Ubuntu Security Notice 609-1 - It was discovered that arbitrary Java methods were not filtered out when opening databases in OpenOffice.org. If a user were tricked into running a specially crafted query, a remote attacker could execute arbitrary Java with user privileges. Multiple memory overflow flaws were discovered in OpenOffice.org's handling of Quattro Pro, EMF, and OLE files. If a user were tricked into opening a specially crafted document, a remote attacker might be able to execute arbitrary code with user privileges.

Debian Security Advisory 1578-1 - Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in PHP version 4, a server-side, HTML-embedded scripting language. The session_start function allows remote attackers to insert arbitrary attributes into the session cookie via special characters in a cookie that is obtained from various parameters. A denial of service was possible through a malicious script abusing the glob() function. Certain maliciously constructed input to the wordwrap() function could lead to a denial of service attack. Large len values of the stspn() or strcspn() functions could allow an attacker to trigger integer overflows to expose memory or cause denial of service. The escapeshellcmd API function could be attacked via incomplete multibyte chars.

Debian Security Advisory 1572-1 - Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in PHP, a server-side, HTML-embedded scripting language. The glob function allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary code via an invalid value of the flags parameter. Integer overflow allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly have other impact via a printf format parameter with a large width specifier. Stack-based buffer overflow in the FastCGI SAPI. The escapeshellcmd API function could be attacked via incomplete multibyte chars.

Debian Security Advisory 1565-1 - Several local vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Linux kernel that may lead to a denial of service or the execution of arbitrary code. Cyrill Gorcunov reported a NULL pointer dereference in code specific to the CHRP PowerPC platforms. Local users could exploit this issue to achieve a Denial of Service (DoS). Nick Piggin of SuSE discovered a number of issues in subsystems which register a fault handler for memory mapped areas. This issue can be exploited by local users to achieve a Denial of Service (DoS) and possibly execute arbitrary code. David Peer discovered that users could escape administrator imposed cpu time limitations (RLIMIT_CPU) by setting a limit of 0. Alexander Viro discovered a race condition in the directory notification subsystem that allows local users to cause a Denial of Service (oops) and possibly result in an escalation of privileges.

Debian Security Advisory 1588-2 - Johannes Bauer discovered an integer overflow condition in the hrtimer subsystem on 64-bit systems. This can be exploited by local users to trigger a denial of service (DoS) by causing the kernel to execute an infinite loop. Jan Kratochvil reported a local denial of service condition that permits local users on systems running the amd64 flavor kernel to cause a system crash. Paul Harks discovered a memory leak in the Simple Internet Transition (SIT) code used for IPv6 over IPv4 tunnels. This can be exploited by remote users to cause a denial of service condition. David Miller and Jan Lieskovsky discovered issues with the virtual address range checking of mmaped regions on the sparc architecture that may be exploited by local users to cause a denial of service. This updated advisory adds the linux-2.6 build for s390 and the fai-kernels build for powerpc which were not yet available at the time of DSA-1588-1.

Description:

Cisco Security Advisory - The Secure Shell server (SSH) implementation in Cisco IOS contains multiple vulnerabilities that allow unauthenticated users the ability to generate a spurious memory access error or, in certain cases, reload the device. The IOS SSH server is an optional service that is disabled by default, but its use is highly recommended as a security best practice for management of Cisco IOS devices. SSH can be configured as part of the AutoSecure feature in the initial configuration of IOS devices, AutoSecure run after initial configuration, or manually. Devices that are not configured to accept SSH connections are not affected by these vulnerabilities.

Ubuntu Security Notice 607-1 - It was discovered that Emacs did not account for precision when formatting integers. If a user were tricked into opening a specially crafted file, an attacker could cause a denial of service or possibly other unspecified actions. This issue does not affect Ubuntu 8.04. Steve Grubb discovered that the vcdiff script as included in Emacs created temporary files in an insecure way when used with SCCS. Local users could exploit a race condition to create or overwrite files with the privileges of the user invoking the program.

Ubuntu Security Notice 612-2 - A weakness has been discovered in the random number generator used by OpenSSL on Debian and Ubuntu systems. As a result of this weakness, certain encryption keys are much more common than they should be, such that an attacker could guess the key through a brute-force attack given minimal knowledge of the system. This particularly affects the use of encryption keys in OpenSSH. This vulnerability only affects operating systems which (like Ubuntu) are based on Debian. However, other systems can be indirectly affected if weak keys are imported into them. We consider this an extremely serious vulnerability, and urge all users to act immediately to secure their systems.
