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.
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 BSD-based telnetd telnet daemon on various operating systems allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via a set of options including AYT (Are You There), which is not properly handled by the telrcv function.
Heap overflow in FTP daemon in Solaris 8 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands by creating a long pathname and calling the LIST command, which uses glob to generate long strings.
Some functions that implement the locale subsystem on Unix do not properly cleanse user-injected format strings, which allows local attackers to execute arbitrary commands via functions such as gettext and catopen.
Buffer overflow in Solaris sadmind allows remote attackers to gain root privileges using a NETMGTPROCSERVICE request.
Buffer overflow in Solaris snoop allows remote attackers to gain root privileges via GETQUOTA requests to the rpc.rquotad service.
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 CDE Calendar Manager Service Daemon (rpc.cmsd).
libnsl in Solaris allowed an attacker to perform a denial of service of rpcbind.
Buffer overflow in NIS+, in Sun's rpc.nisd program.
Inverse query buffer overflow in BIND 4.9 and BIND 8 Releases.
Execute commands as root via buffer overflow in Tooltalk database server (rpc.ttdbserverd).
SunOS rpc.cmsd allows attackers to obtain root access by overwriting arbitrary files.
Buffer overflow in statd allows root privileges.
Automount daemon automountd allows local or remote users to gain privileges via shell metacharacters.
The AIX FTP client can be forced to execute commands from a malicious server through shell metacharacters (e.g. a pipe character).
Buffer overflow of rlogin program using TERM environmental variable.
