Amazon Linux 2 : procps-ng (ALAS-2018-1031)

Multiple integer overflows leading to heap corruption flaws were discovered in file2strvec. These vulnerabilities can lead to privilege escalation for a local attacker who can create entries in procfs by starting processes, which will lead to crashes or arbitrary code execution in proc utilities...

Amazon Linux 2 : 389-ds-base (ALAS-2018-1036)

It was found that 389-ds-base did not properly handle long search filters with characters needing escapes, possibly leading to buffer overflows. A remote, unauthenticated attacker could potentially use this flaw to make ns-slapd crash via a specially crafted LDAP request, thus resulting in denial...
