Red Hat Security Advisory 2016-0426-01 – The Red Hat Support plug-in for Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization offers seamless integrated access to Red Hat subscription services from the Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization administration portal. The plug-in provides automated functionality that enables quicker help, answers, and proactive services. It offers easy and instant access to Red Hat exclusive knowledge, resources, engagement, and diagnostic features. It was found that redhat-support-plugin-rhev passed a user-specified path and file name directly to the command line in the log viewer component. This could allow users with the SuperUser role on any Entity to execute arbitrary commands on any host in the RHEV environment.

Gentoo Linux Security Advisory 201603-4 – The fusermount binary in FUSE does not properly clear the environment before invoking mount or umount as root that allows a local user to overwrite arbitrary files. Versions less than 2.9.4 are affected.

Red Hat Security Advisory 2016-0428-01 – The libssh2 packages provide a library that implements the SSHv2 protocol. A type confusion issue was found in the way libssh2 generated ephemeral secrets for the diffie-hellman-group1 and diffie-hellman-group14 key exchange methods. This would cause an SSHv2 Diffie-Hellman handshake to use significantly less secure random parameters.

Red Hat Security Advisory 2016-0429-01 – Chromium is an open-source web browser, powered by WebKit. Several flaws were found in the processing of malformed web content.
