Security Vulnerabilities
- CVEs Published In February 2018
An XSS issue was discovered in Designer Studio in Pegasystems Pega Platform 7.1.7, 7.1.8, 7.1.9, 7.1.10, 7.2, 7.2.1, and 7.2.2. A user with developer credentials can insert malicious code (up to 64 characters) into a text field in Designer Studio, after establishing context. Designer Studio is the developer workbench for Pega Platform. That XSS payload will execute when other developers visit the affected pages.
Shibboleth XMLTooling-C before 1.6.4, as used in Shibboleth Service Provider before 2.6.1.4 on Windows and other products, mishandles digital signatures of user data, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information or conduct impersonation attacks via crafted XML data. NOTE: this issue exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2018-0486.
In index.php in WonderCMS before 2.4.1, remote attackers can delete arbitrary files via directory traversal.
The __oom_reap_task_mm function in mm/oom_kill.c in the Linux kernel before 4.14.4 mishandles gather operations, which allows attackers to cause a denial of service (TLB entry leak or use-after-free) or possibly have unspecified other impact by triggering a copy_to_user call within a certain time window.
An issue was discovered in Adobe Acrobat Reader 2018.009.20050 and earlier versions, 2017.011.30070 and earlier versions, 2015.006.30394 and earlier versions. This vulnerability is an instance of a heap overflow vulnerability in the JavaScript engine. The vulnerability is triggered by a PDF file with crafted JavaScript code that manipulates the optional content group (OCG). A successful attack can lead to code corruption, control-flow hijack, or a code re-use attack.

This vulnerability is an instance of a use after free vulnerability in the JavaScript API related to bookmark functionality. The vulnerability is triggered by crafted JavaScript code embedded within a PDF file. A successful attack can lead to code corruption, control-flow hijack, or a code re-use attack.
An issue was discovered in Adobe Acrobat Reader 2018.009.20050 and earlier versions, 2017.011.30070 and earlier versions, 2015.006.30394 and earlier versions. This vulnerability occurs as a result of computation that reads data that is past the end of the target buffer; the computation is part of the image conversion module that handles JPEG 2000 data. A successful attack can lead to sensitive data exposure.

This vulnerability is an instance of a use after free vulnerability in the XFA engine, related to DOM manipulation. The vulnerability is triggered by crafted XFA script definitions in a PDF file. Successful exploitation could lead to arbitrary code execution.

This vulnerability occurs as a result of computation that reads data that is past the end of the target buffer; the computation is part of the TIFF processing in the XPS engine. A successful attack can lead to sensitive data exposure.

The vulnerability is caused by the computation that writes data past the end of the intended buffer; the computation is part of the JavaScript API related to color conversion. An attacker can potentially leverage the vulnerability to corrupt sensitive data or execute arbitrary code.
