DATE CVE VULNERABILITY TITLE RISK
2013-09-10 CVE-2013-4169 Link Following vulnerability in Gnome Display Manager

gnome CWE-59

2013-04-02 CVE-2013-0240 Cryptographic Issues vulnerability in multiple products
Gnome Online Accounts (GOA) 3.4.x, 3.6.x before 3.6.3, and 3.7.x before 3.7.5, does not properly validate SSL certificates when creating accounts such as Windows Live and Facebook accounts, which allows man-in-the-middle attackers to obtain sensitive information such as credentials by sniffing the network.
4.3
2013-03-08 CVE-2013-1050 Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls vulnerability in Gnome Screensaver 3.5.4/3.5.5/3.6.0
The default configuration in gnome-screensaver 3.5.4 through 3.6.0 sets the AutostartCondition line to fallback mode in the .desktop file, which prevents the program from starting automatically after login and allows physically proximate attackers to bypass screen locking and access an unattended workstation.

2012-12-21 CVE-2010-2387 Credentials Management vulnerability in Gnome Display Manager
vicious-extensions/ve-misc.c in GNOME Display Manager (gdm) 2.20.x before 2.20.11, when GDM debug is enabled, logs the user password when it contains invalid UTF8 encoded characters, which might allow local users to gain privileges by reading the information from syslog logs.

gnome CWE-255
1.9
2012-11-19 CVE-2011-5244 Numeric Errors vulnerability in multiple products
Multiple off-by-one errors in the (1) token and (2) linetoken functions in backend/dvi/mdvi-lib/afmparse.c in t1lib, as used in teTeX 3.0.x, GNOME evince, and possibly other products, allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a DVI file containing a crafted Adobe Font Metrics (AFM) file, different vulnerabilities than CVE-2010-2642 and CVE-2011-0433.
6.8
2012-11-19 CVE-2011-0433 Improper Restriction of Operations Within the Bounds of A Memory Buffer vulnerability in multiple products
Heap-based buffer overflow in the linetoken function in afmparse.c in t1lib, as used in teTeX 3.0.x, GNOME evince, and possibly other products, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a DVI file containing a crafted Adobe Font Metrics (AFM) file, a different vulnerability than CVE-2010-2642.
6.8
2012-10-22 CVE-2012-4511 Information Exposure vulnerability in Gnome Libsocialweb
services/flickr/flickr.c in libsocialweb before 0.25.21 automatically connects to Flickr when no Flickr account is set, which might allow remote attackers to obtain sensitive information via a man-in-the-middle (MITM) attack.

gnome CWE-200
5.8
2012-10-22 CVE-2012-3466 Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls vulnerability in Gnome Gnome-Keyring 3.4.0/3.4.1
GNOME gnome-keyring 3.4.0 through 3.4.1, when gpg-cache-method is set to "idle" or "timeout," does not properly limit the amount of time a passphrase is cached, which allows attackers to have an unspecified impact via unknown attack vectors.

gnome CWE-264
4.4
2012-10-22 CVE-2011-4129 Information Exposure vulnerability in Gnome Libsocialweb
(1) services/twitter/twitter-contact-view.c and (2) services/twitter/twitter-item-view.c in libsocialweb before 0.25.20 automatically connect to Twitter when no Twitter account is set, which might allow remote attackers to obtain sensitive information via a man-in-the-middle (MITM) attack.
