Amazon Linux AMI : ruby (ALAS-2012-139)

Ruby 1.8.7 before patchlevel 371, 1.9.3 before patchlevel 286, and 2.0 before revision r37068 allows context-dependent attackers to bypass safe-level restrictions and modify untainted strings via the nameerrmesgtostr API function, which marks the string as tainted, a different vulnerability than...

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 : bind (ALAS-2012-138)

A flaw was found in the way BIND handled certain combinations of resource records. A remote attacker could use this flaw to cause a recursive resolver, or an authoritative server in certain configurations, to lockup. CVE-2012-5166 C Tenable Network Security, Inc. The descriptive text and package...

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 : libxml2 (ALAS-2012-52)

It was found that the hashing routine used by libxml2 arrays was susceptible to predictable hash collisions. Sending a specially crafted message to an XML service could result in longer processing time, which could lead to a denial of service. To mitigate this issue, randomization has been added ...

Amazon Linux AMI : php54 (ALAS-2013-206)

Heap-based buffer overflow in the phpquotprintencode function in ext/standard/quotprint.c in PHP before 5.3.26 and 5.4.x before 5.4.16 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service application crash or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted argument to the quotedprintableenco...

Amazon Linux AMI : puppet (ALAS-2012-75)

Puppet 2.6.x before 2.6.15 and 2.7.x before 2.7.13, and Puppet Enterprise PE Users 1.0, 1.1, 1.2.x, 2.0.x, and 2.5.x before 2.5.1 allows remote authenticated users with an authorized SSL key and certain permissions on the puppet master to read arbitrary files via a symlink attack in conjunction...

Amazon Linux AMI : libtiff (ALAS-2012-65)

Two integer overflow flaws, leading to heap-based buffer overflows, were found in the way libtiff attempted to allocate space for a tile in a TIFF image file. An attacker could use these flaws to create a specially crafted TIFF file that, when opened, would cause an application linked against...

Amazon Linux AMI : dhcp (ALAS-2013-157)

A flaw was found in the way the dhcpd daemon handled the expiration time of IPv6 leases. If dhcpd's configuration was changed to reduce the default IPv6 lease time, lease renewal requests for previously assigned leases could cause dhcpd to crash. CVE-2012-3955 C Tenable Network Security, Inc. The...

Amazon Linux AMI : php (ALAS-2012-37)

It was found that the hashing routine used by PHP arrays was susceptible to predictable hash collisions. If an HTTP POST request to a PHP application contained many parameters whose names map to the same hash value, a large amount of CPU time would be consumed. This flaw has been mitigated by...

Amazon Linux AMI : bind (ALAS-2012-84)

A flaw was found in the way BIND handled zero length resource data records. A malicious owner of a DNS domain could use this flaw to create specially crafted DNS resource records that would cause a recursive resolver or secondary server to crash or, possibly, disclose portions of its memory...

Amazon Linux AMI : libtiff (ALAS-2012-147)

A heap-based buffer overflow flaw was found in the way libtiff processed certain TIFF images using the Pixar Log Format encoding. An attacker could create a specially crafted TIFF file that, when opened, could cause an application using libtiff to crash or, possibly, execute arbitrary code with t...

Amazon Linux AMI : openssl (ALAS-2012-72)

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 : httpd24 (ALAS-2013-175)

Multiple cross-site scripting XSS vulnerabilities in the balancerhandler function in the manager interface in modproxybalancer.c in the modproxybalancer module in the Apache HTTP Server 2.2.x before 2.2.24-dev and 2.4.x before 2.4.4 allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML vi...

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 : openjpeg (ALAS-2012-111)

An input validation flaw, leading to a heap-based buffer overflow, was found in the way OpenJPEG handled the tile number and size in an image tile header. A remote attacker could provide a specially crafted image file that, when decoded using an application linked against OpenJPEG, would cause th...

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 : dnsmasq (ALAS-2013-161)

It was discovered that dnsmasq, when used in combination with certain libvirtd configurations, could incorrectly process network packets from network interfaces that were intended to be prohibited. A remote, unauthenticated attacker could exploit this flaw to cause a denial of service via DNS...

Amazon Linux AMI : httpd (ALAS-2013-174)

Multiple cross-site scripting XSS vulnerabilities in the balancerhandler function in the manager interface in modproxybalancer.c in the modproxybalancer module in the Apache HTTP Server 2.2.x before 2.2.24-dev and 2.4.x before 2.4.4 allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML vi...

Amazon Linux AMI : mysql51 (ALAS-2012-145)

A stack-based buffer overflow flaw was found in the user permission checking code in MySQL. An authenticated database user could use this flaw to crash the mysqld daemon or, potentially, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the mysqld daemon. CVE-2012-5611 C Tenable...
