AIX versions 6.1, 7.1, and 7.2.0.2 lsmcode local root exploit.

This exploit takes advantage of known issues with debugging functions within the AIX linker library. It takes advantage of known functionality, and focuses on badly coded SUID binaries which do not adhere to proper security checks prior to seteuid/open/writes.

Ubuntu Security Notice 3457-1 - Brian Carpenter discovered that curl incorrectly handled IMAP FETCH response lines. A remote attacker could use this issue to cause curl to crash, resulting in a denial of service, or possibly execute arbitrary code.

Malbait is a honeypot written in perl. It creates fake servers and supports both TCP and UDP protocols, either singly or in combination. It outputs in CSV format as well as giving more detailed text reports. You can serve fake Telnet, FTP, SMTP, POP3, HTTP, TR-69, IMAP, asciitime, systat and echo servers, as well as serving blank or random output.

Ubuntu Security Notice 3724-1 - Jon Kristensen discovered that Evolution Data Server would automatically downgrade a connection to an IMAP server if the IMAP server did not support SSL. This would result in the user's password being unexpectedly sent in clear text, even though the user had requested to use SSL.

The imap_open function within PHP, if called without the /norsh flag, will attempt to preauthenticate an IMAP session. On Debian based systems, including Ubuntu, rsh is mapped to the ssh binary. Ssh's ProxyCommand option can be passed from imap_open to execute arbitrary commands. While many custom applications may use imap_open, this exploit works against the following applications: e107 v2, prestashop, SuiteCRM, as well as Custom, which simply prints the exploit strings for use. Prestashop exploitation requires the admin URI, and administrator credentials. suiteCRM/e107/hostcms require administrator credentials.

Ubuntu Security Notice 4160-1 - It was discovered that UW IMAP incorrectly handled inputs. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to execute arbitrary OS commands.

This Metasploit module exploits a vulnerability in Nagios XI versions before 5.6.6 in order to execute arbitrary commands as root. The module uploads a malicious plugin to the Nagios XI server and then executes this plugin by issuing an HTTP GET request to download a system profile from the server. For all supported targets except Linux (cmd), the module uses a command stager to write the exploit to the target via the malicious plugin. This may not work if Nagios XI is running in a restricted Unix environment, so in that case the target must be set to Linux (cmd). The module then writes the payload to the malicious plugin while avoiding commands that may not be supported. Valid credentials for a user with administrative privileges are required. This module was successfully tested on Nagios XI 5.6.5 running on CentOS 7. The module may behave differently against older versions of Nagios XI.

The Mandos system allows computers to have encrypted root file systems and at the same time be capable of remote or unattended reboots. The computers run a small client program in the initial RAM disk environment which will communicate with a server over a network. All network communication is encrypted using TLS. The clients are identified by the server using an OpenPGP key that is unique to each client. The server sends the clients an encrypted password. The encrypted password is decrypted by the clients using the same OpenPGP key, and the password is then used to unlock the root file system.

Ubuntu Security Notice 4201-1 - It was discovered that Ruby incorrectly handled certain files. An attacker could possibly use this issue to pass path matching what can lead to an unauthorized access. It was discovered that Ruby incorrectly handled certain regular expressions. An attacker could use this issue to cause a denial of service. It was discovered that Ruby incorrectly handled certain HTTP headers. An attacker could possibly use this issue to execute arbitrary code. Various other issues were also addressed.

This Metasploit module exploits a buffer overflow in ACDSee FotoSlate 4.0 Build 146 via a specially crafted id parameter in a String element. When viewing a malicious PLP file with the ACDSee FotoSlate product, a remote attacker could overflow a buffer and execute arbitrary code. This exploit has been tested on systems such as Windows XP SP3, Windows Vista, and Windows 7.

This Metasploit module exploits an uninitialized variable vulnerability in the Annotation Objects ActiveX component. The activeX component loads into memory without opting into ALSR so this module exploits the vulnerability against windows Vista and Windows 7 targets. A large heap spray is required to fulfill the requirement that EAX points to part of the ROP chain in a heap chunk and the calculated call will hit the pivot in a separate heap chunk. This will take some time in the users browser.

This Metasploit module exploits a vulnerability on the lrFileIOService ActiveX, as installed with HP LoadRunner 11.50. The vulnerability exists in the WriteFileString method, which allow the user to write arbitrary files. It's abused to drop a payload embedded in a dll, which is later loaded through the Init() method from the lrMdrvService control, by abusing an insecure LoadLibrary call. This Metasploit module has been tested successfully on IE8 on Windows XP. Virtualization based on the Low Integrity Process, on Windows Vista and 7, will stop this module because the DLL will be dropped to a virtualized folder, which isn't used by LoadLibrary.

This Metasploit module exploits a well known remote code execution exploit after establishing encrypted control communications with a Data Protector agent. This allows exploitation of Data Protector agents that have been configured to only use encrypted control communications. This exploit works by executing the payload with Microsoft PowerShell so will only work against Windows Vista or newer. Tested against Data Protector 9.0 installed on Windows Server 2008 R2.

Ubuntu Security Notice 3964-1 - Marcus Brinkmann discovered that GnuPG before 2.2.8 improperly handled certain command line parameters. A remote attacker could use this to spoof the output of GnuPG and cause unsigned e-mail to appear signed. It was discovered that python-gnupg incorrectly handled the GPG passphrase. A remote attacker could send a specially crafted passphrase that would allow them to control the output of encryption and decryption operations. Various other issues were also addressed.

Ubuntu Security Notice 3991-1 - Multiple security issues were discovered in Firefox. If a user were tricked in to opening a specially crafted website, an attacker could potentially exploit these to cause a denial of service, spoof the browser UI, trick the user in to launching local executable binaries, obtain sensitive information, conduct cross-site scripting attacks, or execute arbitrary code. Various other issues were also addressed.
