CVE-2012-3499

Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in the Apache HTTP Server 2.2.x before 2.2.24-dev and 2.4.x before 2.4.4 allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via vectors involving hostnames and URIs in the (1) mod_imagemap, (2) mod_info, (3) mod_ldap, (4) mod_proxy_ftp, and (5) mod_status modules. (CVSS:4.3) (Last Update:2014-01-17)

[ANNOUNCE] Apache HTTP Server 2.4.4 Released


               Apache HTTP Server 2.4.4 Released

  The Apache Software Foundation and the Apache HTTP Server Project
  are pleased to announce the release of version 2.4.4 of the Apache
  HTTP Server ("Apache").  This version of Apache is our latest GA
  release of the new generation 2.4.x branch of Apache HTTPD and
  represents fifteen years of innovation by the project, and is
  recommended over all previous releases. This version of Apache is
  principally a security and bug fix release, including the following
  2 security fixes:

   *) SECURITY: CVE-2012-3499 (cve.mitre.org)
      Various XSS flaws due to unescaped hostnames and URIs HTML output in
      mod_info, mod_status, mod_imagemap, mod_ldap, and mod_proxy_ftp.

   *) SECURITY: CVE-2012-4558 (cve.mitre.org)
      XSS in mod_proxy_balancer manager interface.

  Apache HTTP Server 2.4.4 is available for download from:

    http://httpd.apache.org/download.cgi

  Apache 2.4 offers numerous enhancements, improvements, and performance
  boosts over the 2.2 codebase.  For an overview of new features
  introduced since 2.4 please see:

    http://httpd.apache.org/docs/trunk/new_features_2_4.html

  Please see the CHANGES_2.4 file, linked from the download page, for a
  full list of changes. A condensed list, CHANGES_2.4.4 includes only
  those changes introduced since the prior 2.4 release.  A summary of all 
  of the security vulnerabilities addressed in this and earlier releases 
  is available:

    http://httpd.apache.org/security/vulnerabilities_24.html

  This release requires the Apache Portable Runtime (APR) version 1.4.x
  and APR-Util version 1.4.x. The APR libraries must be upgraded for all
  features of httpd to operate correctly.

  This release builds on and extends the Apache 2.2 API.  Modules written
  for Apache 2.2 will need to be recompiled in order to run with Apache
  2.4, and require minimal or no source code changes.

    http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/httpd/httpd/trunk/VERSIONING

  When upgrading or installing this version of Apache, please bear in mind
  that if you intend to use Apache with one of the threaded MPMs (other
  than the Prefork MPM), you must ensure that any modules you will be
  using (and the libraries they depend on) are thread-safe.



SA-CORE-2013-002 – Drupal core – Denial of service

  • Advisory ID: DRUPAL-SA-CORE-2013-002
  • Project: Drupal core
  • Version: 7.x
  • Date: 2013-February-20
  • Security risk: Critical
  • Exploitable from: Remote
  • Vulnerability: Denial of service

Description

Drupal core’s Image module allows for the on-demand generation of image derivatives. This capability can be abused by requesting a large number of new derivatives which can fill up the server disk space, and which can cause a very high CPU load. Either of these effects may lead to the site becoming unavailable or unresponsive.

Please see the Drupal 7.20 release notes for important notes about the changes which were made to fix this issue, since some sites will require extra testing and care when deploying this Drupal core release.

CVE identifier(s) issued

  • CVE-2013-0316

CVE-2013-1248 (windows_7, windows_server_2003, windows_server_2008, windows_vista, windows_xp)

Race condition 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, R2, and R2 SP1, Windows 7 Gold and SP1, Windows 8, Windows Server 2012, and Windows RT allows local users to gain privileges, and consequently read the contents of arbitrary kernel memory locations, via a crafted application, a different vulnerability than other CVEs listed in MS13-016.

CVE-2013-0015 (internet_explorer)

Microsoft Internet Explorer 6 through 9 does not properly perform auto-selection of the Shift JIS encoding, which allows remote attackers to read content from a different (1) domain or (2) zone via a crafted web site that triggers cross-domain scrolling events, aka “Shift JIS Character Encoding Vulnerability.”

CVE-2013-0073 (.net_framework)

The Windows Forms (aka WinForms) component in Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 SP2, 3.5, 3.5.1, 4, and 4.5 does not properly restrict the privileges of a callback function during object creation, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via (1) a crafted XAML browser application (XBAP) or (2) a crafted .NET Framework application, aka “WinForms Callback Elevation Vulnerability.”
