Amazon Linux AMI : jakarta-commons-httpclient (ALAS-2013-169)

The Jakarta Commons HttpClient component did not verify that the server hostname matched the domain name in the subject's Common Name CN or subjectAltName field in X.509 certificates. This could allow a man-in-the-middle attacker to spoof an SSL server if they had a certificate that was valid for...

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 : java-1.7.0-openjdk (ALAS-2013-168)

An integer overflow flaw was found in the way the 2D component handled certain sample model instances. A specially crafted sample model instance could cause Java Virtual Machine memory corruption and, possibly, lead to arbitrary code execution with virtual machine privileges. CVE-2013-0809 It was...

Amazon Linux AMI : httpd (ALAS-2013-193)

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 : php-pecl-apc (ALAS-2012-96)

A cross-site scripting XSS flaw was found in the 'apc.php' script, which provides a detailed analysis of the internal workings of APC and is shipped as part of the APC extension documentation.

Amazon Linux AMI : java-1.6.0-openjdk (ALAS-2013-207)

Multiple flaws were discovered in the ImagingLib and the image attribute, channel, layout and raster processing in the 2D component. An untrusted Java application or applet could possibly use these flaws to trigger Java Virtual Machine memory corruption. CVE-2013-2470 , CVE-2013-2471 ,...

Amazon Linux AMI : nrpe (ALAS-2013-203)

Incomplete blacklist vulnerability in nrpc.c in Nagios Remote Plug-In Executor NRPE before 2.14 might allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary shell commands via '$' shell metacharacters, which are processed by bash. C Tenable Network Security, Inc. The descriptive text and package checks in...

Amazon Linux AMI : puppet (ALAS-2011-11)

Puppet 2.7.x before 2.7.5, 2.6.x before 2.6.11, and 0.25.x, when running in --edit mode, uses a predictable file name, which allows local users to run arbitrary Puppet code or trick a user into editing arbitrary files. Puppet 2.7.x before 2.7.5, 2.6.x before 2.6.11, and 0.25.x allows local users ...

Amazon Linux AMI : bind (ALAS-2012-113)

An uninitialized data structure use flaw was found in BIND when DNSSEC validation was enabled. A remote attacker able to send a large number of queries to a DNSSEC validating BIND resolver could use this flaw to cause it to exit unexpectedly with an assertion failure. CVE-2012-3817 C Tenable...

Amazon Linux AMI : openjpeg (ALAS-2012-125)

It was found that OpenJPEG failed to sanity-check an image header field before using it.
