Bodo Möller, Thai Duong and Krzysztof Kotowicz of Google discovered a flaw in the design of SSL version 3.0 that would allow an attacker to calculate the plaintext of secure connections, allowing, for example, secure HTTP cookies to be stolen.

The PEARREST class in REST.php in PEAR in PHP through 5.6.0 allows local users to write to arbitrary files via a symlink attack on a (1) rest.cachefile or (2) rest.cacheid file in /tmp/pear/cache/, related to the retrieveCacheFirst and useLocalCache functions.
The session-restore feature in Mozilla Firefox before 28.0 and SeaMonkey before 2.25 does not consider the Content Security Policy of a data: URL, which makes it easier for remote attackers to conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks via a crafted document that is accessed after a browser restart.
The startauthentication function in lightdm-gtk-greeter.c in LightDM GTK+ Greeter before 1.7.1 does not properly handle the return value from the lightdmgreetergetauthenticationuser function, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference) via an empty username.
java.lang.invoke.MethodHandles did not perform access checks correctly. An untrusted Java application or applet could use this to set value of a final field.
The dissectmplsechotlvddmap function in epan/dissectors/packet-mpls-echo.c in the MPLS Echo dissector in Wireshark 1.8.x before 1.8.6 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop) via invalid Sub-tlv data.
The CSN.1 dissector in Wireshark 1.8.x before 1.8.6 does not properly manage function pointers, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a malformed packet.
The RTPS and RTPS2 dissectors in Wireshark 1.6.x before 1.6.14 and 1.8.x before 1.8.6 allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a malformed packet.
The acnadddmpdata function in epan/dissectors/packet-acn.c in the ACN 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 (divide-by-zero error and application crash) via an invalid count value in ACNDMPADTDRE DMP data.
The CIMD 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 (application crash) via a malformed packet.
The TCP dissector in Wireshark 1.8.x before 1.8.6 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a malformed packet.
Integer signedness error in the dissectmountdirpathcall function in epan/dissectors/packet-mount.c in the Mount dissector in Wireshark 1.6.x before 1.6.14 and 1.8.x before 1.8.6, when nfsfilenamesnooping is enabled, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a negative length value.
The dissectserverinfo function in epan/dissectors/packet-ms-mms.c in the MS-MMS dissector in Wireshark 1.6.x before 1.6.14 and 1.8.x before 1.8.6 does not properly manage string lengths, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a malformed packet that (1) triggers an integer overflow or (2) has embedded '\0' characters in a string.
