An issue was found in the Linux kernel ipv6 implementation of GRE tunnels which allows a remote attacker to trigger an out-of-bounds access. At this time we understand no trust barrier has been crossed and there is no security implications in this flaw.

A flaw was found in the linux kernels implementation of DCCP protocol in which a local user could create influence timing in which a skbuff could be used after it had been freed by the kernel. An attacker is able to craft structures allocated in this free memory will be able to create memory corruption, privilege escalation or crash the system. An attacker must have a local account access on the system, this is not a remote attack. An attack requires IPV6 support to be enabled in the system.

A buffer overflow was discovered in tpacketrcv() function in the Linux kernel since v4.6-rc1 through v4.13. A number of socket-related syscalls can be made to set up a configuration when each packet received by a network interface can cause writing up to 10 bytes to a kernel memory outside of a kernel buffer. This can cause unspecified kernel data corruption effects, including damage of in-memory and on-disk XFS data.

The parsecharstrings function in type1/t1load.c in FreeType 2 before 2.7 does not ensure that a font contains a glyph name, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (heap-based buffer over-read) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted file.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernels function pathopenat() in which would incorrectly clear up twice (as part of pathlookupat() called by dotmpfile(). Doing so again can lead to double fput(). This can lead to a use-after free condition.

The cdfcountchain function in cdf.c in file before 5.19, as used in the Fileinfo component in PHP before 5.4.30 and 5.5.x before 5.5.14, does not properly validate sector-count data, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a crafted CDF file.
Invalid pointer dereference flaws were found in the way file, utility for determining of file types processed header section for certain Composite Document Format (CDF) files. A remote attacker could provide a specially-crafted CDF file, which once inspected by the file utility of the victim would lead to file executable crash.

The gmp plugin in strongSwan before 5.5.3 does not properly validate RSA public keys before calling mpzpowmsec, which allows remote peers to cause a denial of service (floating point exception and process crash) via a crafted certificate.
An error in argument length checking in JavaScript, leading to potential integer overflows or other bounds checking issues.
When the Mozilla Updater is run, if the Updater's log file in the working directory points to a hardlink, data can be appended to an arbitrary local file. This vulnerability requires local system access. Note: this issue only affects Windows operating systems.
A heap-buffer-overflow in Cairo when processing SVG content caused by compiler optimization, resulting in a potentially exploitable crash.
A same-origin policy bypass with local shortcut files to load arbitrary local content from disk.
An existing mitigation of timing side-channel attacks is insufficient in some circumstances. This issue is addressed in Network Security Services (NSS) 3.26.1.
Memory safety bugs were reported in Firefox 49 and Firefox ESR 45.4. Some of these bugs showed evidence of memory corruption and we presume that with enough effort that some of these could be exploited to run arbitrary code. This vulnerability affects Thunderbird < 45.5, Firefox ESR < 45.5, and Firefox < 50.

A use-after-free vulnerability can occur when flushing and resizing layout because the "PressShell" object has been freed while still in use. This results in a potentially exploitable crash during these operations. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 57, Firefox ESR < 52.5, and Thunderbird < 52.5.
The libtremor library has the same flaw as CVE-2018-5146. This library is used by Firefox in place of libvorbis on Android and ARM platforms. This vulnerability affects Firefox ESR < 52.7.2 and Firefox < 59.0.1.
A vulnerability was found in libevent. There is a stack-buffer overflow in evutil.c.

A use-after-free vulnerability when using an incorrect URL during the reloading of a docshell. This results in a potentially exploitable crash.
A use-after-free vulnerability with content viewer listeners that results in a potentially exploitable crash.
A use-after-free vulnerability during video control operations when a "<track>" element holds a reference to an older window if that window has been replaced in the DOM. This results in a potentially exploitable crash. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 54, Firefox ESR < 52.2, and Thunderbird < 52.2.
A use-after-free vulnerability during specific user interactions with the input method editor (IME) in some languages due to how events are handled. This results in a potentially exploitable crash but would require specific user interaction to trigger.
An out-of-bounds read in WebGL with a maliciously crafted "ImageInfo" object during WebGL operations. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 54, Firefox ESR < 52.2, and Thunderbird < 52.2.
A use-after-free and use-after-scope vulnerability when logging errors from headers for XML HTTP Requests (XHR). This could result in a potentially exploitable crash.
