∗∗∗ DFN-CERT-2017-2228/">ISC DHCPD: Eine Schwachstelle ermöglicht einen Denial-of-Service Angriff ∗∗∗
---------------------------------------------
Ein nicht authentisierter Angreifer im benachbarten Netzwerk kann eine Schwachstelle im DHCP Daemon (ISC DHCPD) mit Hilfe speziell präparierter OMAPI-Nachrichten ausnutzen, um die Zahl der verfügbaren Dateideskriptoren im zugehörigen Prozess zu erschöpfen und dadurch einen Denial-of-Service (DoS)-Zustand zu erzeugen.

Mehrere Schwachstellen im Tor Browser vor Version 7.5a9 bzw. 7.0.11 ermöglichen einem entfernten, nicht authentisierten Angreifer die Durchführung von Denial-of-Service (DoS)-Angriffen. Zwei Schwachstellen ermöglichen das Ausspähen von Informationen. Die Schwachstelle CVE-2017-7845 in der verwendeten Firefox ESR Version ermöglicht dem Angreifer das Ausführen beliebigen Programmcodes und eine weitere Schwachstelle ermöglicht Umgehen von Sicherheitsvorkehrungen.
