CVE-2017-3852

A vulnerability in the Cisco application-hosting framework (CAF) component of the Cisco IOx application environment could allow an authenticated, remote attacker to write or modify arbitrary files in the virtual instance running on the affected device. The vulnerability is due to insufficient input validation of user-supplied application packages. An attacker who can upload a malicious package within Cisco IOx could exploit the vulnerability to modify arbitrary files. The impacts of a successful exploit are limited to the scope of the virtual instance and do not impact the router that is hosting Cisco IOx. Cisco IOx Releases 1.0.0.0 and 1.1.0.0 are vulnerable. Cisco Bug IDs: CSCuy52317.

CVE-2017-3851

A Directory Traversal vulnerability in the web framework code of the Cisco application-hosting framework (CAF) component of the Cisco IOx application environment could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to read any file from the CAF in the virtual instance running on the affected device. The vulnerability is due to insufficient input validation. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by submitting crafted requests to the CAF web interface. The impacts of a successful exploit are limited to the scope of the virtual instance and do not impact the router that is hosting Cisco IOx. Cisco IOx Releases 1.0.0.0 and 1.1.0.0 are vulnerable. Cisco Bug IDs: CSCuy52302.

CVE-2017-7231

pngdefry through 2017-03-22 is prone to a heap-based buffer-overflow vulnerability because it fails to properly process a specially crafted png file. This issue affects the ‘process()’ function of the ‘pngdefry.c’ source file.

CVE-2017-5673

In the Kunena extension 5.0.2 through 5.0.4 for Joomla!, the forum message subject (aka topic subject) accepts JavaScript, leading to XSS. Six files are affected: crypsis/layouts/message/item/default.php, crypsis/layouts/message/item/top/default.php, crypsis/layouts/message/item/bottom/default.php, crypsisb3/layouts/message/item/default.php, crypsisb3/layouts/message/item/top/default.php, and crypsisb3/layouts/message/item/bottom/default.php. This is fixed in 5.0.5.

CVE-2017-7227

GNU linker (ld) in GNU Binutils 2.28 is vulnerable to a heap-based buffer overflow while processing a bogus input script, leading to a program crash. This relates to lack of ” termination of a name field in ldlex.l.

CVE-2017-7226

The pe_ILF_object_p function in the Binary File Descriptor (BFD) library (aka libbfd), as distributed in GNU Binutils 2.28, is vulnerable to a heap-based buffer over-read of size 4049 because it uses the strlen function instead of strnlen, leading to program crashes in several utilities such as addr2line, size, and strings. It could lead to information disclosure as well.

CVE-2017-7224

The find_nearest_line function in objdump in GNU Binutils 2.28 is vulnerable to an invalid write (of size 1) while disassembling a corrupt binary that contains an empty function name, leading to a program crash.

CVE-2017-7225

The find_nearest_line function in addr2line in GNU Binutils 2.28 does not handle the case where the main file name and the directory name are both empty, triggering a NULL pointer dereference and an invalid write, and leading to a program crash.

CVE-2017-7223

GNU assembler in GNU Binutils 2.28 is vulnerable to a global buffer overflow (of size 1) while attempting to unget an EOF character from the input stream, potentially leading to a program crash.
