Unspecified vulnerability in Oracle Java SE 7u97, 8u73, and 8u74 allows remote attackers to affect confidentiality, integrity, and availability via unknown vectors related to the Hotspot sub-component.
It was discovered that the Security component of OpenJDK failed to properly check DSA (Digital Signature Algorithm) parameters. The use of keys with incorrect parameters could lead to disclosure of sensitive data.
Mercurial before 3.7.3 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted name when converting a Git repository.
Mercurial before 3.7.3 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted git ext:: URL when cloning a subrepository.
Heap-based buffer overflow in the unhtmlify function in foomatic-rip in foomatic-filters before 4.0.6 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a long job title.
Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the default content option in jquery.ui.tooltip.js in the Tooltip widget in jQuery UI before 1.10.0 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the title attribute, which is not properly handled in the autocomplete combo box demo.
A security flaw was found in the way rhn-migrate-classic-to-rhsm tool of subscription-manager, a suite of tools and libraries for subscription and repository management, performed migration of system profiles, registered with Red Hat Network Classic to Customer Portal Subscription Management (certificate of Red Hat Network Classic server was not verified for validity). A rogue server could use this flaw to conduct man-in-the-middle (MiTM) attacks, possibly leading to their ability to obtain user credentials, that would be used for authentication of that particular user at Red Hat Network Classic server before the system profile(s) migration.
This issue was found by Florian Weimer of Red Hat Product Security Team.
ISC BIND 9.8.x through 9.8.4-P1 and 9.9.x through 9.9.2-P1, in certain configurations involving DNS64 with a Response Policy Zone that lacks an AAAA rewrite rule, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (assertion failure and named daemon exit) via a query for an AAAA record.
PostgreSQL 8.4.x before 8.4.11, 9.0.x before 9.0.7, and 9.1.x before 9.1.3 truncates the common name to only 32 characters when verifying SSL certificates, which allows remote attackers to spoof connections when the host name is exactly 32 characters.
It was reported that hivex [1], a library that can read and write hive files (undocumented binary files that Windows uses to store the Windows Registry on disk), did not properly handle small-sized hive files. An attacker able to supply a hive file of a small size to an application using the hivex library could use this flaw to read, and possibly write, up to 4095 bytes beyond the end of the allocated buffer, potentially resulting in arbitrary code execution with the with the privileges of the user running that application.
This issue has been fixed in upstream version 3.11 of hivex. Upstream patches are available at:

IssueDescription:
An out-of-bounds memory write flaw was found in the way GnuTLS parsed certain ECC (Elliptic Curve Cryptography) certificates or certificate signing requests (CSR). A malicious user could create a specially crafted ECC certificate or a certificate signing request that, when processed by an application compiled against GnuTLS (for example, certtool), could cause that application to crash or execute arbitrary code with the permissions of the user running the application.
The (1) qemuDomainMigratePerform and (2) qemuDomainMigrateFinish2 functions in qemu/qemudriver.c in libvirt do not unlock the domain when an ACL check fails, which allow local users to cause a denial of service via unspecified vectors.
This issue was discovered by Tim Waugh of Red Hat. Tigervnc is affected by same thing as in CVE-2014-6052. A NULL pointer dereference flaw was reported in tigervnc. A malicious VNC server could use this flaw to cause a client to crash.
The moddavsvn Apache HTTPD server module in Apache Subversion 1.7.x before 1.7.19 and 1.8.x before 1.8.11 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and crash) via a request for a URI that triggers a lookup for a virtual transaction name that does not exist.
GNOME Shell 3.14.x before 3.14.1, when the Screen Lock feature is used, does not limit the aggregate memory consumption of all active PrtSc requests, which allows physically proximate attackers to execute arbitrary commands on an unattended workstation by making many PrtSc requests and leveraging a temporary lock outage, and the resulting temporary shell availability, caused by the Linux kernel OOM killer.
A possible stack-based buffer overflow flaw was reported in the Ruby encodes() function from pack.c. From the bug report, this function may be used on data received from a server, and could be triggered remotely.
As the affected stack buffer is a static size on the stack, FORTIFYSOURCE may help mitigate this issue to only be a denial of service.
The original report suggests older versions (such as 1.9.3) are not affected.

The sosendto function in slirp/udp.c in QEMU before 2.1.2 allows local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference) by sending a udp packet with a value of 0 in the source port and address, which triggers access of an uninitialized socket.
The moddavsvn Apache HTTPD server module in Apache Subversion 1.x before 1.7.19 and 1.8.x before 1.8.11 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and server crash) via a REPORT request for a resource that does not exist.
Apache Subversion 1.0.0 through 1.7.x before 1.7.17 and 1.8.x before 1.8.10 uses an MD5 hash of the URL and authentication realm to store cached credentials, which makes it easier for remote servers to obtain the credentials via a crafted authentication realm.
Incomplete blacklist vulnerability in util.c in foomatic-rip in cups-filters 1.0.42 before 1.2.0 and in foomatic-filters in Foomatic 4.0.x allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via (backtick) characters in a print job.

It was discovered that the nssfiles backend for the Name Service Switch in glibc would return incorrect data to applications or corrupt the heap (depending on adjacent heap contents), potentially resulting in arbitrary code execution.
Heap-based buffer overflow in SPICE before 0.12.6 allows guest OS users to cause a denial of service (heap-based memory corruption and QEMU-KVM crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code on the host via QXL commands related to the surfaceid parameter.
