Heap-based buffer overflow in the stringvformat function in string.c in Exim before 4.70 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via an SMTP session that includes two MAIL commands in conjunction with a large message containing crafted headers, leading to improper rejection logging.
Heap-based buffer overflow in Impress in OpenOffice.org (OOo) 2.x and 3.x before 3.3 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted PNG file in an ODF or Microsoft Office document, as demonstrated by a PowerPoint (aka PPT) document.
An array index error, leading to heap based buffer overflow, was found in the way OpenOffice.org parsed RTF files. If a user opened a specially-crafted RTF file, with broken RTF tables, in OpenOffice.org suite tool (oowriter), it could lead to denial of service (oowriter executable crash), or, possibly, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running OpenOffice.org Writer.

Array index error, leading to heap based buffer overflow (two occurrences of invalid write by one byte) was found in the way OpenOffice.org performed scanning of the typography information of certain Microsoft Word Binary File Format (.DOC) files with certain user defined list styles (WW8). If a user opened a specially-crafted DOC file in OpenOffice.org suite tool (oowriter), it could lead to denial of service (oowriter executable crash), or possibly, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running OpenOffice.org Writer.

An integer signedness error, leading to heap-based buffer out-ouf-bounds read was found in the way OpenOffice.org processed certain Rich Text Format (RTF) tags. If a user opened a specially-crafted RTF file in OpenOffice.org suite tool (oowriter), it could lead to denial of service (oowriter executable crash), or possibly, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running OpenOffice.org Writer.

iCommon Vulnerabilities and Exposures assigned an identifier CVE-2010-3114 to the following vulnerability:
Name: CVE-2010-3114 URL: http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2010-3114 Assigned: 20100824 Reference: CONFIRM: http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=49628 Reference: CONFIRM: http://googlechromereleases.blogspot.com/2010/08/stable-channel-update19.html
The text-editing implementation in Google Chrome before 5.0.375.127 does not properly perform casts, which has unspecified impact and attack vectors.
This flaw also affects upstream WebKit:
https://bugs.webkit.org/showbug.cgi?id=42655 http://trac.webkit.org/changeset/63773
Multiple use-after-free vulnerabilities in WebKit, as used in Apple Safari before 4.1.3 and 5.0.x before 5.0.3, Google Chrome before 5.0.375.127, and webkitgtk before 1.2.6, allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (application crash) via vectors related to improper handling of MIME types by plug-ins.
Google Chrome before 5.0.375.127, and webkitgtk before 1.2.5, does not properly handle SVG documents, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption) or possibly have unspecified other impact via unknown vectors related to state changes when using DeleteButtonController.
Emmanuel Bouillon reported a memory corruption flaw in CUPS daemon. A specially-crafted IPP request can cause daemon to crash or, possibly, execute arbitrary code.

WebKit in Apple Safari before 5.0 on Mac OS X 10.5 through 10.6 and Windows, Apple Safari before 4.1 on Mac OS X 10.4, and Google Chrome before 5.0.375.70 does not properly handle a transformation of a text node that has the IBM1147 character set, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (memory corruption and application crash) via a crafted HTML document containing a BR element, related to a "type checking issue."
Multiple directory traversal vulnerabilities in OpenOffice.org (OOo) 2.x and 3.x before 3.3 allow remote attackers to overwrite arbitrary files via a .. (dot dot) in an entry in (1) an XSLT JAR filter description file, (2) an Extension (aka OXT) file, or unspecified other (3) JAR or (4) ZIP files.
Unspecified vulnerability in the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) in Java SE component allows remote attackers to affect confidentiality, integrity, and availability via Unknown vectors.
Marc Schoenefeld found a flaw in the way OpenOffice.org 3.2.0 and earlier, enforced non-executable permission, when browsing macros, written in Python scripting language. If a local user was tricked into opening a specially-crafted OpenDocument Text (ODT) file, containing macros, and previewed the macro directories structure, it could lead to Python macro execution even when macros execution was disabled.
The browser engine in Mozilla Firefox 3.0.x before 3.0.18 and 3.5.x before 3.5.8, Thunderbird before 3.0.2, and SeaMonkey before 2.0.3 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via vectors related to the nsBlockFrame::StealFrame function in layout/generic/nsBlockFrame.cpp, and unspecified other vectors.
OpenOffice.org (OOo) 2.0.4, 2.4.1, and 3.1.1 does not properly enforce Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) macro security settings, which allows remote attackers to run arbitrary macros via a crafted document.
Multiple directory traversal vulnerabilities in Lintian 1.23.x through 1.23.28, 1.24.x through 1.24.2.1, and 2.x before 2.3.2 allow remote attackers to overwrite arbitrary files or obtain sensitive information via vectors involving (1) control field names, (2) control field values, and (3) control files of patch systems.
Marsh Ray of PhoneFactor has discovered a flaw in the TLS/SSL protocol related to the handling of the session rehandshakes / renegotiations. This flaw can possibly be used in the MITM attacks and allowing an attacker to inject attacker-chosen plain text prefix to the session of the victim.
Further details are available in the "Authentication Gap in TLS Renegotiation" blog post: http://extendedsubset.com/?p=8
A boundary error flaw, possibly leading to a heap-based buffer overflow, was found in the way OpenOffice.org parsed certain records in Microsoft Word documents. An attacker could create a specially-crafted Microsoft Word document, which once opened by a local, unsuspecting user, could cause OpenOffice.org to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code with the permissions of the user running OpenOffice.org.

Integer overflow in the XPMReader::ReadXPM function in filter.vcl/ixpm/svtxpmread.cxx in OpenOffice.org (OOo) before 3.2 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted XPM file that triggers a heap-based buffer overflow.
Heap-based buffer overflow in the GIFLZWDecompressor::GIFLZWDecompressor function in filter.vcl/lgif/decode.cxx in OpenOffice.org (OOo) before 3.2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted GIF file, related to LZW decompression.
