The 1 template and 2 inlinetemplate functions in the master server in Puppet before 2.6.18, 2.7.x before 2.7.21, and 3.1.x before 3.1.1, and Puppet Enterprise before 1.2.7 and 2.7.x before 2.7.2 allows remote authenticated users to execute arbitrary code via a crafted catalog request. C Tenable...

Amazon Linux AMI : t1lib (ALAS-2012-40)

Two heap-based buffer overflow flaws were found in the way t1lib processed Adobe Font Metrics AFM files. If a specially crafted font file was opened by an application linked against t1lib, it could cause the application to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the...

Amazon Linux AMI : openswan (ALAS-2013-192)

A buffer overflow flaw was found in Openswan. If Opportunistic Encryption were enabled 'oe=yes' in '/etc/ipsec.conf' and an RSA key configured, an attacker able to cause a system to perform a DNS lookup for an attacker-controlled domain containing malicious records such as by sending an email tha...

Amazon Linux AMI : kernel (ALAS-2011-22)

The epoll implementation in the Linux kernel 2.6.37.2 and earlier does not properly traverse a tree of epoll file descriptors, which allows local users to cause a denial of service CPU consumption via a crafted application that makes epollcreate and epollctl system calls. Buffer overflow in the...

Amazon Linux AMI : perl-FCGI (ALAS-2011-05)

The MITRE CVE database describes CVE-2011-2766 as : 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 header...

Amazon Linux AMI : bind (ALAS-2011-24)

A flaw was discovered in the way BIND handled certain DNS queries, which caused it to cache an invalid record. A remote attacker could use this flaw to send repeated queries for this invalid record, causing the resolvers to exit unexpectedly due to a failed assertion. C Tenable Network Security,...

Amazon Linux AMI : nginx (ALAS-2012-74)

Buffer overflow in ngxhttpmp4module.c in the ngxhttpmp4module module in nginx 1.0.7 through 1.0.14 and 1.1.3 through 1.1.18, when the mp4 directive is used, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service memory overwrite or possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted MP4 file. C Tenable...
