Amazon Linux AMI : bind (ALAS-2013-176)

A denial of service flaw was found in the libdns library. A remote attacker could use this flaw to send a specially crafted DNS query to named that, when processed, would cause named to use an excessive amount of memory, or possibly crash. CVE-2013-2266 C Tenable Network Security, Inc. The...

Amazon Linux AMI : php (ALAS-2012-41)

It was discovered that the fix for CVE-2011-4885 introduced an uninitialized memory use flaw.

The descriptive text and package...

Amazon Linux AMI : openssl (ALAS-2012-38)

It was discovered that the Datagram Transport Layer Security DTLS protocol implementation in OpenSSL leaked timing information when performing certain operations. A remote attacker could possibly use this flaw to retrieve plain text from the encrypted packets by using a DTLS server as a padding...

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...
