The vold volume manager daemon on Android 3.0 and 2.x before 2.3.4 trusts messages that are received from a PF_NETLINK socket, which allows local users to execute arbitrary code and gain root privileges via a negative index that bypasses a maximum-only signed integer check in the DirectVolume::handlePartitionAdded method, which triggers memory corruption, as demonstrated by Gingerbreak.

utils/opcontrol in OProfile 0.9.6 and earlier might allow local users to gain privileges via shell metacharacters in the (1) --vmlinux, (2) --session-dir, or (3) --xen argument, related to the daemonrc file and the do_save_setup and do_load_setup functions, a different vulnerability than CVE-2011-1760.

The Neighbor Discovery (ND) protocol implementation in Cisco IOS on unspecified switches allows remote attackers to bypass the Router Advertisement Guarding functionality via a fragmented IPv6 packet in which the Router Advertisement (RA) message is contained in the second fragment, as demonstrated by (1) a packet in which the first fragment contains a long Destination Options extension header or (2) a packet in which the first fragment contains an ICMPv6 Echo Request message.

reqresp_parser.c in the SIP channel driver in Asterisk Open Source 1.8.x before 1.8.4.2 does not initialize certain strings, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and daemon crash) via a malformed Contact header.

common.php in Post Revolution before 0.8.0c-2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop) via malformed HTML markup, as demonstrated by an a< sequence.

The mod_dav_svn module for the Apache HTTP Server, as distributed in Apache Subversion before 1.6.17, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and daemon crash) via a request for a baselined WebDAV resource, as exploited in the wild in May 2011.

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in Adobe Flash Player before 10.3.181.22 on Windows, Mac OS X, Linux, and Solaris, and 10.3.185.22 and earlier on Android, allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via unspecified vectors, related to a "universal cross-site scripting vulnerability." Per: http://www.adobe.com/support/security/bulletins/apsb11-13.html 'This issue also affects the authplay.dll component that ships with Adobe Reader and Acrobat X (10.0.3) and earlier 10.x and 9.x versions of Adobe Reader and Acrobat for Windows and Macintosh operating systems.' Per: http://www.adobe.com/support/security/bulletins/apsb11-13.html 'We expect to make available an update for Adobe Acrobat X (10.0.3) and earlier 10.x and 9.x versions for Windows and Macintosh, Adobe Reader X (10.0.1) for Windows, Adobe Reader X (10.0.3) for Macintosh, and Adobe Reader 9.4.3 and earlier 9.x versions for Windows and Macintosh with the next quarterly security update for Adobe Reader, currently scheduled for June 14, 2011.

Integer underflow in the visual_read function in wiretap/visual.c in Wireshark 1.2.x before 1.2.17 and 1.4.x before 1.4.7 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a malformed Visual Networks file that triggers a heap-based buffer over-read.

Double free vulnerability in the tvb_uncompress function in epan/tvbuff.c in Wireshark 1.2.x before 1.2.17 and 1.4.x before 1.4.7 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a packet with malformed data that uses zlib compression.

The snoop_read function in wiretap/snoop.c in Wireshark 1.2.x before 1.2.17 and 1.4.x before 1.4.7 does not properly handle certain virtualizable buffers, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a large length value in a snoop file that triggers a stack-based buffer over-read.

The bytes_repr_len function in Wireshark 1.4.5 uses an incorrect pointer argument, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and application crash) via arbitrary TCP traffic.

Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in common.php in Post Revolution before 0.8.0c-2 allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via an attribute of a (1) P, a (2) STRONG, a (3) A, a (4) EM, a (5) I, a (6) IMG, a (7) LI, an (8) OL, a (9) VIDEO, or a (10) BLOCKQUOTE element.

The mod_dav_svn module for the Apache HTTP Server, as distributed in Apache Subversion 1.5.x and 1.6.x before 1.6.17, when the SVNPathAuthz short_circuit option is disabled, does not properly enforce permissions for files that had been publicly readable in the past, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information via a replay REPORT operation.

The mod_dav_svn module for the Apache HTTP Server, as distributed in Apache Subversion 1.5.x and 1.6.x before 1.6.17, when the SVNPathAuthz short_circuit option is enabled, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop and memory consumption) in opportunistic circumstances by requesting data.

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the management GUI in the MX Management Server in Imperva SecureSphere Web Application Firewall 6.2, 7.x, and 8.x allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via an HTTP request to a firewalled server, aka Bug ID 31759.

The X.509 certificate validation functionality in Mozilla Firefox 4.0.x through 4.0.1 does not properly implement single-session security exceptions, which might make it easier for user-assisted remote attackers to spoof an SSL server via an untrusted certificate that triggers potentially unwanted local caching of documents from that server.

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the safe_html filter in Products.PortalTransforms in Plone 2.1 through 4.1 allows remote authenticated users to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via unspecified vectors, a different vulnerability than CVE-2010-2422.
