The Common UNIX Printing System (CUPS) provides a portable printing layer for UNIX operating systems.
A flaw has been found in the way CUPS handles certain Internet Printing Protocol (IPP) tags.
A remote attacker who is able to connect to the IPP TCP port could send a malicious request causing the
CUPS daemon to crash, or potentially execute arbitrary code. Please note that the default CUPS configuration
doesn't allow remote hosts to connect to the IPP TCP port.
An updated package fixes this vulnerability.

The Trend Micro AntiVirus scan engine provides AntiVirus capabilities to desktop, server, and gateway systems.
The engine is licensed to several of Trend Micro's OEM partners.
Local exploitation of a buffer overflow vulnerability within Tmxpflt.sys, as included with Trend Micro's AntiVirus
engine, could allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code in kernel context.
This vulnerability specifically exists due to insecure permissions on the "\\.\Tmfilter" DOS device interface.
The permissions on this device allow "Everyone" write access.
This allows a locally logged-in user to access functionality intended for privileged use only.
Additionally, the IOCTL handler of this DOS device interface for IOCTL 0xa0284403 does not validate the
length of attacker-supplied content when copying to a fixed-size buffer.
As such, it's possible to execute attacker-supplied code in the context of the kernel.
Trend Micro has addressed this vulnerability with the release of version 8.550-1001 of their scan engine.

RealNetworks RealPlayer is a multimedia application that allows users to view local and remote audio/video content.
The RealPlayer Database Component, which is provided by MPAMedia.dll, contains a stack buffer overflow in the
handling of playlist names.
The RealPlayer IERPCtl ActiveX control, which is provided by ierpplug.dll, can be used to import a local file
into a specified playlist in RealPlayer.
This can be used to trigger the buffer overflow vulnerability. The ActiveX control is present in RealPlayer
version 9 (RealOne Player) and later.
By convincing a user to view a specially crafted HTML document, a remote, unauthenticated attacker may be
able to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user on a vulnerable system.
So an update to the latest version is strongly recommended.

GForge is a collaborative development tool.
Exploiting a Cross-Site Scripting vulnerability, it allows
remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML in the context of a logged in user's session.
Several local vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Xen hypervisor packages which may lead to the execution of arbitrary code.
Updated packages are available now.

The Java Runtime Environment (JRE) may allow untrusted applets or applications to display an oversized window
so the warning banner is not visible to the user.
Some security vulnerabilities in Java Runtime Environment may allow network access restrictions to be circumvented.
An untrusted Java Web Start Application or Java Applet may move or copy arbitrary files by requesting the user
to drag and drop a file from application or applet window to a desktop application.
Further on, multiple security vulnerabilities in Java Web Start have been found regarding local file access.
It's recommended to upgrade to the latest version.

Drupal is an open source content management platform.
Some vulnerabilities concerning Cross-Site Scripting have been found.
Additionally cross site requests might be possible as well as remotely overwriting arbitrary files.
New versions fix these problems.

A command injection issue has been found in Apple QuickTime's handling of URLs in the qtnext field in files with
QTL content. By enticing a user to open a specially crafted file, an attacker may cause an application to be
launched with controlled command line arguments, which may lead to arbitrary code execution.
A security update addresses the issue through improved handling of URLs.
Mac OS X systems are not affected by this problem.

Several local vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Linux kernel that may lead to a Denial-of-Service
or the execution of arbitrary code.
An updated package remedies these problems.

An off-by-one error has been identified in the SSL_get_shared_ciphers() routine in the libssl library from OpenSSL,
an implementation of Secure Socket Layer cryptographic libraries and utilities.
This error could allow an attacker to crash an application making use of OpenSSL's libssl library,
or potentially execute arbitrary code in the security context of the user running such an application.
Additionally, in some implementations a flaw in how OpenSSL performed Montgomery multiplications has been discovered.
This could allow a local attacker to reconstruct RSA private keys by examining another user's OpenSSL processes.
Updated packages are available for some systems.

A security vulnerability in the Solaris Named Pipes (pipe(2)) may
allow a local unprivileged user to gain access to unauthorized memory
locations. This may allow a local unprivileged user to read
potentially sensitive data in the kernel's memory layout or in the
memory layouts of other processes running on the system.
A patch addresses this issue.

Several flaws were found in the Xen virtual machine monitor.
A stack buffer overflow flaw was discovered in the RPC library used by
nfs-utils-lib.
A remote unauthenticated attacker who can access an application linked
against nfs-utils-lib could trigger this flaw and cause the application
to crash.
Fixed packages are available now.

A heap-based buffer overflow in libsndfile could allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a FLAC file
with crafted PCM data which contains a block with a size exceeding that of the previous block.
The same may also happen when specially crafted .avi files are opened with the mplayer.
Fixed packages solve these problems.

Google Gmail is a web based mail service.
According to a report on the GNUCITIZEN site, Gmail contained a cross-site request forgery (XSRF) vulnerability
that allowed attackers to create mail filters and forward mail to arbitrary email addresses.
So a remote attacker could have collected email addresses, emails, and attachments from a user's Gmail account.
To exploit this vulnerability, an attacker would have had to convince a user to click or open a specially crafted
hyperlink while the user was logged into their Gmail account.
Google has addressed this vulnerability.

send unsolicited bulk e-mail (spam).
Fixed Firmware is available now.
