Withdrawn Advisory This advisory has been withdrawn because the vulnerability only affects the Qpid Proton C library and not org.apache.qpid:proton-j. This link has been maintained to preserve external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.

An integer overflow issue was found in the AMD PC-Net II NIC emulation in QEMU. It could occur while receiving packets, if the size value was greater than INTMAX. Such overflow would lead to stack buffer overflow issue. A user inside guest could use this flaw to crash the QEMU process resulting in DoS.
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.
Format string vulnerability in Mutt before 1.2.5 allows a remote malicious IMAP server to execute arbitrary commands.
Buffer overflow in ultimatesource function of man 1.5 and earlier allows local users to gain privileges.
Buffer overflow in pamlocaluser PAM module in Red Hat Linux 7.x and 6.x allows attackers to gain privileges.
Multiple shell programs on various Unix systems, including (1) tcsh, (2) csh, (3) sh, and (4) bash, follow symlinks when processing << redirects (aka here-documents or in-here documents), which allows local users to overwrite files of other users via a symlink attack.
mopd (Maintenance Operations Protocol loader daemon) does not properly cleanse user-injected format strings, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands.
Buffer overflow in mopd (Maintenance Operations Protocol loader daemon) allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via a long file name.
makewhatis in Linux man package allows local users to overwrite files via a symlink attack.
The pamconsole PAM module in Linux systems performs a chown on various devices upon a user login, but an open file descriptor for those devices can be maintained after the user logs out, which allows that user to sniff activity on these devices when subsequent users log in.
gpm-root in the gpm package does not properly drop privileges, which allows local users to gain privileges by starting a utility from gpm-root.
Buffer overflow in the dump utility in the Linux ext2fs backup package allows local users to gain privileges via a long command line argument.
Buffer overflow in mhshow in the Linux nmh package allows remote attackers to execute commands via malformed MIME headers in an email message.
Buffer overflow in the man program in Linux allows local users to gain privileges via the MANPAGER environmental variable.
Red Hat 6.0 allows local users to gain root access by booting single user and hitting ^C at the password prompt.
Linux xmonisdn package allows local users to gain root privileges by modifying the IFS or PATH environmental variables.
Red Hat userhelper program in the usermode package allows local users to gain root access via PAM and a .. (dot dot) attack.
wu-ftp with FTP conversion enabled allows an attacker to execute commands via a malformed file name that is interpreted as an argument to the program that does the conversion, e.g. tar or uncompress.
Buffer overflow in INN inews program.
Buffer overflow in Vixie cron allows local users to gain root access via a long MAILTO environment variable in a crontab file.
Vixie Cron on Linux systems allows local users to set parameters of sendmail commands via the MAILTO environmental variable.
Buffer overflow in Vixie Cron on Red Hat systems via the MAILTO environmental variable.
pg and pb in SuSE pbpg 1.x package allows an attacker to read arbitrary files.
The Squid package in Red Hat Linux 5.2 and 6.0, and other distributions, installs cachemgr.cgi in a public web directory, which allows remote attackers to use it as an intermediary to connect to other systems.
Buffer overflows in Red Hat net-tools package.
The Red Hat Linux su program does not log failed password guesses if the su process is killed before it times out, which allows local attackers to conduct brute force password guessing.
A Unix account has a default, null, blank, or missing password.
Buffer overflow in xmcd 2.0p12 allows local users to gain access through an environmental variable.
