Security Vulnerabilities, CVEs, Published In December 2019

An issue was discovered in ezXML 0.8.3 through 0.8.6. The function ezxml_char_content() tries to use realloc on a block that was not allocated, leading to an invalid free and segmentation fault.

An issue was discovered in ezXML 0.8.3 through 0.8.6. The ezxml_parse_* functions mishandle XML entities, leading to an infinite loop in which memory allocations occur.

An issue was discovered in ezXML 0.8.3 through 0.8.6. The function ezxml_decode, while parsing crafted a XML file, performs incorrect memory handling, leading to a heap-based buffer over-read in the "normalize line endings" feature.

An issue was discovered in ezXML 0.8.3 through 0.8.6. The function ezxml_decode, while parsing a crafted XML file, performs incorrect memory handling, leading to NULL pointer dereference while running strlen() on a NULL pointer.

An issue was discovered in ezXML 0.8.3 through 0.8.6. The function ezxml_ent_ok() mishandles recursion, leading to stack consumption for a crafted XML file.

In Nagios XI 5.6.9, an authenticated user is able to execute arbitrary OS commands via shell metacharacters in the id parameter to schedulereport.php, in the context of the web-server user account.

In Pure-FTPd 1.0.49, a stack exhaustion issue was discovered in the listdir function in ls.c.

An issue was discovered in ide_dma_cb() in hw/ide/core.c in QEMU 2.4.0 through 4.2.0. The guest system can crash the QEMU process in the host system via a special SCSI_IOCTL_SEND_COMMAND. It hits an assertion that implies that the size of successful DMA transfers there must be a multiple of 512 (the size of a sector). NOTE: a member of the QEMU security team disputes the significance of this issue because a "privileged guest user has many ways to cause similar DoS effect, without triggering this assert.

Kernel/VM/MemoryManager.cpp in SerenityOS before 2019-12-30 does not reject syscalls with pointers into the kernel-only virtual address space, which allows local users to gain privileges by overwriting a return address that was found on the kernel stack.

An issue was discovered in GPAC version 0.8.0 and 0.9.0-development-20191109. There is a NULL pointer dereference in the function ilst_item_Read() in isomedia/box_code_apple.c.

An issue was discovered in GPAC version 0.8.0 and 0.9.0-development-20191109. There is a NULL pointer dereference in the function gf_isom_box_del() in isomedia/box_funcs.c.

An issue was discovered in GPAC version 0.8.0 and 0.9.0-development-20191109. There is a NULL pointer dereference in the function gf_odf_avc_cfg_write_bs() in odf/descriptors.c.

An issue was discovered in GPAC version 0.8.0 and 0.9.0-development-20191109. There is heap-based buffer overflow in the function gf_isom_box_parse_ex() in isomedia/box_funcs.c.

An issue was discovered in GPAC version 0.8.0 and 0.9.0-development-20191109. There is a stack-based buffer overflow in the function av1_parse_tile_group() in media_tools/av_parsers.c.

An issue was discovered in GPAC version 0.8.0 and 0.9.0-development-20191109. There is a memory leak in dinf_New() in isomedia/box_code_base.c.

ctorName in index.js in kind-of v6.0.2 allows external user input to overwrite certain internal attributes via a conflicting name, as demonstrated by 'constructor': {'name':'Symbol'}. Hence, a crafted payload can overwrite this builtin attribute to manipulate the type detection result.

An XSS issue was discovered in the Laborator Neon theme 2.0 for WordPress via the data/autosuggest-remote.php q parameter.
