file before 5.19 does not properly restrict the amount of data read during a regex search, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) via a crafted file that triggers backtracking during processing of an awk rule. NOTE: this vulnerability exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2013-7345.

The (1) get_user and (2) put_user API functions in the Linux kernel before 3.5.5 on the v6k and v7 ARM platforms do not validate certain addresses, which allows attackers to read or modify the contents of arbitrary kernel memory locations via a crafted application, as exploited in the wild against Android devices in October and November 2013.

The Zoner AntiVirus Free application for Android does not verify that the server hostname matches a domain name in the subject's Common Name (CN) field of the X.509 certificate, which allows man-in-the-middle attackers to spoof SSL servers via an arbitrary valid certificate, as demonstrated by a server used for updating virus signature files.

The journal_unmap_buffer function in fs/jbd2/transaction.c in the Linux kernel before 3.3.1 does not properly handle the _Delay and _Unwritten buffer head states, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (system crash) by leveraging the presence of an ext4 filesystem that was mounted with a journal.

Stack consumption vulnerability in the fnmatch implementation in apr_fnmatch.c in the Apache Portable Runtime (APR) library before 1.4.3 and the Apache HTTP Server before 2.2.18, and in fnmatch.c in libc in NetBSD 5.1, OpenBSD 4.8, FreeBSD, Apple Mac OS X 10.6, Oracle Solaris 10, and Android, allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU and memory consumption) via *? sequences in the first argument, as demonstrated by attacks against mod_autoindex in httpd.

Use-after-free vulnerability in WebKit, as used in Apple Safari before 5.0.5; iOS before 4.3.2 for iPhone, iPod, and iPad; iOS before 4.2.7 for iPhone 4 (CDMA); and possibly other products allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by adding children to a WBR tag and then removing the tag, related to text nodes, as demonstrated by Chaouki Bekrar during a Pwn2Own competition at CanSecWest 2011.

Unspecified vulnerability in Octopussy before 0.9.5.8 has unknown impact and attack vectors related to a "major security" vulnerability.

Opera before 9.23 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via crafted Javascript that triggers a "virtual function call on an invalid pointer."

Multiple buffer overflows in STLport before 5.0.3 allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via unspecified vectors relating to (1) "print floats" and (2) a missing null termination in the "rope constructor."

Multiple buffer overflows in STLport 5.0.2 might allow local users to execute arbitrary code via (1) long locale environment variables to a strcpy function call in c_locale_glibc2.c and (2) long arguments to unspecified functions in num_put_float.cpp.
