A stack-based buffer overflow was found in libresolv when invoked from nssdns, allowing specially crafted DNS responses to seize control of EIP in the DNS client.

The buffer overflow occurs in the functions senddg (send datagram) and sendvc (send TCP) for the NSS module libnssdns.so.2 when calling getaddrinfo with AFUNSPEC family, or in some cases AFINET6 family. The use of AFUNSPEC (or AFINET6 in some cases) triggers the low-level resolver code to send out two parallel queries for A and AAAA. A mismanagement of the buffers used for those queries could result in the response of a query writing beyond the alloca allocated buffer created by resnquery.

Oracle Java SE 6u95, 7u79 and 8u45 fixes an unspecified vulnerability in the Deployment component (CVE-2015-0458). Upstream has CVSSv2 scored this issue as: 7.6/AV:N/AC:H/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C

A flaw was found in the way the ntp-keygen utility generated MD5 symmetric keys on big-endian systems. This could possibly allow an attacker to guess generated MD5 keys that could then be used to spoof an NTP client or server.

If the lowest byte of the temp variable is outside of the printable characters range (between 0x20 and 0x7f), the ntp-keygen utility enters an infinite loop. However, if the temp variable is within the aforementioned range, the generated MD5 key will consist of 20 identical characters, meaning only 93 possible keys can be generated.
