FFmpeg could allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the system, caused by an integer signedness error in the fourxmreadheader() function in libavformat/4xm.c. By persuading a victim to open a specially-crafted 4X movie file with a large currenttrack value, a remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to corrupt memory, trigger a NULL pointer dereference and execute arbitrary code on the system.
Untrusted search path vulnerability in gedit's Python module allows local users to execute arbitrary code via a Trojan horse Python file in the current working directory, related to an erroneous setting of sys.path by the PySysSetArgv function.

Debian bug report for similar eog issue: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=504352#4
Proposed patch: Not sure, if gedi'ts upstream has been reported about this issue. The Debian patch for similar eog's Python related issue, available at:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?msg=5;filename=02sanitizesys.path.patch;att=1;bug=504352
should be sufficient to resolve this issue.
The PNG reference library (aka libpng) before 1.0.43, and 1.2.x before 1.2.35, as used in pngcrush and other applications, allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted PNG file that triggers a free of an uninitialized pointer in (1) the pngreadpng function, (2) pCAL chunk handling, or (3) setup of 16-bit gamma tables.
Red Hat Cluster Project 2.x allows local users to modify or overwrite arbitrary files via symlink attacks on files in /tmp, involving unspecified components in Resource Group Manager (aka rgmanager) before 2.03.09-1, gfs2-utils before 2.03.09-1, and CMAN - The Cluster Manager before 2.03.09-1 on Fedora 9.
The multipart processor in ModSecurity before 2.5.9 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a multipart form datapost request with a missing part header name, which triggers a NULL pointer dereference.
The PDF XSS protection feature in ModSecurity before 2.5.8 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (Apache httpd crash) via a request for a PDF file that does not use the GET method.
