The sudo utility allows system administrators to give certain users the ability to run commands as root. A flaw was found in the way sudo handled time stamp files. An attacker able to run code as a local user and with the ability to control the system clock could possibly gain additional privileges by running commands that the victim user was allowed to run via sudo, without knowing the victim"s ...
The kernel packages contain the Linux kernel, the core of any Linux operating system. * A flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel"s TCP/IP protocol suite implementation handled IPv6 sockets that used the UDP_CORK option. A local, unprivileged user could use this flaw to cause a denial of service. * An information leak flaw was found in the way Linux kernel"s device mapper subsystem, under cert ...

The kernel packages contain the Linux kernel, the core of any Linux operating system. * An information leak flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel"s device mapper subsystem, under certain conditions, interpreted data written to snapshot block devices. An attacker could use this flaw to read data from disk blocks in free space, which are normally inaccessible. Red Hat would like to thank Fujit ...
The sudo utility allows system administrators to give certain users the ability to run commands as root. A flaw was found in the way sudo handled its blacklist of environment variables. When the "env_reset" option was disabled, a user permitted to run certain commands via sudo could use this flaw to run such a command with one of the blacklisted environment variables set, allowing them ...
The libxml2 library is a development toolbox providing the implementation of various XML standards. It was discovered that libxml2 loaded external parameter entities even when entity substitution was disabled. A remote attacker able to provide a specially crafted XML file to an application linked against libxml2 could use this flaw to conduct XML External Entity attacks, possibly resulting in a d ...
The libxml2 library is a development toolbox providing the implementation of various XML standards. A denial of service flaw was found in libxml2, a library providing support to read, modify and write XML and HTML files. A remote attacker could provide a specially crafted XML file that, when processed by an application using libxml2, would lead to excessive CPU consumption based on excessive enti ...
