[SingCERT] Oracle Java Multiple Flaws Let Remote Users Execute Arbitrary Code and Local Users Gain Elevated Privileges
[ Summary ]
Multiple vulnerabilities were reported in Oracle Java. It allows a remote user to execute arbitrary code and a local user can obtain elevated privileges on the vulnerable system. A remote user can access and modify data. A remote or local user can cause denial of service conditions.
A remote user can create a specially crafted Java applet or Java Web Start application that, when loaded by the target user, will execute arbitrary code on the vulnerable system.
The 2D [CVE-2013-2383, CVE-2013-2384, CVE-2013-2394, CVE-2013-1569, CVE-2013-2434, CVE-2013-2432, CVE-2013-2420, CVE-2013-1491], Beans [CVE-2013-1558], Deployment [CVE-2013-2440, CVE-2013-2435], Hotspot [CVE-2013-2421, CVE-2013-2431], Install [CVE-2013-2425, CVE-2013-1563], JAXP [CVE-2013-1518], JavaFX [CVE-2013-0402, CVE-2013-2414, CVE-2013-2428, CVE-2013-2427], Libraries [CVE-2013-1488, CVE-2013-2422, CVE-2013-2426, CVE-2013-2436], RMI [CVE-2013-1537, CVE-2013-1557], and ImageIO [CVE-2013-2429, CVE-2013-2430] components are affected.
The RMI vulnerability [CVE-2013-1537] also affects Java server deployments.

[SingCERT] Adobe Shockwave Player Bugs Let Remote Users Execute Arbitrary Code
[ Summary ]
Adobe has released a security update for Adobe Shockwave. This update addresses vulnerabilities that could allow an remote attacker can cause arbitrary code to be executed on the affected system.
A remote user can create specially crafted content that, when loaded by the affected user, will execute arbitrary code on the affected system. The code will run with the privileges of the affected user.
A buffer overflow may occur [CVE-2013-1383].
A memory corruption error may occur [CVE-2013-1384].
A memory corruption error may occur [CVE-2013-1386].
A memory leak may occur that would facilitate address space randomization bypass [CVE-2013-1385].
