NASL id ORACLE_SECURE_GLOBAL_DESKTOP_APR_2017_CPU.NASL description The version of Oracle Secure Global Desktop installed on the remote host is 4.71, 5.2, or 5.3 and is missing a security patch from the April 2017 Critical Patch Update (CPU). It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities : - An integer overflow condition exists in the Window System (X11) subcomponent in multiple functions in X.Org libExt due to improper validation of user-supplied input when calculating the amount of memory required to handle return data. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to cause a denial of service condition or the execution of arbitrary code. Note that this issue only affects version 4.71. (CVE-2013-1982) - An integer overflow condition exists in X.Org libXfixes in the XFixesGetCursorImage() function when handling large cursor dimensions or name lengths due to improper validation of user-supplied input. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to cause a denial of service condition or the execution of arbitrary code. (CVE-2013-1983) - An integer overflow condition exists within multiple functions in X.Org libXi due to improper validation of user-supplied input when calculating the amount of memory needed to handle return data. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to cause a denial of service condition or the execution of arbitrary code. (CVE-2013-1984) - An integer overflow condition exists in X.Org libXinerama in the XineramaQueryScreens() function due to improper validation of user-supplied input when calculating the amount of memory needed to handle return data. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to cause a denial of service condition or the execution of arbitrary code. (CVE-2013-1985) - An integer overflow condition exists in multiple functions in X.Org libXrandr due to improper validation of user-supplied input when calculating the amount of memory needed to handle return data. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to cause a denial of service condition or the execution of arbitrary code. (CVE-2013-1986) - An integer overflow condition exists in multiple functions in X.Org libXrender due to improper validation of user-supplied input when calculating the amount of memory needed to handle return data. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to cause a denial of service condition or the execution of arbitrary code. (CVE-2013-1987) - An overflow condition exists in X.Org libXi in the XListInputDevices() function, related to an unexpected sign extension, due to improper checking of the amount of memory needed to handle returned data when converting smaller integer types to larger ones. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to cause a denial of service condition or the execution of arbitrary code. (CVE-2013-1995) - An overflow condition exists within multiple functions in X.Org LibXi due to improper validation of user-supplied input. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, via a specially crafted length or index, to cause a denial of service condition or the execution of arbitrary code. (CVE-2013-1998) - An overflow condition exists in X.Org LibXt in the _XtResourceConfigurationEH() function due to improper validation of user-supplied input. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, via a specially crafted length or index, to cause a denial of service condition or the execution of arbitrary code. (CVE-2013-2002) - An integer overflow condition exists in X.Org libXcursor in the _XcursorFileHeaderCreate() function due to improper validation of user-supplied input. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, via a specially crafted file, to cause a denial of service condition or the execution of arbitrary code. (CVE-2013-2003) - An uninitialized pointer flaw exists within multiple functions in X.Org LibXt due to a failure to check for proper initialization of pointers. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to corrupt memory, resulting in a denial of service condition or the possible execution of arbitrary code. (CVE-2013-2005) - A flaw exists in the Application Server subcomponent (Apache Tomcat) due to a failure to process passwords when they are paired with non-existent usernames. An authenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, via a timing attack, to enumerate user account names. (CVE-2016-0762) - Multiple integer overflow conditions exist in s3_srvr.c, ssl_sess.c, and t1_lib.c due to improper use of pointer arithmetic for heap-buffer boundary checks. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit these to cause a denial of service. (CVE-2016-2177) - An information disclosure vulnerability exists in the dsa_sign_setup() function in dsa_ossl.c due to a failure to properly ensure the use of constant-time operations. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, via a timing side-channel attack, to disclose DSA key information. (CVE-2016-2178) - A denial of service vulnerability exists in the DTLS implementation due to a failure to properly restrict the lifetime of queue entries associated with unused out-of-order messages. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, by maintaining multiple crafted DTLS sessions simultaneously, to exhaust memory. (CVE-2016-2179) - An out-of-bounds read error exists in the X.509 Public Key Infrastructure Time-Stamp Protocol (TSP) implementation. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, via a crafted time-stamp file that is mishandled by the last seen 2020-06-01 modified 2020-06-02 plugin id 99930 published 2017-05-02 reporter This script is Copyright (C) 2017-2019 and is owned by Tenable, Inc. or an Affiliate thereof. source https://www.tenable.com/plugins/nessus/99930 title Oracle Secure Global Desktop Multiple Vulnerabilities (April 2017 CPU) (SWEET32) NASL family FreeBSD Local Security Checks NASL id FREEBSD_PKG_2EEBEBFFCD3B11E28F09001B38C3836C.NASL description freedesktop.org reports : Ilja van Sprundel, a security researcher with IOActive, has discovered a large number of issues in the way various X client libraries handle the responses they receive from servers, and has worked with X.Org last seen 2020-06-01 modified 2020-06-02 plugin id 66798 published 2013-06-05 reporter This script is Copyright (C) 2013-2019 and is owned by Tenable, Inc. or an Affiliate thereof. source https://www.tenable.com/plugins/nessus/66798 title FreeBSD : xorg -- protocol handling issues in X Window System client libraries (2eebebff-cd3b-11e2-8f09-001b38c3836c) NASL family Solaris Local Security Checks NASL id SOLARIS11_XORG_20130924.NASL description The remote Solaris system is missing necessary patches to address security updates : - Integer overflow in X.org libXfixes 5.0 and earlier allows X servers to trigger allocation of insufficient memory and a buffer overflow via vectors related to the XFixesGetCursorImage function.
