Arch Linux Security Advisory ASA-201512-12 ========================================== Severity: Medium Date : 2015-12-17 CVE-ID : CVE-2015-8549 Package : python2-pyamf Type : XML external entity injection Remote : Yes Link : https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/CVE Summary ======= The package python2-pyamf before version 0.8.0-2 is vulnerable to XML external entity injection. Resolution ========== Upgrade to 0.8.0-2. # pacman -Syu "python2-pyamf>=0.8.0-2" The problem has been fixed upstream in version 0.8.0 Workaround ========== None. Description =========== PyAMF suffers from insufficient AMF input payload sanitization which results in the XML parser not preventing the processing of XML external entities (XXE). A specially crafted AMF payload, containing malicious references to XML external entities, can be used to trigger denial of service (DoS) conditions or arbitrarily return the contents of files that are accessible with the running application privileges. Impact ====== A remote attacker is able to craft special XML files that, when processed, are injecting external entities resulting in denial of service of disclosure of arbitrary file contents.

16 Dec '15

Arch Linux Security Advisory ASA-201512-10 ========================================== Severity: High Date : 2015-12-16 CVE-ID : CVE-2015-8000 Package : bind Type : denial of service Remote : Yes Link : https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/CVE Summary ======= The package bind before version 9.10.3.P2-1 is vulnerable to denial of service. Resolution ========== Upgrade to 9.10.3.P2-1. # pacman -Syu "bind>=9.10.3.P2-1" The problem has been fixed upstream in version 9.10.3.P2. Workaround ========== None. Description =========== An error in the parsing of incoming responses allows some records with an incorrect class to be accepted by BIND instead of being rejected as malformed. This can trigger a REQUIRE assertion failure when those records are subsequently cached. Intentional exploitation of this condition is possible and could be used as a denial-of-service vector against servers performing recursive queries. An attacker who can cause a server to request a record with a malformed class attribute can use this bug to trigger a REQUIRE assertion in db.c, causing named to exit and denying service to clients. The risk to recursive servers is high. Authoritative servers are at limited risk if they perform authentication when making recursive queries to resolve addresses for servers listed in NS RRSETs. Impact ====== A remote attacker is able to send specially crafted packets to crash the bind process leading to denial of service.

[arch-security] [ASA-201512-9] firefox: multiple issues
by Levente Polyak 15 Dec '15

