Security Vulnerabilities
- CVEs Published In 2017
By exploiting the way Apache OpenOffice before 4.1.4 renders embedded objects, an attacker could craft a document that allows reading in a file from the user's filesystem. Information could be retrieved by the attacker by, e.g., using hidden sections to store the information, tricking the user into saving the document and convincing the user to send the document back to the attacker. The vulnerability is mitigated by the need for the attacker to know the precise file path in the target system, and the need to trick the user into saving the document and sending it back.
A vulnerability in OpenOffice's PPT file parser before 4.1.4, and specifically in PPTStyleSheet, allows attackers to craft malicious documents that cause denial of service (memory corruption and application crash) potentially resulting in arbitrary code execution.
Prior to ITMS 8.1 RU4, the Symantec Management Console can be susceptible to a directory traversal exploit, which is a type of attack that can occur when there is insufficient security validation / sanitization of user-supplied input file names, such that characters representing "traverse to parent directory" are passed through to the file APIs.
LvyeCMS through 3.1 allows remote attackers to upload and execute arbitrary PHP code via directory traversal sequences in the dir parameter, in conjunction with PHP code in the content parameter, within a template Style add request to index.php.
The Public tologin feature in admin.php in LvyeCMS through 3.1 allows XSS via a crafted username that is mishandled during later log viewing by an administrator.
An array index error in the fig2dev program in Xfig 3.2.6a allows remote attackers to cause a denial-of-service attack or information disclosure with a maliciously crafted Fig format file, related to a negative font value in dev/gentikz.c, and the read_textobject functions in read.c and read1_3.c.
On the Vonage VDV-23 115 3.2.11-0.9.40 home router, sending a long string of characters in the loginPassword and/or loginUsername field to goform/login causes the router to reboot.
The printMP3Headers function in util/listmp3.c in libming v0.4.8 or earlier is vulnerable to a global buffer overflow, which may allow attackers to cause a denial of service via a crafted file, a different vulnerability than CVE-2016-9264.
A vulnerability in the OpenOffice Writer DOC file parser before 4.1.4, and specifically in the WW8Fonts Constructor, allows attackers to craft malicious documents that cause denial of service (memory corruption and application crash) potentially resulting in arbitrary code execution.
A SQL injection in classes/handler/public.php in the forgotpass component of Tiny Tiny RSS 17.4 exists via the login parameter.
