- CVEs Published In August 2018
Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the Wordfence Security plugin before 5.1.5 for WordPress allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the val parameter to whois.php.
SQL injection vulnerability in phpMyFAQ before 2.8.13 allows remote authenticated users with certain permissions to execute arbitrary SQL commands via vectors involving the restore function.
Multiple cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerabilities in phpMyFAQ before 2.8.13 allow remote attackers to hijack the authentication of unspecified users for requests that (1) delete active users by leveraging improper validation of CSRF tokens or that (2) delete open questions, (3) activate users, (4) publish FAQs, (5) add or delete Glossary, (6) add or delete FAQ news, or (7) add or delete comments or add votes by leveraging lack of a CSRF token.
The ProfileLinkUserFormat component of Jira Server before version 7.6.8, from version 7.7.0 before version 7.7.5, from version 7.8.0 before version 7.8.5, from version 7.9.0 before version 7.9.3, from version 7.10.0 before version 7.10.3 and from version 7.11.0 before version 7.11.2 allows remote attackers who can access & view an issue to obtain the email address of the reporter and assignee user of an issue despite the configured email visibility setting being set to hidden.
Various resources in Atlassian Jira before version 7.6.8, from version 7.7.0 before version 7.7.5, from version 7.8.0 before version 7.8.5, from version 7.9.0 before version 7.9.3, from version 7.10.0 before version 7.10.3 and before version 7.11.1 allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary HTML or JavaScript via a cross site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the epic colour field of an issue while an issue is being moved.
IBM Platform Symphony 7.1 Fix Pack 1 and 7.1.1 and IBM Spectrum Symphony 7.1.2 and 7.2.0.2 contain an information disclosure vulnerability that could allow an authenticated attacker to obtain highly sensitive information. IBM X-Force ID: 146340.
Remotely observable behaviour in auth-gss2.c in OpenSSH through 7.8 could be used by remote attackers to detect existence of users on a target system when GSS2 is in use. NOTE: the discoverer states 'We understand that the OpenSSH developers do not want to treat such a username enumeration (or "oracle") as a vulnerability.'
In Artifex Ghostscript 9.23 before 2018-08-24, attackers able to supply crafted PostScript could use uninitialized memory access in the aesdecode operator to crash the interpreter or potentially execute code.
A vulnerability was found in openstack-cinder releases up to and including Queens, allowing newly created volumes in certain storage volume configurations to contain previous data. It specifically affects ScaleIO volumes using thin volumes and zero padding. This could lead to leakage of sensitive information between tenants.
In Artifex Ghostscript 9.23 before 2018-08-23, attackers are able to supply malicious PostScript files to bypass .tempfile restrictions and write files.