15 Dec '15

Arch Linux Security Advisory ASA-201512-9 ========================================= Severity: Critical Date : 2015-12-15 CVE-ID : CVE-2015-7201 CVE-2015-7202 CVE-2015-7203 CVE-2015-7204 CVE-2015-7205 CVE-2015-7207 CVE-2015-7208 CVE-2015-7210 CVE-2015-7211 CVE-2015-7212 CVE-2015-7213 CVE-2015-7214 CVE-2015-7215 CVE-2015-7216 CVE-2015-7217 CVE-2015-7218 CVE-2015-7219 CVE-2015-7220 CVE-2015-7221 CVE-2015-7222 CVE-2015-7223 Package : firefox Type : multiple issues Remote : Yes Link : https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/CVE Summary ======= The package firefox before version 43.0-1 is vulnerable to multiple issues including but not limited to arbitrary code execution, denial of service, information disclosure, same-origin policy bypass, cookie injection, URL spoofing and privilege escalation. Resolution ========== Upgrade to 43.0-1. # pacman -Syu "firefox>=43.0-1" The problems have been fixed upstream in version 43.0. Workaround ========== None. Description =========== - CVE-2015-7201 CVE-2015-7202 (arbitrary code execution) Mozilla developers and community identified and fixed several memory safety bugs in the browser engine used in Firefox and other Mozilla-based products. Some of these bugs showed evidence of memory corruption under certain circumstances, and we presume that with enough effort at least some of these could be exploited to run arbitrary code. - CVE-2015-7203 CVE-2015-7220 CVE-2015-7221 (buffer overflow) Security researcher Ronald Crane reported three buffer overflows affecting released code that were found through code inspection. They do not all have clear mechanisms to be exploited through web content but are vulnerable if a mechanism can be found to trigger them. - CVE-2015-7204 (denial of service) Security researcher Cajus Pollmeier reported crashing during some Javascript variable assignments. The issue was caused by an implementation error with unboxed objects and property storing in the JavaScript engine. This error could result in a potentially exploitable crash when triggered by JavaScript content as well as leading to errors on some websites. - CVE-2015-7205 (information disclosure) Security researcher Ronald Crane reported an underflow found through code inspection. This does not all have a clear mechanism to be exploited through web content but could be vulnerable if a means can be found to trigger it. - CVE-2015-7207 (same-origin policy bypass) Security researcher cgvwzq reported that it is possible to read cross-origin URLs following a redirect if perfomance.getEntries() is used along with an iframe to host a page. Navigating back in history through script, content is pulled from the browser cache for the redirected location instead of going to the original location. This is a same-origin policy violation and could allow for data theft. - CVE-2015-7208 (cookie injection) Security researcher musicDespiteEverything reported an issue when ASCII code 11 for vertical tab is stored in a cookie in violation of RFC6265. This may result in incorrect cookie handling by servers, resulting in the potential ability to set cookie values and read cookie data from users in concert with some web servers if the vertical tab character is mishandled during parsing. - CVE-2015-7210 (arbitrary code execution) Security researcher Looben Yang reported a use-after-free error in WebRTC that occurs due to timing issues in WebRTC when closing channels. WebRTC may still believe is has a datachannel open after another WebRTC function has closed it. This results in attempts to use the now destroyed datachannel, leading to a potentially exploitable crash. - CVE-2015-7211 (URL spoofing) Security researcher Abdulrahman Alqabandi reported that when a data: URI is parsed, the hash ('#') symbol is incorrectly handled, allowing for spoofing attacks. This issue could result in the wrong URI being displayed as a location, which can mislead users to believe they are on a different site than the one loaded. - CVE-2015-7212 (denial of service) Security researcher Abhishek Arya (Inferno) of the Google Chrome Security Team used the Address Sanitizer tool to discover an integer overflow when when allocating textures of extremely larges sizes during graphics operations. This results in a potentially exploitable crash when triggered. - CVE-2015-7213 (denial of service) Security researcher Ronald Crane reported a vulnerability found through code inspection. This issue is an integer overflow while processing an MP4 format video file when an a erroneously-small buffer is allocated and then overrun, resulting in a potentially exploitable crash. - CVE-2015-7214 (cross-origin restriction bypass) Security researcher Tsubasa Iinuma reported a mechanism to violate same-origin policy to content using data: and view-soure: URIs to confuse protections and bypass restrictions. This resulted in the ability to read data from cross-site URLs and local files. - CVE-2015-7215 (information disclosure) Security researcher Masato Kinugawa reported a cross-origin information leak through the error events in web workers. This violates same-origin policy and the leaked information could potentially be used by a malicious party to gather authentication tokens and other data from third-party websites. - CVE-2015-7216 CVE-2015-7217 (denial of service) Security researcher Gustavo Grieco reported that on Linux Gnome systems the dialog for choosing local files uses the operating system's gdk-pixbuf library to render thumbnails for image file types. This library supports various image decoders, and Grieco reported that the Jasper and TGA decoders were unmaintained and have several known vulnerabilities. Firefox has disabled the use of those decoders in gdk-pixbuf. - CVE-2015-7218 CVE-2015-7219 (denial of service) Security researcher Stuart Larsen reported two issues with HTTP/2 resulting in integer underflows that lead to intentional aborts when the errors are detected. In the first issue, if a malformed HTTP2 header frame is received with only a single byte, an integer underflow can be created in some circumstances. In the second issue, a malformed HTTP2 PushPromse frame is received and the length of the decompressed buffer is miscalculated, leading to another integer underflow. In both of these instances, more memory is allocated than is allowed, triggering assertions and intentional aborts (a denial of service) but no exploitable crashes. - CVE-2015-7222 (denial of service) Mozilla developer Gerald Squelart fixed an integer underflow in the libstagefright library initially reported by Joshua Drake to Google. The issues occurred in MP4 format video file while parsing cover metadata, leading to a buffer overflow. This results in a potentially exploitable crash and can be triggered by a malformed MP4 file served by web content. - CVE-2015-7223 (privilege escalation) Mozilla developer Kris Maglione reported a mechanism where WebExtension APIs could be used to escalate privilege. This could allow arbitrary web content to execute code with the privileges of a particular WebExtension when using these API calls. Depending on the privileges of the extension used, this could result in personal information theft and cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks, including theft of browser cookies. This is mitigated by the requirement to have a WebExtension installed that is vulnerable to this issue. Impact ====== A remote attacker is able execute arbitrary code, perform a denial of service attack, obtain sensitive information and files, bypass the same-origin policy, inject arbitrary cookies, spoof the displayed URL and escalation privileges via various vectors.

