Open redirect vulnerability in the search script in Trac before 0.10.5 allows remote attackers to redirect users to arbitrary web sites and conduct phishing attacks via a URL in the q parameter, possibly related to the quickjump function.
Integer overflow in the rtlallocateMemory function in sal/rtl/source/allocglobal.c in the memory allocator in OpenOffice.org (OOo) 2.4.1, on 64-bit platforms, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted document, related to a "numeric truncation error," a different vulnerability than CVE-2008-2152.
src/sdp.c in bluez-libs 3.30 in BlueZ, and other bluez-libs before 3.34 and bluez-utils before 3.34 versions, does not validate string length fields in SDP packets, which allows remote SDP servers to cause a denial of service or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted length field that triggers excessive memory allocation or a buffer over-read.
nsFrameManager in Firefox 3.x before 3.0.4, Firefox 2.x before 2.0.0.18, Thunderbird 2.x before 2.0.0.18, and SeaMonkey 1.x before 1.1.13 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code by modifying properties of a file input element while it is still being initialized, then using the blur method to access uninitialized memory.
The gnutlsx509verifycertificate function in lib/x509/verify.c in libgnutls in GnuTLS before 2.6.1 trusts certificate chains in which the last certificate is an arbitrary trusted, self-signed certificate, which allows man-in-the-middle attackers to insert a spoofed certificate for any Distinguished Name (DN).
The ACL plugin in Dovecot before 1.1.4 treats negative access rights as if they are positive access rights, which allows attackers to bypass intended access restrictions.
Description of problem: Bitlbee 1.2.3 was released, see the following changelog:
Version 1.2.3: - Fixed one more flaw similar to the previous hijacking bug, caused by incon- sistent handling of the USTATUSIDENTIFIED state. All code touching these variables was reviewed and should be correct now.
Finished 7 Sep 2008
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): bitlbee-1.2.2-1
Actual results: bitlbee-1.2.2-1
Expected results: bitlbee-1.2.3-1 ;-)
A certain Fedora patch for the utrace subsystem in the Linux kernel before 2.6.26.5-28 on Fedora 8, and before 2.6.26.5-45 on Fedora 9, allows local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash or hang) via a call to the utracecontrol function.
Drupal security team released an advisory describing multiple security issues affecting Drupal 5.x and 6.x - SA-2008-044:
http://drupal.org/node/280571
Advisory includes: - cross site scripting issues - cross site request forgeries - session fixation issues - SQL injection
Fixed in upstream versions: 5.8 and 6.3
Upstream patches for 5.7/6.2: http://drupal.org/files/sa-2008-044/SA-2008-044-5.7.patch http://drupal.org/files/sa-2008-044/SA-2008-044-6.2.patch
Stack-based buffer overflow in the readarticle function in getarticle.c in newsx 1.6 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a news article containing a large number of lines starting with a period.
Session fixation vulnerability in Drupal 5.x before 5.9 and 6.x before 6.3, when contributed modules "terminate the current request during a login event," allows remote attackers to hijack web sessions via unknown vectors.
Cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in Drupal 5.x before 5.8 and 6.x before 6.3 allows remote attackers to perform administrative actions via vectors involving deletion of "translated strings."
SQL injection vulnerability in the Schema API in Drupal 6.x before 6.3 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary SQL commands via vectors related to "an inappropriate placeholder for 'numeric' fields."
Cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in Drupal 6.x before 6.3 allows remote attackers to perform administrative actions via vectors involving deletion of OpenID identities.
The Drupal filterxssadmin function in 5.x before 5.8 and 6.x before 6.3 does not "prevent use of the object HTML tag in administrator input," which has unknown impact and attack vectors, probably related to an insufficient cross-site scripting (XSS) protection mechanism.
Mozilla Firefox before 2.0.0.15 and SeaMonkey before 1.1.10 do not properly escape HTML in file:// URLs in directory listings, which allows remote attackers to conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks or have unspecified other impact via a crafted filename.
cbrPager before 0.9.17 allows user-assisted remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via shell metacharacters in a (1) ZIP (aka .cbz) or (2) RAR (aka .cbr) archive filename.
Heap-based buffer overflow in pcrecompile.c in the Perl-Compatible Regular Expression (PCRE) library 7.7 allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a regular expression that begins with an option and contains multiple branches.
The approxyhttpprocessresponse function in modproxyhttp.c in the modproxy module in the Apache HTTP Server 2.0.63 and 2.2.8 does not limit the number of forwarded interim responses, which allows remote HTTP servers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via a large number of interim responses.
The GENERATESEED macro in PHP 4.x before 4.4.8 and 5.x before 5.2.5, when running on 64-bit systems, performs a multiplication that generates a portion of zero bits during conversion due to insufficient precision, which produces 24 bits of entropy and simplifies brute force attacks against protection mechanisms that use the rand and mtrand functions.
Comix 3.6.4 creates temporary directories with predictable names, which allows local users to cause an unspecified denial of service.
phpMyAdmin before 2.11.5.1 stores the MySQL (1) username and (2) password, and the (3) Blowfish secret key, in cleartext in a Session file under /tmp, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information.
The silcpkcs1decode function in the silccrypt library (silcpkcs1.c) in Secure Internet Live Conferencing (SILC) Toolkit before 1.1.7, SILC Client before 1.1.4, and SILC Server before 1.1.2 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted PKCS#1 message, which triggers an integer underflow, signedness error, and a buffer overflow. NOTE: the researcher describes this as an integer overflow, but CVE uses the "underflow" term in cases of wraparound from unsigned subtraction.
Race condition in the directory notification subsystem (dnotify) in Linux kernel 2.6.x before 2.6.24.6, and 2.6.25 before 2.6.25.1, allows local users to cause a denial of service (OOPS) and possibly gain privileges via unspecified vectors.
ViewVC before 1.0.5 provides revision metadata without properly checking whether access was intended, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information by reading (1) forbidden pathnames in the revision view, (2) log history that can only be reached by traversing a forbidden object, or (3) forbidden diff view path parameters.
ViewVC before 1.0.5 stores sensitive information under the web root with insufficient access control, which allows remote attackers to read files and list folders under the hidden CVSROOT folder.
ViewVC before 1.0.5 includes "all-forbidden" files within search results that list CVS or Subversion (SVN) commits, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information.
Directory traversal vulnerability in WEBrick in Ruby 1.8 before 1.8.5-p115 and 1.8.6-p114, and 1.9 through 1.9.0-1, when running on systems that support backslash (\) path separators or case-insensitive file names, allows remote attackers to access arbitrary files via (1) "..%5c" (encoded backslash) sequences or (2) filenames that match patterns in the :NondisclosureName option.
Description of problem:
The Diatheke CGI allows arbitrary command execution in the context of the webserver, e.g. www-data by simply abusing the range parameter.
For example, &range=yes will consume tons of resources on the affected webserver. Escalation of privleges and command shells are left as an exercise to the reader.
From Debian: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=466449
The excelreadHLINK function in plugins/excel/ms-excel-read.c in Gnome Office Gnumeric before 1.8.1 allows user-assisted remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted XLS file containing XLS HLINK opcodes, possibly because of an integer signedness error that leads to an integer overflow. NOTE: some of these details are obtained from third party information.
