DATE CVE VULNERABILITY TITLE RISK
2016-04-19 CVE-2015-8778 Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer vulnerability in multiple products
Integer overflow in the GNU C Library (aka glibc or libc6) before 2.23 allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via the size argument to the __hcreate_r function, which triggers out-of-bounds heap-memory access.

2016-04-19 CVE-2014-9761 Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer vulnerability in multiple products
Multiple stack-based buffer overflows in the GNU C Library (aka glibc or libc6) before 2.23 allow context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a long argument to the (1) nan, (2) nanf, or (3) nanl function.

2016-04-18 CVE-2016-1655 Google Chrome before 50.0.2661.75 does not properly consider that frame removal may occur during callback execution, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (use-after-free) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted extension.

2016-04-18 CVE-2016-1653 Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer vulnerability in multiple products
The LoadBuffer implementation in Google V8, as used in Google Chrome before 50.0.2661.75, mishandles data types, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service or possibly have unspecified other impact via crafted JavaScript code that triggers an out-of-bounds write operation, related to compiler/pipeline.cc and compiler/simplified-lowering.cc.

2016-04-14 CVE-2015-8560 Arbitrary Command Execution vulnerability in cups-filters
Incomplete blacklist vulnerability in util.c in foomatic-rip in cups-filters 1.0.42 before 1.4.0 and in foomatic-filters in Foomatic 4.0.x allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via a ; (semicolon) character in a print job, a different vulnerability than CVE-2015-8327.

2016-04-13 CVE-2015-7545 Improper Input Validation vulnerability in multiple products
The (1) git-remote-ext and (2) unspecified other remote helper programs in Git before 2.3.10, 2.4.x before 2.4.10, 2.5.x before 2.5.4, and 2.6.x before 2.6.1 do not properly restrict the allowed protocols, which might allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a URL in a (a) .gitmodules file or (b) unknown other sources in a submodule.

2016-04-13 CVE-2014-9766 Numeric Errors vulnerability in multiple products
Integer overflow in the create_bits function in pixman-bits-image.c in Pixman before 0.32.6 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via large height and stride values.

2016-04-12 CVE-2016-3157 Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls vulnerability in multiple products
The __switch_to function in arch/x86/kernel/process_64.c in the Linux kernel does not properly context-switch IOPL on 64-bit PV Xen guests, which allows local guest OS users to gain privileges, cause a denial of service (guest OS crash), or obtain sensitive information by leveraging I/O port access.

2016-04-12 CVE-2016-2857 Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer vulnerability in multiple products
The net_checksum_calculate function in net/checksum.c in QEMU allows local guest OS users to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds heap read and crash) via the payload length in a crafted packet.

2016-04-07 CVE-2016-3947 Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer vulnerability in multiple products
Heap-based buffer overflow in the Icmp6::Recv function in icmp/Icmp6.cc in the pinger utility in Squid before 3.5.16 and 4.x before 4.0.8 allows remote servers to cause a denial of service (performance degradation or transition failures) or write sensitive information to log files via an ICMPv6 packet.