Arch Linux Security Advisory ASA-201512-8 ========================================= Severity: Medium Date : 2015-12-10 CVE-ID : CVE-2015-8378 Package : keepassx Type : information disclosure Remote : No Link : https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/CVE Summary ======= The package keepassx before version 0.4.4-1 is vulnerable to information disclosure via unintended export of plaintext credentials. Resolution ========== Upgrade to 0.4.4-1. # pacman -Syu "keepassx>=0.4.4-1" The problem has been fixed upstream in version 0.4.4. Workaround ========== None. Description =========== It was found that XML export function creates hidden XML file containing user passwords in plaintext without warning, when the export is canceled, which may go unnoticed by the user. In this case the password database was exported as the file “.xml” in the current working directory (often $HOME or the directory of the database) and is world readable. Impact ====== A local attacker can get access to secret plaintext credentials via an unintentionally exported world readable password database.

[arch-security] [ASA-201512-6] libxml2: multiple issues
by Levente Polyak 09 Dec '15

09 Dec '15

Arch Linux Security Advisory ASA-201512-6 ========================================= Severity: Medium Date : 2015-12-09 CVE-ID : CVE-2015-1819 CVE-2015-5312 CVE-2015-7941 CVE-2015-7942 CVE-2015-7497 CVE-2015-7498 CVE-2015-7499 CVE-2015-7500 CVE-2015-8035 CVE-2015-8242 Package : libxml2 Type : multiple issues Remote : Yes Link : https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/CVE Summary ======= The package libxml2 before version 2.9.3-1 is vulnerable to multiple issues including but not limited to denial of service, information disclosure or possibly other unspecified impact. Resolution ========== Upgrade to 2.9.3-1. # pacman -Syu "libxml2>=2.9.3-1" The problems have been fixed upstream in version 2.9.3. Workaround ========== None. Description =========== - CVE-2015-1819 (denial of service) A denial of service flaw was found in the way the libxml2 library parsed certain XML files. An attacker could provide a specially crafted XML file that, when parsed by an application using libxml2, could cause that application to use an excessive amount of memory. - CVE-2015-5312 (denial of service) A denial of service flaw was found that is leading to CPU exhaustion when processing specially crafted XML input. The issue was within detecting entities expansions in certain situations. - CVE-2015-7941 (denial of service) It has been discovered that libxml2 does not properly stop parsing invalid input, which allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read and libxml2 crash) via crafted XML data to the (1) xmlParseEntityDecl or (2) xmlParseConditionalSections function in parser.c, as demonstrated by non-terminated entities. - CVE-2015-7942 (denial of service) The xmlParseConditionalSections function in parser.c in libxml2 does not properly skip intermediary entities when it stops parsing invalid input, which allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read and crash) via crafted XML data. - CVE-2015-7497 (buffer overflow) A heap-based buffer overflow has been discovered in xmlDictComputeFastQKey. It was possible to hit a negative offset in the name indexing used to randomize the dictionary key generation. - CVE-2015-7498 (buffer overflow) A Heap-based buffer overflow was found in xmlParseXmlDecl. When conversion failure happens, parser continues to extract more errors which may lead to unexpected behavior. - CVE-2015-7499 (buffer overflow) A heap-based buffer overflow was found in xmlGROW allowing the attacker to read the memory out of bounds. - CVE-2015-7500 (buffer overflow) A Heap-based buffer overflow has been discovered in xmlParseMisc when not properly handling the case where the parser popped out of the current entity while processing a start tag. - CVE-2015-8035 (denial of service) A denial of service vulnerability has been discovered when parsing specially crafted XML document while XZ support is enabled. The xz_decomp function in xzlib.c did not properly detect compression errors, which allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (process hang) via crafted XML data. - CVE-2015-8242 (buffer overflow) A stack buffer overflow has been discovered in push mode in xmlSAX2TextNode. It is possible to have an input cause out of bounds memory to be returned to userspace through the use of libxml2, which could be used to cause denial of service attacks, or gain sensitive information. Impact ====== A remote attacker is able to create specially crafted XML files that, when opened or processed, is leading to denial of service, disclosure of sensitive information or possibly have other unspecified impact.
