Amazon Linux AMI : libtasn1 (ALAS-2012-60)

A flaw was found in the way libtasn1 decoded DER data. An attacker could create carefully-crafted DER encoded input such as an X.509 certificate that, when parsed by an application that uses libtasn1 such as applications using GnuTLS, could cause the application to crash. CVE-2012-1569 C Tenable...

Amazon Linux AMI : httpd24 (ALAS-2013-194)

Cross-site scripting XSS flaws were found in the modproxybalancer module's manager web interface. If a remote attacker could trick a user, who was logged into the manager web interface, into visiting a specially crafted URL, it would lead to arbitrary web script execution in the context of the...

Amazon Linux AMI : postgresql9 (ALAS-2012-91)

The cryptdes aka DES-based crypt function in FreeBSD before 9.0-RELEASE-p2, as used in PHP, PostgreSQL, and other products, does not process the complete cleartext password if this password contains a 0x80 character, which makes it easier for context-dependent attackers to obtain access via an...

Amazon Linux AMI : nvidia (ALAS-2012-67)

The NVIDIA UNIX driver before 295.40 allows local users to access arbitrary memory locations by leveraging GPU device-node read/write privileges. C Tenable Network Security, Inc. The descriptive text and package checks in this plugin were extracted from Amazon Linux AMI Security Advisory...

Amazon Linux AMI : python26 (ALAS-2012-80)

SimpleXMLRPCServer.py in SimpleXMLRPCServer in Python before 2.6.8, 2.7.x before 2.7.3, 3.x before 3.1.5, and 3.2.x before 3.2.3 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service infinite loop and CPU consumption via an XML-RPC POST request that contains a smaller amount of data than specified...

Amazon Linux AMI : libexif (ALAS-2012-126)

Multiple flaws were found in the way libexif processed Exif tags. An attacker could create a specially crafted image file that, when opened in an application linked against libexif, could cause the application to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user runnin...

Amazon Linux AMI : freeradius (ALAS-2012-131)

A buffer overflow flaw was discovered in the way radiusd handled the expiration date field in X.509 client certificates. A remote attacker could possibly use this flaw to crash radiusd if it were configured to use the certificate or TLS tunnelled authentication methods such as EAP-TLS, EAP-TTLS,...

Amazon Linux AMI : subversion (ALAS-2013-180)

A NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in the way the moddavsvn module handled PROPFIND requests on activity URLs. A remote attacker could use this flaw to cause the httpd process serving the request to crash. CVE-2013-1849 A flaw was found in the way the moddavsvn module handled large numbers...

Amazon Linux AMI : glibc (ALAS-2012-39)

An integer overflow flaw, leading to a heap-based buffer overflow, was found in the way the glibc library read timezone files. If a carefully-crafted timezone file was loaded by an application linked against glibc, it could cause the application to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code wi...

Amazon Linux AMI : gdb (ALAS-2013-159)

GDB tried to auto-load certain files such as GDB scripts, Python scripts, and a thread debugging library from the current working directory when debugging programs. This could result in the execution of arbitrary code with the user's privileges when GDB was run in a directory that has untrusted...

Amazon Linux AMI : rpm (ALAS-2011-14)

Multiple flaws were found in the way the RPM library parsed package headers. An attacker could create a specially crafted RPM package that, when queried or installed, would cause rpm to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code. CVE-2011-3378 C Tenable Network Security, Inc. The descriptive...

Amazon Linux AMI : tomcat7 (ALAS-2013-191)

java/org/apache/catalina/core/AsyncContextImpl.java in Apache Tomcat 7.x before 7.0.40 does not properly handle the throwing of a RuntimeException in an AsyncListener in an application, which allows context-dependent attackers to obtain sensitive request information intended for other application...
