The __switch_to function in arch/x86/kernel/process_64.c in the Linux kernel does not properly context-switch IOPL on 64-bit PV Xen guests, which allows guest OS users to gain privileges, cause a denial of service (guest OS crash), or obtain sensitive information by leveraging I/O port access.

CVE-2016-3172 (cacti)
SQL injection vulnerability in tree.php in Cacti 0.8.8g and earlier allows remote authenticated users to execute arbitrary SQL commands via the parent_id parameter in an item_edit action.
CVE-2016-4003 (struts)
Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the URLDecoder function in JRE before 1.8, as used in Apache Struts 2.x before 2.3.28, when using a single byte page encoding, allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via multi-byte characters in a url-encoded parameter.
CVE-2016-3162
The File module in Drupal 7.x before 7.43 and 8.x before 8.0.4 allows remote authenticated users to bypass access restrictions and read, delete, or substitute a link to a file uploaded to an unprocessed form by leveraging permission to create content or comment and upload files.
CVE-2016-3163
The XML-RPC system in Drupal 6.x before 6.38 and 7.x before 7.43 might make it easier for remote attackers to conduct brute-force attacks via a large number of calls made at once to the same method.
CVE-2016-3164 (debian_linux, drupal)
Drupal 6.x before 6.38, 7.x before 7.43, and 8.x before 8.0.4 might allow remote attackers to conduct open redirect attacks by leveraging (1) custom code or (2) a form shown on a 404 error page, related to path manipulation.
CVE-2016-3165 (drupal)
The Form API in Drupal 6.x before 6.38 ignores access restrictions on submit buttons, which might allow remote attackers to bypass intended access restrictions by leveraging permission to submit a form with a button that has “#access” set to FALSE in the server-side form definition.
CVE-2016-3166 (debian_linux, drupal)
CRLF injection vulnerability in the drupal_set_header function in Drupal 6.x before 6.38, when used with PHP before 5.1.2, allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary HTTP headers and conduct HTTP response splitting attacks by leveraging a module that allows user-submitted data to appear in HTTP headers.
CVE-2016-3167 (debian_linux, drupal)
Open redirect vulnerability in the drupal_goto function in Drupal 6.x before 6.38, when used with PHP before 5.4.7, allows remote attackers to redirect users to arbitrary web sites and conduct phishing attacks via a double-encoded URL in the “destination” parameter.
CVE-2016-3168
The System module in Drupal 6.x before 6.38 and 7.x before 7.43 might allow remote attackers to hijack the authentication of site administrators for requests that download and run files with arbitrary JSON-encoded content, aka a “reflected file download vulnerability.”
