2016-05-01 CVE-2015-8325 Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls vulnerability in multiple products
The do_setup_env function in session.c in sshd in OpenSSH through 7.2p2, when the UseLogin feature is enabled and PAM is configured to read .pam_environment files in user home directories, allows local users to gain privileges by triggering a crafted environment for the /bin/login program, as demonstrated by an LD_PRELOAD environment variable.

2016-04-27 CVE-2016-3672 7PK - Security Features vulnerability in multiple products
The arch_pick_mmap_layout function in arch/x86/mm/mmap.c in the Linux kernel through 4.5.2 does not properly randomize the legacy base address, which makes it easier for local users to defeat the intended restrictions on the ADDR_NO_RANDOMIZE flag, and bypass the ASLR protection mechanism for a setuid or setgid program, by disabling stack-consumption resource limits.

2016-04-27 CVE-2016-3135 Integer overflow in the xt_alloc_table_info function in net/netfilter/x_tables.c in the Linux kernel through 4.5.2 on 32-bit platforms allows local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service (heap memory corruption) via an IPT_SO_SET_REPLACE setsockopt call.

2016-04-26 CVE-2016-3074 Incorrect Conversion between Numeric Types vulnerability in multiple products
Integer signedness error in GD Graphics Library 2.1.1 (aka libgd or libgd2) allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) or potentially execute arbitrary code via crafted compressed gd2 data, which triggers a heap-based buffer overflow.
7.5
2016-04-19 CVE-2015-8779 Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer vulnerability in multiple products
Stack-based buffer overflow in the catopen function 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 a long catalog name.
7.5
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.
7.5
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.
