The xmlParseMisc function in parser.c in libxml2 before 2.9.3 allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds heap read) via unspecified vectors related to incorrect entities boundaries and start tags.

Related CVEs: * CVE-2014-4199: vm-support 0.88 in VMware Tools, as distributed with VMware Workstation through 10.0.3 and other products, allows local users to write to arbitrary files via a symlink attack on a file in /tmp. * CVE-2014-4200: vm-support 0.88 in VMware Tools, as distributed with VMware Workstation through 10.0.3 and other products, uses 0644 permissions for the vm-support archive, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information by extracting files from this archive.

A flaw was discovered in the way Libreswan's IKE daemon processed IKE KE payloads. A remote attacker could send specially crafted IKE payload with a KE payload of g^x=0 that, when processed, would lead to a denial of service (daemon crash).

A race condition flaw, leading to a heap-based memory corruption, was found in spice's worker_update_monitors_config() function, which runs under the QEMU-KVM context on the host. A user in a guest could leverage this flaw to crash the host QEMU-KVM process or, possibly, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the host QEMU-KVM process.

It was found that libuser, as used by the chfn userhelper functionality, did not properly filter out newline characters in GECOS fields. A local, authenticated user could use this flaw to corrupt the /etc/passwd file, resulting in a denial-of-service on the system.

XML external entity vulnerability in the Extended Computer Aided Test Tool (eCATT) in SAP NetWeaver AS ABAP 7.31 and earlier allows remote attackers to access arbitrary files via a crafted XML request, related to ECATT_DISPLAY_XMLSTRING_REMOTE, aka SAP Note 2016638.

SAPCRYPTOLIB before 5.555.38, SAPSECULIB, and CommonCryptoLib before 8.4.30, as used in SAP NetWeaver AS for ABAP and SAP HANA, allows remote attackers to spoof Digital Signature Algorithm (DSA) signatures via unspecified vectors.

Business Warehouse (BW) in SAP Netweaver AS ABAP 7.31 allows remote authenticated users to obtain sensitive information via a request to the RSDU_CCMS_GET_PROFILE_PARAM RFC function.

The cdf_check_stream_offset function in cdf.c in file before 5.19, as used in the Fileinfo component in PHP before 5.4.30 and 5.5.x before 5.5.14, relies on incorrect sector-size data, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a crafted stream offset in a CDF file.

Multiple cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerabilities in the Simple Share Buttons Adder plugin before 4.5 for WordPress allow remote attackers to hijack the authentication of administrators for requests that conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks via the (1) ssba_share_text parameter in a save action to wp-admin/options-general.php, which is not properly handled in the homepage, and unspecified vectors related to (2) Pages, (3) Posts, (4) Category/Archive pages or (5) post Excerpts.
