Kinsey’s Infor-Lawson (formerly ESBUS) suffers from a remote SQL injection vulnerability.
A buffer overflows exists in the psnotifyd application of the Pharos PopUp printer client version 9.0. A specially crafted packet can be sent to the victim’s computer and can lead to a heap based buffer overflow resulting in potential remote code execution. This client is always listening, has root privileges, and requires no user interaction to exploit.
On Cambium Networks cnPilot R200/201 devices before 4.3, there is a vulnerability involving the certificate of the device and its RSA keys, aka RBN-183.
A Buffer Overflow was discovered in EvoStream Media Server 1.7.1. A crafted HTTP request with a malicious header will cause a crash. An example attack methodology may include a long message-body in a GET request.
An exploitable buffer overflow exists in the psnotifyd application of the Pharos PopUp printer client version 9.0. A specially crafted packet can be sent to the victim’s computer and can lead to a heap based buffer overflow resulting in remote code execution. This client is always listening, has root privileges, and requires no user interaction to exploit.
A denial of service vulnerability exists in the psnotifyd application of the Pharos PopUp printer client version 9.0. A specially crafted packet can be sent to the victim’s computer and can lead to an out of bounds read causing a crash and a denial of service.
An exploitable buffer overflow vulnerability exists in the LoadEncoding functionality of the R programming language version 3.3.0. A specially crafted R script can cause a buffer overflow resulting in a memory corruption. An attacker can send a malicious R script to trigger this vulnerability.
partclone.chkimg in partclone 0.2.89 is prone to a heap-based buffer overflow vulnerability due to insufficient validation of the partclone image header. An attacker may be able to launch a ‘Denial of Service attack’ in the context of the user running the affected application.
