| CVE | Severity | CVSS | Published | Summary |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| CVE-2019-11235 | CRITICAL | 9.8 | Apr 22, 2019 | FreeRADIUS before 3.0.19 mishandles the "each participant verifies that the received scalar is within a range, and that the received group element is a valid point on the curve being used" protection mechanism, aka a "Dragonblood" issue, a similar issue to CVE-2019-9498 and CVE-2019-9499. |
| CVE-2019-11234 | CRITICAL | 9.8 | Apr 22, 2019 | FreeRADIUS before 3.0.19 does not prevent use of reflection for authentication spoofing, aka a "Dragonblood" issue, a similar issue to CVE-2019-9497. |
| CVE-2008-2374 | CRITICAL | 9.8 | Jul 7, 2008 | src/sdp.c in bluez-libs 3.30 in BlueZ, and other bluez-libs before 3.34 and bluez-utils before 3.34 versions, does not validate string length fields in SDP packets, which allows remote SDP servers to cause a denial of service or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted length field that triggers excessive memory allocation or a buffer over-read. |
| CVE-2008-2108 | CRITICAL | 9.8 | May 7, 2008 | The GENERATE_SEED macro in PHP 4.x before 4.4.8 and 5.x before 5.2.5, when running on 64-bit systems, performs a multiplication that generates a portion of zero bits during conversion due to insufficient precision, which produces 24 bits of entropy and simplifies brute force attacks against protection mechanisms that use the rand and mt_rand functions. |
| CVE-2008-0599 | CRITICAL | 9.8 | May 5, 2008 | The init_request_info function in sapi/cgi/cgi_main.c in PHP before 5.2.6 does not properly consider operator precedence when calculating the length of PATH_TRANSLATED, which might allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted URI. |
| CVE-2009-0846 | HIGH | 10.0 | Apr 9, 2009 | The asn1_decode_generaltime function in lib/krb5/asn.1/asn1_decode.c in the ASN.1 GeneralizedTime decoder in MIT Kerberos 5 (aka krb5) before 1.6.4 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (daemon crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via vectors involving an invalid DER encoding that triggers a free of an uninitialized pointer. |
| CVE-2009-0385 | HIGH | 9.3 | Feb 2, 2009 | Integer signedness error in the fourxm_read_header function in libavformat/4xm.c in FFmpeg before revision 16846 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a malformed 4X movie file with a large current_track value, which triggers a NULL pointer dereference. |
| CVE-2008-5021 | HIGH | 9.3 | Nov 13, 2008 | nsFrameManager in Firefox 3.x before 3.0.4, Firefox 2.x before 2.0.0.18, Thunderbird 2.x before 2.0.0.18, and SeaMonkey 1.x before 1.1.13 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code by modifying properties of a file input element while it is still being initialized, then using the blur method to access uninitialized memory. |
| CVE-2019-10132 | HIGH | 8.8 | May 22, 2019 | A vulnerability was found in libvirt >= 4.1.0 in the virtlockd-admin.socket and virtlogd-admin.socket systemd units. A missing SocketMode configuration parameter allows any user on the host to connect using virtlockd-admin-sock or virtlogd-admin-sock and perform administrative tasks against the virtlockd and virtlogd daemons. |
| CVE-2010-4661 | HIGH | 7.8 | Nov 13, 2019 | udisks before 1.0.3 allows a local user to load arbitrary Linux kernel modules. |
| CVE-2018-5345 | HIGH | 7.8 | Jan 12, 2018 | A stack-based buffer overflow within GNOME gcab through 0.7.4 can be exploited by malicious attackers to cause a crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code via a crafted .cab file. |
| CVE-2009-0115 | HIGH | 7.8 | Mar 30, 2009 | The Device Mapper multipathing driver (aka multipath-tools or device-mapper-multipath) 0.4.8, as used in SUSE openSUSE, SUSE Linux Enterprise Server (SLES), Fedora, and possibly other operating systems, uses world-writable permissions for the socket file (aka /var/run/multipathd.sock), which allows local users to send arbitrary commands to the multipath daemon. |
| CVE-2008-3282 | HIGH | 7.8 | Aug 29, 2008 | Integer overflow in the rtl_allocateMemory function in sal/rtl/source/alloc_global.c in the memory allocator in OpenOffice.org (OOo) 2.4.1, on 64-bit platforms, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted document, related to a "numeric truncation error," a different vulnerability than CVE-2008-2152. |
| CVE-2019-3804 | HIGH | 7.5 | Mar 26, 2019 | It was found that cockpit before version 184 used glib's base64 decode functionality incorrectly resulting in a denial of service attack. An unauthenticated attacker could send a specially crafted request with an invalid base64-encoded cookie which could cause the web service to crash. |
| CVE-2009-1837 | HIGH | 7.5 | Jun 12, 2009 | Race condition in the NPObjWrapper_NewResolve function in modules/plugin/base/src/nsJSNPRuntime.cpp in xul.dll in Mozilla Firefox 3 before 3.0.11 might allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a page transition during Java applet loading, related to a use-after-free vulnerability for memory associated with a destroyed Java object. |
| CVE-2009-1955 | HIGH | 7.5 | Jun 8, 2009 | The expat XML parser in the apr_xml_* interface in xml/apr_xml.c in Apache APR-util before 1.3.7, as used in the mod_dav and mod_dav_svn modules in the Apache HTTP Server, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via a crafted XML document containing a large number of nested entity references, as demonstrated by a PROPFIND request, a similar issue to CVE-2003-1564. |
| CVE-2009-1603 | HIGH | 7.5 | May 11, 2009 | src/tools/pkcs11-tool.c in pkcs11-tool in OpenSC 0.11.7, when used with unspecified third-party PKCS#11 modules, generates RSA keys with incorrect public exponents, which allows attackers to read the cleartext form of messages that were intended to be encrypted. |
| CVE-2008-4577 | HIGH | 7.5 | Oct 15, 2008 | The ACL plugin in Dovecot before 1.1.4 treats negative access rights as if they are positive access rights, which allows attackers to bypass intended access restrictions. |
| CVE-2008-3424 | HIGH | 7.5 | Jul 31, 2008 | Condor before 7.0.4 does not properly handle wildcards in the ALLOW_WRITE, DENY_WRITE, HOSTALLOW_WRITE, or HOSTDENY_WRITE configuration variables in authorization policy lists, which might allow remote attackers to bypass intended access restrictions. |
| CVE-2008-3223 | HIGH | 7.5 | Jul 18, 2008 | SQL injection vulnerability in the Schema API in Drupal 6.x before 6.3 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary SQL commands via vectors related to "an inappropriate placeholder for 'numeric' fields." |
