NetworkManager 0.9.x does not pin a certificate's subject to an ESSID when 802.11X authentication is used.
In NetworkManager 0.9.2.0, when a new wireless network was created with WPA/WPA2 security in AdHoc mode, it created an open/insecure network.
The prepreprocessreq function in dotgsreq.c in the Key Distribution Center (KDC) in MIT Kerberos 5 (aka krb5) before 1.10.5 does not properly perform service-principal realm referral, which allows remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and daemon crash) via a crafted TGS-REQ request.
The AMPQ dissector in Wireshark 1.6.x before 1.6.14 and 1.8.x before 1.8.6 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop) via a malformed packet.
The DTLS dissector in Wireshark 1.6.x before 1.6.14 and 1.8.x before 1.8.6 does not validate the fragment offset before invoking the reassembly state machine, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a large offset value that triggers write access to an invalid memory location.
The dissectdiagnosticrequest function in epan/dissectors/packet-reload.c in the REsource LOcation And Discovery (aka RELOAD) dissector in Wireshark 1.8.x before 1.8.6 uses an incorrect integer data type, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop) via crafted integer values in a packet.
The dissecthartip function in epan/dissectors/packet-hartip.c in the HART/IP dissector in Wireshark 1.8.x before 1.8.6 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop) via a packet with a header that is too short.
The FCSP dissector in Wireshark 1.6.x before 1.6.14 and 1.8.x before 1.8.6 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop) via a malformed packet.
Google Chrome before 22.0.1229.79 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (DOM topology corruption) via a crafted document.
FFmpeg, as used in Google Chrome before 22.0.1229.79, does not properly handle OGG containers, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service or possibly have unspecified other impact via unknown vectors, related to a "wild pointer" issue.
Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in Google Chrome before 22.0.1229.79 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via vectors related to the Google V8 bindings, aka "Universal XSS (UXSS)."
Skia, as used in Google Chrome before 22.0.1229.79, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read) via unspecified vectors.
The extension system in Google Chrome before 22.0.1229.79 does not properly handle modal dialogs, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via unspecified vectors.
The SPDY implementation in Google Chrome before 21.0.1180.89 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via unspecified vectors.
Race condition in Google Chrome before 21.0.1180.89 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service or possibly have unspecified other impact via vectors involving improper interaction between worker processes and an XMLHttpRequest (aka XHR) object.
Google Chrome before 21.0.1180.89 does not properly perform line breaking, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read) via a crafted document.
Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in an SSL interstitial page in Google Chrome before 21.0.1180.89 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via unspecified vectors.
An XML External Entities (XXE) attack was found in the way xmlparse routine, used for producing of xml data type value from character data, of PostgreSQL, an advanced Object-Relational database management system (DBMS), performed parsing of provided character data. An unprivileged database user could issue a specially-crafted SQL query to the PostgreSQL server that, when processed could lead to attacker's ability to read arbitrary system files, accessible with privileges of the user running the PostgreSQL server.

The pngpushreadzTXt function in pngpread.c in libpng 1.0.x before 1.0.58, 1.2.x before 1.2.48, 1.4.x before 1.4.10, and 1.5.x before 1.5.10 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read) via a large availin field value in a PNG image.
The TIFFGetEXIFProperties function in coders/tiff.c in ImageMagick before 6.7.6-3 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read and crash) via a crafted EXIF IFD in a TIFF image.
envvars (aka envvars-std) in the Apache HTTP Server before 2.4.2 places a zero-length directory name in the LDLIBRARYPATH, which allows local users to gain privileges via a Trojan horse DSO in the current working directory during execution of apachectl.
An cross-site scripting (XSS) flaw was found in the way phpPgAdmin, a web-based PostgreSQL database administration tool, performed presentation of the default list of functions, being present in the database, to the user upon request. A remote attacker could provide a specially-crafted web page, which once visited by an unsuspecting, valid phpPgAdmin user could lead to arbitrary HTML or web script execution in the context of logged in phpPgAdmin user.

A security flaw was found in the way osc, the Python language based command line client for the openSUSE build service, displayed build logs and build status for particular build. A rogue repository server could use this flaw to modify window's title, or possibly execute arbitrary commands or overwrite files via a specially-crafted build log or build status output containing an escape sequence for a terminal emulator.

Sebastian Krahmer of the SUSE Security Team reported that systemd-logind, a part of the systemd service and system manager, did not create certain special files in a secure way. systemd-logind is responsible for managing and tracking user login sessions, and if a user were to log into the X11 desktop, it creates entries in /run/user/[username]/X11, where /run/user/[username] is a user-owned directory. Because systemd-logind does not create the entries in a secure fashion, a malicious user could replace /run/user/[username]/X11 with a symlink to another root-owned directory, such as /etc/pam.d or /etc/cron.d. This would cause a symlink named "display" to be created in the target directory, which is a symlink to a user-owned file (/tmp/.X11-unix/X0). Using further attack vectors and this symlink, the malicious user could obtain a root shell, if he could beat two separate race conditions.
