IBM Informix could allow an unauthenticated user to execute arbitrary commands with service account privileges on the system due to improper validation of user supplied input.
IBM Informix Dynamic Server 14.10, and 15.0 contain a local privilege escalation vulnerability in the oninit setuid-root utility.
A "potential buffer overflow in ruleset parsing" for Sendmail 8.12.9, when using the nonstandard rulesets (1) recipient (2), final, or (3) mailer-specific envelope recipients, has unknown consequences.
The dtterm terminal emulator allows attackers to modify the window title via a certain character escape sequence and then insert it back to the command line in the user's terminal, e.g. when the user views a file containing the malicious sequence, which could allow the attacker to execute arbitrary commands.
Flaw bug created to hold information about an old flaw we knew something about. For more details see the MITRE CVE description.
HP-UX aserver program allows local users to gain privileges via a symlink attack.
The default FTP configuration in HP Visualize Conference allows conference users to send a file to other participants without authorization.
HP CDE program includes the current directory in root's PATH variable.
Buffer overflow in TTSESSION environment variable in ToolTalk shared library allows local users to gain root privileges.
A Unix account has a default, null, blank, or missing password.
Buffer overflow in xmcd 2.0p12 allows local users to gain access through an environmental variable.
The suidperl and sperl program do not give up root privileges when changing UIDs back to the original users, allowing root access.
Buffer overflow and denial of service in Sendmail 8.7.5 and earlier through GECOS field gives root access to local users.
Local users can start Sendmail in daemon mode and gain root privileges.
Vacation program allows command execution by remote users through a sendmail command.
Buffer overflow in xlock program allows local users to execute commands as root.
Buffer overflow in Xt library of X Windowing System allows local users to execute commands with root privileges.
Local user gains root privileges via buffer overflow in rdist, via expstr() function.
Unauthorized privileged access or denial of service via dtappgather program in CDE.
IBM BigFix Inventory v9 is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by an XML External Entity Injection (XXE) error when processing XML data. A remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to expose highly sensitive information or consume all available memory resources.
The casrvc program in CA Common Services, as used in CA Client Automation 12.8, 12.9, and 14.0; CA SystemEDGE 5.8.2 and 5.9; CA Systems Performance for Infrastructure Managers 12.8 and 12.9; CA Universal Job Management Agent 11.2; CA Virtual Assurance for Infrastructure Managers 12.8 and 12.9; CA Workload Automation AE 11, 11.3, 11.3.5, and 11.3.6 on AIX, HP-UX, Linux, and Solaris allows local users to modify arbitrary files and consequently gain root privileges via vectors related to insufficient validation.
A denial of service flaw was found in the way the JRE processes XML. A remote attacker could use this flaw to supply crafted XML that would lead to a denial of service.
IBM GSKit-Crypto could allow a remote attacker to obtain sensitive information, caused by a timing-based side channel in the RSA Decryption implementation. By sending an overly large number of trial messages for decryption, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to obtain sensitive information.
The dochangecipherspec function in OpenSSL 0.9.6c to 0.9.6k, and 0.9.7a to 0.9.7c, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a crafted SSL/TLS handshake that triggers a null dereference.
"deny-answer-aliases" is a little-used feature intended to help recursive server operators protect end users against DNS rebinding attacks, a potential method of circumventing the security model used by client browsers. However, a defect in this feature makes it easy, when the feature is in use, to experience an assertion failure in name.c. Affects BIND 9.7.0->9.8.8, 9.9.0->9.9.13, 9.10.0->9.10.8, 9.11.0->9.11.4, 9.12.0->9.12.2, 9.13.0->9.13.2.
EMC Avamar Client 4.x, 5.x, and 6.x on HP-UX and Mac OS X, and the EMC Avamar plugin 4.x, 5.x, and 6.x for Oracle, uses world-writable permissions for cache directories, which allows local users to gain privileges via an unspecified symlink attack.
IBM Sterling Secure Proxy 6.0.1, 6.0.2, 2.4.3.2, and 3.4.3.2 uses weaker than expected cryptographic algorithms that could allow an attacker to decrypt highly sensitive information. IBM X-Force ID: 201095.
Multiple shell programs on various Unix systems, including (1) tcsh, (2) csh, (3) sh, and (4) bash, follow symlinks when processing << redirects (aka here-documents or in-here documents), which allows local users to overwrite files of other users via a symlink attack.
JFS (JFS3.1 and OnlineJFS) in HP-UX 10.20, 11.00, and 11.04 does not properly implement the sticky bit functionality, which could allow attackers to bypass intended restrictions on filesystems.
Buffer overflow in Dispatch() routine for XFS font server (fs.auto) on Solaris 2.5.1 through 9 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) or execute arbitrary code via a certain XFS query.
