CVE-2013-3172 (windows_7, windows_server_2003, windows_server_2008, windows_vista, windows_xp)
Buffer overflow in win32k.sys in the kernel-mode drivers in Microsoft Windows XP SP2 and SP3, Windows Server 2003 SP2, Windows Vista SP2, Windows Server 2008 SP2 and R2 SP1, and Windows 7 SP1 allows local users to cause a denial of service (system hang) via a crafted application that leverages improper handling of objects in memory, aka “Win32k Buffer Overflow Vulnerability.”
CVE-2013-1896
mod_dav.c in the Apache HTTP Server before 2.2.25 does not properly determine whether DAV is enabled for a URI, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (segmentation fault) via a MERGE request in which the URI is configured for handling by the mod_dav_svn module, but a certain href attribute in XML data refers to a non-DAV URI.
