Security Vulnerabilities
- CVEs Published In October 2018
In ImageMagick 7.0.8-13 Q16, there is an infinite loop in the ReadBMPImage function of the coders/bmp.c file. Remote attackers could leverage this vulnerability to cause a denial of service via a crafted bmp file.
In ImageMagick 7.0.8-13 Q16, there is a heap-based buffer over-read in the EncodeImage function of coders/pict.c, which allows attackers to cause a denial of service via a crafted SVG image file.
The wp-slimstat (aka Slimstat Analytics) plugin before 4.1.6.1 for WordPress has XSS via an HTTP Referer header, or via a field associated with JavaScript-based Referer tracking.
arch/arm64/kvm/guest.c in KVM in the Linux kernel before 4.18.12 on the arm64 platform mishandles the KVM_SET_ON_REG ioctl. This is exploitable by attackers who can create virtual machines. An attacker can arbitrarily redirect the hypervisor flow of control (with full register control). An attacker can also cause a denial of service (hypervisor panic) via an illegal exception return. This occurs because of insufficient restrictions on userspace access to the core register file, and because PSTATE.M validation does not prevent unintended execution modes.
Git before 2.14.5, 2.15.x before 2.15.3, 2.16.x before 2.16.5, 2.17.x before 2.17.2, 2.18.x before 2.18.1, and 2.19.x before 2.19.1 allows remote code execution during processing of a recursive "git clone" of a superproject if a .gitmodules file has a URL field beginning with a '-' character.
In QPDF 8.2.1, in libqpdf/QPDFWriter.cc, QPDFWriter::unparseObject and QPDFWriter::unparseChild have recursive calls for a long time, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via a crafted PDF file.
Pivotal Container Service, versions prior to 1.2.0, contains an information disclosure vulnerability which exposes IaaS credentials to application logs. A malicious user with access to application logs may be able to obtain IaaS credentials and perform actions using these credentials.
Dell EMC Unity OE versions 4.3.0.x and 4.3.1.x and UnityVSA OE versions 4.3.0.x and 4.3.1.x contains an Incorrect File Permissions vulnerability. A locally authenticated malicious user could potentially exploit this vulnerability to alter multiple library files in service tools that might result in arbitrary code execution with elevated privileges. No user file systems are directly affected by this vulnerability.
Pivotal Operations Manager, versions 2.2.x prior to 2.2.1, 2.1.x prior to 2.1.11, 2.0.x prior to 2.0.16, and 1.11.x prior to 2, fails to write the Operations Manager UAA config onto the temp RAM disk, thus exposing the configs directly onto disk. A remote user that has gained access to the Operations Manager VM, can now file search and find the UAA credentials for Operations Manager on the system disk..
Cloud Foundry UAA, all versions prior to 4.20.0 and Cloud Foundry UAA Release, all versions prior to 61.0, allows brute forcing of MFA codes. A remote unauthenticated malicious user in possession of a valid username and password can brute force MFA to login as the targeted user.
