II. DESCRIPTION
Local exploitation of a design error in the "sdbstarter" program, as
distributed with SAP AG's MaxDB, could allow attackers to elevate
privileges to root.
This vulnerability exists due to a design error in the handling of
certain environment variables. These variables are used to specify the

II. DESCRIPTION
Remote exploitation of a design error within Cisco Systems Inc's
AnyConnect VPN client allows attackers to execute arbitrary code with
the privileges of a user running Internet Explorer.
The vulnerability exists within the ActiveX control with the following
identifiers:
* CzechSec reported that specially crafted font files can lead to an
overflow in the imageloadfont() function in ext/gd/gd.c, which is
part of the GD extension (CVE-2008-3658).
* Maksymilian Arciemowicz of SecurityReason Research reported that a
design error in PHP's stream wrappers allows to circumvent safe_mode
checks in several filesystem-related PHP functions (CVE-2008-2665,
CVE-2008-2666).
* Laurent Gaffie discovered a buffer overflow in the internal
memnstr() function, which is used by the PHP function explode()

Vulnerability Explaination
=======================================
Let's wait for the Cisco response, so, we'll have a better understanding on this
issue. Meanwhile...
I think this is a design error because ACE XML doesn't have in mind that the
client could probably be in the same network segment internally, so, it receives
the request, which cannot be processed, and throws an error message disclosing
an internal IP address.
According to the ACE XML Gateway User Guide, Log Messages chapter, the listed
_BUT_, in a browser announced with such a massive hoopla about how it's
been double-especially-extra-security-hardened from the outset, _that
something more obviously sensible_ was not the _shipping default
configuration_ is gob-stoppingly stupid; a fundamentally noob-ish design
error.
In short, something that does not bode well for the product living up to
the marketing hype.
Oh, and slapping the standard "we're Google so couldn't be arsed

2. Vulnerability Summary
A remotely exploitable vulnerability has been discovered in Microsoft Office Excel products. Specifically, the vulnerability is due to a design error encountered when parsing Excel files which contain malformed records. Remote attackers can exploit this vulnerability by enticing target users to open a malicious Excel file.
3. Vulnerability Analysis
A remote attacker can exploit the vulnerability by sending a malicious Excel file to the target system and enticing the target user to open it. A successful code execution attempt will result in the execution of arbitrary code within the security privileges of the currently logged in user. An unsuccessful attack attempt will result in abnormal termination of the Microsoft Office Excel application.

II. DESCRIPTION
Local exploitation of a design error vulnerability in Microsoft's
DebugView could allow attackers to execute arbitrary kernel code.
As part of its design, DebugView loads a kernel module Dbgv.sys. This
module includes functionality that can be abused to copy user supplied
data into the kernel, to controlled addresses. This allows malicious
