedora 11, trusts an entire application when at least one of the listed jar files is trusted, which allows context-dependent attackers to execute arbitrary code without the untrusted-code restrictions via a crafted application, related to NetX.

kernel: tun/tap: Fix crashes if open() /dev/net/tun and then poll() it

The tun_chr_poll function in drivers/net/tun.c in the tun subsystem in the Linux kernel 2.6.30 and 2.6.30.1, when the -fno-delete-null-pointer-checks gcc option is omitted, allows local users to gain privileges via vectors involving a NULL pointer dereference and an mmap of /dev/net/tun, a different vulnerability than CVE-2009-1894.

The secure login page in the Administrative Console component in IBM WebSphere Application Server (WAS) 6.0.2 before 6.0.2.35 does not redirect to an https page upon receiving an http request, which makes it easier for remote attackers to read the contents of WAS sessions by sniffing the network.

Unspecified vulnerability in the Administrative Configservice API in the System Management/Repository component in IBM WebSphere Application Server (WAS) 6.0.2 before 6.0.2.35, 6.1 before 6.1.0.25, and 7.0 before 7.0.0.5 on z/OS allows remote authenticated users to obtain sensitive information via unknown use of the wsadmin scripting tool, related to a "security exposure in wsadmin."

The Configservice APIs in the Administrative Console component in IBM WebSphere Application Server (WAS) 6.0.2 before 6.0.2.35, 6.1 before 6.1.0.25, and 7.0 before 7.0.0.5, when tracing is enabled, allow remote attackers to obtain sensitive information via unspecified use of the wsadmin scripting tool.

The PDF XSS protection feature in ModSecurity before 2.5.8 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (Apache httpd crash) via a request for a PDF file that does not use the GET method.
