VERITAS File System (VxFS) 3.3.3, 3.4, and 3.5 before MP1 Rolling Patch 02 for Sun Solaris 2.5.1 through 9 does not properly implement inheritance of default ACLs in certain circumstances related to the characteristics of a directory inode, which allows local users to bypass intended file permissions by accessing a file on a VxFS filesystem.
Directory traversal vulnerability in printd line printer daemon (lpd) in Solaris 7 through 10 allows remote attackers to delete arbitrary files via ".." sequences in an "Unlink data file" command.
Unknown vulnerability in NIS+ on Solaris 7, 8, and 9 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (rpc.nisd disabled and NIS+ unavailable) via unknown vectors.
Hyper-Threading technology, as used in FreeBSD and other operating systems that are run on Intel Pentium and other processors, allows local users to use a malicious thread to create covert channels, monitor the execution of other threads, and obtain sensitive information such as cryptographic keys, via a timing attack on memory cache misses.
Sun Solaris 7 through 9, when Basic Security Module (BSM) is enabled and the SUNWscpu package has been removed as a result of security hardening, disables mail alerts from the auditwarn script, which might allow attackers to escape detection.
X Display Manager (XDM) on Solaris 8 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (XDM crash) via an invalid X Display Manager Control Protocol (XDMCP) request.
Multiple buffer overflows in uucp for Sun Solaris 2.6, 7, 8, and 9 allow local users to execute arbitrary code as the uucp user.
Buffer overflow in the syslog daemon for Solaris 2.6 through 9 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (syslogd crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via long syslog UDP packets.
ISC BIND 8.3.x before 8.3.7, and 8.4.x before 8.4.3, allows remote attackers to poison the cache via a malicious name server that returns negative responses with a large TTL (time-to-live) value.
The NFS Server for Solaris 7, 8, and 9 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (UFS panic) via certain invalid UFS requests, which triggers a null dereference.
Unknown vulnerability in the sysinfo system call for Solaris for SPARC 2.6 through 9, and Solaris for x86 2.6, 7, and 8, allows local users to read kernel memory.
The Telnet daemon (in.telnetd) for Solaris 2.6 through 9 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption by infinite loop).
Unknown vulnerability in rpcbind for Solaris 2.6 through 9 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (rpcbind crash).
Unknown vulnerability in UDP RPC for Solaris 2.5.1 through 9 for SPARC, and 2.5.1 through 8 for x86, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via certain arguments in RPC calls that cause large amounts of memory to be allocated.
Directory traversal vulnerability in Sun Kodak Color Management System (KCMS) library service daemon (kcmsserver) allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files via the KCSOPENPROFILE procedure.
Unknown vulnerability in the FTP server (in.ftpd) for Solaris 2.6 through 9 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (temporary FTP server hang), which affects other active mode FTP clients.
Unknown vulnerability in the System Serial Console terminal in Solaris 2.5.1, 2.6, and 7 allows local users to monitor keystrokes and possibly steal sensitive information.
Directory traversal vulnerabilities in multiple FTP clients on UNIX systems allow remote malicious FTP servers to create or overwrite files as the client user via filenames containing /absolute/path or .. (dot dot) sequences.
Unknown vulnerability in NFS on Solaris 2.5.1 through Solaris 9 allows an NFS client to cause a denial of service by killing the lockd daemon.
Buffer overflow in mailx in Solaris 8 and earlier allows a local attacker to gain additional privileges via a long '-F' command line option.
kcmsconfigure as included with Solaris 7 and 8 allows a local attacker to gain additional privileges via a buffer overflow in a command line argument.
Solaris dmispd dmicmd allows local users to fill up restricted disk space by adding files to the /var/dmi/db database.
Denial of service in BIND named via consuming more than "fdmax" file descriptors.
Denial of service in Solaris TCP streams driver via a malicious connection that causes the server to panic as a result of recursive calls to mutexenter.
Buffer overflow in mail command in Solaris 2.7 and 2.7 allows local users to gain privileges via a long -m argument.
In Sun Solaris and SunOS, man and catman contain vulnerabilities that allow overwriting arbitrary files.
