Multiple integer overflows in PHP 4 before 4.4.8, and PHP 5 before 5.2.4, allow remote attackers to obtain sensitive information (memory contents) or cause a denial of service (thread crash) via a large len value to the (1) strspn or (2) strcspn function, which triggers an out-of-bounds read. NOTE: this affects different product versions than CVE-2007-3996.
Multiple buffer overflows in yaSSL 1.7.5 and earlier, as used in MySQL and possibly other products, allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via (1) the ProcessOldClientHello function in handshake.cpp or (2) "inputbuffer& operator>>" in yasslimp.cpp.
Multiple buffer overflows in Python 2.5.2 and earlier on 32bit platforms allow context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) or have unspecified other impact via a long string that leads to incorrect memory allocation during Unicode string processing, related to the unicoderesize function and the PyMemRESIZE macro.
OpenSSL 0.9.8c-1 up to versions before 0.9.8g-9 on Debian-based operating systems uses a random number generator that generates predictable numbers, which makes it easier for remote attackers to conduct brute force guessing attacks against cryptographic keys.
Logic error in the SID/Name translation functionality in smbd in Samba 3.0.23d through 3.0.25pre2 allows local users to gain temporary privileges and execute SMB/CIFS protocol operations via unspecified vectors that cause the daemon to transition to the root user.
Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures assigned an identifier CVE-2007-5191 to the following vulnerability:
mount and umount in util-linux call the setuid and setgid functions in the wrong order and do not check the return values, which might allow attackers to gain privileges via helpers such as mount.nfs.

Quoting the PostgreSQL release notes: http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.2/static/release-8-2-4.html
Support explicit placement of the temporary-table schema within searchpath, and disable searching it for functions and operators (Tom)
This is needed to allow a security-definer function to set a truly secure value of searchpath. Without it, an unprivileged SQL user can use temporary objects to execute code with the privileges of the security-definer function (CVE-2007-2138). See CREATE FUNCTION for more information.
This flaw also affects FC5 and FC7
Unspecified vulnerability in EMC VMware Workstation before 5.5.5 Build 56455 and 6.x before 6.0.1 Build 55017, Player before 1.0.5 Build 56455 and Player 2 before 2.0.1 Build 55017, ACE before 1.0.3 Build 54075 and ACE 2 before 2.0.1 Build 55017, and Server before 1.0.4 Build 56528 allows users with login access to a guest operating system to cause a denial of service (guest outage and host process crash or hang) via unspecified vectors.
The wordwrap function in PHP 4 before 4.4.8, and PHP 5 before 5.2.4, does not properly use the breakcharlen variable, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (divide-by-zero error and application crash, or infinite loop) via certain arguments, as demonstrated by a 'chr(0), 0, ""' argument set.
The date handling code in modules/proxy/proxyutil.c (modproxy) in Apache 2.3.0, when using a threaded MPM, allows remote origin servers to cause a denial of service (caching forward proxy process crash) via crafted date headers that trigger a buffer over-read.
PerlRun.pm in Apache modperl before 1.30, and RegistryCooker.pm in modperl 2.x, does not properly escape PATHINFO before use in a regular expression, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (resource consumption) via a crafted URI.
