DATE CVE VULNERABILITY TITLE RISK
2013-10-09 CVE-2012-4412 Numeric Errors vulnerability in GNU Glibc
Integer overflow in string/strcoll_l.c in the GNU C Library (aka glibc or libc6) 2.17 and earlier allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a long string, which triggers a heap-based buffer overflow.

7.5
2013-10-04 CVE-2013-4788 Improper Input Validation vulnerability in GNU Eglibc and Glibc
The PTR_MANGLE implementation in the GNU C Library (aka glibc or libc6) 2.4, 2.17, and earlier, and Embedded GLIBC (EGLIBC) does not initialize the random value for the pointer guard, which makes it easier for context-dependent attackers to control execution flow by leveraging a buffer-overflow vulnerability in an application and using the known zero value pointer guard to calculate a pointer address.

high complexity
gnu CWE-20
5.1
2013-05-02 CVE-2011-4609 Resource Management Errors vulnerability in GNU Glibc
The svc_run function in the RPC implementation in glibc before 2.15 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) via a large number of RPC connections.

gnu CWE-399
5.0
2013-02-08 CVE-2013-0242 Buffer Errors vulnerability in GNU Glibc 2.17
Buffer overflow in the extend_buffers function in the regular expression matcher (posix/regexec.c) in glibc, possibly 2.17 and earlier, allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and crash) via crafted multibyte characters.

5.0
2013-02-08 CVE-2013-1619 Cryptographic Issues vulnerability in GNU Gnutls
The TLS implementation in GnuTLS before 2.12.23, 3.0.x before 3.0.28, and 3.1.x before 3.1.7 does not properly consider timing side-channel attacks on a noncompliant MAC check operation during the processing of malformed CBC padding, which allows remote attackers to conduct distinguishing attacks and plaintext-recovery attacks via statistical analysis of timing data for crafted packets, a related issue to CVE-2013-0169.

4.0
2012-09-25 CVE-2012-1103 Improper Input Validation vulnerability in Notmuchmail Notmuch
emacs/notmuch-mua.el in Notmuch before 0.11.1, when using the Emacs interface, allows user-assisted remote attackers to read arbitrary files via crafted MML tags, which are not properly quoted in an email reply cna cause the files to be attached to the message.
4.3
2012-09-05 CVE-2012-3509 Numeric Errors vulnerability in multiple products
Multiple integer overflows in the (1) _objalloc_alloc function in objalloc.c and (2) objalloc_alloc macro in include/objalloc.h in GNU libiberty, as used by binutils 2.22, allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via vectors related to the "addition of CHUNK_HEADER_SIZE to the length," which triggers a heap-based buffer overflow.

5.0
2012-08-27 CVE-2012-3410 Buffer Errors vulnerability in GNU Bash 4.2
Stack-based buffer overflow in lib/sh/eaccess.c in GNU Bash before 4.2 patch 33 might allow local users to bypass intended restricted shell access via a long filename in /dev/fd, which is not properly handled when expanding the /dev/fd prefix.

4.6
2012-08-26 CVE-2012-1175 Numeric Errors vulnerability in GNU Gnash 0.8.10
Integer overflow in the GnashImage::size method in libbase/GnashImage.h in GNU Gnash 0.8.10 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted SWF file, which triggers a heap-based buffer overflow.

6.8
2012-08-25 CVE-2012-3479 Remote Code Execution vulnerability in GNU Emacs 'enable-local-variables'
lisp/files.el in Emacs 23.2, 23.3, 23.4, and 24.1 automatically executes eval forms in local-variable sections when the enable-local-variables option is set to :safe, which allows user-assisted remote attackers to execute arbitrary Emacs Lisp code via a crafted file.
