Debian : Security Vulnerabilities, CVEs, (Gain Privilege)

The DBLink module in PostgreSQL 8.2 before 8.2.6, 8.1 before 8.1.11, 8.0 before 8.0.15, 7.4 before 7.4.19, and 7.3 before 7.3.21, when local trust or ident authentication is used, allows remote attackers to gain privileges via unspecified vectors. NOTE: this issue exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2007-3278.

The nsXMLHttpRequest::NotifyEventListeners method in Firefox 3.x before 3.0.4, Firefox 2.x before 2.0.0.18, Thunderbird 2.x before 2.0.0.18, and SeaMonkey 1.x before 1.1.13 allows remote attackers to bypass the same-origin policy and execute arbitrary script via multiple listeners, which bypass the inner window check.

The FCGI (aka Fast CGI) module 0.70 through 0.73 for Perl, as used by CGI::Fast, uses environment variable values from one request during processing of a later request, which allows remote attackers to bypass authentication via crafted HTTP headers.

The AX.25 daemon (ax25d) in ax25-tools before 0.0.8-13 does not check the return value of a setuid call. The setuid call is responsible for dropping privileges but if the call fails the daemon would continue to run with root privileges which can allow possible privilege escalation.

The init script in the Debian x11-common package before 1:7.6+12 is vulnerable to a symlink attack that can lead to a privilege escalation during package installation.

The default configuration of the auth/saml plugin in Mahara before 1.4.2 sets the "Match username attribute to Remote username" option to false, which allows remote SAML IdP servers to spoof users of other SAML IdP servers by using the same internal username.

chan_iax2.c in the IAX2 channel driver in Certified Asterisk 1.8.11-cert before 1.8.11-cert2 and Asterisk Open Source 1.8.x before 1.8.12.1 and 10.x before 10.4.1, when a certain mohinterpret setting is enabled, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (daemon crash) by placing a call on hold.

ecryptfs-utils: suid helper does not restrict mounting filesystems with nosuid,nodev which creates a possible privilege escalation

HAProxy 1.4 before 1.4.24 and 1.5 before 1.5-dev19, when configured to use hdr_ip or other "hdr_*" functions with a negative occurrence count, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (negative array index usage and crash) via an HTTP header with a certain number of values, related to the MAX_HDR_HISTORY variable.

The mirroring support (-M, --use-mirrors) in Python Pip before 1.5 uses insecure DNS querying and authenticity checks which allows attackers to perform man-in-the-middle attacks.

The OneClickSigninBubbleView::WindowClosing function in browser/ui/views/sync/one_click_signin_bubble_view.cc in Google Chrome before 32.0.1700.76 on Windows and before 32.0.1700.77 on Mac OS X and Linux allows attackers to trigger a sync with an arbitrary Google account by leveraging improper handling of the closing of an untrusted signin confirm dialog.

denyhosts 2.6 uses an incorrect regular expression when analyzing authentication logs, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (incorrect block of IP addresses) via crafted login names.

The default configuration in cURL and libcurl 7.10.6 before 7.36.0 re-uses (1) SCP, (2) SFTP, (3) POP3, (4) POP3S, (5) IMAP, (6) IMAPS, (7) SMTP, (8) SMTPS, (9) LDAP, and (10) LDAPS connections, which might allow context-dependent attackers to connect as other users via a request, a similar issue to CVE-2014-0015.

The Expression Language (EL) implementation in Apache Tomcat 6.x before 6.0.44, 7.x before 7.0.58, and 8.x before 8.0.16 does not properly consider the possibility of an accessible interface implemented by an inaccessible class, which allows attackers to bypass a SecurityManager protection mechanism via a web application that leverages use of incorrect privileges during EL evaluation.

python-requests-Kerberos through 0.5 does not handle mutual authentication

Insecure use of temporary files in xbindkeys-config 0.1.3-2 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code.

The dpkg-source command in Debian dpkg before 1.16.16 and 1.17.x before 1.17.25 allows remote attackers to bypass signature verification via a crafted Debian source control file (.dsc).

core/html/parser/HTMLConstructionSite.cpp in the DOM implementation in Blink, as used in Google Chrome before 43.0.2357.65, allows remote attackers to bypass the Same Origin Policy via crafted JavaScript code that appends a child to a SCRIPT element, related to the insert and executeReparentTask functions.

unattended-upgrades before 0.86.1 does not properly authenticate packages when the (1) force-confold or (2) force-confnew dpkg options are enabled in the DPkg::Options::* apt configuration, which allows remote man-in-the-middle attackers to upload and execute arbitrary packages via unspecified vectors.

389 Directory Server before 1.3.3.10 allows attackers to bypass intended access restrictions and modify directory entries via a crafted ldapmodrdn call.

The rsaauth extension in TYPO3 4.3.0 through 4.3.14, 4.4.0 through 4.4.15, 4.5.0 through 4.5.39, and 4.6.0 through 4.6.18, when configured for the frontend, allows remote attackers to bypass authentication via a password that is casted to an empty value.

Drupal 6.x before 6.35 and 7.x before 7.35 allows remote authenticated users to reset the password of other accounts by leveraging an account with the same password hash as another account and a crafted password reset URL.

cURL and libcurl 7.10.6 through 7.41.0 do not properly re-use authenticated Negotiate connections, which allows remote attackers to connect as other users via a request.

WordPress before 4.2.3 does not properly verify the edit_posts capability, which allows remote authenticated users to bypass intended access restrictions and create drafts by leveraging the Subscriber role, as demonstrated by a post-quickdraft-save action to wp-admin/post.php.

The SMB1 implementation in smbd in Samba 3.x and 4.x before 4.1.23, 4.2.x before 4.2.9, 4.3.x before 4.3.6, and 4.4.x before 4.4.0rc4 allows remote authenticated users to modify arbitrary ACLs by using a UNIX SMB1 call to create a symlink, and then using a non-UNIX SMB1 call to write to the ACL content.
