Use-after-free vulnerability in Adobe Reader and Acrobat before 11.0.18, Acrobat and Acrobat Reader DC Classic before 15.006.30243, and Acrobat and Acrobat Reader DC Continuous before 15.020.20039 on Windows and OS X allows attackers to execute arbitrary code via unspecified vectors, a different vulnerability than CVE-2016-1091, CVE-2016-6944, CVE-2016-6945, CVE-2016-6946, CVE-2016-6949, CVE-2016-6952, CVE-2016-6953, CVE-2016-6961, CVE-2016-6962, CVE-2016-6963, CVE-2016-6964, CVE-2016-6965, CVE-2016-6967, CVE-2016-6968, CVE-2016-6969, CVE-2016-6971, CVE-2016-6979, CVE-2016-6988, and CVE-2016-6993.
The manager_dispatch_notify_fd function in systemd allows local users to cause a denial of service (system hang) via a zero-length message received over a notify socket, which causes an error to be returned and the notification handler to be disabled.
The manager_invoke_notify_message function in systemd 231 and earlier allows local users to cause a denial of service (assertion failure and PID 1 hang) via a zero-length message received over a notify socket.
SAP Netweaver 7.40 improperly logs (1) DUI and (2) DUJ events in the SAP Security Audit Log as non-critical, which might allow local users to hide rejected attempts to execute RFC function callbacks by leveraging filtering of non-critical events in audit analysis reports, aka SAP Security Note 2252312.
The JMX servlet in Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform (EAP) 4 and 5 allows remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted serialized Java object.
The Tomcat package on Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 5 through 7, JBoss Web Server 3.0, and JBoss EWS 2 uses weak permissions for (1) /etc/sysconfig/tomcat and (2) /etc/tomcat/tomcat.conf, which allows local users to gain privileges by leveraging membership in the tomcat group.
The Tomcat package on Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 7, Fedora, CentOS, Oracle Linux, and possibly other Linux distributions uses weak permissions for /usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/tomcat.conf, which allows local users to gain root privileges by leveraging membership in the tomcat group.
The DSA algorithm implementation in SAP SAPCRYPTOLIB 5.555.38 does not properly check signatures, which allows remote authenticated users to impersonate arbitrary users via unspecified vectors, aka SAP Security Note 2223008.
SAP Console (aka SAPConsole) 7.30 allows local users to discover SAP Server login credentials by reading the Windows registry, aka SAP Security Note 2121461.
SAP SLD Registration Program (aka SLDREG) allows local users to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and process termination) via a crafted HOST parameter, aka SAP Security Note 2125623.
