The libXm library in LessTif 0.95.0 and earlier allows local users to gain privileges via the DEBUGFILE environment variable, which is used to create world-writable files when libXm is run from a setuid program.

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 libXpm for 6.8.1 and earlier, as used in XFree86 and other packages, include (1) multiple integer overflows, (2) out-of-bounds memory accesses, (3) directory traversal, (4) shell metacharacter, (5) endless loops, and (6) memory leaks, which could allow remote attackers to obtain sensitive information, cause a denial of service (application crash), or execute arbitrary code via a certain XPM image file. NOTE: it is highly likely that this candidate will be SPLIT into other candidates in the future, per CVE's content decisions.
