DATE CVE VULNERABILITY TITLE RISK
2014-12-15 CVE-2014-6052 Improper Input Validation vulnerability in multiple products
The HandleRFBServerMessage function in libvncclient/rfbproto.c in LibVNCServer 0.9.9 and earlier does not check certain malloc return values, which allows remote VNC servers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code by specifying a large screen size in a (1) FramebufferUpdate, (2) ResizeFrameBuffer, or (3) PalmVNCReSizeFrameBuffer message.

2014-11-26 CVE-2014-9093 Improper Input Validation vulnerability in multiple products
LibreOffice before 4.3.5 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (invalid write operation and crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted RTF file.

2014-11-25 CVE-2014-1421 Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls vulnerability in Canonical Ubuntu Linux 14.10
mountall 1.54, as used in Ubuntu 14.10, does not properly handle the umask when using the mount utility, which allows local users to bypass intended access restrictions via unspecified vectors.

2014-11-10 CVE-2014-3687 Resource Exhaustion vulnerability in multiple products
The sctp_assoc_lookup_asconf_ack function in net/sctp/associola.c in the SCTP implementation in the Linux kernel through 3.17.2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (panic) via duplicate ASCONF chunks that trigger an incorrect uncork within the side-effect interpreter.
7.5
2014-11-10 CVE-2014-3673 Improper Input Validation vulnerability in multiple products
The SCTP implementation in the Linux kernel through 3.17.2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (system crash) via a malformed ASCONF chunk, related to net/sctp/sm_make_chunk.c and net/sctp/sm_statefuns.c.
7.5
2014-08-07 CVE-2014-5195 Race Condition vulnerability in Ayatana Project Unity
Unity before 7.2.3 and 7.3.x before 7.3.1, as used in Ubuntu, does not properly take focus of the keyboard when switching to the lock screen, which allows physically proximate attackers to bypass the lock screen by (1) leveraging a machine that had text selected when locking or (2) resuming from a suspension.

2014-06-07 CVE-2014-3153 The futex_requeue function in kernel/futex.c in the Linux kernel through 3.14.5 does not ensure that calls have two different futex addresses, which allows local users to gain privileges via a crafted FUTEX_REQUEUE command that facilitates unsafe waiter modification.
