Stack-based buffer overflow in the consoptions function in options.c in dhcpd in OpenBSD 4.0 through 4.2, and some other dhcpd implementations based on ISC dhcp-2, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (daemon crash) via a DHCP request specifying a maximum message size smaller than the minimum IP MTU.
Buffer overflow in the polymorphic opcode support in the Regular Expression Engine (regcomp.c) in Perl 5.8 allows context-dependent attackers to execute arbitrary code by switching from byte to Unicode (UTF) characters in a regular expression.
XScreenSaver 4.10, when using a remote directory service for credentials, does not properly handle the results from the getpwuid function in drivers/lock.c when there is no network connectivity, which causes XScreenSaver to crash and unlock the screen and allows local users to bypass authentication.
Integer overflow in the FontFileInitTable function in X.Org libXfont before 20070403 allows remote authenticated users to execute arbitrary code via a long first line in the fonts.dir file, which results in a heap overflow.
Integer overflow in the bdfReadCharacters function in bdfread.c in (1) X.Org libXfont before 20070403 and (2) freetype 2.3.2 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to execute arbitrary code via crafted BDF fonts, which result in a heap overflow.
A "stack overwrite" vulnerability in GnuPG (gpg) 1.x before 1.4.6, 2.x before 2.0.2, and 1.9.0 through 1.9.95 allows attackers to execute arbitrary code via crafted OpenPGP packets that cause GnuPG to dereference a function pointer from deallocated stack memory.
The original patch for a GNU tar directory traversal vulnerability (CVE-2002-0399) in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3 and 2.1 uses an "incorrect optimization" that allows user-assisted attackers to overwrite arbitrary files via a crafted tar file, probably involving "/../" sequences with a leading "/".
Xpdf, as used in products such as gpdf, kpdf, pdftohtml, poppler, teTeX, CUPS, libextractor, and others, allows attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop) via streams that end prematurely, as demonstrated using the (1) CCITTFaxDecode and (2) DCTDecode streams, aka "Infinite CPU spins."
Xpdf, as used in products such as gpdf, kpdf, pdftohtml, poppler, teTeX, CUPS, libextractor, and others, allows attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a crafted FlateDecode stream that triggers a null dereference.
The CCITTFaxStream::CCITTFaxStream function in Stream.cc for xpdf, gpdf, kpdf, pdftohtml, poppler, teTeX, CUPS, libextractor, and others allows attackers to corrupt the heap via negative or large integers in a CCITTFaxDecode stream, which lead to integer overflows and integer underflows.
sysreport 1.3.15 and earlier includes contents of the up2date file in a report, which leaks the password for a proxy server in plaintext and allows local users to gain privileges.
Stack-based buffer overflow in the ieeeputascii function for nasm 0.98 and earlier allows attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted asm file, a different vulnerability than CVE-2004-1287.
The secure script in LogWatch before 2.6-2 allows attackers to prevent LogWatch from detecting malicious activity via certain strings in the secure file that are later used as part of a regular expression, which causes the parser to crash, aka "logwatch log processing regular expression DoS."
Race condition in gzip 1.2.4, 1.3.3, and earlier, when decompressing a gzipped file, allows local users to modify permissions of arbitrary files via a hard link attack on a file while it is being decompressed, whose permissions are changed by gzip after the decompression is complete.
Multiple buffer overflows in the dissecta11radius function in the CDMA A11 (3G-A11) dissector (packet-3g-a11.c) for Ethereal 0.10.9 and earlier allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via RADIUS authentication packets with large length values.
Buffer overflow in Sylpheed before 1.0.3 and other versions before 1.9.5 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via an e-mail message with certain headers containing non-ASCII characters that are not properly handled when the user replies to the message.
The patch for integer overflow vulnerabilities in Xpdf 2.0 and 3.0 (CVE-2004-0888) is incomplete for 64-bit architectures on certain Linux distributions such as Red Hat, which could leave Xpdf users exposed to the original vulnerabilities.
The KDE screen saver in KDE before 3.0.5 does not properly check the return value from a certain function call, which allows attackers with physical access to cause a crash and access the desktop session.
Multiple format string vulnerabilities in Midnight Commander (mc) 4.5.55 and earlier allow remote attackers to have an unknown impact.
Multiple buffer overflows in Midnight Commander (mc) 4.5.55 and earlier allow remote attackers to have an unknown impact.
Midnight commander (mc) 4.5.55 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop) via unknown attack vectors.
Buffer underflow in extfs.c in Midnight Commander (mc) 4.5.55 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary code.
direntry.c in Midnight Commander (mc) 4.5.55 and earlier allows attackers to cause a denial of service by "manipulating non-existing file handles."
Midnight commander (mc) 4.5.55 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service by triggering a null dereference.
Midnight commander (mc) 4.5.55 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via "a corrupt section header."
fish.c in midnight commander allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary programs via "insecure filename quoting," possibly using shell metacharacters.
Midnight commander (mc) 4.5.55 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via "use of already freed memory."
Midnight commander (mc) 4.5.55 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service by causing mc to free unallocated memory.
Unknown vulnerability in the DICOM dissector in Ethereal 0.10.4 through 0.10.7 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash).
Multiple vulnerabilities in Konqueror in KDE 3.3.1 and earlier (1) allow access to restricted Java classes via JavaScript and (2) do not properly restrict access to certain Java classes from the Java applet, which allows remote attackers to bypass sandbox restrictions and read or write arbitrary files.
