SIPVicious tools address the need for traditional security tools to be ported to SIP. This package consists of a SIP scanner, a SIP wardialer, and a SIP PBX cracker. Written in Python.

The operating system your smartphone is running may be vulnerable to USSD commands that could wipe your entire phone. Tapping on a link to a cleverly coded web page could order you phone to reset itself to factory settings and disintegrate all your private data with it. Any Android phone running Phone.apk version 4.1 or lower is at risk and that's the broader base of them. Install Bitdefender's USSD Wipe Stopper to protect against such attacks. Now, once you would tap on a exploiting link, Bitdefender will intercept the wipe command and ask you to decide what to do next. You may, if unsure, dismiss the USSD command.

Adobe ColdFusion versions 9.0, 9.0.1, and 9.0.2 do not properly check the "rdsPasswordAllowed" field when accessing the Administrator API CFC that is used for logging in. The login function never checks if RDS is enabled when rdsPasswordAllowed="true". This means that if RDS was not configured, the RDS user does not have a password associated with their username. This means by setting rdsPasswordAllowed to "true", we can bypass the admin login to use the rdsPassword, which in most cases, is blank. These details were purchased through the Packet Storm Bug Bounty program and are being released to the community.

Ubuntu Security Notice 4315-1 - Maximilien Bourgeteau discovered that the Apport lock file was created with insecure permissions. This could allow a local attacker to escalate their privileges via a symlink attack. Maximilien Bourgeteau discovered a race condition in Apport when setting crash report permissions.

Ubuntu Security Notice 4319-1 - It was discovered that the IPMI message handler implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly deallocate memory in certain situations. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service. Al Viro discovered that the vfs layer in the Linux kernel contained a use- after-free vulnerability. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or possibly expose sensitive information. Various other issues were also addressed.

Ubuntu Security Notice 4318-1 - Al Viro discovered that the vfs layer in the Linux kernel contained a use- after-free vulnerability. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or possibly expose sensitive information. Gustavo Romero and Paul Mackerras discovered that the KVM implementation in the Linux kernel for PowerPC processors did not properly keep guest state separate from host state. A local attacker in a KVM guest could use this to cause a denial of service. Various other issues were also addressed.

Ubuntu Security Notice 4320-1 - Al Viro discovered that the vfs layer in the Linux kernel contained a use- after-free vulnerability. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or possibly expose sensitive information.

Ubuntu Security Notice 4325-1 - It was discovered that the IPMI message handler implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly deallocate memory in certain situations. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service. Al Viro discovered that the vfs layer in the Linux kernel contained a use- after-free vulnerability.

Ubuntu Security Notice 4324-1 - Al Viro discovered that the vfs layer in the Linux kernel contained a use- after-free vulnerability. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or possibly expose sensitive information. Shijie Luo discovered that the ext4 file system implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly check for a too-large journal size. An attacker could use this to construct a malicious ext4 image that, when mounted, could cause a denial of service. Various other issues were also addressed.

WordPress Media Library Assistant plugin version 2.81 suffers from a local file inclusion vulnerability.

BoltWire version 6.03 suffers from a local file inclusion vulnerability.

This exploit modifies a windows language registry key which causes some windows binaries to stick, including login which makes the session unusable. The key is in HKCU and can be modified without admin rights, but with a bypass UAC, all user sessions can be paralyzed by using reg.exe and user's NTUSER.DAT.

Ubuntu Security Notice 3939-1 - Michael Hanselmann discovered that Samba incorrectly handled registry files. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to create new registry files outside of the share, contrary to expectations.

Ubuntu Security Notice 3939-2 - USN-3939-1 fixed a vulnerability in Samba. This update provides the corresponding update for Ubuntu 12.04 ESM. Michael Hanselmann discovered that Samba incorrectly handled registry files. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to create new registry files outside of the share, contrary to expectations. Various other issues were also addressed.

Ubuntu Security Notice 3975-1 - It was discovered that the BigDecimal implementation in OpenJDK performed excessive computation when given certain values. An attacker could use this to cause a denial of service. Corwin de Boor and Robert Xiao discovered that the RMI registry implementation in OpenJDK did not properly select the correct skeleton class in some situations. An attacker could use this to possibly escape Java sandbox restrictions. Various other issues were also addressed.

Ubuntu Security Notice 4251-1 - It was discovered that Tomcat incorrectly handled the RMI registry when configured with the JMX Remote Lifecycle Listener. A local attacker could possibly use this issue to obtain credentials and gain complete control over the Tomcat instance. It was discovered that Tomcat incorrectly handled FORM authentication.

Ubuntu Security Notice 3534-1 - It was discovered that the GNU C library did not properly handle all of the possible return values from the kernel getcwd syscall. A local attacker could potentially exploit this to execute arbitrary code in setuid programs and gain administrative privileges. A memory leak was discovered in the _dl_init_paths function in the GNU C library dynamic loader. A local attacker could potentially exploit this with a specially crafted value in the LD_HWCAP_MASK environment variable, in combination with CVE-2017-1000409 and another vulnerability on a system with hardlink protections disabled, in order to gain administrative privileges. Various other issues were also addressed.
