Security Vulnerabilities, CVEs, Published In May 2008

Linux kernel before 2.4.21 allows local users to cause a denial of service (kernel panic) via asynchronous input or output on a FIFO special file.

sealert in setroubleshoot 2.0.5 allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on the sealert.log temporary file.

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in setroubleshoot 2.0.5 allows local users to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via a crafted (1) file or (2) process name, which triggers an Access Vector Cache (AVC) log entry in a log file used during composition of HTML documents for sealert.

The Xen hypervisor block backend driver for Linux kernel 2.6.18, when running on a 64-bit host with a 32-bit paravirtualized guest, allows local privileged users in the guest OS to cause a denial of service (host OS crash) via a request that specifies a large number of blocks.

Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in CGI programs in Nagios before 2.12 might allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via unspecified vectors, a different issue than CVE-2007-5624 and CVE-2008-1360.

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the Red Hat Network channel search feature, as used in RHN and Red Hat Network Satellite before 5.0.2, allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via unknown vectors.

Memory leak in a certain Red Hat patch, applied to vsftpd 2.0.5 on Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 5 and Fedora 6 through 8, and on Foresight Linux and rPath appliances, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via a large number of CWD commands, as demonstrated by an attack on a daemon with the deny_file configuration option.

The IPsec implementation in Linux kernel before 2.6.25 allows remote routers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a fragmented ESP packet in which the first fragment does not contain the entire ESP header and IV.

The Akamai Download Manager (aka DLM or dlmanager) ActiveX control (DownloadManagerV2.ocx) before 2.2.3.5 allows remote attackers to force the download and execution of arbitrary code via unspecified "undocumented object parameters."

Unspecified vulnerability in Microsoft Publisher in Office 2000 and XP SP3, 2003 SP2 and SP3, and 2007 SP1 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a Publisher file with crafted object header data that triggers memory corruption, aka "Publisher Object Handler Validation Vulnerability."

OpenSSL 0.9.8c-1 up to versions before 0.9.8g-9 on Debian-based operating systems uses a random number generator that generates predictable numbers, which makes it easier for remote attackers to conduct brute force guessing attacks against cryptographic keys.

The write_array_file function in utils/include.pl in GForge 4.5.14 updates configuration files by truncating them to zero length and then writing new data, which might allow attackers to bypass intended access restrictions or have unspecified other impact in opportunistic circumstances.

The I2O Utility Filter driver (i2omgmt.sys) 5.1.2600.2180 for Microsoft Windows XP sets Everyone/Write permissions for the "\\.\I2OExc" device interface, which allows local users to gain privileges. NOTE: this issue can be leveraged to overwrite arbitrary memory and execute code via an IOCTL call with a crafted DeviceObject pointer.

The SSH server in (1) Cisco Service Control Engine (SCE) before 3.1.6, and (2) Icon Labs Iconfidant SSH before 2.3.8, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (device restart or daemon outage) via a high rate of login attempts, aka Bug ID CSCsi68582.

Unspecified vulnerability in the SSH server in (1) Cisco Service Control Engine (SCE) before 3.1.6, and (2) Icon Labs Iconfidant SSH before 2.3.8, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (device instability) via "SSH credentials that attempt to change the authentication method," aka Bug ID CSCsm14239.

Unspecified vulnerability in the SSH server in (1) Cisco Service Control Engine (SCE) 3.0.x before 3.0.7 and 3.1.x before 3.1.0, and (2) Icon Labs Iconfidant SSH before 2.3.8, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (management interface outage) via SSH traffic that occurs during management operations and triggers "illegal I/O operations," aka Bug ID CSCsh49563.

The init_request_info function in sapi/cgi/cgi_main.c in PHP before 5.2.6 does not properly consider operator precedence when calculating the length of PATH_TRANSLATED, which might allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted URI.

Unspecified vulnerability in the FTP server for HP-UX B.11.11, B.11.23, and B.11.31 allows remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (FTP server outage) via unknown attack vectors.

Double free vulnerability in OpenSSL 0.9.8f and 0.9.8g, when the TLS server name extensions are enabled, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a malformed Client Hello packet. NOTE: some of these details are obtained from third party information.

Stack-based buffer overflow in the Creative Software AutoUpdate Engine ActiveX control in CTSUEng.ocx allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long CacheFolder property value.

Multiple stack-based buffer overflows in the PhotoStockPlus Uploader Tool ActiveX control (PSPUploader.ocx) allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via unspecified initialization parameters.

Multiple stack-based buffer overflows in the Online Media Technologies NCTSoft NCTAudioGrabber2 ActiveX control in NCTAudioGrabber2.dll allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via unspecified vectors.

Multiple stack-based buffer overflows in the Online Media Technologies NCTSoft NCTAudioInformation2 ActiveX control in NCTAudioInformation2.dll, as used in (1) Power Audio CD Grabber 1.0, (2) Power Audio CD Burner 1.02, (3) CinematicMP3 1.4.0.0, (4) Alive MP3 WAV Converter 3.9.3.2, and possibly other products, allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via unspecified vectors.

Unspecified vulnerability in Microsoft Word in Office 2000 and XP SP3, 2003 SP2 and SP3, and 2007 Office System SP1 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a Rich Text Format (.rtf) file with a malformed string that triggers a "memory calculation error" and a heap-based buffer overflow, aka "Object Parsing Vulnerability."

Stack-based buffer overflow in Foxit Reader before 2.3 build 2912 allows user-assisted remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted PDF file, related to the util.printf JavaScript function and floating point specifiers in format strings.
