Integer overflow in the VNC display driver in QEMU before 2.1.0 allows attachers to cause a denial of service (process crash) via a CLIENTCUTTEXT message, which triggers an infinite loop.

IBM Java Security Components in IBM SDK, Java Technology Edition 8 before SR1 FP10, 7 R1 before SR3 FP10, 7 before SR9 FP10, 6 R1 before SR8 FP7, 6 before SR16 FP7, and 5.0 before SR16 FP13 stores plaintext information in memory dumps, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information by reading a file.

A stack overflow vulnerability in the catopen function was found, causing applications which pass long strings to the catopen function to crash or, potentially execute arbitrary code.

lib/gssapi/spnego/spnegomech.c in MIT Kerberos 5 (aka krb5) before 1.14 relies on an inappropriate context handle, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (incorrect pointer read and process crash) via a crafted SPNEGO packet that is mishandled during a gssinquirecontext call.

Unspecified vulnerability in Oracle MySQL Server 5.5.45 and earlier and 5.6.26 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to affect integrity via unknown vectors related to Server : Security : Privileges.

Oracle Java SE 6u105, 7u91 and 8u65 fixes an unspecified vulnerability in the Deployment component (CVE-2015-4902). Upstream has CVSSv2 scored this issue as: 5.0/AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:P/A:N

Moxilla Firefox allows remote attackers to bypass the Same Origin Policy to read arbitrary files or gain privileges.

Heap-based buffer overflow in the PCNET controller in QEMU allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by sending a packet with TXSTATUSSTARTPACKET set and then a crafted packet with TXSTATUSDEVICEOWNS set.

QEMU does not properly restrict write access to the PCI config space for certain PCI pass-through devices, which might allow local x86 HVM guests to gain privileges, cause a denial of service (host crash), obtain sensitive information, or possibly have other unspecified impact via unknown vectors.

GStreamer before 1.4.5, as used in Mozilla Firefox before 38.0, Firefox ESR 31.x before 31.7, and Thunderbird before 31.7 on Linux, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (buffer over-read and application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via crafted H.264 video data in an m4v file.

It was discovered that the Invariance Weakness of the RC4 stream cipher could be used to recover plaintext from a TLS connection, when RC4 encryption is used.

"The Invariance Weakness is an L-shape key pattern in RC4 keys, which once it exists in an RC4 key, preserves part of the state permutation intact throughout the initialization process. This intact part includes the least significant bits of the permutation, when processed by the PRGA algorithm, determines the least significant bits of the allegedly pseudo-random output stream along a long prefix of the stream."

This can lead to significant leakage of plaintext bytes from the ciphertext.

GNOME NetworkManager allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (IPv6 traffic disruption) via a crafted MTU value in an IPv6 Router Advertisement (RA) message, a different vulnerability than CVE-2015-8215.

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.

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.
