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 the filecomp function in rcp for IBM AIX 4.3.x and 5.1 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code.

Buffer overflow in login in various System V based operating systems allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via a large number of arguments through services such as telnet and rlogin.

Buffer overflows in (1) sendstatus, (2) killprint, and (3) chkfhost in lpd in AIX 4.3 and 5.1 allow remote attackers to gain root privileges.

Buffer overflow in BSD-based telnetd telnet daemon on various operating systems allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via a set of options including AYT (Are You There), which is not properly handled by the telrcv function.

diagrpt in AIX 4.3.x and 5.1 uses the DIAGDATADIR environment variable to find and execute certain programs, which allows local users to gain privileges by modifying the variable to point to a Trojan horse program.

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.

Denial of service in BIND named via malformed SIG records.

Buffer overflow in AIX ftpd in the libc library.

IRIX and AIX automountd services (autofsd) allow remote users to execute root commands.

Inverse query buffer overflow in BIND 4.9 and BIND 8 Releases.
