libarchive version commit 416694915449219d505531b1096384f3237dd6cc onwards (release v3.1.0 onwards) contains a CWE-416: Use After Free vulnerability in RAR decoder - libarchive/archive_read_support_format_rar.c that can result in Crash/DoS - it is unknown if RCE is possible. This attack appear to be exploitable via the victim must open a specially crafted RAR archive.

libarchive version commit 416694915449219d505531b1096384f3237dd6cc onwards (release v3.1.0 onwards) contains a CWE-415: Double Free vulnerability in RAR decoder - libarchive/archive_read_support_format_rar.c, parse_codes(), realloc(rar->lzss.window, new_size) with new_size = 0 that can result in Crash/DoS. This attack appear to be exploitable via the victim must open a specially crafted RAR archive.

binutils version 2.32 and earlier contains a Integer Overflow vulnerability in objdump, bfd_get_dynamic_reloc_upper_bound,bfd_canonicalize_dynamic_reloc that can result in Integer overflow trigger heap overflow. Successful exploitation allows execution of arbitrary code.. This attack appear to be exploitable via Local. This vulnerability appears to have been fixed in after commit 3a551c7a1b80fca579461774860574eabfd7f18f.

There is a SEGV in Exiv2::Internal::TiffParserWorker::findPrimaryGroups of tiffimage_int.cpp in Exiv2 0.27-RC3. A crafted input will lead to a remote denial of service attack.

In Artifex Ghostscript through 9.25, the setpattern operator did not properly validate certain types. A specially crafted PostScript document could exploit this to crash Ghostscript or, possibly, execute arbitrary code in the context of the Ghostscript process. This is a type confusion issue because of failure to check whether the Implementation of a pattern dictionary was a structure type.

Grafana before 4.6.5 and 5.x before 5.3.3 allows remote authenticated users to read arbitrary files by leveraging Editor or Admin permissions.

The userfaultfd implementation in the Linux kernel before 4.19.7 mishandles access control for certain UFFDIO_ ioctl calls, as demonstrated by allowing local users to write data into holes in a tmpfs file (if the user has read-only access to that file, and that file contains holes), related to fs/userfaultfd.c and mm/userfaultfd.c.

Lack of special casing of localhost in WPAD files in Google Chrome prior to 71.0.3578.80 allowed an attacker on the local network segment to proxy resources on localhost via a crafted WPAD file.

Incorrect handling of confusable characters in URL Formatter in Google Chrome prior to 71.0.3578.80 allowed a remote attacker to spoof the contents of the Omnibox (URL bar) via a crafted domain name.

An integer overflow in path handling lead to a use after free in Skia in Google Chrome prior to 71.0.3578.80 allowed a remote attacker to potentially exploit heap corruption via a crafted HTML page.

Incorrect handling of confusable characters in URL Formatter in Google Chrome prior to 71.0.3578.80 allowed a remote attacker to spoof the contents of the Omnibox (URL bar) via a crafted domain name.

Insufficient validate of external protocols in Shell Integration in Google Chrome on Windows prior to 71.0.3578.80 allowed a remote attacker to launch external programs via a crafted HTML page.

Failure to dismiss http auth dialogs on navigation in Network Authentication in Google Chrome on Android prior to 71.0.3578.80 allowed a remote attacker to confuse the user about the origin of an auto dialog via a crafted HTML page.

Service works could inappropriately gain access to cross origin audio in Media in Google Chrome prior to 71.0.3578.80 allowed a remote attacker to bypass same origin policy for audio content via a crafted HTML page.

Lack of proper validation of ancestor frames site when sending lax cookies in Navigation in Google Chrome prior to 71.0.3578.80 allowed a remote attacker to bypass SameSite cookie policy via a crafted HTML page.

Incorrect handling of CSP enforcement during navigations in Blink in Google Chrome prior to 71.0.3578.80 allowed a remote attacker to bypass content security policy via a crafted HTML page.

Remote frame navigations was incorrectly permitted to local resources in Blink in Google Chrome prior to 71.0.3578.80 allowed an attacker who convinced a user to install a malicious extension to access files on the local file system via a crafted Chrome Extension.

Incorrect handling of bidirectional domain names with RTL characters in Omnibox in Google Chrome prior to 71.0.3578.80 allowed a remote attacker to spoof the contents of the Omnibox (URL bar) via a crafted domain name.

Incorrect handling of blob URLS in Site Isolation in Google Chrome prior to 71.0.3578.80 allowed a remote attacker who had compromised the renderer process to bypass site isolation protections via a crafted HTML page.

Inappropriate allowance of the setDownloadBehavior devtools protocol feature in Extensions in Google Chrome prior to 71.0.3578.80 allowed a remote attacker with control of an installed extension to access files on the local file system via a crafted Chrome Extension.

Execution of user supplied Javascript during object deserialization can update object length leading to an out of bounds write in V8 in Google Chrome prior to 71.0.3578.80 allowed a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code inside a sandbox via a crafted HTML page.

Heap buffer overflow in Skia in Google Chrome prior to 71.0.3578.80 allowed a remote attacker to potentially exploit heap corruption via a crafted HTML page.

Perl before 5.26.3 and 5.28.x before 5.28.1 has a buffer overflow via a crafted regular expression that triggers invalid write operations.

Execution of user supplied Javascript during array deserialization leading to an out of bounds write in V8 in Google Chrome prior to 71.0.3578.80 allowed a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code inside a sandbox via a crafted HTML page.

It was found that RHSA-2018:2918 did not fully fix CVE-2018-16509. An attacker could possibly exploit another variant of the flaw and bypass the -dSAFER protection to, for example, execute arbitrary shell commands via a specially crafted PostScript document. This only affects ghostscript 9.07 as shipped with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.
