Mozilla Firefox 3.x before 3.0.4, Firefox 2.x before 2.0.0.18, Thunderbird 2.x before 2.0.0.18, and SeaMonkey 1.x before 1.1.13 do not properly escape quote characters used for XML processing, which allows remote attackers to conduct XML injection attacks via the default namespace in an E4X document.
The nsXMLHttpRequest::NotifyEventListeners method in Firefox 3.x before 3.0.4, Firefox 2.x before 2.0.0.18, Thunderbird 2.x before 2.0.0.18, and SeaMonkey 1.x before 1.1.13 allows remote attackers to bypass the same-origin policy and execute arbitrary script via multiple listeners, which bypass the inner window check.
Firefox 3.x before 3.0.4, Firefox 2.x before 2.0.0.18, and SeaMonkey 1.x before 1.1.13 allows remote attackers to bypass the protection mechanism for codebase principals and execute arbitrary script via the -moz-binding CSS property in a signed JAR file.
The hfsplusblockallocate function in fs/hfsplus/bitmap.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.28-rc1 does not check a certain return value from the readmappingpage function before calling kmap, which allows attackers to cause a denial of service (system crash) via a crafted hfsplus filesystem image.
Created attachment 320281 [details] Proposed actualized upstream qemu patch to resolve the Cirrus LGD-54XX "bitblt" heap overflow (CVE-2007-1320)
Jan Niehusmann discovered that the upstream fix for the CVE-2007-1320 is incomplete and still allows local users to cause a heap-based buffer overlow, when connecting via the VNC console.
Steps to reproduce:
No reproducer.
Upstream qemu patch for the initial CVE-2007-1320 issue: https://svn.pardus.org.tr/pardus/2007/applications/emulators/qemu/files/CVE-2007-1320.patch
Proposed upstream correction of this patch - see attachment.
lighttpd before 1.4.20 compares URIs to patterns in the (1) url.redirect and (2) url.rewrite configuration settings before performing URL decoding, which might allow remote attackers to bypass intended access restrictions, and obtain sensitive information or possibly modify data.
moduserdir in lighttpd before 1.4.20, when a case-insensitive operating system or filesystem is used, performs case-sensitive comparisons on filename components in configuration options, which might allow remote attackers to bypass intended access restrictions, as demonstrated by a request for a .PHP file when there is a configuration rule for .php files.
The XPConnect component in Mozilla Firefox before 2.0.0.17 and 3.x before 3.0.2, Thunderbird before 2.0.0.17, and SeaMonkey before 1.1.12 allows remote attackers to "pollute XPCNativeWrappers" and execute arbitrary code with chrome privileges via vectors related to (1) chrome XBL and (2) chrome JS.
Directory traversal vulnerability in Mozilla Firefox before 2.0.0.17 and 3.x before 3.0.2, Thunderbird before 2.0.0.17, and SeaMonkey before 1.1.12 allows remote attackers to bypass "restrictions imposed on local HTML files," and obtain sensitive information and prompt users to write this information into a file, via directory traversal sequences in a resource: URI.
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.
The dochangetype function in fs/namespace.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.22 does not verify that the caller has the CAPSYSADMIN capability, which allows local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service by modifying the properties of a mountpoint.
The Linux kernel before 2.6.25.10 does not properly perform tty operations, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly gain privileges via vectors involving NULL pointer dereference of function pointers in (1) hamradio/6pack.c, (2) hamradio/mkiss.c, (3) irda/irtty-sir.c, (4) pppasync.c, (5) pppsynctty.c, (6) slip.c, (7) wan/x25asy.c, and (8) wireless/strip.c in drivers/net/.

Heap-based buffer overflow in pcrecompile.c in the Perl-Compatible Regular Expression (PCRE) library 7.7 allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a regular expression that begins with an option and contains multiple branches.
Memory leak in the ipip6rcv function in net/ipv6/sit.c in the Linux kernel 2.4 before 2.4.36.5 and 2.6 before 2.6.25.3 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via network traffic to a Simple Internet Transition (SIT) tunnel interface, related to the pskbmaypull and kfreeskb functions, and management of an skb reference count.
Integer signedness error in the zlib extension module in Python 2.5.2 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a negative signed integer, which triggers insufficient memory allocation and a buffer overflow.
Heap-based buffer overflow in the receivesmbraw function in util/sock.c in Samba 3.0.0 through 3.0.29 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted SMB response.
Description of problem:
The Diatheke CGI allows arbitrary command execution in the context of the webserver, e.g. www-data by simply abusing the range parameter.
For example, &range=yes will consume tons of resources on the affected webserver. Escalation of privleges and command shells are left as an exercise to the reader.
From Debian: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=466449
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.
The Kerberos 4 support in KDC in MIT Kerberos 5 (krb5kdc) does not properly clear the unused portion of a buffer when generating an error message, which might allow remote attackers to obtain sensitive information, aka "Uninitialized stack values."
misc.c in splitvt 1.6.6 and earlier does not drop group privileges before executing xprop, which allows local users to gain privileges.
Description of problem: This was disclosed at 26c3.
Fabian mentioned that CVE-2009-1385 has an incorrect fix. The fix he points to is http://git.kernel.org/linus/ea30e11970a96cfe5e32c03a29332554573b4a10
Which fixes a DoS when the frame spans multiple buffers and the last buffer contains less than four bytes. However, if that last fragment is longer than 4 bytes, it will actually be taken into account while the previous fragments will have been ignored. This means we can end up in a situation where a single Ethernet frame has multiple interpretation since at some level it will be considered as a whole and in others the N first bytes will be silently discarded.

Array index error in the gdthreadevent function in drivers/scsi/gdth.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.32-rc8 allows local users to cause a denial of service or possibly gain privileges via a negative event index in an IOCTL request.
Description of problem: Reported by Tavis Ormandy and Julien Tinnes. The SOCKOPSWRAP macro from include/linux/net.h doesn't initialise the sendpage operation in the protoops structure correctly. Leading to a kernel NULL pointer dereference, and thus a local privilege escalation.

Red Hat would like to thank Tavis Ormandy and Julien Tinnes of the Google Security Team for responsibly reporting this flaw.
Buffer underflow in src/http/ngxhttpparse.c in nginx 0.1.0 through 0.5.37, 0.6.x before 0.6.39, 0.7.x before 0.7.62, and 0.8.x before 0.8.15 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via crafted HTTP requests.
libclamav/untar.c in ClamAV before 0.95 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop) via a crafted TAR file that causes (1) clamd and (2) clamscan to hang.
Multiple integer overflows in FreeType 2.3.9 and earlier allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via vectors related to large values in certain inputs in (1) smooth/ftsmooth.c, (2) sfnt/ttcmap.c, and (3) cff/cffload.c.
