It was discovered that the JPEG decoder in the AWT component of OpenJDK did not use correct buffer boundary in certain cases when decoding JPEG files. A specially crafted JPEG file could cause a Java application to corrupt its memory and possibly execute arbitrary code when opened. An untrusted Java application or applet could also use this flaw to bypass Java sandbox restrictions.
Integer signedness issues were discovered in IndicRearrangementProcessor and IndicRearrangementProcessor2 in the ICU Layout Engine. A specially crafted font file could cause an application using ICU to parse untrusted fonts to crash and, possibly, execute arbitrary code.
ICU code is embedded the 2D component in OpenJDK and used by FontManager. An untrusted Java application or applet could use this flaw to execute arbitrary code with Java Virtual Machine privileges and bypass Java sandbox restrictions.
A flaw was found in the CXGB3 kernel driver when the network was considered congested. The kernel would incorrectly misinterpret the congestion as an error condition and incorrectly free/clean up the skb. When the device would then send the skb's queued, these structures would be referenced and may panic the system or allow an attacker to escalate privileges in a use-after-free scenario.
From the patch:
----
The cxgb3send() functions return NETXMIT values, which are positive integers values. So don't treat positive return values as an error. ----

CVE assignment: http://seclists.org/oss-sec/2016/q1/311
Multiple unspecified vulnerabilities in Google Chrome before 50.0.2661.75 allow attackers to cause a denial of service or possibly have other impact via unknown vectors.
Last updated 24 July 2024
All existing releases of GraphicsMagick and ImageMagick support a file open syntax where if the first character of the file specification is a '|', then the remainder of the filename is passed to the shell for execution using the POSIX popen(3C) function. File opening is handled by an OpenBlob() function in the source file blob.c. Unlike the vulnerability described by CVE-2016-3714, this functionality is supported by the core file opening function rather than a delegates subsystem usually used to execute external programs.

IDE Xcode Server. Multiple issues were addressed by updating nginx to version 1.21.0.
As per Upstream advisory:
A double free bug was discovered when OpenSSL parses malformed DSA private keys and could lead to a DoS attack or memory corruption for applications that receive DSA private keys from untrusted sources. This scenario is considered rare.
This issue affects OpenSSL versions 1.0.2 and 1.0.1.
OpenSSL 1.0.2 users should upgrade to 1.0.2g OpenSSL 1.0.1 users should upgrade to 1.0.1s
This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 7th February 2016 by Adam Langley (Google/BoringSSL) using libFuzzer. The fix was developed by Dr Stephen Henson of OpenSSL.
Integer signedness error in GD Graphics Library 2.1.1 (aka libgd or libgd2) allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) or potentially execute arbitrary code via crafted compressed gd2 data, which triggers a heap-based buffer overflow.
The (1) git-remote-ext and (2) unspecified other remote helper programs in Git before 2.3.10, 2.4.x before 2.4.10, 2.5.x before 2.5.4, and 2.6.x before 2.6.1 do not properly restrict the allowed protocols, which might allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a URL in a (a) .gitmodules file or (b) unknown other sources in a submodule.
x8664/ecc-384-modp.asm in Nettle before 3.2 does not properly handle carry propagation and produces incorrect output in its implementation of the P-384 NIST elliptic curve, which allows attackers to have unspecified impact via unknown vectors.
The ecc256modq function in ecc-256.c in Nettle before 3.2 does not properly handle carry propagation and produces incorrect output in its implementation of the P-256 NIST elliptic curve, which allows attackers to have unspecified impact via unknown vectors, a different vulnerability than CVE-2015-8803.
The ecc256modp function in ecc-256.c in Nettle before 3.2 does not properly handle carry propagation and produces incorrect output in its implementation of the P-256 NIST elliptic curve, which allows attackers to have unspecified impact via unknown vectors, a different vulnerability than CVE-2015-8805.
Buffer overflow in the mipsnetreceive function in hw/net/mipsnet.c in QEMU, when the guest NIC is configured to accept large packets, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and QEMU crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a packet larger than 1514 bytes.
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.

ext/libxml/libxml.c in PHP before 5.5.22 and 5.6.x before 5.6.6, when PHP-FPM is used, does not isolate each thread from libxmldisableentityloader changes in other threads, which allows remote attackers to conduct XML External Entity (XXE) and XML Entity Expansion (XEE) attacks via a crafted XML document, a related issue to CVE-2015-5161.
