In SQLite through 3.29.0 whereLoopAddBtreeIndex in sqlite3.c can crash a browser or other application because of missing validation of a sqlitestat1 sz field aka a "severe division by zero in the query planner."
An out-of-bounds read flaw was found in the way Expat processed certain input. A remote attacker could send specially crafted XML that, when parsed by an application using the Expat library, would cause that application to crash or, possibly, execute arbitrary code with the permission of the user running the application.
It was found that original patch for issues CVE-2015-1283 and CVE-2015-2716 used overflow checks that could be optimized out by some compilers applying certain optimization settings, which can cause the vulnerability to remain even after applying the patch.
One pattern in the fix for CVE-2015-1283/CVE-2015-2716 is:
/ bufferSize is positive here / do { bufferSize = 2; } while (bufferSize < neededSize && bufferSize > 0); if (bufferSize <= 0) { errorCode = XMLERRORNOMEMORY; return NULL;
Any of the modern optimizing compiler, IF able to infer that bufferSize is initially positive (which is true but not obvious to see through local reasoning), will eliminate bufferSize > 0 as always true when the execution is defined, and bufferSize <= 0 as always false when the execution is defined.
Without knowing that bufferSize starts positive, an optimizing compiler could also move the test bufferSize > 0 out of the loop, that is, compile the code as if it had been written:
if (bufferSize <= 0) errorCode = XMLERRORNOMEMORY; return NULL; else { do { bufferSize = 2; } while (bufferSize < neededSize); }
Both cases leads to not eliminating the vulnerability.

An issue was discovered in the server in OpenLDAP before 2.4.48. When the server administrator delegates rootDN (database admin) privileges for certain databases but wants to maintain isolation (e.g., for multi-tenant deployments), slapd does not properly stop a rootDN from requesting authorization as an identity from another database during a SASL bind or with a proxyAuthz (RFC 4370) control. (It is not a common configuration to deploy a system where the server administrator and a DB administrator enjoy different levels of trust.)
contrib/slapd-modules/nops/nops.c in OpenLDAP through 2.4.45, when both the nops module and the memberof overlay are enabled, attempts to free a buffer that was allocated on the stack, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (slapd crash) via a member MODDN operation.
servers/slapd/back-mdb/search.c in OpenLDAP through 2.4.44 is prone to a double free vulnerability. A user with access to search the directory can crash slapd by issuing a search including the Paged Results control with a page size of 0.
libldap in certain third-party OpenLDAP packages has a certificate-validation flaw when the third-party package is asserting RFC6125 support. It considers CN even when there is a non-matching subjectAltName (SAN). This is fixed in, for example, openldap-2.4.46-10.el8 in Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
A Reflected Cross-Site Scripting vulnerability in McAfee Policy Auditor prior to 6.5.2 allows a remote unauthenticated attacker to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the profileNodeID request parameters. The malicious script is reflected unmodified into the Policy Auditor web-based interface which could lead to the extraction of end user session token or login credentials. These may be used to access additional security-critical applications or conduct arbitrary cross-domain requests.
