VMSA-2010-0005 VMware products address vulnerabilities in WebAccess

    This vulnerability can only be exploited if the attacker tricks the
    WebAccess user into clicking a malicious link and the attacker has
    control of a server on the same network as the system where
    WebAccess is being used.

    Workaround
    By switching off WebAccess the issue can no longer be exploited.
    This can be accomplished on affected versions of Virtual Center and
    ESX as follows:
     
    Virtual Center 2.0.2 and Virtual Center 2.5:

CVE-2009-1190: Spring Framework Remote Denial of Service Vulnerability

Versions Affected:
Spring Framework 1.1.0-2.5.6, 3.0.0.M1-3.0.0.M2
dm Server 1.0.0-1.0.2 (note 2.x not affected since dm Server 2.x requires a 1.6 JDK)

Description:
The j.u.r.Pattern.compile method in Sun 1.5 JDK has a problem ([1],[2]) with exponential compilation times, when using optional groups. A workaround [3] was implemented in 1.4.2_06 but the root cause of poor performance in regex processing was not resolved until JDK 1.6.
JdkRegexpMethodPointcut calls Pattern.compile(source[i]); via it's inherited readObject method (from AbstractRegexpMethodPointcut). When Sun JVM 1.5 driven application with spring.jar in its classpath accepts serializable data, an attacker could use a long regex string with many optional groups to consume enormous CPU resources. And, with a few requests all listeners will be occupied with compiling regex expressions forever.

Mitigation:
* Users of all products may upgrade to JRE/JDK 1.6 which includes the fix for the root cause
* Spring Framework 2.5.6.SEC01 has been released for Community users that includes a workaround to the root cause - see[4] for upgrade steps

Cisco Security Advisory: Multiple Cisco IOS Session Initiation Protocol Denial of Service Vulnerabilities

Cisco has released free software updates that address these

the vulnerabilities apart from disabling the protocol or feature
itself, if administrators do not require the Cisco IOS device to
provide voice over IP services.

The history of a -probably- 13 years old Oracle bug: TNS Poison

This only applies to Oracle 11g with the newest security features
enabled which is, by the way, default behavior. Anyway, an attack
detected at the TNS listener's log level is not a detected attack at the
RDBMS server level, neither an attack prevention method.

Workarounds
-----------

Better than using workarounds is to patch the vulnerability. However, in
case you're using an outdated version for which no patch is available or
if you can't pach for a reason, the following is a list of possible
