Unspecified vulnerability in xscreensaver 4.12, and possibly other versions, allows attackers to cause xscreensaver to crash via unspecified vectors "while verifying the user-password."
resmgr in SUSE CORE 9 does not properly identify terminal names, which allows local users to spoof terminals and login types.
Multiple scripts on SuSE Linux 9.0 allow local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on (1) /tmp/fvwm-bug created by fvwm-bug, (2) /tmp/wmmenu created by wm-oldmenu2new, (3) /tmp/rates created by x11perfcomp, (4) /tmp/xf86debug.1.log created by xf86debug, (5) /tmp/.winpopup-new created by winpopup-send.sh, or (6) /tmp/initrd created by lvmcreateinitrd.
YaST Online Update (YOU) in SuSE 8.2 and 9.0 allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on you-$USER/cookies.
Unknown vulnerability in the system call filtering code in the audit subsystem for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3 allows local users to cause a denial of service (system crash) via unknown vectors.
SUSE Linux before 9.1 and SUSE Linux Enterprise Server before 9 do not properly check commands sent to CD devices that have been opened read-only, which could allow local users to conduct unauthorized write activities to modify the firmware of associated SCSI devices.
The openexec function in the execve functionality (exec.c) in Linux kernel 2.4.x up to 2.4.27, and 2.6.x up to 2.6.8, allows local users to read non-readable ELF binaries by using the interpreter (PTINTERP) functionality.
The binfmt functionality in the Linux kernel, when "memory overcommit" is enabled, allows local users to cause a denial of service (kernel oops) via a malformed a.out binary.
Linux kernel 2.4.x and 2.6.x for x86 allows local users to cause a denial of service (system crash), possibly via an infinite loop that triggers a signal handler with a certain sequence of fsave and frstor instructions, as originally demonstrated using a "crash.c" program.
Insecure permissions for the /proc/scsi/qla2300/HbaApiNode file in Linux allows local users to cause a denial of service.
The e1000 driver for Linux kernel 2.4.26 and earlier does not properly initialize memory before using it, which allows local users to read portions of kernel memory. NOTE: this issue was originally incorrectly reported as a "buffer overflow" by some sources.
Unknown vulnerability in Linux kernel 2.x may allow local users to modify the group ID of files, such as NFS exported files in kernel 2.4.
The SuSEconfig.gnome-filesystem script for YaST in SuSE 9.0 allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on files within the tmp.SuSEconfig.gnome-filesystem.$RANDOM temporary directory.
Linux kernel 2.6 and 2.4 on the IA64 architecture allows local users to cause a denial of service (kernel crash) via ptrace and the restoresigcontext function.
traps.c in the Linux kernel 2.6.x and 2.4.x executes stack segment faults on an exception stack, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (oops and stack fault exception).
Unknown vulnerability in Linux kernel 2.4.x, 2.5.x, and 2.6.x allows NFS clients to cause a denial of service via ODIRECT.
Buffer overflow in the PerlIO implementation in Perl 5.8.0, when installed with setuid support (sperl), allows local users to execute arbitrary code by setting the PERLIODEBUG variable and executing a Perl script whose full pathname contains a long directory tree.
Unspecified vulnerability in a "core clean" cron job created by the findutils-locate package on SUSE Linux 10.0 and 10.1 and Enterprise Server 9 and 10 before 20070810 allows local users to delete of arbitrary files via unknown vectors.
