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 : gnutls (ALAS-2014-352)

A flaw was found in the way GnuTLS parsed session IDs from ServerHello messages of the TLS/SSL handshake. A malicious server could use this flaw to send an excessively long session ID value, which would trigger a buffer overflow in a connecting TLS/SSL client application using GnuTLS, causing the...

Amazon Linux AMI : libtiff (ALAS-2014-365)

Use-after-free vulnerability in the t2preadwritepdfimage function in tools/tiff2pdf.c in libtiff 4.0.3 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service crash or possible execute arbitrary code via a crafted TIFF image. The LZW decompressor in the gif2tiff tool in libtiff 4.0.3 and earlier...
