Vulnerability in AIX 3.2.x and 4.x allows local users to gain write access to files on locally or remotely mounted AIX filesystems.
Vulnerability in digest in AIX 4.3 allows printq users to gain root privileges by creating and/or modifing any file on the system.
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.
snap command in AIX before 4.3.2 creates the /tmp/ibmsupt directory with world-readable permissions and does not remove or clear the directory when snap -a is executed, which could allow local users to access the shadowed password file by creating /tmp/ibmsupt/general/passwd before root runs snap -a.
Vulnerability in ptrace in AIX 4.3 allows local users to gain privileges by attaching to a setgid program.
named-xfer in AIX 4.1.5 and 4.2.1 allows members of the system group to overwrite system files to gain root access via the -f parameter and a malformed zone file.
Buffer overflow in the AddSuLog function of the CDE dtaction utility allows local users to gain root privileges via a long user name.
The ToolTalk ttsession daemon uses weak RPC authentication, which allows a remote attacker to execute commands.
Various vulnerabilities in the AIX portmir command allows local users to obtain root access.
The AIX FTP client can be forced to execute commands from a malicious server through shell metacharacters (e.g. a pipe character).
Buffer overflow in AIX writesrv command allows local users to obtain root access.
Buffer overflow in AIX xdat gives root access to local users.
Buffer overflows in Sun libnsl allow root access.
Buffer overflow in University of Washington's implementation of IMAP and POP servers.
Inverse query buffer overflow in BIND 4.9 and BIND 8 Releases.
Execute commands as root via buffer overflow in Tooltalk database server (rpc.ttdbserverd).
Format string vulnerability in the msgout function in rpc.pcnfsd in IBM AIX 6.1, 5.3, and earlier; IBM VIOS 2.1, 1.5, and earlier; NFS/ONCplus B.11.3109 and earlier on HP HP-UX B.11.11, B.11.23, and B.11.31; and SGI IRIX 6.5 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via an RPC request containing format string specifiers in an invalid directory name.
Buffer overflow in enq command in IBM AIX 4.3.x and earlier may allow local users to execute arbitrary commands via a long -M argument.
Buffer overflow in setsenv command in IBM AIX 4.3.x and earlier allows local users to execute arbitrary commands via a long "x=" argument.
Buffer overflow in setclock command in IBM AIX 4.3.x and earlier may allow local users to execute arbitrary commands via a long argument.
Buffer overflow in digest command in IBM AIX 4.3.x and earlier allows local users to execute arbitrary commands.
netstat in AIX 4.x.x does not properly restrict access to the -Zi option, which allows local users to clear network interface statistics and possibly hide evidence of unusual network activities.
Some functions that implement the locale subsystem on Unix do not properly cleanse user-injected format strings, which allows local attackers to execute arbitrary commands via functions such as gettext and catopen.
