CVE’s

vcdiff in Emacs 20.7 to 22.1.50, when used with SCCS, allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on temporary files.

The CairoFont::create function in CairoFontEngine.cc in Poppler, possibly before 0.8.0, as used in Xpdf, Evince, ePDFview, KWord, and other applications, does not properly handle embedded fonts in PDF files, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted font object, related to dereferencing a function pointer associated with the type of this font object.

Eterm 0.9.4 opens a terminal window on :0 if -display is not specified and the DISPLAY environment variable is not set, which might allow local users to hijack X11 connections. NOTE: realistic attack scenarios require that the victim enters a command on the wrong machine.

Unspecified vulnerability in SLMail.exe in SLMail Pro 6.3.1.0 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (UDP service outage) via a large packet to UDP port 54. NOTE: some of these details are obtained from third party information.

WebContainer.exe 1.0.0.336 and earlier in SLMail Pro 6.3.1.0 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and daemon crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a long URI in HTTP requests to TCP port 801. NOTE: some of these details are obtained from third party information.

Stack consumption vulnerability in WebContainer.exe 1.0.0.336 and earlier in SLMail Pro 6.3.1.0 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (daemon crash) via a long request header in an HTTP request to TCP port 801. NOTE: some of these details are obtained from third party information.

Unspecified vulnerability in GNU m4 before 1.4.11 might allow context-dependent attackers to execute arbitrary code, related to improper handling of filenames specified with the -F option. NOTE: it is not clear when this issue crosses privilege boundaries.

The (1) maketemp and (2) mkstemp builtin functions in GNU m4 before 1.4.11 do not quote their output when a file is created, which might allow context-dependent attackers to trigger a macro expansion, leading to unspecified use of an incorrect filename.

Array index vulnerability in Speex 1.1.12 and earlier, as used in libfishsound 0.9.0 and earlier, including Illiminable DirectShow Filters and Annodex Plugins for Firefox, xine-lib before 1.1.12, and many other products, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a header structure containing a negative offset, which is used to dereference a function pointer.

** DISPUTED ** gcc 4.2.0 through 4.3.0 in GNU Compiler Collection, when casts are not used, considers the sum of a pointer and an int to be greater than or equal to the pointer, which might lead to removal of length testing code that was intended as a protection mechanism against integer overflow and buffer overflow attacks, and provide no diagnostic message about this removal. NOTE: the vendor has determined that this compiler behavior is correct according to section 6.5.6 of the C99 standard (aka ISO/IEC 9899:1999).
