FSA748 - wireshark
Package:wireshark
Date:2011-12-23
Posted by:Miklos Vajna
Vulnerable version:1.6.2-1mores1
Unaffected version:1.6.3-1mores1
Bug tracker entry:https://bugs.frugalware.org/ticket/4633
CVEs:http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2011-4100 http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2011-4101 http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2011-4102
Description:Multiple vulnerabilities have been reported in Wireshark, which can be exploited by malicious people to cause a DoS (Denial of Service) and compromise a vulnerable system. 1) An error related to an uninitialised variable within the CSN.1 dissector can be exploited to cause a crash. 2) A NULL pointer dereference error within the Infiniband dissector can be exploited to cause a crash. 3) An error within the ERF file parser can be exploited to cause a heap-based buffer overflow.

FSA747 - drupal6-views
Package:drupal6-views
Date:2011-12-23
Posted by:Miklos Vajna

FSA745 - django
Package:django
Date:2011-09-17
Posted by:Miklos Vajna
Vulnerable version:1.3-2
Unaffected version:1.3.1-1mores1
Bug tracker entry:http://bugs.frugalware.org/task/4590
CVEs:No CVE, see https://www.djangoproject.com/weblog/2011/sep/09/security-releases-issued/
Description:Some vulnerabilities have been reported in Django, which can be exploited by malicious people to disclose certain system information, manipulate certain data, conduct cache poisoning attacks, and cause a DoS (Denial of Service). 1) An error within the handling of sessions within django.contrib.sessions when using the caching backend can be exploited to manipulate session information. Successful exploitation requires that the session key is known and the application allows attackers to store dictionary-like objects with a valid session key in the cache. 2) An error when verifying if URLs provided to the "URLField" field type correctly resolve can be exploited to exhaust all of the server's processes and memory by providing an URL to a malicious server. 3) An error within the handling of redirect responses when verifying URLs provided to the "URLField" field type can be exploited to e.g. determine the existence of local files on the server by returning a redirect response to a "file://" URL. 4) An error within the handling of the "X-Forwarded-Host" HTTP header when e.g. generating full URLs for redirect responses can be exploited to conduct cache poisoning attacks.
FSA744 - librsvg
Package:librsvg
Date:2011-09-13
Posted by:Miklos Vajna
Vulnerable version:2.34.0-1
Unaffected version:2.34.1-1mores1
Bug tracker entry:http://bugs.frugalware.org/task/4582
CVEs:http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2011-3146
Description:A vulnerability has been reported in librsvg, which can be exploited by malicious people to cause a DoS (Denial of Service) and potentially compromise an application using the library. The vulnerability is caused due to an error within the handling of node types, which can be exploited to dereference invalid memory via specially crafted SVG images.
FSA743 - mantis
Package:mantis
Date:2011-09-09
Posted by:Miklos Vajna
Vulnerable version:1.2.7-1mores1
Unaffected version:1.2.8-1mores1
Bug tracker entry:http://bugs.frugalware.org/task/4586
CVEs:No CVE, see https://www.htbridge.ch/advisory/multiple_vulnerabilities_in_mantisbt.html
Description:Some vulnerabilities have been reported in MantisBT, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site scripting attacks and disclose potentially sensitive information and by malicious users to compromise a vulnerable system. 1) Certain input passed via the URL is not properly sanitised before being returned to the user. This can be exploited to execute arbitrary HTML and script code in a user's browser session in context of an affected site. 2) Input passed to the "action" parameter in bug_actiongroup_ext_page.php and bug_actiongroup_page.php is not properly verified before being used to include files. This can be exploited to include arbitrary files from local resources via directory traversal attacks and URL-encoded NULL bytes. Note: In combination with MantisBT's file upload functionality, this can be exploited to execute arbitrary PHP code. 3) Input passed to the "os", "os_build", and "platform" parameters in bug_report_page.php and bug_update_advanced_page.php is not properly sanitised before being returned to the user. This can be exploited to execute arbitrary HTML and script code in a users browser session in context of an affected site.
FSA742 - apache
Package:apache
Date:2011-09-07
Posted by:Miklos Vajna
Vulnerable version:2.2.19-2mores1

CVEs:http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2011-3192
Description:Kingcope has discovered a vulnerability in Apache HTTP Server, which can be exploited by malicious people to cause a DoS (Denial of Service). The vulnerability is caused due to an error within the ByteRange filter when processing requests containing a large amount of ranges, which can be exploited to exhaust memory via specially crafted HTTP requests sent to the server.
FSA741 - foomatic-filters
Package:foomatic-filters
Date:2011-09-03
Posted by:Miklos Vajna
Vulnerable version:4.0.1-5
Unaffected version:4.0.1-6mores1
Bug tracker entry:http://bugs.frugalware.org/task/4556
CVEs:http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2011-2924
Description:It was found that foomatic-rip filter used insecurely created temporary file for storage of PostScript data by rendering the data, intended to be sent to the PostScript filter, when the debug mode was enabled. A local attacker could use this flaw to conduct symlink attacks (overwrite arbitrary file accessible with the privileges of the user running the foomatic-rip universal print filter).

CVEs:http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2011-3181
Description:Some vulnerabilities have been reported in phpMyAdmin, which can be exploited by malicious users to conduct script insertion attacks. Certain input passed to table, column, and index names is not properly sanitised before being used in the Tracking feature. This can be exploited to insert arbitrary HTML and script code, which will be executed in a user's browser session in context of an affected site when the malicious data is being viewed.

Description:1) A vulnerability has been reported in Kerberos, which can be exploited by malicious people to cause a DoS (Denial of Service). The vulnerability is caused due to an assertion error within the "spnego_gss_accept_sec_context()" function in src/lib/gssapi/spnego/spnego_mech.c when receiving an invalid packet, which can be exploited to e.g. crash an application using the library by sending a specially crafted packet. 2) Joel Johnson has reported a vulnerability in Kerberos, which can be exploited by malicious users to potentially compromise a vulnerable system. The vulnerability is caused due to an error in KDC within the "process_tgs_req()" function in kdc/do_tgs_req.c when validating or renewing tickets and can be exploited to trigger a double-free condition. Successful exploitation may allow execution of arbitrary code. 3) A vulnerability has been reported in Kerberos, which can be exploited by malicious users to cause a DoS (Denial of Service). The vulnerability is caused due to a NULL pointer dereference error when processing certain Kerberos AP-REQ authenticators, which can be exploited to cause a crash in e.g. kadmind or other applications linked against the GSS-API library by sending an AP-REQ authenticator with a missing checksum field.
