jabberd2 before 2.2.14 does not properly detect recursion during entity expansion, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory and CPU consumption) via a crafted XML document containing a large number of nested entity references, a similar issue to CVE-2003-1564.
Multiple use-after-free vulnerabilities in OpenTTD 1.0.x before 1.0.5 allow (1) remote attackers to cause a denial of service (invalid write and daemon crash) by abruptly disconnecting during transmission of the map from the server, related to network/networkserver.cpp; (2) remote attackers to cause a denial of service (invalid read and daemon crash) by abruptly disconnecting, related to network/networkserver.cpp; and (3) remote servers to cause a denial of service (invalid read and application crash) by forcing a disconnection during the join process, related to network/network.cpp.
Array index error in the FEBlend::apply function in WebCore/platform/graphics/filters/FEBlend.cpp in WebKit, as used in Google Chrome before 7.0.517.44, webkitgtk before 1.2.6, and other products, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted SVG document, related to effects in the application of filters.

Google Chrome before 7.0.517.44 does not properly handle large text areas, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted HTML document.
Description of problem:
When parsing a peer's supported HMAC authentication options in the sctpauthasocgethmac() function, a malicious peer can craft their HMAC array in such a way as to cause memory corruption (out-of-bounds read followed by use of retrieved out-of-bounds data), which at the very least could cause a denial of service via kernel panic, and possibly worse. It appears this could be triggered remotely when connecting to a malicious peer, or locally by a user acting as both endpoints. In both cases, the "authenable" sysctl must be set in order to trigger the bug.

Description of problem: Kees found a flaw in the i915 GEM ioctl interface that does not check destination addresses during memory copies, allowing arbitrary memory writes into the kernel. The flaws are in drivers/gpu/drm/i915/i915gem.c in i915gempreadioctl() and i915gempwriteioctl(), which do no accessok() checks on args->dataptr. (Actually, there is one check path: i915gemgttpwritefast() does the check, but none of the other helpers do.).
Acknowledgements:
Red Hat would like to thank Kees Cook for reporting this issue.
Sauli Pahlman of CERT-FI provided us with fuzzed PDF file which causes xpdf / poppler PDF parser to crash.
The crash is caused by an attempt to dereference uninitialized Gfx::parser pointer in Gfx::getPos(), which assumes parser is either NULL or valid Parser pointer.

Use-after-free vulnerability in WebKit in Apple Safari before 4.0.5 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (application crash) via an HTML document with improperly nested tags.
Buffer overflow in the gdImageStringFTEx function in gdft.c in GD Graphics Library 2.0.33 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted string with a JIS encoded font.
