enq in bos.rte.printers in IBM AIX 6.1.0 through 6.1.2, when a print queue is defined in /etc/qconfig, allows local users to delete arbitrary files via unspecified vectors.
crontab in bos.rte.cron in IBM AIX 6.1.0 through 6.1.2 allows local users with aix.system.config.cron authorization to gain privileges by launching an editor.
Buffer overflow in autoconf6 in IBM AIX 6.1.0 through 6.1.2, when Role-Based Access Control is enabled, allows local users with aix.network.config.tcpip authorization to gain privileges via unspecified vectors.

Buffer overflow in errpt in IBM AIX 5.2, 5.3, and 6.1 allows local users to gain privileges via unknown attack vectors.
The proc filesystem in the kernel in IBM AIX 5.2 and 5.3 does not properly enforce directory permissions when a file executing from a directory has weaker permissions than the directory itself, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information.
The kernel in IBM AIX 5.2 and 5.3 does not properly handle resizing JFS2 filesystems on concurrent volume groups spread across multiple nodes, which allows local users of one node to cause a denial of service (remote node crash) by using chfs or lreducelv to reduce a filesystem's size.
The WPAR system call implementation in the kernel in IBM AIX 6.1 allows local users to cause a denial of service via unknown calls that trigger "undefined behavior."
The kernel in IBM AIX 6.1 allows local users with ProbeVue privileges to read arbitrary kernel memory and obtain sensitive information via unspecified vectors.
The ps program in bos.rte.control in IBM AIX 5.2, 5.3, and 6.1 allows local users to obtain sensitive information via unspecified vectors.
The malloc subsystem in libc in IBM AIX 5.3 and 6.1 allows local users to create or overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on the log file associated with the MALLOCDEBUG environment variable.
Buffer overflow in sasnap in the bos.esagent fileset in IBM AIX 6.1, 5.3, and earlier and VIOS 2.1, 1.5, and earlier allows local users to leverage system group membership and gain privileges via unspecified vectors.
The (1) bin/invscoutClientVPDSurvey and (2) sbin/invscoutlsvpd programs in invscout.rte before 2.2.0.19 on IBM AIX 7.1, 6.1, 5.3, and earlier allow local users to delete arbitrary files, or trigger inventory scout operations on arbitrary files, via a symlink attack on an unspecified file.
IBM AIX 6.1 and 7.1 does not restrict the wparlimitsconfig and wparlimitsmodify system calls, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (system crash) via a crafted call.
The FC SCSI protocol driver in IBM AIX 6.1 does not verify that a timer is unused before deallocating this timer, which might allow attackers to cause a denial of service (system crash) via unspecified vectors.
The FTP client in IBM AIX 6.1 and 7.1, and VIOS 2.2.1.4-FP-25 SP-02, does not properly manage privileges in an RBAC environment, which allows attackers to bypass intended file-read restrictions by leveraging the setuid installation of the ftp executable file.
The NFSv4 client implementation in IBM AIX 5.3, 6.1, and 7.1, and VIOS before 2.2.1.4-FP-25 SP-02, does not properly handle GID values, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via unspecified vectors.
The socketpair function in IBM AIX 5.3, 6.1, and 7.1 and VIOS 2.2.1.4-FP-25 SP-02 allows local users to cause a denial of service (system crash) via a crafted application that leverages the presence of a socket on the free list.
libodm.a in IBM AIX 5.3, 6.1, and 7.1 allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on a temporary file.
The kernel in IBM AIX 5.3, 6.1, and 7.1, and VIOS 2.2.1.4-FP-25 SP-02, does not properly implement the dupmsg system call, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (system crash) via a crafted application.
Multiple buffer overflows in (1) mkque and (2) mkquedev in bos.rte.printers in IBM AIX 6.1 and 7.1 allow local users to gain privileges by leveraging printq group membership.
netstat in IBM AIX 5.3, 6.1, and 7.1 and VIOS 2.2.x, when a fibre channel adapter is used, allows local users to gain privileges via unspecified vectors.
Directory traversal vulnerability in Eclipse Help in IBM Tivoli Lightweight Infrastructure (aka LWI), as used in AIX 5.3, 6.1, and 7.1, allows remote authenticated users to read arbitrary files via a crafted URL.
The mustendd driver in IBM AIX 5.3, 6.1, 7.1, and 7.2 and VIOS 2.2.x, when the jumboframes feature is not enabled, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (FC1763 or FC5899 adapter crash) via crafted packets.
IBM AIX 5.3, 6.1, 7.1, and 7.2 and VIOS 2.2.x do not default to the latest TLS version, which makes it easier for man-in-the-middle attackers to obtain sensitive information via unspecified vectors.
