| DATE | CVE | VULNERABILITY TITLE | RISK |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2008-11-13 | CVE-2008-4989 | Improper Certificate Validation vulnerability in multiple products The _gnutls_x509_verify_certificate function in lib/x509/verify.c in libgnutls in GnuTLS before 2.6.1 trusts certificate chains in which the last certificate is an arbitrary trusted, self-signed certificate, which allows man-in-the-middle attackers to insert a spoofed certificate for any Distinguished Name (DN). | 5.9 |
| 2008-10-15 | CVE-2008-4577 | Incorrect Authorization vulnerability in multiple products The ACL plugin in Dovecot before 1.1.4 treats negative access rights as if they are positive access rights, which allows attackers to bypass intended access restrictions. | 7.5 |
| 2008-09-04 | CVE-2007-6716 | fs/direct-io.c in the dio subsystem in the Linux kernel before 2.6.23 does not properly zero out the dio struct, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (OOPS), as demonstrated by a certain fio test. | 5.5 |
| 2008-08-27 | CVE-2008-3281 | XML Entity Expansion vulnerability in multiple products libxml2 2.6.32 and earlier does not properly detect recursion during entity expansion in an attribute value, which allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (memory and CPU consumption) via a crafted XML document. | 6.5 |
| 2008-08-12 | CVE-2008-3275 | Classic Buffer Overflow vulnerability in multiple products The (1) real_lookup and (2) __lookup_hash functions in fs/namei.c in the vfs implementation in the Linux kernel before 2.6.25.15 do not prevent creation of a child dentry for a deleted (aka S_DEAD) directory, which allows local users to cause a denial of service ("overflow" of the UBIFS orphan area) via a series of attempted file creations within deleted directories. | 5.5 |
| 2008-07-18 | CVE-2008-2934 | Use of Uninitialized Resource vulnerability in multiple products Mozilla Firefox 3 before 3.0.1 on Mac OS X allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted GIF file that triggers a free of an uninitialized pointer. | 8.8 |
| 2008-07-09 | CVE-2008-2931 | Improper Privilege Management vulnerability in multiple products The do_change_type function in fs/namespace.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.22 does not verify that the caller has the CAP_SYS_ADMIN capability, which allows local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service by modifying the properties of a mountpoint. | 7.8 |
| 2008-07-09 | CVE-2008-2812 | NULL Pointer Dereference vulnerability in multiple products The Linux kernel before 2.6.25.10 does not properly perform tty operations, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly gain privileges via vectors involving NULL pointer dereference of function pointers in (1) hamradio/6pack.c, (2) hamradio/mkiss.c, (3) irda/irtty-sir.c, (4) ppp_async.c, (5) ppp_synctty.c, (6) slip.c, (7) wan/x25_asy.c, and (8) wireless/strip.c in drivers/net/. | 7.8 |
| 2008-05-13 | CVE-2008-0166 | Use of Cryptographically Weak Pseudo-Random Number Generator (PRNG) vulnerability in multiple products OpenSSL 0.9.8c-1 up to versions before 0.9.8g-9 on Debian-based operating systems uses a random number generator that generates predictable numbers, which makes it easier for remote attackers to conduct brute force guessing attacks against cryptographic keys. | 7.5 |
| 2008-05-07 | CVE-2008-2108 | Insufficient Entropy vulnerability in multiple products The GENERATE_SEED macro in PHP 4.x before 4.4.8 and 5.x before 5.2.5, when running on 64-bit systems, performs a multiplication that generates a portion of zero bits during conversion due to insufficient precision, which produces 24 bits of entropy and simplifies brute force attacks against protection mechanisms that use the rand and mt_rand functions. | 9.8 |
