Amazon Linux AMI : tomcat6 (ALAS-2011-25)

Certain AJP protocol connector implementations in Apache Tomcat 7.0.0 through 7.0.20, 6.0.0 through 6.0.33, 5.5.0 through 5.5.33, and possibly other versions allow remote attackers to spoof AJP requests, bypass authentication, and obtain sensitive information by causing the connector to interpret...

Amazon Linux AMI : openswan (ALAS-2011-06)

When an ISAKMP message with an invalid KEYLENGTH attribute is received, the error handling function crashes on a NULL pointer dereference. Openswan automatically restarts the pluto IKE daemon but all ISAKMP state is lost. This vulnerability does NOT allow an attacker access to the system. This ca...

Amazon Linux AMI : perl-DBD-Pg (ALAS-2012-112)

Two format string flaws were found in perl-DBD-Pg. A specially crafted database warning or error message from a server could cause an application using perl-DBD-Pg to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the application. CVE-2012-1151 C Tenable...

Amazon Linux AMI : puppet (ALAS-2013-213)

Puppet 2.7.x before 2.7.22 and 3.2.x before 3.2.2, and Puppet Enterprise before 2.8.2, deserializes untrusted YAML, which allows remote attackers to instantiate arbitrary Ruby classes and execute arbitrary code via a crafted REST API call. C Tenable Network Security, Inc. The descriptive text and...

Amazon Linux AMI : php (ALAS-2012-77)

A flaw was found in the way the php-cgi executable processed command line arguments when running in CGI mode. A remote attacker could send a specially crafted request to a PHP script that would result in the query string being parsed by php-cgi as command line options and arguments. This could le...

Amazon Linux AMI : kernel (ALAS-2012-142)

A use-after-free flaw was found in the Linux kernel's memory management subsystem in the way quota handling for huge pages was performed. A local, unprivileged user could use this flaw to cause a denial of service or, potentially, escalate their privileges. CVE-2012-2133 , Moderate A use-after-fr...

Amazon Linux AMI : libpng (ALAS-2012-56)

A heap-based buffer overflow flaw was found in the way libpng processed compressed chunks in PNG image files. An attacker could create a specially crafted PNG image file that, when opened, could cause an application using libpng to crash or, possibly, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of...

Amazon Linux AMI : openssl (ALAS-2013-171)

It was discovered that OpenSSL leaked timing information when decrypting TLS/SSL and DTLS protocol encrypted records when CBC-mode cipher suites were used. A remote attacker could possibly use this flaw to retrieve plain text from the encrypted packets by using a TLS/SSL or DTLS server as a paddi...

Amazon Linux AMI : glibc (ALAS-2012-120)

Multiple integer overflow flaws, leading to stack-based buffer overflows, were found in glibc's functions for converting a string to a numeric representation strtod, strtof, and strtold. If an application used such a function on attacker controlled input, it could cause the application to crash o...

Amazon Linux AMI : openldap (ALAS-2012-101)

A denial of service flaw was found in the way the OpenLDAP server daemon slapd processed certain search queries requesting only attributes and no values. In certain configurations, a remote attacker could issue a specially crafted LDAP search query that, when processed by slapd, would cause slapd...

Amazon Linux AMI : kernel (ALAS-2012-83)

It was found that the datalen parameter of the sockallocsendpskb function in the Linux kernel's networking implementation was not validated before use. A local user with access to a TUN/TAP virtual interface could use this flaw to crash the system or, potentially, escalate their privileges. Note...

Amazon Linux AMI : cups (ALAS-2013-170)

It was discovered that CUPS administrative users members of the SystemGroups groups who are permitted to perform CUPS configuration changes via the CUPS web interface could manipulate the CUPS configuration to gain unintended privileges. Such users could read or write arbitrary files with the...

Amazon Linux AMI : ruby (ALAS-2012-35)

Ruby aka CRuby before 1.8.7-p357 computes hash values without restricting the ability to trigger hash collisions predictably, which allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service CPU consumption via crafted input to an application that maintains a hash table. C Tenable Network...

Amazon Linux AMI : kernel (ALAS-2011-22)

The epoll implementation in the Linux kernel 2.6.37.2 and earlier does not properly traverse a tree of epoll file descriptors, which allows local users to cause a denial of service CPU consumption via a crafted application that makes epollcreate and epollctl system calls. Buffer overflow in the...

Amazon Linux AMI : rsyslog (ALAS-2012-105)

A numeric truncation error, leading to a heap-based buffer overflow, was found in the way the rsyslog imfile module processed text files containing long lines. An attacker could use this flaw to crash the rsyslogd daemon or, possibly, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of rsyslogd, if the...

Amazon Linux AMI : php (ALAS-2013-211)

A buffer overflow flaw was found in the way PHP parsed deeply nested XML documents. If a PHP application used the xmlparseintostruct function to parse untrusted XML content, an attacker able to supply specially crafted XML could use this flaw to crash the application or, possibly, execute arbitra...

Amazon Linux AMI : libxml2 (ALAS-2012-36)

A heap-based buffer overflow flaw was found in the way libxml2 decoded entity references with long names. A remote attacker could provide a specially crafted XML file that, when opened in an application linked against libxml2, would cause the application to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrar...

Amazon Linux AMI : krb5 (ALAS-2011-28)

A NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in the way the MIT Kerberos KDC processed certain TGS Ticket-granting Server requests. A remote, authenticated attacker could use this flaw to crash the KDC via a specially crafted TGS request. CVE-2011-1530 C Tenable Network Security, Inc. The descriptiv...

Amazon Linux AMI : libproxy (ALAS-2012-140)

A buffer overflow flaw was found in the way libproxy handled the downloading of proxy auto-configuration PAC files. A malicious server hosting a PAC file or a man-in-the-middle attacker could use this flaw to cause an application using libproxy to crash or, possibly, execute arbitrary code, if th...
