Buffer overflow in fdmount on Linux systems allows local users in the "floppy" group to execute arbitrary commands via a long mountpoint parameter.
The SuSE aaabase package installs some system accounts with home directories set to /tmp, which allows local users to gain privileges to those accounts by creating standard user startup scripts such as profiles.
Buffer overflows in Linux cdwtools 093 and earlier allows local users to gain root privileges.
Linux cdwtools 093 and earlier allows local users to gain root privileges via the /tmp directory.
aaabase in SuSE Linux 6.3, and cron.daily in earlier versions, allow local users to delete arbitrary files by creating files whose names include spaces, which are then incorrectly interpreted by aaabase when it deletes expired files from the /tmp directory.
Linux kreatecd trusts a user-supplied path that is used to find the cdrecord program, allowing local users to gain root privileges.
gpm-root in the gpm package does not properly drop privileges, which allows local users to gain privileges by starting a utility from gpm-root.
Denial of service in Linux 2.2.x kernels via malformed ICMP packets containing unusual types, codes, and IP header lengths.
Buffer overflow in Vixie Cron on Red Hat systems via the MAILTO environmental variable.
A default configuration of in.identd in SuSE Linux waits 120 seconds between requests, allowing a remote attacker to conduct a denial of service.
XFree86 startx command is vulnerable to a symlink attack, allowing local users to create files in restricted directories, possibly allowing them to gain privileges or cause a denial of service.
A buffer overflow in lsof allows local users to obtain root privilege.
in.identd ident server in SuSE Linux 6.x and 7.0 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via a long request, which causes the server to access a NULL pointer and crash.
The default configuration of Apache 1.3.12 in SuSE Linux 6.4 enables WebDAV, which allows remote attackers to list arbitrary directories via the PROPFIND HTTP request method.
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.
String parsing error in rpc.kstatd in the linuxnfs or knfsd packages in SuSE and possibly other Linux systems allows remote attackers to gain root privileges.
Buffer overflow in Linux xinetd 2.1.8.9pre11-1 and earlier may allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long ident response, which is not properly handled by the svclogprint function.
Buffer overflow in man program in various distributions of Linux allows local user to execute arbitrary code as group man via a long -S option.
time server daemon timed allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via malformed packets.
kdesu program in KDE2 (KDE before 2.2.0-6) does not properly verify the owner of a UNIX socket that is used to send a password, which allows local users to steal passwords and gain privileges.
rctab in SuSE 7.0 and earlier allows local users to create or overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on the rctmp temporary file.
Opera 7.54 and earlier uses kfmclient exec to handle unknown MIME types, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a shortcut or launcher that contains an Exec entry.
The EPSF pipe support in enscript 1.6.3 allows remote attackers or local users to execute arbitrary commands via shell metacharacters.
exif.c in PHP before 4.3.11 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption and crash) via an EXIF header with a large IFD nesting level, which causes significant stack recursion.
xloadimage before 4.1-r2, and xli before 1.17, allows attackers to execute arbitrary commands via shell metacharacters in filenames for compressed images, which are not properly quoted when calling the gunzip command.
scan.c for LibXPM may allow attackers to execute arbitrary code via a negative bitmapunit value that leads to a buffer overflow.
Multiple vulnerabilities in xli before 1.17 may allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via "buffer management errors" from certain image properties, some of which may be related to integer overflows in PPM files.
The patch for integer overflow vulnerabilities in Xpdf 2.0 and 3.0 (CVE-2004-0888) is incomplete for 64-bit architectures on certain Linux distributions such as Red Hat, which could leave Xpdf users exposed to the original vulnerabilities.
