Amazon Linux AMI : puppet (ALAS-2012-53)

Puppet 2.6.x before 2.6.14 and 2.7.x before 2.7.11, and Puppet Enterprise PE Users 1.0, 1.1, 1.2.x, 2.0.x before 2.0.3, when managing a user login file with the k5login resource type, allows local users to gain privileges via a symlink attack on .k5login. The changeuser method in the SUIDManager...

Amazon Linux AMI : libtirpc (ALAS-2013-199)

A flaw was found in the way libtirpc decoded RPC requests. A specially crafted RPC request could cause libtirpc to attempt to free a buffer provided by an application using the library, even when the buffer was not dynamically allocated. This could cause an application using libtirpc, such as...

Amazon Linux AMI : openssl098e (ALAS-2012-73)

Multiple numeric conversion errors, leading to a buffer overflow, were found in the way OpenSSL parsed ASN.1 Abstract Syntax Notation One data from BIO OpenSSL's I/O abstraction inputs. Specially crafted DER Distinguished Encoding Rules encoded data read from a file or other BIO input could cause...

Amazon Linux AMI : python-crypto (ALAS-2012-86)

PyCrypto before 2.6 does not produce appropriate prime numbers when using an ElGamal scheme to generate a key, which reduces the signature space or public key space and makes it easier for attackers to conduct brute-force attacks to obtain the private key. C Tenable Network Security, Inc. The...

Amazon Linux AMI : libxml2 (ALAS-2012-134)

Multiple integer overflow flaws, leading to heap-based buffer overflows, were found in the way libxml2 handled documents that enable entity expansion. A remote attacker could provide a large, specially crafted XML file that, when opened in an application linked against libxml2, would cause the...

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 : 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 : 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 : t1lib (ALAS-2012-40)

Two heap-based buffer overflow flaws were found in the way t1lib processed Adobe Font Metrics AFM files. If a specially crafted font file was opened by an application linked against t1lib, it could cause the application to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the...

Amazon Linux AMI : postgresql8 (ALAS-2012-129)

It was found that the optional PostgreSQL xml2 contrib module allowed local files and remote URLs to be read and written to with the privileges of the database server when parsing Extensible Stylesheet Language Transformations XSLT. An unprivileged database user could use this flaw to read and...
