Security Vulnerabilities

In BlackBerry QNX Software Development Platform (SDP) 6.6.0, an elevation of privilege vulnerability in the default configuration of the QNX SDP with QNet enabled on networks comprising two or more QNet nodes could allow an attacker to access local and remote files or take ownership of files on other QNX nodes regardless of permissions by executing commands targeting arbitrary nodes from a secondary QNX 6.6.0 QNet node.
In BlackBerry QNX Software Development Platform (SDP) 6.6.0, an information disclosure vulnerability in the default configuration of the QNX SDP could allow an attacker to gain information relating to memory layout that could be used in a blended attack by executing commands targeting procfs resources.
In BlackBerry QNX Software Development Platform (SDP) 6.6.0, the default configuration of the QNX SDP system did not in all circumstances prevent attackers from modifying the GOT or PLT tables with buffer overflow attacks.
In BlackBerry QNX Software Development Platform (SDP) 6.6.0 and 6.5.0 SP1 and earlier, an information disclosure vulnerability in the default configuration of the QNX SDP could allow an attacker to gain information relating to memory layout of higher privileged processes by manipulating environment variables that influence the loader.
Due to differences in the Erlang-based JSON parser and JavaScript-based JSON parser, it is possible in Apache CouchDB before 1.7.0 and 2.x before 2.1.1 to submit _users documents with duplicate keys for 'roles' used for access control within the database, including the special case '_admin' role, that denotes administrative users. In combination with CVE-2017-12636 (Remote Code Execution), this can be used to give non-admin users access to arbitrary shell commands on the server as the database system user. The JSON parser differences result in behaviour that if two 'roles' keys are available in the JSON, the second one will be used for authorising the document write, but the first 'roles' key is used for subsequent authorization for the newly created user. By design, users can not assign themselves roles. The vulnerability allows non-admin users to give themselves admin privileges.
CouchDB administrative users can configure the database server via HTTP(S). Some of the configuration options include paths for operating system-level binaries that are subsequently launched by CouchDB. This allows an admin user in Apache CouchDB before 1.7.0 and 2.x before 2.1.1 to execute arbitrary shell commands as the CouchDB user, including downloading and executing scripts from the public internet.
installer.php in the Snap Creek Duplicator (WordPress Site Migration & Backup) plugin before 1.2.30 for WordPress has XSS because the values "url_new" (/wp-content/plugins/duplicator/installer/build/view.step4.php) and "logging" (wp-content/plugins/duplicator/installer/build/view.step2.php) are not filtered correctly.
In OpenStack Nova through 14.0.9, 15.x through 15.0.7, and 16.x through 16.0.2, by rebuilding an instance, an authenticated user may be able to circumvent the Filter Scheduler bypassing imposed filters (for example, the ImagePropertiesFilter or the IsolatedHostsFilter). All setups using Nova Filter Scheduler are affected. Because of the regression described in Launchpad Bug #1732947, the preferred fix is a 14.x version after 14.0.10, a 15.x version after 15.0.8, or a 16.x version after 16.0.3.
An elevation of privilege vulnerability exists in the NVIDIA GPU driver (gm20b_clk_throt_set_cdev_state), where an out of bound memory read is used as a function pointer could lead to code execution in the kernel.This issue is rated as high because it could allow a local malicious application to execute arbitrary code within the context of a privileged process. Product: Android. Version: N/A. Android ID: A-34705430. References: N-CVE-2017-6264.
Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in Kodak InSite 6.5 to 8.0 allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script via the (1) "paramFile" parameter to /Site/Troubleshooting/DiagnosticReport.asp, or (2) "paramFile" parameter to /Site/Troubleshooting/SpeedTest.asp.
