iDefense Security Advisory 05.14.09: Multiple Vendor Outside In Multiple Integer Overflow Vulnerabilities

May 14, 2009

I. BACKGROUND

Oracle Corp.'s Outside In Technology is a document conversion engine
supporting a large number of binary file formats. Prior to Oracle's
acquisition, the software was maintained by Stellent Inc. The software
appears to have originated from "QuickView" for Windows 98, but later
spun off. It is used by various software packages, one of which is
Motorola Inc.'s Good Mobile Messaging Server. For more information,

rPSA-2008-0185-1 vsftpd

    http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2007-5962

Description:
    Previous versions of the vsftpd package are vulnerable to a Denial
    of Service attack in which remote attackers may be able to trigger
    excessive memory consumption by issuing a large number of commands.
    
    vsftpd is not installed by default on rPath Linux 2 systems, and the
    default vsftpd.conf file provided with vsftpd does not establish a
    vulnerable configuration; therefore only systems customized to include
    and reconfigure vsftpd may be vulnerable.

 a compartment mismatch. This mismatch can cause garbage collection
 to occur incorrectly and lead to a potentially exploitable crash
 (CVE-2013-0746).
 
 Using the Address Sanitizer tool, security researcher Atte Kettunen
 from OUSPG discovered that the combination of large numbers
 of columns and column groups in a table could cause the array
 containing the columns during rendering to overwrite itself. This
 can lead to a user-after-free causing a potentially exploitable crash
 (CVE-2013-0744).

 allows user-assisted remote attackers to cause a denial of service
 (memory corruption) or execute arbitrary code via a DOT file with a
 large number of Agraph_t elements (CVE-2008-4555).
 
 This update provides a fix for this vulnerability.

Re: Breaking RSA: Totient indirect factorization

Gandlf, I'm working on a bizarrely similar project (you don't happen
to hail from New York, do you?) and have found that using the totient
function, you'd need an absurdly large number of CPU cycles to factor
RSA properly, slightly less than brute force... like, 2^5 cycles less.
The algorithm has such an absurdly high order of complexity that you'd
be wasting your time. You'd sooner solve the Riemann Hypothesis.

I have books of data on what is seemingly an identical algorithm;
please e-mail me directly if you're interested in doing this type of
research
