Description
This security bulletin contains information about 17 secuirty vulnerabilities.
1) Security bypass (CVE-ID: CVE-2015-3040)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass address space layout randomization on the target system.
The weakness exists due to multiple memory leaks. A remote attacker can create a specially crafted Web site, trick the victim into visiting it, trigger memory corruption and gain unauthorized access to the system.
Successful exploitation of the vulnerability results in security bypass on the vulnerable system.
2) Information disclosure (CVE-ID: CVE-2015-3044)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass security restrictions on the target system.
The weakness exists due to insufficient access control. A remote attacker can create a specially crafted Web site, trick the victim into visiting it, bypass security restrictions and gain access to important data.
Successful exploitation results in information disclosure on the vulnerable system.
3) Use-after-free error (CVE-ID: CVE-2015-3039)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The weakness exists due to use-after-free error. A remote attacker can create a specially crafted Web site, trick the victim into visiting it, trigger memory corruption and execute arbitrary code with privileges of the current user.
Successful exploitation results in arbitrary code execution on the vulnerable system.
4) Double free (CVE-ID: CVE-2015-0359)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The weakness exists due to double-free error. A remote attacker can create a specially crafted Web site, trick the victim into visiting it, trigger memory corruption and execute arbitrary code with privileges of the current user.
Successful exploitation results in arbitrary code execution on the vulnerable system.
5) “Use-after-free” error (CVE-ID: CVE-2015-0358)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The weakness exists due to use-after-free error. A remote attacker can create a specially crafted Web site, trick the victim into visiting it, trigger memory corruption and execute arbitrary code with privileges of the current user.
Successful exploitation results in arbitrary code execution on the vulnerable system.
6) Security bypass (CVE-ID: CVE-2015-0357)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass address space layout randomization on the target system.
The weakness exists due to multiple memory leaks. A remote attacker can create a specially crafted Web site, trick the victim into visiting it, trigger memory corruption and gain access to sensitive information.
7) Memory corruption (CVE-ID: CVE-2015-3043)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The weakness exists due to boundary error. A remote attacker can create a specially crafted Web site, trick the victim into visiting it, trigger memory corruption and execute arbitrary code with privileges of the current user.
Successful exploitation results in arbitrary code execution on the vulnerable system.
Note: the vulnerability was being actively exploited.
8) Type confusion (CVE-ID: CVE-2015-0356)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The weakness exists due to type confusion error. A remote attacker can create a specially crafted Web site, trick the victim into visiting it and execute arbitrary code with privileges of the current user.
Successful exploitation results in arbitrary code execution on the vulnerable system.
9) Memory corruption (CVE-ID: CVE-2015-0354)
