Flaw bug created to hold information about an old flaw we knew something about. For more details see the MITRE CVE description.

The dtterm terminal emulator allows attackers to modify the window title via a certain character escape sequence and then insert it back to the command line in the user's terminal, e.g. when the user views a file containing the malicious sequence, which could allow the attacker to execute arbitrary commands.

Buffer overflow in Volume Manager daemon (vold) of Sun Solaris 2.5.1 through 8 allows local users to execute arbitrary code via unknown attack vectors.

Buffer overflow in Dispatch() routine for XFS font server (fs.auto) on Solaris 2.5.1 through 9 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) or execute arbitrary code via a certain XFS query.

FreeBSD 4.5 and earlier, and possibly other BSD-based operating systems, allows local users to write to or read from restricted files by closing the file descriptors 0 (standard input), 1 (standard output), or 2 (standard error), which may then be reused by a called setuid process that intended to perform I/O on normal files.

The Basic Security Module (BSM) for Solaris 2.5.1, 2.6, 7, and 8 does not log anonymous FTP access, which allows remote attackers to hide their activities, possibly when certain BSM audit files are not present under the FTP root.

Buffer overflow in whodo in Solaris SunOS 5.5.1 through 5.8 allows local users to execute arbitrary code via a long (1) SOR or (2) CFIME environment variable.

Buffer overflow in arp command in Solaris 7 and earlier allows local users to execute arbitrary commands via a long -f parameter.

Buffer overflow in ufsrestore in Solaris 8 and earlier allows local users to gain root privileges via a long pathname.

Buffer overflow in Solaris chkperm command allows local users to gain root access via a long -n option.

The CDE dtspcd daemon allows local users to execute arbitrary commands via a symlink attack.

The ToolTalk ttsession daemon uses weak RPC authentication, which allows a remote attacker to execute commands.

Buffer overflow in the AddSuLog function of the CDE dtaction utility allows local users to gain root privileges via a long user name.

rpc.statd allows remote attackers to forward RPC calls to the local operating system via the SMMON and SMNOTIFY commands, which in turn could be used to remotely exploit other bugs such as in automountd.

The passwd command in Solaris can be subjected to a denial of service.

Buffer overflow in Solaris x86 mkcookie allows local users to obtain root access.

Multiple buffer overflows in how dtmail handles attachments allows a remote attacker to execute commands.

Buffer overflow in the libauth library in Solaris allows local users to gain additional privileges, possibly root access.

Power management (Powermanagement) on Solaris 2.4 through 2.6 does not start the xlock process until after the sys-suspend has completed, which allows an attacker with physical access to input characters to the last active application from the keyboard for a short period after the system is restoring, which could lead to increased privileges.

Buffer overflows in Sun libnsl allow root access.

Solaris rpcbind can be exploited to overwrite arbitrary files and gain root access.

niscachemgr for Solaris NIS+ allows attackers to add malicious NIS+ servers.

Solaris sysdef command allows local users to read kernel memory, potentially leading to root privileges.

In SunOS or Solaris, a remote user could connect from an FTP server's data port to an rlogin server on a host that trusts the FTP server, allowing remote command execution.

Buffer overflow in SunOS/Solaris ps command.

Solaris rpcbind listens on a high numbered UDP port, which may not be filtered since the standard port number is 111.

Buffer overflow in chkey in Solaris 2.5.1 and earlier allows local users to gain root privileges via a long command line argument.

Buffer overflow in Xt library of X Windowing System allows local users to execute commands with root privileges.

Buffer overflow in xlock program allows local users to execute commands as root.

Buffer overflow in Solaris fdformat command gives root access to local users.
