New Mozilla troubles
The Mozilla Foundation has owned up to a new list of vulnerabilities in its
code; these holes open up the frightening prospect of arbitrary code
execution by remote attackers. Any system running Firefox, Thunderbird,
SeaMonkey, or anything based on the underlying Mozilla components (RSS
aggregators) may be vulnerable, and should be looking for updates. Here's
what has been turned up:
- There is a long list of JavaScript-related vulnerabilities, including
problems with crypto.generateCRMFRequest() (CVD-2006-1728), a
security restrictions bypass vulnerability (CVE-2006-1726), a "cloned
parent" access restriction failure (CVE-2006-1734), and a regular
expression memory corruption bug (apparently no CVE number at the
moment).
- Cascading style sheets account for a couple of problems, including an
integer overflow bug (CVE-2006-1730) and an array overflow
vulnerability (CVS-2006-1739).
- The Extensible
Binding Language (XBL) facility has an access restriction failure
(CVE-2006-1733) and a privilege escalation vulnerability
(CVE-2006-1735).
- Other troubles include "memory corruption via a particular sequence of
HTML tags" (CVE-2006-0749), a DHTML memory corruption bug
(CVE-2006-1724), and "an unspecified vulnerability" in how display
styles are handled.
Disabling JavaScript should protect against the first set of
vulnerabilities, but will do nothing for the rest of them. The only way to
protect against the full set is to update the software; new versions are
available from Mozilla. For distributor updates, see the LWN vulnerability entry.
A list of remotely-exploitable vulnerabilities this long is worrisome,
especially when it refers to a package as popular as Firefox. This browser
has gained millions of users; its reputation for better security is one of
the reasons for this success. But a single, widespread exploit of a
Firefox vulnerability could set things back in a hurry.
Unfortunately, it would seem that such an exploit is bound to happen,
sooner or later. A web browser is a seriously complex piece of code which
is simultaneously exposed to potentially hostile input from the net and
used for tasks requiring a high degree of trust - working with financial
sites, for example. Why should an attacker bother with phishing when a
browser vulnerability can enable the installation of a keystroke logging
"extension"? There can be no doubt that attackers will be tempted by a
potential payoff of that magnitude. We must hope that the security fixes
will continue to reach us ahead of the attackers.
(See also: the CERT advisory
for these vulnerabilities).

CVE-2005-3808
|
| Created: | January 20, 2006 |
Updated: | April 18, 2006 |
| Description: |
Here's another set of vulnerabilities in the Linux kernel:
- A race condition in the 2.6 kernel could allow a local user to cause a
DoS by triggering a core dump in one thread while another thread has a
pending SIGSTOP (CVE-2005-3527).
- The ptrace functionality in 2.6 kernels prior to 2.6.14.2, using
CLONE_THREAD, does not use the thread group ID to check whether it is
attaching to itself, which could allow local users to cause a DoS
(CVE-2005-3783).
- The auto-reap child process in 2.6 kernels prior to 2.6.15 include
processes with ptrace attached, which leads to a dangling ptrace
reference and allows local users to cause a crash (CVE-2005-3784).
- A locking problem in the POSIX timer cleanup handling on exit on
kernels 2.6.10 to 2.6.14 when running on SMP systems, allows a local
user to cause a deadlock involving process CPU timers (CVE-2005-3805).
- The IPv6 flowlabel handling code in 2.4 and 2.6 kernels prior to
2.4.32 and 2.6.14 modifies the wrong variable in certain circumstances,
which allows local users to corrupt kernel memory or cause a crash by
triggering a free of non-allocated memory (CVE-2005-3806).
- An integer overflow in 2.6.14 and earlier could allow a local user to
cause a hang via 64-bit mmap calls that are not properly handled on a
32-bit system (CVE-2005-3808).

libgd2: buffer overflows in PNG handling
| Package(s): | libgd2 |
CVE #(s): | CAN-2004-0990
CAN-2004-0941
|
| Created: | October 29, 2004 |
Updated: | June 28, 2006 |
| Description: |
Several buffer overflows have been discovered in libgd's PNG handling
functions.
If an attacker tricked a user into loading a malicious PNG image, they
could leverage this into executing arbitrary code in the context of
the user opening image. Most importantly, this library is commonly
used in PHP. One possible target would be a PHP driven photo website
that lets users upload images. Therefore this vulnerability might lead
to privilege escalation to a web server's privileges.
Multiple buffer overflows in the gd graphics library (libgd) 2.0.21 and
earlier may allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via malformed
image files that trigger the overflows due to improper calls to the
gdMalloc function. |

phpMyAdmin: multiple vulnerabilities
| Package(s): | phpmyadmin |
CVE #(s): | CVE-2005-4079
CVE-2005-3665
|
| Created: | December 12, 2005 |
Updated: | November 20, 2006 |
| Description: |
Stefan Esser reported multiple vulnerabilities
found in phpMyAdmin. The $GLOBALS variable allows modifying the global
variable import_blacklist to open phpMyAdmin to local and remote file
inclusion, depending on your PHP version (CVE-2005-4079, PMASA-2005-9).
Furthermore, it is also possible to conduct an XSS attack via the
$HTTP_HOST variable and a local and remote file inclusion because the
contents of the variable are under total control of the attacker
(CVE-2005-3665, PMASA-2005-8). |

CVE-2006-0377
|
| Created: | February 28, 2006 |
Updated: | June 8, 2006 |
| Description: |
Webmail.php in SquirrelMail 1.4.0 to 1.4.5 allows remote attackers to
inject arbitrary web pages into the right frame via a URL in the
right_frame parameter. NOTE: this has been called a cross-site scripting
(XSS) issue, but it is different than what is normally identified as
XSS. (CVE-2006-0188)
Interpretation conflict in the MagicHTML filter in SquirrelMail 1.4.0 to
1.4.5 allows remote attackers to conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks
via style sheet specifiers with invalid (1) "/*" and "*/" comments, or (2)
a newline in a "url" specifier, which is processed by certain web browsers
including Internet Explorer. (CVE-2006-0195)
CRLF injection vulnerability in SquirrelMail 1.4.0 to 1.4.5 allows remote
attackers to inject arbitrary IMAP commands via newline characters in the
mailbox parameter of the sqimap_mailbox_select command, aka "IMAP
injection." (CVE-2006-0377) |
