The Web workers implementation in Mozilla Firefox before 27.0 and SeaMonkey before 2.24 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via vectors involving termination of a worker process that has performed a cross-thread object-passing operation in conjunction with use of asm.js.
Buffer overflow in libtelnet/encrypt.c in telnetd in FreeBSD 7.3 through 9.0, MIT Kerberos Version 5 Applications (aka krb5-appl) 1.0.2 and earlier, Heimdal 1.5.1 and earlier, GNU inetutils, and possibly other products allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long encryption key, as exploited in the wild in December 2011.
Fixed bug GHSA-3qgc-jrrr-25jv (Bypass of CVE-2012-1823, Argument Injection in PHP-CGI). (CVE-2024-4577)
It was discovered that the 2D component did not properly verify certain image channels. An untrusted Java application or applet could possibly use this flaw to bypass Java sandbox restrictions.
Unspecified vulnerability in the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) component in Oracle Java SE 7 Update 2 and earlier, 6 Update 30 and earlier, and 5.0 Update 33 and earlier allows remote attackers to affect confidentiality, integrity, and availability via unknown vectors related to Concurrency. NOTE: the previous information was obtained from the February 2012 Oracle CPU. Oracle has not commented on claims from a downstream vendor and third party researchers that this issue occurs because the AtomicReferenceArray class implementation does not ensure that the array is of the Object[] type, which allows attackers to cause a denial of service (JVM crash) or bypass Java sandbox restrictions. NOTE: this issue was originally mapped to CVE-2011-3571, but that identifier was already assigned to a different issue.
A stack overflow vulnerability was found in nan functions that could cause applications which process long strings with the nan function to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code.

http://seclists.org/oss-sec/2016/q1/153
A flaw was found in the bash functionality that evaluates specially formatted environment variables passed to it from another environment. An attacker could use this feature to override or bypass restrictions to the environment to execute shell commands before restrictions have been applied. Certain services and applications allow remote unauthenticated attackers to provide environment variables, allowing them to exploit this issue.

Red Hat would like to thank Stephane Chazelas for reporting this issue.
GNU Bash through 4.3 bash43-025 processes trailing strings after certain malformed function definitions in the values of environment variables, which allows remote attackers to write to files or possibly have unknown other impact via a crafted environment, as demonstrated by vectors involving the ForceCommand feature in OpenSSH sshd, the modcgi and modcgid modules in the Apache HTTP Server, scripts executed by unspecified DHCP clients, and other situations in which setting the environment occurs across a privilege boundary from Bash execution. NOTE: this vulnerability exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2014-6271.

Mozilla Firefox before 22.0, Firefox ESR 17.x before 17.0.7, Thunderbird before 17.0.7, and Thunderbird ESR 17.x before 17.0.7 do not properly handle onreadystatechange events in conjunction with page reloading, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted web site that triggers an attempt to execute data at an unmapped memory location.
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.
A flaw was found in the way pi to pi futex requeueing was handled.
A local unprivileged user can use this flaw to increase their privileges on the system.
An exploit was posted to full-disclosure labelled "Apache Killer". This script creates a number of threads that use multiple Range headers to exhaust memory on the Apache server.

Mozilla Firefox before 17.0, Thunderbird before 17.0, and SeaMonkey before 2.14 allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (application crash) via vectors involving the setting of Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) properties in conjunction with SVG text.
The Content Security Policy (CSP) implementation in Mozilla Firefox before 27.0 and SeaMonkey before 2.24 operates on XSLT stylesheets according to style-src directives instead of script-src directives, which might allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary XSLT code by leveraging insufficient style-src restrictions.
It was discovered that libtasn1 library function asn1getbitder() could incorrectly report negative bit length of the value read from ASN.1 input. This could possibly lead to an out of bounds access in an application using libtasn1, for example in case if application tried to terminate read value with NUL byte.
The following upstream commit corrects the issue and causes the function to report error rather than return negative length value: http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/libtasn1.git/commit/?id=1c3ccb3e040bf13e342ee60bc23b21b97b11923f
ISC BIND contains a data processing errors vulnerability that could allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service via TKEY queries.
