A vulnerability was found in the way RemoteMessageChannel, introduced in jboss-remoting versions 3.3.10, reads from an empty buffer. An attacker could use this flaw to cause denial of service via high CPU caused by an infinite loop.
Withdrawn Advisory This advisory has been withdrawn because the vulnerability only affects the Qpid Proton C library and not org.apache.qpid:proton-j. This link has been maintained to preserve external references.
Original Description
While investigating bug PROTON-2014, we discovered that under some circumstances Apache Qpid Proton versions 0.9 to 0.27.0 (C library and its language bindings) can connect to a peer anonymously using TLS even when configured to verify the peer certificate while used with OpenSSL versions before 1.1.0. This means that an undetected man in the middle attack could be constructed if an attacker can arrange to intercept TLS traffic.
Buffer overflow in ncurses library allows local users to execute arbitrary commands via long environmental information such as TERM or TERMINFODIRS.
Buffer overflow in ncurses 5.0, and the ncurses4 compatibility package as used in Red Hat Linux, allows local users to gain privileges, related to "routines for moving the physical cursor and scrolling."
rsync, when running in daemon mode, does not properly call setgroups before dropping privileges, which could provide supplemental group privileges to local users, who could then read certain files that would otherwise be disallowed.
Buffer overflow in CMAN - The Cluster Manager before 2.03.09-1 on Fedora 9 and Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 5 allows attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption and memory corruption) via a cluster.conf file with many lines. NOTE: it is not clear whether this issue crosses privilege boundaries in realistic uses of the product.
BEA WebLogic Express and WebLogic Server 7.0 and 7.0.0.1, stores passwords in plaintext when a keystore is used to store a private key or trust certificate authorities, which allows local users to gain access.
The STP protocol, as enabled in Linux 2.4.x, does not provide sufficient security by design, which allows attackers to modify the bridge topology.
Linux 2.4.x allows remote attackers to spoof the bridge Forwarding table via forged packets whose source addresses are the same as the target.
The STP protocol implementation in Linux 2.4.x does not properly verify certain lengths, which could allow attackers to cause a denial of service.
The RPC code in Linux kernel 2.4 sets the reuse flag when sockets are created, which could allow local users to bind to UDP ports that are used by privileged services such as nfsd.
/proc/tty/driver/serial in Linux 2.4.x reveals the exact number of characters used in serial links, which could allow local users to obtain potentially sensitive information such as the length of passwords.
Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the transparent SID support capability for PHP before 4.3.2 (session.usetranssid) allows remote attackers to insert arbitrary script via the PHPSESSID parameter.
Various PDF viewers including (1) Adobe Acrobat 5.06 and (2) Xpdf 1.01 allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via shell metacharacters in an embedded hyperlink.
Konqueror Embedded and KDE 2.2.2 and earlier does not validate the Common Name (CN) field for X.509 Certificates, which could allow remote attackers to spoof certificates via a man-in-the-middle attack.
The TCP/IP fragment reassembly handling in the Linux kernel 2.4 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) via certain packets that cause a large number of hash table collisions.
Unknown vulnerability in GNU Ghostscript before 7.07 allows attackers to execute arbitrary commands, even when -dSAFER is enabled, via a PostScript file that causes the commands to be executed from a malicious print job.
Unknown vulnerability in the TTY layer of the Linux kernel 2.4 allows attackers to cause a denial of service ("kernel oops").
The mxcsr code in Linux kernel 2.4 allows attackers to modify CPU state registers via a malformed address.
lv reads a .lv file from the current working directory, which allows local users to execute arbitrary commands as other lv users by placing malicious .lv files into other directories.
tcpdump does not properly drop privileges to the pcap user when starting up.
vsftpd FTP daemon in Red Hat Linux 9 is not compiled against TCP wrappers (tcpwrappers) but is installed as a standalone service, which inadvertently prevents vsftpd from restricting access as intended.
Kerberos FTP client allows remote FTP sites to execute arbitrary code via a pipe (|) character in a filename that is retrieved by the client.
umlnet in the kernel-utils package for Red Hat Linux 8.0 has incorrect setuid root privileges, which allows local users to modify network interfaces, e.g. by modifying ARP entries or placing interfaces into promiscuous mode.
The Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) allows local users to cause a denial of service via an IGMP membership report to a target's Ethernet address instead of the Multicast group address, which causes the target to stop sending reports to the router and effectively disconnect the group from the network.
Buffer overflow in efstools in Bonobo, when installed setuid, allows local users to execute arbitrary code via long command line arguments.
The line printer daemon (lpd) in the lpr package in multiple Linux operating systems authenticates by comparing the reverse-resolved hostname of the local machine to the hostname of the print server as returned by gethostname, which allows remote attackers to bypass intended access controls by modifying the DNS for the attacking IP.
The line printer daemon (lpd) in the lpr package in multiple Linux operating systems allows local users to gain root privileges by causing sendmail to execute with arbitrary command line arguments, as demonstrated using the -C option to specify a configuration file.
Linux gpm program allows local users to cause a denial of service by flooding the /dev/gpmctl device with STREAM sockets.
rpc.lockd in Red Hat Linux 6.1 and 6.2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via a malformed request.
