CVE-2013-2900 (chrome, debian_linux)

The FilePath::ReferencesParent function in files/file_path.cc in Google Chrome before 29.0.1547.57 on Windows does not properly handle pathname components composed entirely of . (dot) and whitespace characters, which allows remote attackers to conduct directory traversal attacks via a crafted directory name.

CVE-2013-2902 (chrome, debian_linux)

Use-after-free vulnerability in the XSLT ProcessingInstruction implementation in Blink, as used in Google Chrome before 29.0.1547.57, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service or possibly have unspecified other impact via vectors related to an applyXSLTransform call involving (1) an HTML document or (2) an xsl:processing-instruction element that is still in the process of loading.

CVE-2013-2903 (chrome, debian_linux)

Use-after-free vulnerability in the HTMLMediaElement::didMoveToNewDocument function in core/html/HTMLMediaElement.cpp in Blink, as used in Google Chrome before 29.0.1547.57, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service or possibly have unspecified other impact via vectors involving moving a (1) AUDIO or (2) VIDEO element between documents.

CVE-2013-2901 (chrome, debian_linux)

Multiple integer overflows in (1) libGLESv2/renderer/Renderer9.cpp and (2) libGLESv2/renderer/Renderer11.cpp in Almost Native Graphics Layer Engine (ANGLE), as used in Google Chrome before 29.0.1547.57, allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service or possibly have unspecified other impact via unknown vectors.

CVE-2013-4238

The ssl.match_hostname function in the SSL module in Python 2.6 through 3.4 does not properly handle a ” character in a domain name in the Subject Alternative Name field of an X.509 certificate, which allows man-in-the-middle attackers to spoof arbitrary SSL servers via a crafted certificate issued by a legitimate Certification Authority, a related issue to CVE-2009-2408. (CVSS:4.3) (Last Update:2014-03-26)

CVE-2013-3189 (internet_explorer)

Microsoft Internet Explorer 8 and 9 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (memory corruption) via a crafted web site, aka “Internet Explorer Memory Corruption Vulnerability,” a different vulnerability than CVE-2013-3188.

CVE-2013-3186 (internet_explorer)

The Protected Mode feature in Microsoft Internet Explorer 7 through 10 on Windows Vista SP2, Windows Server 2008 SP2 and R2 SP1, Windows 7 SP1, Windows 8, Windows Server 2012, and Windows RT does not properly implement the Integrity Access Level (aka IL) protection mechanism, which allows remote attackers to obtain medium-integrity privileges by leveraging access to a low-integrity process, aka “Process Integrity Level Assignment Vulnerability.”
