Unknown vulnerability in the libraries for the PGX32 frame buffer in Solaris 2.5.1 and 2.6 through 9 allows local users to gain root access.
Stack-based buffer overflow in the bsdqueue() function for lpq on Solaris 2.6 and 7 allows local users to gain root privilege.
Heap-based buffer overflow in dtsession for Solaris 2.5.1 through Solaris 9 allows local users to gain root privileges via a long HOME environment variable.
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.
Flaw bug created to hold information about an old flaw we knew something about. For more details see the MITRE CVE description.
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.
pkgadd in Sun Solaris 2.5.1 through 8 installs files setuid/setgid root if the pkgmap file contains a "?" (question mark) in the (1) mode, (2) owner, or (3) group fields, which allows attackers to elevate privileges.
Buffer overflow in Solaris chkperm command allows local users to gain root access via a long -n option.
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 overflow in /usr/bin/write in Solaris 2.6 and 7 allows local users to gain privileges via a long string in the terminal name argument.
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 eeprom in Solaris 2.5.1 and earlier allows local users to gain root privileges via a long command line argument.
Buffer overflow in (1) pluggable authentication module (PAM) on Solaris 2.5.1 and 2.5 and (2) unixscheme in Solaris 2.4 and 2.3 allows local users to gain root privileges via programs that use these modules such as passwd, yppasswd, and nispasswd.
The CDE dtspcd daemon allows local users to execute arbitrary commands via a symlink attack.
Buffer overflow in the AddSuLog function of the CDE dtaction utility allows local users to gain root privileges via a long user name.
The ToolTalk ttsession daemon uses weak RPC authentication, which allows a remote attacker to execute commands.
The BSD profil system call allows a local user to modify the internal data space of a program via profiling and execve.
A Unix account has a default, null, blank, or missing password.
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 Sun sdtcmconvert calendar utility for OpenWindows has a buffer overflow which can gain root access.
Buffer overflow in the libauth library in Solaris allows local users to gain additional privileges, possibly root access.
Buffer overflow in Solaris fdformat command gives root access to local users.
Buffer overflow in xmcd 2.0p12 allows local users to gain access through an environmental variable.
SunOS/Solaris FTP clients can be forced to execute arbitrary commands from a malicious FTP server.
niscachemgr for Solaris NIS+ allows attackers to add malicious NIS+ servers.
Buffer overflow in SunOS/Solaris ps command.
Solaris sysdef command allows local users to read kernel memory, potentially leading to root privileges.
Solaris rpcbind can be exploited to overwrite arbitrary files and gain root access.
Solaris rpcbind listens on a high numbered UDP port, which may not be filtered since the standard port number is 111.
The passwd command in Solaris can be subjected to a denial of service.
