Amazon Linux AMI : perltidy (ALAS-2014-356)

It was discovered that perltidy's maketemporaryfilename function insecurely created temporary files via the use of the tmpnam function. A local attacker could use this flaw to perform a symbolic link attack. C Tenable Network Security, Inc. The descriptive text and package checks in this plugin...

Amazon Linux AMI : php55 (ALAS-2014-362)

The cdfunpacksummaryinfo function in cdf.c in the Fileinfo component in PHP before 5.4.29 and 5.5.x before 5.5.13 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service performance degradation by triggering many fileprintf calls. The cdfreadpropertyinfo function in cdf.c in the Fileinfo component i...

Amazon Linux AMI : libxml2 (ALAS-2014-340)

parser.c in libxml2 before 2.9.0, as used in Google Chrome before 28.0.1500.71 and other products, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service out-of-bounds read via a document that ends abruptly, related to the lack of certain checks for the XMLPARSEREOF state. C Tenable Network Securit...

Amazon Linux AMI : lzo (ALAS-2014-373)

An integer overflow flaw was found in the way the lzo library decompressed certain archives compressed with the LZO algorithm. An attacker could create a specially crafted LZO-compressed input that, when decompressed by an application using the lzo library, would cause that application to crash o...

Amazon Linux AMI : cacti (ALAS-2014-347)

Cross-site request forgery CSRF vulnerability in Cacti 0.8.7g, 0.8.8b, and earlier allows remote attackers to hijack the authentication of users for unspecified commands, as demonstrated by requests that 1 modify binary files, 2 modify configurations, or 3 add arbitrary users. Cross-site scriptin...

Amazon Linux AMI : openssh (ALAS-2014-369)

sshd in OpenSSH before 6.6 does not properly support wildcards on AcceptEnv lines in sshdconfig, which allows remote attackers to bypass intended environment restrictions by using a substring located before a wildcard character. The verifyhostkey function in sshconnect.c in the client in OpenSSH...

Amazon Linux AMI : json-c (ALAS-2014-416)

The hash functionality in json-c before 0.12 allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service CPU consumption via crafted JSON data, involving collisions. Buffer overflow in the printbuf APIs in json-c before 0.12 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via unspecified...

Amazon Linux AMI : ca-certificates (ALAS-2011-3)

This package contains the set of CA certificates chosen by the Mozilla Foundation for use with the Internet Public Key Infrastructure PKI. It was found that a Certificate Authority CA issued fraudulent HTTPS certificates. This update removes that CA's root certificate from the ca-certificates...

Amazon Linux AMI : chkrootkit (ALAS-2014-370)

A quoting issue was found in chkrootkit which would lead to a file in /tmp/ being executed, if /tmp/ was mounted without the noexec option. chkrootkit is typically run as the root user. A local attacker could use this flaw to escalate their privileges. C Tenable Network Security, Inc. The...

Amazon Linux AMI : lighttpd (ALAS-2014-346)

Multiple directory traversal vulnerabilities in 1 modevhost and 2 modsimplevhost in lighttpd before 1.4.35 allow remote attackers to read arbitrary files via a .. dot dot in the host name, related to requestcheckhostname. SQL injection vulnerability in modmysqlvhost.c in lighttpd before 1.4.35...

Amazon Linux AMI : perl-FCGI (ALAS-2011-5)

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. C Tenable Network Security, Inc. The descriptive...

Amazon Linux AMI : kernel (ALAS-2014-363)

The futexrequeue function in kernel/futex.c in the Linux kernel through 3.14.5 does not ensure that calls have two different futex addresses, which allows local users to gain privileges via a crafted FUTEXREQUEUE command that facilitates unsafe waiter modification. C Tenable Network Security, Inc...

Amazon Linux AMI : bash (ALAS-2014-419)

GNU Bash through 4.3 bash43-025 processes trailing strings after certain malformed function definitions in the values of environment variables, which allows remote attackers to write to files or possibly have unknown other impact via a crafted environment, as demonstrated by vectors involving the...

Amazon Linux AMI : mod_security (ALAS-2014-335)
