A flaw was identified in the RelaxNG parser of libxml2 related to how external schema inclusions are handled. The parser does not enforce a limit on inclusion depth when resolving nested <include> directives. Specially crafted or overly complex schemas can cause excessive recursion during parsing. This may lead to stack exhaustion and application crashes, creating a denial-of-service risk.
A flaw was found in the libxml2 library. This uncontrolled resource consumption vulnerability occurs when processing XML catalogs that contain repeated <nextCatalog> elements pointing to the same downstream catalog. A remote attacker can exploit this by supplying crafted catalogs, causing the parser to redundantly traverse catalog chains. This leads to excessive CPU consumption and degrades application availability, resulting in a denial-of-service condition.
3DES salt generation has a weakness when keys are repeated.
Difficult to exploit vulnerability allows unauthenticated attacker with logon to the infrastructure where Java SE executes to compromise Java SE. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized read access to a subset of Java SE accessible data.
Difficult to exploit vulnerability allows unauthenticated attacker with network access via multiple protocols to compromise Java SE. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized ability to cause a partial denial of service (partial DOS) of Java SE.
Missing authorization in PostgreSQL CREATE STATISTICS command allows a table owner to achieve denial of service against other CREATE STATISTICS users by creating in any schema. A later CREATE STATISTICS for the same name, from a user having the CREATE privilege, would then fail. Versions before PostgreSQL 18.1, 17.7, 16.11, 15.15, 14.20, and 13.23 are affected.
IBM AIX 7.2, and 7.3 and IBM PowerVM VIOS 4.1 could allow a local attacker to obtain sensitive information due to an out-of-bounds read.
IBM AIX 7.2, and 7.3 and IBM PowerVM VIOS 4.1 could allow a local attacker to obtain sensitive information or cause a denial of service due to an integer overflow.
IBM AIX 7.2, and 7.3 and IBM PowerVM VIOS 4.1 could allow a remote attacker to obtain sensitive information due to a path traversal vulnerability.
A vulnerability was found in libxml2 up to 2.14.5. It has been declared as problematic. This vulnerability affects the function xmlParseSGMLCatalog of the component xmlcatalog. The manipulation leads to uncontrolled recursion. Attacking locally is a requirement. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used. The real existence of this vulnerability is still doubted at the moment. The code maintainer explains, that "[t]he issue can only be triggered with untrusted SGML catalogs and it makes absolutely no sense to use untrusted catalogs. I also doubt that anyone is still using SGML catalogs at all."
IBM CICS TX Advanced could transmit highly sensitive information in query parameters that could be intercepted using man in the middle techniques.
IBM CICS TX does not set the secure attribute on authorization tokens or session cookies. Attackers may be able to get the cookie values by sending a http:// link to a user or by planting this link in a site the user goes to. The cookie will be sent to the insecure link and the attacker can then obtain the cookie value by snooping the traffic.
BEA WebLogic Express and WebLogic Server 7.0 and 7.0.0.1, stores passwords in plaintext when a keystore is used to store a private key or trust certificate authorities, which allows local users to gain access.
AIX techlibss allows local users to overwrite files via a symlink attack.
sadc in IBM AIX 4.1 through 4.3, when called from programs such as timex that are setgid adm, allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack.
(1) acledit and (2) aclput in AIX 4.3 allow local users to create or modify files via a symlink attack.
Vulnerability in AIX 4.1.4 and HP-UX 10.01 and 9.05 allows local users to cause a denial of service (crash) by using a socket to connect to a port on the localhost, calling shutdown to clear the socket, then using the same socket to connect to a different port on localhost.
lquerypv in AIX 4.1 and 4.2 allows local users to read arbitrary files by specifying the file in the -h command line parameter.
Denial of service in BIND named via naptr.
Denial of service in AIX ptrace system call allows local users to crash the system.
pcnfsd (aka rpc.pcnfsd) allows local users to change file permissions, or execute arbitrary commands through arguments in the RPC call.
Bodo Möller, Thai Duong and Krzysztof Kotowicz of Google discovered a flaw in the design of SSL version 3.0 that would allow an attacker to calculate the plaintext of secure connections, allowing, for example, secure HTTP cookies to be stolen.

Unspecified vulnerability in the rdist command in IBM AIX 5.2.0 and 5.3.0 allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via unspecified vectors.
IBM InfoSphere Information Server 11.7.0.0 through 11.7.1.6 could allow an attacker to obtain sensitive information from the query string of an HTTP GET method to process a request which could be obtained using man in the middle techniques.
RC.BOOT in IBM AIX 5.1, 5.2, and 5.3 does not "use a secure location for temporary files," which allows local users to have an unknown impact, probably by overwriting files.
ftpd in IBM AIX 5.1, 5.2 and 5.3 allows remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (port exhaustion and memory consumption) by using all ephemeral ports.
Buffer overflow in the diagnostics library in AIX allows local users to "cause data and instructions to be overwritten" via a long DIAGNOSTICS environment variable.
IBM Spectrum Protect Server 8.1.0.000 through 8.1.10.000 could disclose sensitive information in nondefault settings due to occasionally not encrypting the second chunk of an object in an encrypted container pool. IBM X-Force ID: 184746.
IBM Lotus Quickr 8.1 before 8.1.0.15 services for Lotus Domino on AIX allows remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (daemon crash) by subscribing to an Atom feed, aka SPR JRIE7VKMP9.
IBM WebSphere Application Server 7.0, 8.0, 8.5, and 9.0 could allow a local user with specialized access to obtain sensitive information from a detailed technical error message. This information could be used in further attacks against the system. IBM X-Force ID: 185370.
