The bufferslowrealign function in HAProxy 1.5.x before 1.5.14 and 1.6-dev does not properly realign a buffer that is used for pending outgoing data, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information (uninitialized memory contents of previous requests) via a crafted request.
A NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in libtasn1's asn1readvaluetype() / asn1readvalue() function. If an application called the function with a NULL value for an ivalue argument to determine the amount of memory needed to store data to be read from the ASN.1 input, libtasn1 could incorrectly attempt to dereference the NULL pointer, causing an application using the library to crash.
The libtasn1 library is used by the GnuTLS library to parse X.509 certificates. The gnutls packages in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 and earlier use bundled libtasn1, packages in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 and later depend on the library provided by a separate libtasn1 package.

Multiple buffer boundary check issues were discovered in libtasn1 library, causing it to read beyond the boundary of an allocated buffer. An untrusted ASN.1 input could cause an application using the library to crash.

Multiple directory traversal vulnerabilities in (1) modevhost and (2) modsimplevhost in lighttpd before 1.4.35 allow remote attackers to read arbitrary files via a .. (dot dot) in the host name, related to requestcheckhostname.

Description of problem: It requires debugfs to be mounted on a local system
$ mount | grep debugfs none on /sys/kernel/debug type debugfs (rw) none on /var/lib/ureadahead/debugfs type debugfs (rw,relatime)
Tested with Ubuntu Maverick 10.04.1 with kernel 2.6.32-24-generic-pae. It's probably not exploitable in any meaningful way, although it produces page fault in kernel mode, and makes subsequent processes opening /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/setftracefilter (or setftracenotrace) unkillable, so it's a little bit of a DoS (or at least, annoyance).
Found via one of Tavis Ormandy's tools, I just quickly analyzed it and provided a testcase.
