This Metasploit module targets a vulnerability in Tomcat versions 6, 7, and 8 on Debian-based distributions where these older versions provide a vulnerable tomcat init script that allows local attackers who have already gained access to the tomcat account to escalate their privileges from the tomcat user to root and fully compromise the target system.

Ubuntu Security Notice 5842-1 - Mark Esler and David Fernandez Gonzalez discovered that EditorConfig Core C incorrectly handled memory when handling certain inputs.

Ubuntu Security Notice 5824-1 - Multiple security issues were discovered in Thunderbird.

Ubuntu Security Notice 5825-2 - USN-5825-1 fixed vulnerabilities in PAM. Unfortunately that update was incomplete and could introduce a regression. This update fixes the problem. It was discovered that PAM did not correctly restrict login from an IP address that is not resolvable via DNS. An attacker could possibly use this issue to bypass authentication.

Ubuntu Security Notice 5816-2 - USN-5816-1 fixed vulnerabilities in Firefox. The update introduced several minor regressions. This update fixes the problem.

Tom Schuster discovered that Firefox was not performing a validation check on GTK drag data. An attacker could potentially exploits this to obtain sensitive information. Various other issues were also addressed.
