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 overflow in Solaris snoop program allows remote attackers to gain root privileges via a long domain name when snoop is running in verbose mode.
Buffer overflow in Solaris snoop allows remote attackers to gain root privileges via GETQUOTA requests to the rpc.rquotad service.
Buffer overflow in Solaris sadmind allows remote attackers to gain root privileges using a NETMGTPROCSERVICE request.
The prescan() function in the address parser (parseaddr.c) in Sendmail before 8.12.9 does not properly handle certain conversions from char and int types, which can cause a length check to be disabled when Sendmail misinterprets an input value as a special "NOCHAR" control value, allowing attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary code via a buffer overflow attack using messages, a different vulnerability than CVE-2002-1337.
Guessable magic cookies in X Windows allows remote attackers to execute commands, e.g. through xterm.
Automount daemon automountd allows local or remote users to gain privileges via shell metacharacters.
Buffer overflow in statd allows root privileges.
Buffer overflow of rlogin program using TERM environmental variable.
Buffer overflow in the calltrans2open function in trans2.c for Samba 2.2.x before 2.2.8a, 2.0.10 and earlier 2.0.x versions, and Samba-TNG before 0.3.2, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code.
Multiple buffer overflows in Samba before 2.2.8a may allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service, as discovered by the Samba team and a different vulnerability than CVE-2003-0201.
The AIX FTP client can be forced to execute commands from a malicious server through shell metacharacters (e.g. a pipe character).
Inverse query buffer overflow in BIND 4.9 and BIND 8 Releases.
Unknown vulnerability in the AUTHDES authentication for RPC in Solaris 2.5.1, 2.6, and 7, SGI IRIX 6.5 to 6.5.19f, and possibly other platforms, allows remote attackers to gain privileges.
Heap-based buffer overflow in cfsdcalloc function of Solaris cachefsd allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a request with a long directory and cache name.
Buffer overflow in nlpsserver in Sun Solaris x86 2.4, 2.5, and 2.5.1 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code as root via a long string beginning with "NLPS:002:002:" to the listen (aka System V listener) port, TCP port 2766.
SunOS rpc.cmsd allows attackers to obtain root access by overwriting arbitrary files.
Buffer overflow in xlock program allows local users to execute commands as root.
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.
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.
The ToolTalk ttsession daemon uses weak RPC authentication, which allows a remote attacker to execute commands.
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.
niscachemgr for Solaris NIS+ allows attackers to add malicious NIS+ servers.
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.
Solaris rpcbind listens on a high numbered UDP port, which may not be filtered since the standard port number is 111.
Flaw bug created to hold information about an old flaw we knew something about. For more details see the MITRE CVE description.
Multiple buffer overflows in how dtmail handles attachments allows a remote attacker to execute commands.
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 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.
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.
