Debian Security Advisories
DSA-3430 libxml2 – security update
Several vulnerabilities were discovered in libxml2, a library providing
support to read, modify and write XML and HTML files. A remote attacker
could provide a specially crafted XML or HTML file that, when processed
by an application using libxml2, would cause that application to use an
excessive amount of CPU, leak potentially sensitive information, or
crash the application.
DSA-3429 foomatic-filters – security update
Michal Kowalczyk and Adam Chester discovered that missing input
sanitising in the foomatic-rip print filter might result in the
execution of arbitrary commands.
DSA-3428 tomcat8 – security update
It was discovered that malicious web applications could use the
Expression Language to bypass protections of a Security Manager as
expressions were evaluated within a privileged code section.
DSA-3427 blueman – security update
It was discovered that the Mechanism plugin of Blueman, a graphical
Bluetooth manager, allows local privilege escalation.
DSA-3426 linux – security update
Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Linux kernel that
may lead to a privilege escalation, denial of service, information leak
or data loss.
DSA-3425 tryton-server – security update
Cédric Krier discovered a vulnerability in the server-side of Tryton, an
application framework written in Python. An authenticated malicious
user can write arbitrary values in record fields due missed checks of
access permissions when multiple records are written.
DSA-3422 iceweasel – security update
Multiple security issues have been found in Iceweasel, Debian’s version
of the Mozilla Firefox web browser: Multiple memory safety errors,
integer overflows, use-after-frees and other implementation errors
may lead to the execution of arbitrary code, bypass of the same-origin
policy or denial of service.
DSA-3421 grub2 – security update
Hector Marco and Ismael Ripoll, from Cybersecurity UPV Research Group,
found an integer underflow vulnerability in Grub2, a popular bootloader.
A local attacker can bypass the Grub2 authentication by inserting a
crafted input as username or password.
DSA-3424 subversion – security update
Ivan Zhakov discovered an integer overflow in mod_dav_svn, which allows
an attacker with write access to the server to execute arbitrary code or
cause a denial of service.
