CORE-2008-0124: Multiple vulnerabilities in Google's Android SDK

emulator based on the QEMU emulator [4]. Public reports as of February
27th, 2008 state that the Android SDK has been downloaded 750,000 times
since November 2007 [5].

 Several vulnerabilities have been found in Android's core libraries for
processing graphic content in some of the most used image formats (PNG,
GIF an BMP). While some of these vulnerabilities stem from the use of
outdated and vulnerable open source image processing libraries other
were introduced by native Android code that use them or that implements
new functionality.


[RT-SA-2009-005] Papoo CMS: Authenticated Arbitrary Code Execution

Advisory: Papoo CMS: Authenticated Arbitrary Code Execution

The Papoo CMS allows authenticated users to upload GIF, JPG and PNG images
if they have the "upload images" privilege, which is true for all default
groups that can access the administrative interface. The CMS checks the
uploaded images only for their header, but not for the file extension. It
is therefore possible to upload images with the file extension ".php" and
a valid image header. By embedding PHP code into the image (e.g. by using
the GIF comments field), arbitrary code can be executed when requesting
the image.

Survey: "MIME/Content-Type-Sniffing" Issues in Image Uploads in Forum Scripts
Author: Jacques Copeau

Abstract
====================================================
Internet Explorer, especially versions 7 and 6, can be tricked to treat images
as html, opening XSS vulnerabilities in software that allows uploads.
IN a survey, we found myBB, fluxBB, phorum, SMF and WBB to be vulnerable to
such attacks.

Cisco Security Advisory: Cisco IOS Software Secure Copy Privilege Escalation Vulnerability

users with an attached command-line interface (CLI) view to transfer
files to and from a Cisco IOS device that is configured to be an SCP
server, regardless of what users are authorized to do, per the CLI
view configuration. This vulnerability could allow valid users to
retrieve or write to any file on the device's file system, including
the device's saved configuration and Cisco IOS image files, even if
the CLI view attached to the user does not allow it. This
configuration file may include passwords or other sensitive
information.

EEYE: Multiple Vulnerabilities In .FLAC File Format and Various Media Applications

to process Picture Data within FLAC files.

Vulnerability #6: Picture Dimension Size Heap Overflow
By modifying the width and height values in the PICTURE Metadata block,
a heap-based overflow could be achieved. When a vulnerable application
that supports FLAC images attempts to render the excessively large
image, the application allocates memory based on the dimension fields,
which could be used to overwrite memory values and pointers with
arbitrary values that could lead to code execution.

IOS Rookit: the sky isn't falling (yet)

Given that the slides aren't online yet [1], that Core hasn't published Topo's
technical paper on their website [2] yet either, and that I'm done replying to
direct inquiries about it [3], here's a summary of the IOS rootkit saga and its
impact on the Service Provider community (from my point of view :)

Topo spent a lot of time (and if you ever loaded an IOS image in IDA you know
what I'm talking about) analyzing strings and functions in IOS. In his proof
of concept he located the code doing the password check and adds a trampoline
to his backdoor code (by saving paramaters, glueing the two codes together,
doing the "new" password check and returning properly to the main code path).
Nice lesson on 101 hooking on IOS.

VMSA-2010-0007 VMware hosted products, vCenter Server and ESX patches resolve multiple security issues

 d. Third party library update for libpng to version 1.2.37

    The libpng libraries through 1.2.35 contain an uninitialized-
    memory-read bug that may have security implications.
    Specifically, 1-bit (2-color) interlaced images whose widths are
    not divisible by 8 may result in several uninitialized bits at the
    end of certain rows in certain interlace passes being returned to
    the user. An application that failed to mask these out-of-bounds
    pixels might display or process them, albeit presumably with benign
    results in most cases.

rPSA-2007-0176-1 gd php php-mysql php-pgsql php5 php5-cgi php5-mysql php5-pear php5-pgsql php5-soap php5-xsl

    Previous versions of the gd, php, and php5 packages are vulnerable
    to multiple attacks in which an attacker may cause unbounded CPU
    consumption or application crashes (Denial of Service), possibly
    leading to the execution of malicious code (Unauthorized Access).
    These attacks are generally limited to uses of the gd library to load
    existing images rather than generate new images.  Many applications
    that use gd (including all uses of gd within rPath Linux) us gd
    only for generating new images, not for loading existing images.
    
    While rPath Linux itself is not vulnerable to these attacks,
