IBM Informix Dynamic Server 14.10, and 15.0 contain a local privilege escalation vulnerability in the oninit setuid-root utility.

IBM Informix could allow an unauthenticated user to execute arbitrary commands with service account privileges on the system due to improper validation of user supplied input.

A flaw was found in rsync. When using the --safe-links option, rsync fails to properly verify if a symbolic link destination contains another symbolic link within it. This results in a path traversal vulnerability, which may lead to arbitrary file write outside the desired directory.

A heap-based buffer overflow flaw was found in the rsync daemon. This issue is due to improper handling of attacker-controlled checksum lengths (s2length) in the code. When MAXDIGESTLEN exceeds the fixed SUMLENGTH (16 bytes), an attacker can write out of bounds in the sum2 buffer.

Untrusted search path vulnerability in the wrapper scripts for the (1) rug, (2) zen-updater, (3) zen-installer, and (4) zen-remover programs on SUSE Linux 10.1 and Enterprise 10 allows local users to gain privileges via modified (a) LDLIBRARYPATH and (b) MONOGACPREFIX environment variables.

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.

The Zend Engine in PHP 4.x before 4.4.7, and 5.x before 5.2.2, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (stack exhaustion and PHP crash) via deeply nested arrays, which trigger deep recursion in the variable destruction routines.

OpenSSH portable 4.1 on SUSE Linux, and possibly other platforms and versions, and possibly under limited configurations, allows remote attackers to determine valid usernames via timing discrepancies in which responses take longer for valid usernames than invalid ones, as demonstrated by sshtime. NOTE: as of 20061014, it appears that this issue is dependent on the use of manually-set passwords that causes delays when processing /etc/shadow due to an increased number of rounds.

The signature verification functionality in the YaST Online Update (YOU) script handling relies on a gpg feature that is not intended for signature verification, which prevents YOU from detecting malicious scripts or code that do not pass the signature check when gpg 1.4.x is being used.

Multiple untrusted search path vulnerabilities in SUSE Linux 10.0 cause the working directory to be added to LDLIBRARYPATH, which might allow local users to execute arbitrary code via (1) liferea or (2) banshee.

Multiple untrusted search path vulnerabilities in SUSE Linux 9.3 and 10.0, and possibly other distributions, cause the working directory to be added to LDLIBRARYPATH, which might allow local users to execute arbitrary code via (1) beagle, (2) tomboy, or (3) blam. NOTE: in August 2007, the tomboy vector was reported for other distributions.

chkstat in SuSE Linux 9.0 through 10.0 allows local users to modify permissions of files by creating a hardlink to a file from a world-writable directory, which can cause the link count to drop to 1 when the file is deleted or replaced, which is then modified by chkstat to use weaker permissions.
