As per the upstream advisory:
By sending an invalid DTLS handshake to an OpenSSL DTLS client, the code can be made to recurse, eventually crashing in a DoS attack.
Only applications using OpenSSL as a DTLS client are affected.
OpenSSL 0.9.8 DTLS users should upgrade to 0.9.8za OpenSSL 1.0.0 DTLS users should upgrade to 1.0.0m. OpenSSL 1.0.1 DTLS users should upgrade to 1.0.1h. .

The dossl3write function in s3pkt.c in OpenSSL 1.x through 1.0.1g, when SSLMODERELEASEBUFFERS is enabled, does not properly manage a buffer pointer during certain recursive calls, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and application crash) via vectors that trigger an alert condition.
As per the upstream advisory:
OpenSSL TLS clients enabling anonymous ECDH ciphersuites are subject to a denial of service attack.
OpenSSL 1.0.0 users should upgrade to 1.0.0m. OpenSSL 1.0.1 users should upgrade to 1.0.1h.

Race condition in the ssl3readbytes function in s3pkt.c in OpenSSL through 1.0.1g, when SSLMODERELEASEBUFFERS is enabled, allows remote attackers to inject data across sessions or cause a denial of service (use-after-free and parsing error) via an SSL connection in a multithreaded environment.

It was reported [1] that iptables can allow protocols that do not have a protocol handler kernel module loaded.
Given following iptables ruleset: -P FORWARD DROP -A FORWARD -m sctp --dport 9 -j ACCEPT -A FORWARD -p tcp --dport 80 -j ACCEPT -A FORWARD -p tcp -m conntrack -m state ESTABLISHED,RELATED -j ACCEPT
One would assume that this allows SCTP on port 9 and TCP on port 80. Unfortunately, if the SCTP conntrack module is not loaded, this allows all SCTP communication to pass through, i.e. -p sctp -j ACCEPT

A local kernel crash on invalid USB device requiring the visor driver was reported. The treoattach() function of the [visor] driver, which is called during the driver initialization process, was dereferencing the bulk-in and interrupt-in urbs without first making sure they had been allocated by core. Due to an incomplete sanity check, the visor driver tries to dereference null-pointers, which results in crash.

A new exploitation technique called key reinstallation attacks used to break Wi-Fi handshakes that negotiate session keys was discovered. These attacks target the Wi-Fi/WPA2 standard. An adversary can trick a client or Access Point (AP) into reinstalling an already-in use group key in 4-way handshake. While reinstalling the already in-use key, the associated packet number (sometimes also called nonce) and receive replay counter is reset. This causes nonce reuse, voiding any security the underlying encryption protocol is supposed to provide. For example, it allows decryption or injection of frames, and enables an attacker to replay frames.

In testing on Fedora, "set weed=no" had to be set in the user's .muttrc before the issue presented.
bitsperpixel that are less than 8 could result in accessing non-initialized buffers later in the code due to the expectation that bytesperpixel value that is used to initialize these buffers is never zero.
An attacker having access to the guest's VNC console could use this flaw to crash the guest.
