[ MDKSA-2007:154 ] - Updated xine-ui packages fix denial of service and arbitrary code execution

 Affected: 2007.1
 _______________________________________________________________________
 
 Problem Description:
 
 Format string vulnerability in the errors_create_window function in
 errors.c in xine-ui allows attackers to execute arbitrary code via
 unknown vectors. (CVE-2007-0254)
 
 XINE 0.99.4 allows user-assisted remote attackers to cause a denial
 of service (application crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code

Vulnerabilities in BroadWin WebAccess Client 1.0.0.10

----------------
A] format string
----------------

The OcxSpool function is affected by a format string vulnerability
caused by the usage of the Msg string provided by the attacker directly
with vsprintf() without the required format argument.


------------------------------

Format string and DoS in Opium OPI and cyanPrintIP servers 4.10.x

-------------------------------------
A] format string in ReportSysLogEvent
-------------------------------------

The LPD servers are affected by a format string vulnerability in the
ReportSysLogEvent function used for logging.
The best way for exploiting this vulnerability is through a malformed
queue name which will be used to build a "Print queue" error message
directly passed to vsprintf without the needed format argument.


Layered Defense Research Advisory: Format String Vulnerablity in Symantec PcAnywhere v10-12.5

Symantec PcAnywhere  version 10 – 12.5
================================================== 
2) Severity Rating: Low
================================================== 
3) Description of Vulnerability 
A local format string vulnerability was discovered within Symantec PcAnywhere version 10 thru 12.5 .The vulnerability is due to improper processing of format strings within (.CHF) remote control file names or associated file path . When special crafted format strings are entered as the file name (%s%s%s%s%s.chf) or within the path of the CHF file the format string vulnerability is triggered. Making it possible to read/write arbitrary memory and at a minimum cause a denial of service condition.

Ruby/Gnome2 0.16.0 Format String Vulnerability

RubyGnome2 0.16.0
Format String Vulnerability In Gtk::MessageDialog
http://em386.blogspot.com

Ruby Gnome2 is a project to provide GTK2 bindings to ruby scripts so you can write GUI code in less time. There is a format string vulnerability in Gtk::MessageDialog(). This design flaw does not
allow for a user generated string to be safely sent to this function.

It is really just an API to the GTK2 function gtk_message_dialog_new() Ruby/Gnome2 does not properly use a format specifier for the message
variable in  ruby-gnome2-all-0.16.0/gtk/src/rbgtkmessagedialog.c as requested by the Gtk man page for this function.


[SECURITY] [DSA 2065-1] New kvirc packages fix several vulnerabilities

CVE Id(s)      : CVE-2010-2451 CVE-2010-2452

Two security issues have been discovered in the DCC protocol support
code of kvirc, a KDE-based next generation IRC client, which allow
the overwriting of local files through directory traversal and the
execution of arbitrary code through a format string attack.

For the stable distribution (lenny), these problems have been fixed in
version 3.4.0-5.

For the unstable distribution (sid), these problems have been fixed in

[SECURITY] [DSA 2007-1] New cups packages fix arbitrary code execution

Debian-specific: no
Debian bug     : none
CVE ID         : CVE-2010-0393

Ronald Volgers discovered that the lppasswd component of the cups suite,
the Common UNIX Printing System, is vulnerable to format string attacks
due to insecure use of the LOCALEDIR environment variable.  An attacker
can abuse this behaviour to execute arbitrary code via crafted localization
files and triggering calls to _cupsLangprintf(). This works as the lppasswd
binary happens to be installed with setuid 0 permissions.
