Canonical Ubuntu Linux

The QXL display driver in QXL Virtual GPU 0.1.0 allows local users to cause a denial of service (guest crash or hang) via a SPICE connection that prevents other threads from obtaining the qemu_mutex mutex. NOTE: some of these details are obtained from third party information.

gdm/guest-session-cleanup.sh in gdm-guest-session 0.24 and earlier, as used in Ubuntu Linux 10.04 LTS, 10.10, and 11.04, allows local users to delete arbitrary files via a space in the name of a file in /tmp. NOTE: this identifier was SPLIT from CVE-2012-0943 per ADT1/ADT2 due to different codebases and affected versions. CVE-2012-0943 is used for the guest-account issue.

X.Org X server before 1.13.4 and 1.4.x before 1.14.1 does not properly restrict access to input events when adding a new hot-plug device, which might allow physically proximate attackers to obtain sensitive information, as demonstrated by reading passwords from a tty.

The Unity Settings Daemon before 14.04.0+14.04.20150825-0ubuntu2 and 15.04.x before 15.04.1+15.04.20150408-0ubuntu1.2 does not properly detect if the screen is locked, which allows physically proximate attackers to mount removable media while the screen is locked as demonstrated by inserting a USB thumb drive.

cmanager 0.32 does not properly enforce nesting when modifying cgroup properties, which allows local users to set cgroup values for all cgroups via unspecified vectors.

DistUpgrade/DistUpgradeMain.py in Update Manager, as used by Ubuntu 12.04 LTS, 11.10, and 11.04, uses weak permissions for (1) apt-clone_system_state.tar.gz and (2) system_state.tar.gz, which allows local users to obtain repository credentials.

Libgcrypt before 1.6.5 does not properly perform elliptic-point curve multiplication during decryption, which makes it easier for physically proximate attackers to extract ECDH keys by measuring electromagnetic emanations.

GnuPG before 1.4.14, and Libgcrypt before 1.5.3 as used in GnuPG 2.0.x and possibly other products, allows local users to obtain private RSA keys via a cache side-channel attack involving the L3 cache, aka Flush+Reload.

arch/x86/kernel/entry_64.S in the Linux kernel before 3.19.2 does not prevent the TS_COMPAT flag from reaching a user-mode task, which might allow local users to bypass the seccomp or audit protection mechanism via a crafted application that uses the (1) fork or (2) close system call, as demonstrated by an attack against seccomp before 3.16.

Multiple integer signedness errors in net/rose/af_rose.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.36-rc5-next-20100923 allow local users to cause a denial of service (heap memory corruption) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a rose_getname function call, related to the rose_bind and rose_connect functions.

Unspecified vulnerability in Oracle Java SE 7u72 and 8u25 allows local users to affect integrity via unknown vectors related to Serviceability.

The copy_shmid_to_user function in ipc/shm.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.37-rc1 does not initialize a certain structure, which allows local users to obtain potentially sensitive information from kernel stack memory via vectors related to the shmctl system call and the "old shm interface."

CUPS before 2.0 allows local users to read arbitrary files via a symlink attack on (1) index.html, (2) index.class, (3) index.pl, (4) index.php, (5) index.pyc, or (6) index.py.

Race condition in the post-installation script (mysql-server-5.5.postinst) for MySQL Server 5.5 for Debian GNU/Linux and Ubuntu Linux creates a configuration file with world-readable permissions before restricting the permissions, which allows local users to read the file and obtain sensitive information such as credentials.

X.org X server 1.13.3 and earlier, when not run as root, allows local users to cause a denial of service (crash) or possibly gain privileges via vectors involving cached xkb files.

Race condition in the tlv handler functionality in the snd_ctl_elem_user_tlv function in sound/core/control.c in the ALSA control implementation in the Linux kernel before 3.15.2 allows local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel memory by leveraging /dev/snd/controlCX access.

DistUpgrade/DistUpgradeViewKDE.py in Update Manager before 1:0.87.31.1, 1:0.134.x before 1:0.134.11.1, 1:0.142.x before 1:0.142.23.1, 1:0.150.x before 1:0.150.5.1, and 1:0.152.x before 1:0.152.25.5 does not properly create temporary files, which allows local users to obtain the XAUTHORITY file content for a user via a symlink attack on the temporary file.

dmrc.c in Light Display Manager (aka LightDM) before 1.1.1 allows local users to read arbitrary files via a symlink attack on ~/.dmrc.

Unspecified vulnerability in Oracle MySQL 5.5.46 and earlier, 5.6.27 and earlier, and 5.7.9 and MariaDB before 5.5.47, 10.0.x before 10.0.23, and 10.1.x before 10.1.10 allows remote authenticated users to affect availability via unknown vectors related to privileges.

Unspecified vulnerability in Oracle MySQL Server 5.5.45 and earlier and 5.6.26 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to affect availability via unknown vectors related to Server : Partition, a different vulnerability than CVE-2015-4802.

Unspecified vulnerability in Oracle MySQL Server 5.6.24 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to affect availability via unknown vectors related to Server : Security : Firewall, a different vulnerability than CVE-2015-4769.

The web interface in CUPS 1.7.4 allows local users in the lp group to read arbitrary files via a symlink attack on a file in /var/cache/cups/rss/ and language[0] set to null. NOTE: this vulnerability exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2014-3537.

lppasswd in CUPS before 1.7.1, when running with setuid privileges, allows local users to read portions of arbitrary files via a modified HOME environment variable and a symlink attack involving .cups/client.conf.

The web interface in CUPS before 1.7.4 allows local users in the lp group to read arbitrary files via a symlink attack on a file in /var/cache/cups/rss/.
