Vulnerability in the MySQL Server component of Oracle MySQL (subcomponent: Server: MyISAM ). Supported versions that are affected are 5.5.53 and earlier, 5.6.34 and earlier and 5.7.16 and earlier. Difficult to exploit vulnerability allows low privileged attacker with logon to the infrastructure where MySQL Server executes to compromise MySQL Server. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized access to critical data or complete access to all MySQL Server accessible data.

GStreamer before 1.4.5, as used in Mozilla Firefox before 38.0, Firefox ESR 31.x before 31.7, and Thunderbird before 31.7 on Linux, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (buffer over-read and application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via crafted H.264 video data in an m4v file.
A NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in libtasn1's asn1readvaluetype() / asn1readvalue() function. If an application called the function with a NULL value for an ivalue argument to determine the amount of memory needed to store data to be read from the ASN.1 input, libtasn1 could incorrectly attempt to dereference the NULL pointer, causing an application using the library to crash.
The libtasn1 library is used by the GnuTLS library to parse X.509 certificates. The gnutls packages in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 and earlier use bundled libtasn1, packages in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 and later depend on the library provided by a separate libtasn1 package.

Multiple buffer boundary check issues were discovered in libtasn1 library, causing it to read beyond the boundary of an allocated buffer. An untrusted ASN.1 input could cause an application using the library to crash.

Heap-based buffer overflow in the readu32 function in Mozilla Firefox before 29.0, Firefox ESR 24.x before 24.5, Thunderbird before 24.5, and SeaMonkey before 2.26 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read and application crash) via a crafted JPEG image.
The docshell implementation in Mozilla Firefox before 29.0, Firefox ESR 24.x before 24.5, Thunderbird before 24.5, and SeaMonkey before 2.26 allows remote attackers to trigger the loading of a URL with a spoofed baseURI property, and conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks, via a crafted web site that performs history navigation.

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in Mozilla Firefox before 26.0 and SeaMonkey before 2.23 makes it easier for remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML by leveraging a Same Origin Policy violation triggered by lack of a charset parameter in a Content-Type HTTP header.
Mozilla Firefox before 21.0, Firefox ESR 17.x before 17.0.6, Thunderbird before 17.0.6, and Thunderbird ESR 17.x before 17.0.6 do not properly initialize data structures for the nsDOMSVGZoomEvent::mPreviousScale and nsDOMSVGZoomEvent::mNewScale functions, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information from process memory via a crafted web site.
A flaw in certain programs that handle UDP traffic was discovered and assigned the name CVE-1999-0103 (that CVE specifically mentions echo and chargen as vulnerable). In 2002, a Nessus plugin was included [1] that reference this CVE name, but was for the kpasswd service. Until recently, this issue had not been reported upstream. This issue has since been reported upstream [2] and is now fixed [3].
If a malicious remote user were to spoof their IP address to that of another server running kadmind with the password change port (kpasswd, port 464), or to the target server's IP address itself), kpasswd will pass UDP packets to the spoofed address and reply each time. This can be used to consume bandwidth and CPU on the affected servers running kadmind.
This should be fixed in the for krb5-1.11.3 release.

A flaw in how TLS/DTLS, when CBC-mode encryption is used, communicates was reported. This vulnerability can allow for a Man-in-the-Middle attacker to recover plaintext from a TLS/DTLS connection, when CBC-mode encryption is used.
This flaw is in the TLS specification, and not a bug in a specific implementation (as such, it affects nearly all implementations). As such, it affects all TLS and DTLS implementations that are compliant with TLS 1.1 or 1.2, or with DTLS 1.0 or 1.2. It also applies to implementations of SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 that incorporate countermeasures to deal with previous padding oracle attacks. All TLS/DTLS ciphersuites that include CBC-mode encryption are potentially vulnerable.
To perform a successful attack, when TLS is used, a large number of TLS sessions are required (target plaintext must be sent repeatedly in the same position in the plaintext stream across the sessions). For DTLS, a successful attack can be carried out in a single session. The attacker must also be located close to the machine being attacked.

Mozilla Firefox before 16.0, Firefox ESR 10.x before 10.0.8, Thunderbird before 16.0, Thunderbird ESR 10.x before 10.0.8, and SeaMonkey before 2.13 do not properly restrict calls to DOMWindowUtils (aka nsDOMWindowUtils) methods, which allows remote attackers to bypass intended access restrictions via crafted JavaScript code.
An XML External Entities (XXE) attack was found in the way xmlparse routine, used for producing of xml data type value from character data, of PostgreSQL, an advanced Object-Relational database management system (DBMS), performed parsing of provided character data. An unprivileged database user could issue a specially-crafted SQL query to the PostgreSQL server that, when processed could lead to attacker's ability to read arbitrary system files, accessible with privileges of the user running the PostgreSQL server.

Redland Raptor (aka libraptor) before 2.0.7, as used by OpenOffice 3.3 and 3.4 Beta, LibreOffice before 3.4.6 and 3.5.x before 3.5.1, and other products, allows user-assisted remote attackers to read arbitrary files via a crafted XML external entity (XXE) declaration and reference in an RDF document.
Juliano Rizzo announced: [1] http://www.ekoparty.org/2011/juliano-rizzo.php
that at ekoparty Security Conference, from 2011-09-21 to 2011-09-23 they will present a new fast block-wise chosen-plaintext attack against SSL/TLS. One application of the attack should allow the adversary to efficiently decrypt and obtain authentication tokens and cookies from HTTPS requests.
The Red Hat Security Response Team is watching progress on this one and once further details are available, we will immediately react to ensure timely manner updates for affected packages.
In ibuverbspollcq() code there is a potential integer overflow if userspace passes in a large cmd.ne. The calls to kmalloc() would allocate smaller buffers than intended, leading to memory corruption. There iss also an information leak if resp wasn't all used. Unprivileged userspace may call this function, although only if an RDMA device that uses this function is present.
Fix this by copying CQ entries one at a time, which avoids the allocation entirely, and also by moving this copying into a function that makes sure to initialize all memory copied to userspace.

Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 and Fedora install the Bind /etc/rndc.key file with world-readable permissions, which allows local users to perform unauthorized named commands, such as causing a denial of service by stopping named.
Directory traversal vulnerability in the containsdotdot function in src/names.c in GNU tar allows user-assisted remote attackers to overwrite arbitrary files via certain //.. (slash slash dot dot) sequences in directory symlinks in a TAR archive.
Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in modstatus.c in the modstatus module in Apache HTTP Server (httpd), when ExtendedStatus is enabled and a public server-status page is used, allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via unspecified vectors involving charsets with browsers that perform "charset detection" when the content-type is not specified.
Apache httpd 1.3.37, 2.0.59, and 2.2.4 with the Prefork MPM module, allows local users to cause a denial of service by modifying the workerscore and processscore arrays to reference an arbitrary process ID, which is sent a SIGUSR1 signal from the master process, aka "SIGUSR1 killer."
PerlRun.pm in Apache modperl before 1.30, and RegistryCooker.pm in modperl 2.x, does not properly escape PATHINFO before use in a regular expression, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (resource consumption) via a crafted URI.
