Security Vulnerabilities
- CVEs Published In January 2018
VNC server implementation in Quick Emulator (QEMU) 2.11.0 and older was found to be vulnerable to an unbounded memory allocation issue, as it did not throttle the framebuffer updates sent to its client. If the client did not consume these updates, VNC server allocates growing memory to hold onto this data. A malicious remote VNC client could use this flaw to cause DoS to the server host.
It was found that system umask policy is not being honored when creating XDG user directories, since Xsession sources xdg-user-dirs.sh before setting umask policy. This only affects xdg-user-dirs before 0.15.5 as shipped with Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
A Buffer Overflow issue was discovered in Rockwell Automation Allen-Bradley MicroLogix 1400 Controllers, Series B and C Versions 21.002 and earlier. The stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability has been identified, which may allow remote code execution.
An Cleartext Storage of Sensitive Information issue was discovered in General Motors (GM) and Shanghai OnStar (SOS) SOS iOS Client 7.1. Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow a remote attacker to access an encryption key that is stored in cleartext in memory.
SEMA driver in Intel Driver and Support Assistant before version 3.1.1 allows a local attacker the ability to read and writing to Memory Status registers potentially allowing information disclosure or a denial of service condition.
An Out-of-bounds Read issue was discovered in Adobe Flash Player before 28.0.0.137. This vulnerability occurs because of computation that reads data that is past the end of the target buffer. The use of an invalid (out-of-range) pointer offset during access of internal data structure fields causes the vulnerability. A successful attack can lead to sensitive data exposure.
MatrixSSL version 3.7.2 has an incorrect UTCTime date range validation in its X.509 certificate validation process resulting in some certificates have their expiration (beginning) year extended (delayed) by 100 years.
IBM UrbanCode Deploy (UCD) 6.1 and 6.2 could allow an authenticated user to edit objects that they should not have access to due to improper access controls. IBM X-Force ID: 128691.
IBM WebSphere MQ 7.0, 7.1, 7.5, 8.0, and 9.0 service trace module could be used to execute untrusted code under 'mqm' user. IBM X-Force ID: 132953.
IBM Tivoli Key Lifecycle Manager 2.5, 2.6, and 2.7 is vulnerable to a XML External Entity Injection (XXE) attack when processing XML data. A remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to expose sensitive information or consume memory resources. IBM X-Force ID: 133540.
