Sam Hocevar discovered that amule, a client for the eD2k and Kad networks, does not properly sanitise the filename, when using the preview function. This could lead to the injection of arbitrary commands passed to the video player.

Laurent Almeras and Guillaume Smet have discovered a possible SQL injection vulnerability and cross-site scripting vulnerabilities in gforge, a collaborative development tool. Due to insufficient input sanitising, it was possible to inject arbitrary SQL statements and use several parameters to conduct cross-site scripting attacks.

Michael Brooks discovered that ctorrent, a text-mode bittorrent client, does not verify the length of file paths in torrent files. An attacker can exploit this via a crafted torrent that contains a long file path to execute arbitrary code with the rights of the user opening the file.

Anibal Sacco discovered that cups, a general printing system for UNIX systems, suffers from null pointer dereference because of its handling of two consecutive IPP packets with certain tag attributes that are treated as IPP_TAG_UNSUPPORTED tags. This allows unauthenticated attackers to perform denial of service attacks by crashing the cups daemon.

An information disclosure flaw was found in mod_jk, the Tomcat Connector module for Apache. If a buggy client included the "Content-Length" header without providing request body data, or if a client sent repeated requests very quickly, one client could obtain a response intended for another client.

Markus Petrux discovered a cross-site scripting vulnerability in the taxonomy module of drupal6, a fully-featured content management framework. It is also possible that certain browsers using the UTF-7 encoding are vulnerable to a different cross-site scripting vulnerability.

James Ralston discovered that the sasl_encode64() function of cyrus-sasl2, a free library implementing the Simple Authentication and Security Layer, suffers from a missing null termination in certain situations. This causes several buffer overflows in situations where cyrus-sasl2 itself requires the string to be null terminated which can lead to denial of service or arbitrary code execution.
