Amazon Linux AMI : libpng (ALAS-2015-615)

It was discovered that the pnggetPLTE and pngsetPLTE functions of libpng did not correctly calculate the maximum palette sizes for bit depths of less than 8. In case an application tried to use these functions in combination with properly calculated palette sizes, this could lead to a buffer...

Amazon Linux AMI : xfsprogs (ALAS-2015-622)

It was discovered that the xfsmetadump tool of the xfsprogs suite did not fully adhere to the standards of obfuscation described in its man page. In case a user with the necessary privileges used xfsmetadump and relied on the advertised obfuscation, the generated data could contain unexpected...

Amazon Linux AMI : git (ALAS-2015-613)

A flaw was found in the way the git-remote-ext helper processed certain URLs. If a user had Git configured to automatically clone submodules from untrusted repositories, an attacker could inject commands into the URL of a submodule, allowing them to execute arbitrary code on the user's system. C...

Amazon Linux AMI : autofs (ALAS-2015-626)

It was found that program-based automounter maps that used interpreted languages such as Python would use standard environment variables to locate and load modules of those languages. A local attacker could potentially use this flaw to escalate their privileges on the system. C Tenable Network...

Amazon Linux AMI : postgresql8 (ALAS-2015-619)

A memory leak error was discovered in the crypt function of the pgCrypto extension. An authenticated attacker could possibly use this flaw to disclose a limited amount of the server memory.

Amazon Linux AMI : binutils (ALAS-2015-620)

A directory traversal flaw was found in the strip and objcopy utilities. A specially crafted file could cause strip or objdump to overwrite an arbitrary file writable by the user running either of these utilities. A buffer overflow flaw was found in the way various binutils utilities processed...

Amazon Linux AMI : krb5 (ALAS-2015-624)

A flaw was found in the OTP kdcpreauth module of MIT Kerberos. A remote attacker could use this flaw to bypass the requirespreauth flag on a client principal and obtain a ciphertext encrypted in the principal's long-term key. This ciphertext could be used to conduct an off-line dictionary attack...

Amazon Linux AMI : glibc (ALAS-2015-617)

A buffer overflow flaw was found in the way glibc's gethostbynamer and other related functions computed the size of a buffer when passed a misaligned buffer as input. An attacker able to make an application call any of these functions with a misaligned buffer could use this flaw to crash the...
