CVE-2014-3618 C Tenable...

Amazon Linux AMI : ca-certificates (ALAS-2011-3)

This package contains the set of CA certificates chosen by the Mozilla Foundation for use with the Internet Public Key Infrastructure PKI. It was found that a Certificate Authority CA issued fraudulent HTTPS certificates. This update removes that CA's root certificate from the ca-certificates...

Amazon Linux AMI : json-c (ALAS-2014-416)

The hash functionality in json-c before 0.12 allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service CPU consumption via crafted JSON data, involving collisions. Buffer overflow in the printbuf APIs in json-c before 0.12 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via unspecified...

Amazon Linux AMI : gnupg (ALAS-2014-378)

The douncompress function in g10/compress.c in GnuPG 1.x before 1.4.17 and 2.x before 2.0.24 allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service infinite loop via malformed compressed packets, as demonstrated by an a3 01 5b ff byte sequence. C Tenable Network Security, Inc. The...

Amazon Linux AMI : perl-FCGI (ALAS-2011-5)

The FCGI aka Fast CGI module 0.70 through 0.73 for Perl, as used by CGI::Fast, uses environment variable values from one request during processing of a later request, which allows remote attackers to bypass authentication via crafted HTTP headers. C Tenable Network Security, Inc. The descriptive...

Amazon Linux AMI : GraphicsMagick (ALAS-2014-420)

A buffer overflow flaw affecting ImageMagick and GraphicsMagic when handling PSD images was reported. C Tenable Network Security, Inc. The descriptive text and package checks in this plugin were extracted from Amazon Linux AMI Security Advisory ALAS-2014-420. include"compat.inc"; if description...

Amazon Linux AMI : nginx (ALAS-2014-421)

A virtual host confusion issue was found in nginx, allowing HTTPS connections for one origin to be redirected to the virtual host of a different origin. This leads to a variety of issues, such as cookie theft and session hijacking. It could be triggered from a cross-site scripting flaw, tricking ...

Amazon Linux AMI : openssh (ALAS-2014-369)

sshd in OpenSSH before 6.6 does not properly support wildcards on AcceptEnv lines in sshdconfig, which allows remote attackers to bypass intended environment restrictions by using a substring located before a wildcard character. The verifyhostkey function in sshconnect.c in the client in OpenSSH...

Amazon Linux AMI : cyrus-sasl (ALAS-2014-338)

Cyrus SASL 2.1.23, 2.1.26, and earlier does not properly handle when a NULL value is returned upon an error by the crypt function as implemented in glibc 2.17 and later, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service thread crash and consumption via 1 an invalid salt or, when FIPS-140...

Amazon Linux AMI : chkrootkit (ALAS-2014-370)

A quoting issue was found in chkrootkit which would lead to a file in /tmp/ being executed, if /tmp/ was mounted without the noexec option. chkrootkit is typically run as the root user. A local attacker could use this flaw to escalate their privileges. C Tenable Network Security, Inc. The...

Amazon Linux AMI : tomcat6 (ALAS-2014-344)

It was found that when Tomcat processed a series of HTTP requests in which at least one request contained either multiple content-length headers, or one content-length header with a chunked transfer-encoding header, Tomcat would incorrectly handle the request. A remote attacker could use this fla...

Amazon Linux AMI : freetype (ALAS-2011-8)

Multiple input validation flaws were found in the way FreeType processed bitmap font files. If a specially crafted font file was loaded by an application linked against FreeType, it could cause the application to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user runnin...

Amazon Linux AMI : 389-ds-base (ALAS-2014-396)

It was found that when replication was enabled for each attribute in 389 Directory Server, which is the default configuration, the server returned replicated metadata when the directory was searched while debugging was enabled. A remote attacker could use this flaw to disclose potentially sensiti...

Amazon Linux AMI : ImageMagick (ALAS-2014-336)

A buffer overflow flaw was found in the way ImageMagick handled PSD images that use RLE encoding. An attacker could create a malicious PSD image file that, when opened in ImageMagick, would cause ImageMagick to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running...

Amazon Linux AMI : php (ALAS-2014-393)

A denial of service flaw was found in the way the File Information fileinfo extension parsed certain Composite Document Format CDF files. A remote attacker could use this flaw to crash a PHP application using fileinfo via a specially crafted CDF file. acinclude.m4, as used in the configure script...

Amazon Linux AMI : lua (ALAS-2014-402)

Buffer overflow in the vararg functions in ldo.c in Lua 5.1 through 5.2.x before 5.2.3 allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service crash via a small number of arguments to a function with a large number of fixed arguments. C Tenable Network Security, Inc. The descriptive text...

Amazon Linux AMI : transmission (ALAS-2014-390)

Integer overflow in the trbitfieldEnsureNthBitAlloced function in bitfield.c in Transmission before 2.84 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted peer message, which triggers an out-of-bounds write.
