Ubuntu Security Notice 2701-1 – Andy Lutomirski discovered a flaw in the Linux kernel’s handling of nested NMIs (non-maskable interrupts). An unprivileged local user could exploit this flaw to cause a denial of service (system crash) or potentially escalate their privileges. Andy Lutomirski discovered a flaw that allows user to cause the Linux kernel to ignore some NMIs (non-maskable interrupts). A local unprivileged user could exploit this flaw to potentially cause the system to miss important NMIs resulting in unspecified effects. Various other issues were also addressed.

Debian Linux Security Advisory 3321-1 – The InCommon Shibboleth Training team discovered that XMLTooling, a C++ XML parsing library, did not properly handle an exception when parsing well-formed but schema-invalid XML. This could allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via crafted XML data.

Ubuntu Security Notice 2699-1 – Enrico Zini discovered that HPLIP used a short GPG key ID when downloading keys from the keyserver. An attacker could possibly use this to return a different key with a duplicate short key id and perform a man-in-the-middle attack on printer plugin installations.

Ubuntu Security Notice 2698-1 – It was discovered that SQLite incorrectly handled skip-scan optimization. An attacker could use this issue to cause applications using SQLite to crash, resulting in a denial of service, or possibly execute arbitrary code. This issue only affected Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. Michal Zalewski discovered that SQLite incorrectly handled dequoting of collation-sequence names. An attacker could use this issue to cause applications using SQLite to crash, resulting in a denial of service, or possibly execute arbitrary code. This issue only affected Ubuntu 14.04 LTS and Ubuntu 15.04. Various other issues were also addressed.

Red Hat Security Advisory 2015-1525-01 – Red Hat JBoss Operations Network is a Middleware management solution that provides a single point of control to deploy, manage, and monitor JBoss Enterprise Middleware, applications, and services. This JBoss Operations Network 3.3.3 release serves as a replacement for JBoss Operations Network 3.3.2, and includes several bug fixes.

Red Hat Security Advisory 2015-1526-01 – The java-1.6.0-openjdk packages provide the OpenJDK 6 Java Runtime Environment and the OpenJDK 6 Java Software Development Kit. Multiple flaws were discovered in the 2D, CORBA, JMX, Libraries and RMI components in OpenJDK. An untrusted Java application or applet could use these flaws to bypass Java sandbox restrictions. A flaw was found in the way the Libraries component of OpenJDK verified Online Certificate Status Protocol responses. An OCSP response with no nextUpdate date specified was incorrectly handled as having unlimited validity, possibly causing a revoked X.509 certificate to be interpreted as valid.
