CVSS v3.1 |
| Apache Log4j Core's XmlLayout https://logging.apache.org/log4j/2.x/manual/layouts.html#XmlLayout , in versions up to and including 2.25.3, fails to sanitize characters forbidden by the XML 1.0 specification https://www.w3.org/TR/xml/#charsets producing invalid XML output whenever a log message or MDC value contains such characters.
The impact depends on the StAX implementation in use:
* JRE built-in StAX: Forbidden characters are silently written to the output, producing malformed XML. Conforming parsers must reject such documents with a fatal error, which may cause downstream log-processing systems to drop the affected records.
* Alternative StAX implementations (e.g., Woodstox https://github.com/FasterXML/woodstox , a transitive dependency of the Jackson XML Dataformat module): An exception is thrown during the logging call, and the log event is never delivered to its intended appender, only to Log4j's internal status logger.
Users are advised to upgrade to Apache Log4j Core 2.25.4, which corrects this issue by sanitizing forbidden characters before XML output. |
| Directory Proxy Server (DPS) in Sun Java System Directory Server Enterprise Edition 6.0 through 6.3.1 does not properly implement the max-client-connections configuration setting, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (connection slot exhaustion) by making multiple connections and performing no operations on these connections, aka Bug Id 6648665. |
| The forgotten mail interface in WordPress and WordPress MU before 2.8.1 exhibits different behavior for a password request depending on whether the user account exists, which allows remote attackers to enumerate valid usernames. NOTE: the vendor reportedly disputes the significance of this issue, indicating that the behavior exists for "user convenience." |
| The SNMP service on ZyXEL Prestige routers, including P-660 and P-661 models with firmware 3.40(AGD.2) through 3.40(AHQ.3), has "public" as its default community for both (1) read and (2) write operations, which allows remote attackers to perform administrative actions via SNMP, as demonstrated by reading the Dynamic DNS service password or inserting an XSS sequence into the system.sysName.0 variable, which is displayed on the System Status page. |
| WordPress and WordPress MU before 2.8.1 exhibit different behavior for a failed login attempt depending on whether the user account exists, which allows remote attackers to enumerate valid usernames. NOTE: the vendor reportedly disputes the significance of this issue, indicating that the behavior exists for "user convenience." |
| The IPsec implementation in Linux kernel before 2.6.25 allows remote routers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a fragmented ESP packet in which the first fragment does not contain the entire ESP header and IV. |
| The default configuration of TekRADIUS 3.0 uses the sa account to communicate with Microsoft SQL Server, which makes it easier for remote attackers to obtain privileged access to the database and the underlying Windows operating system. |
| PHP 5.2.7 contains an incorrect change to the FILTER_UNSAFE_RAW functionality, and unintentionally disables magic_quotes_gpc regardless of the actual magic_quotes_gpc setting, which might make it easier for context-dependent attackers to conduct SQL injection attacks and unspecified other attacks. |
| Intel Q35, GM45, PM45 Express, Q45, and Q43 Express chipsets in the SINIT Authenticated Code Module (ACM), which allows local users to bypass the Trusted Execution Technology protection mechanism and gain privileges by modifying the MCHBAR register to point to an attacker-controlled region, which prevents the SENTER instruction from properly applying VT-d protection while an MLE is being loaded. |
| DenyHosts 2.6 processes OpenSSH sshd "not listed in AllowUsers" log messages with an incorrect regular expression that does not match an IP address, which might allow remote attackers to avoid detection and blocking when making invalid login attempts with a username not present in AllowUsers, as demonstrated by the root username, a different vulnerability than CVE-2007-4323. |
| The tblinf32.dll (aka vstlbinf.dll) ActiveX control for Internet Explorer 5.01, 6 SP1, and 7 uses an incorrect IObjectsafety implementation, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by requesting the HelpString property, involving a crafted DLL file argument to the TypeLibInfoFromFile function, which overwrites the HelpStringDll property to call the DLLGetDocumentation function in another DLL file, aka "ActiveX Object Vulnerability." |
| The default configuration of SQL-Ledger 2.8.24 allows remote attackers to perform unspecified administrative operations by providing an arbitrary password to the admin interface. |
| Internet Initiative Japan SEIL/X1, SEIL/X2, and SEIL/B1 firmware 2.30 through 2.51, when NAT is enabled, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (system restart) via crafted GRE packets. |
| The default configuration in OpenAFS 1.4.x before 1.4.4 and 1.5.x before 1.5.17 supports setuid programs within the local cell, which might allow attackers to gain privileges by spoofing a response to an AFS cache manager FetchStatus request, and setting setuid and root ownership for files in the cache. |
| Multiple unspecified vulnerabilities in the web management interface in Avaya Communication Manager (CM) 3.1.x, 4.0.3, and 5.x allow remote attackers to read (1) configuration files, (2) log files, (3) binary image files, and (4) help files via unknown vectors. |
| WebKit in Apple Safari 3 Beta before Update 3.0.3, and iPhone before 1.0.1, does not properly handle the interaction between International Domain Name (IDN) support and Unicode fonts, which allows remote attackers to create a URL containing "look-alike characters" (homographs) and possibly perform phishing attacks. |
| The selinux_ip_postroute_iptables_compat function in security/selinux/hooks.c in the SELinux subsystem in the Linux kernel before 2.6.27.22, and 2.6.28.x before 2.6.28.10, when compat_net is enabled, omits calls to avc_has_perm for the (1) node and (2) port, which allows local users to bypass intended restrictions on network traffic. NOTE: this was incorrectly reported as an issue fixed in 2.6.27.21. |
| SQL-Ledger 2.8.24 does not set the secure flag for the session cookie in an https session, which makes it easier for remote attackers to capture this cookie by intercepting its transmission within an http session. |
| The DNS server in Microsoft Windows 2000 Server SP4, and Server 2003 SP1 and SP2, uses predictable transaction IDs when querying other DNS servers, which allows remote attackers to spoof DNS replies, poison the DNS cache, and facilitate further attack vectors. |
| Unspecified vulnerability in the HP System Administration Manager (SAM) on HP-UX B.11.11 and B.11.23, when used to configure NFS, might allow remote attackers to read or modify arbitrary files, related to an "empty systems list." |
