Multiple unspecified vulnerabilities in the browser engine in Mozilla Firefox before 26.0, Firefox ESR 24.x before 24.2, Thunderbird before 24.2, and SeaMonkey before 2.23 allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via unknown vectors.
Use-after-free vulnerability in the PresShell::DispatchSynthMouseMove function in Mozilla Firefox before 26.0, Firefox ESR 24.x before 24.2, Thunderbird before 24.2, and SeaMonkey before 2.23 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (heap memory corruption) via vectors involving synthetic mouse movement, related to the RestyleManager::GetHoverGeneration function.
Use-after-free vulnerability in the nsNodeUtils::LastRelease function in the table-editing user interface in the editor component in Mozilla Firefox before 26.0, Firefox ESR 24.x before 24.2, Thunderbird before 24.2, and SeaMonkey before 2.23 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by triggering improper garbage collection.
The JavaScript implementation in Mozilla Firefox before 26.0, Firefox ESR 24.x before 24.2, Thunderbird before 24.2, and SeaMonkey before 2.23 does not properly enforce certain typeset restrictions on the generation of GetElementIC typed array stubs, which has unspecified impact and remote attack vectors.
It was reported [1] that running strings, nm or objdump on a constructed PE file [2] leads to out-of bounds write to an unitialized memory area. Upstream path for this issue is at [3].

A heap overflow was reborted [1] when running objdump on a specially crafted PE executable [2]. Upstream patches that address this are at [3] and [4].

Directory traversal vulnerability allowing random files deleteion/creation was reported [1] in binutils. Upstream patch is in [2]. Reproducer is available in https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/showbug.cgi?id=17552#c0

A flaw was found in the way ansi cprng implementation in the Linux kernel processed non-block size aligned requests. If several small requests are made that are less than the instances block size, the remainder for loop code doesn't increment randdatavalid in the last iteration, meaning that the last bytes in the randdata buffer gets reused on the subsequent smaller-than-a-block request for random data.

Nathaniel McCallum reported that pyrad was using Python's random module in a number of places to generate pseudo-random data. In the case of the authenticator data, it was being used to secure a password sent over the wire. Because Python's random module is not really suited for this purpose (not random enough), it could lead to password hashing that may be predictable.
This has been corrected in upstream's forthcoming version 2.1 via:

The scipy.weave component in SciPy before 0.12.1 creates insecure temporary directories.
pip before 1.3 allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on a file in the /tmp/pip-build temporary directory.
(1) core/tests/testmemmap.py, (2) core/tests/testmultiarray.py, (3) f2py/f2py2e.py, and (4) lib/tests/testio.py in NumPy before 1.8.1 allow local users to write to arbitrary files via a symlink attack on a temporary file.
An eval() vulnerability exists in Python Software Foundation Djblets 0.7.21 and Beanbag Review Board before 1.7.15 when parsing JSON requests.
A NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in the way LibVNCServer before 0.9.9 handled certain ClientCutText message. A remote attacker could use this flaw to crash the VNC server by sending a specially crafted ClientCutText message from a VNC client.
connection.c in Bip before 0.8.9 does not properly close sockets, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (file descriptor consumption and crash) via multiple failed SSL handshakes, a different vulnerability than CVE-2013-4550. NOTE: this issue was SPLIT from CVE-2013-4550 because it is a different type of issue.
gksu-polkit: permissive PolicyKit policy configuration file allows privilege escalation
fedup 0.9.0 in Fedora 19, 20, and 21 uses a temporary directory with a static name for its download cache, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (prevention of system updates).
Mozilla Firefox before 26.0 and SeaMonkey before 2.23 do not properly consider the sandbox attribute of an IFRAME element during processing of a contained OBJECT element, which allows remote attackers to bypass intended sandbox restrictions via a crafted web site.
Multiple unspecified vulnerabilities in the browser engine in Mozilla Firefox before 26.0 and SeaMonkey before 2.23 allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via unknown vectors.
Mozilla Firefox before 26.0 does not properly remove the Application Installation doorhanger, which makes it easier for remote attackers to spoof a Web App installation site by controlling the timing of page navigation.
Multiple integer overflows in the binary-search implementation in SpiderMonkey in Mozilla Firefox before 26.0 and SeaMonkey before 2.23 might allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds array access) or possibly have unspecified other impact via crafted JavaScript code.
The RFC 5011 implementation in rdata.c in ISC BIND 9.7.x and 9.8.x before 9.8.5-P2, 9.8.6b1, 9.9.x before 9.9.3-P2, and 9.9.4b1, and DNSco BIND 9.9.3-S1 before 9.9.3-S1-P1 and 9.9.4-S1b1, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (assertion failure and named daemon exit) via a query with a malformed RDATA section that is not properly handled during construction of a log message, as exploited in the wild in July 2013.
Request::getHost() poisoning
php-symfony2-Validator has loss of information during serialization
The CentralNotice extension for MediaWiki before 1.19.9, 1.20.x before 1.20.8, and 1.21.x before 1.21.3 sets the Cache-Control header to cache session cookies when a user is autocreated, which allows remote attackers to authenticate as the created user.
Bip before 0.8.9, when running as a daemon, writes SSL handshake errors to an unexpected file descriptor that was previously associated with stderr before stderr has been closed, which allows remote attackers to write to other sockets and have an unspecified impact via a failed SSL handshake, a different vulnerability than CVE-2011-5268. NOTE: some sources originally mapped this CVE to two different types of issues; this CVE has since been SPLIT, producing CVE-2011-5268.
