An OOB read flaw was found in the RFC 3161 Public Key Infrastructure Time-Stamp Protocol code of OpenSSL. An attacker could use this flaw to cause the openssl binary to crash when specially-crafted time-stamp file is parsed via the "openssl ts" command.

Upstream commit:

master: https://github.com/openssl/openssl/commit/0ed26acce328ec16a3aa635f1ca37365e8c7403a 1.0.1: https://github.com/openssl/openssl/commit/6adf409c7432b90c06d9890787fe56c48f2a16e7

A flaw was found in the way pi to pi futex requeueing was handled.

A local unprivileged user can use this flaw to increase their privileges on the system.

A Linux kernel built with a Generic IEEE 802.11 Networking Stack (CONFIGMAC80211) is vulnerable to a crash caused by a race condition in frame transmission path and station wakeup event, in case when it's sleeping. The crash occurs because, mac80211 stack buffers frames when the station is sleeping, and the same are transmitted upon the station's(STA) wakeup. At this point, a buffered TX frame list is being emptied, while a new frame is being added to the RX list.

A remote unprivileged user/program could use this flaw to crash the system kernel, resulting in DoS.

It was discovered that the Datagram TLS (DTLS) implementation could fail to release memory in certain cases. A malicious DTLS client could cause a DTLS server using OpenSSL to consume an excessive amount of memory and, possibly, exit unexpectedly after exhausting all available memory.

An integer underflow flaw leading to a buffer over-read was found in the way OpenSSL parsed TLS session tickets. A remote attacker could use this flaw to crash a TLS server using OpenSSL if it used SHA-512 as HMAC for session tickets.

A flaw was found in the Datagram TLS (DTLS) replay protection implementation in OpenSSL. A remote attacker could possibly use this flaw to make a DTLS server using OpenSSL to reject further packets sent from a DTLS client over an established DTLS connection.

apache. Multiple issues existed in Apache. These were addressed by updating Apache to version 2.4.25.

Apache Tomcat 7.x through 7.0.70 and 8.x through 8.5.4, when the CGI Servlet is enabled, follows RFC 3875 section 4.1.18 and therefore does not protect applications from the presence of untrusted client data in the HTTPPROXY environment variable, which might allow remote attackers to redirect an application's outbound HTTP traffic to an arbitrary proxy server via a crafted Proxy header in an HTTP request, aka an "httpoxy" issue. NOTE: the vendor states "A mitigation is planned for future releases of Tomcat, tracked as CVE-2016-5388"; in other words, this is not a CVE ID for a vulnerability.

A flaw was found in the way Linux kernel's floppy driver treated userspace provided data in certain error code path while processing FDRAWCMD ioctl command. An local user with write access to /dev/fdX could use this flaw to kfree() arbitrary data. (CVE-2014-1737)

It was found that Linux kernel's floppy driver leaked internal kernel memory addresses to userspace during processing of FDRAWCMD ioctl command. An local user with write access to /dev/fdX could use this flaw to get information about kernel heap arrangment. (CVE-2014-1738)

An local user with write access to /dev/fdX could use these two flaws (CVE-2014-1737 in combination with CVE-2014-1738) to escalate their privileges on the system.

A vulnerability was found in the Linux kernel. Payloads of NM entries are not supposed to contain NUL. When such entry is processed, only the part prior to the first NUL goes into the concatenation (i.e. the directory entry name being encoded by a bunch of NM entries). The process stops when the amount collected so far + the claimed amount in the current NM entry exceed 254.

However, the value returned as the total length is the sum of claimed sizes, not the actual amount collected. And that can grow pretty large - not unlimited, since you'd need to put CE entries in between to be able to get more than the maximum that could be contained in one isofs directory entry / continuation chunk and the process stops once it had encountered 32 CEs, but you can get about 8Kb easily. And that's what will be passed to readdir callback as the name length. 8Kb copytouser() from a buffer allocated by getfreepage()

A use after free vulnerability was found in pppunregisterchannel function. This is triggered when network namespace is removed while pppasync channel is still registered in it and pppunregisterchannel() tries to access its per-netns data in the defunct namespace.

An attacker who could control this memory that is being used in the defunct namespace could create a denial of service by spinlocking a CPU.

An unprivileged local user could use this flaw to induce kernel memory corruption on the system, leading to a crash. Due to the nature of the flaw, privilege escalation cannot be fully ruled out, although we believe it is unlikely.

Multiple unspecified vulnerabilities in the browser engine in Mozilla Firefox before 45.0 and Firefox ESR 38.x before 38.7 allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via unknown vectors.

The graphite2::TtfUtil::CmapSubtable12Lookup function in TtfUtil.cpp in Graphite 2 before 1.3.6, as used in Mozilla Firefox before 45.0 and Firefox ESR 38.x before 38.7, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (buffer over-read) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted Graphite smart font, a different vulnerability than CVE-2016-2797.

The graphite2::GlyphCache::glyph function in Graphite 2 before 1.3.6, as used in Mozilla Firefox before 45.0 and Firefox ESR 38.x before 38.7, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (buffer over-read) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted Graphite smart font.
