An elevation of privilege vulnerability exists in Microsoft Windows when the Web Proxy Auto Discovery (WPAD) protocol falls back to a vulnerable proxy discovery process. An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could bypass security and gain elevated privileges on a targeted system.
Incorrect signedness comparison in the ioctl handler of the atkbd keyboard driver in the FreeBSD kernel can be leveraged by a local unprivileged user to overwrite a portion of the kernel memory, thus allowing the attacker to gain root privileges on the affected system.
When the "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\exefile" registry key is modified by this exploit and a Windows or third party service calls to the "ShellExecute" function, an invalid association file is produced, finalizing the attack with the execution of a crafted program instead of the original program.
This update fixes a regression introduced in version 2016_R1.

A certain message parsing function inside the Dameware Mini Remote Control service does not properly validate the input size of an incoming string before passing it to wsprintfw().
This module exploits a "win32k.sys" integer overflow in Windows kernel by calling to "PathToRegion" function with crafted parameters.
This module exploits a user-after-free vulnerability in the Linux Kernel.
When bpf(BPF_PROG_LOAD, ...) was invoked with a BPF program whose bytecode references a non-map file descriptor as a map file descriptor, the error handling code called fdput() twice instead of once (in __bpf_map_get() and in replace_map_fd_with_map_ptr()). If the file descriptor table of the current task is shared, this causes f_count to be decremented too much, allowing the struct file to be freed while it is still in use (use-after-free). This can be exploited to gain root privileges by an unprivileged user.
This update improves how the module removes unnecessary files after an exploitation attempt.

The Admin framework in Apple OS X contains a hidden backdoor API to gain root privileges. A local user can exploit this flaw in the checking of XPC entitlements.
This module exploits a vulnerability in "Windows Secondary Logon Service" when it fails to properly manage request handles in memory.
Exim installations compiled with Perl support do not perform sanitation of the environment before loading a perl script defined with perl_startup setting in exim config file. This can be exploited by malicious local attackers to gain root privileges.
