Buffer Overflow
CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H

Input Validation, Integer Overflow
CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H

Improper input validation together with an integer overflow in the EAP-TLS protocol implementation in PPPD may cause a crash, information disclosure, or authentication bypass. This implementation is distributed as a patch for PPPD 0.91, and includes the affected eap.c and eap-tls.c files. Configurations that use the refuse-app option are unaffected.

Buffer Overflow
AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P

Buffer overflow in the rcmksid function in plugins/radius/util.c in Paul's PPP Package (ppp) 2.4.6 and earlier, when the PID for pppd is greater than 65535, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a start accounting message to the RADIUS server.

Buffer Overflow, Integer Overflow
AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P

Integer overflow in the getword function in options.c in pppd in Paul's PPP Package (ppp) before 2.4.7 allows attackers to "access privileged options" via a long word in an options file, which triggers a heap-based buffer overflow that "[corrupts] security-relevant variables."

AV:L/AC:L/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C

The winbind plugin in pppd for ppp 2.4.4 and earlier does not check the return code from the setuid function call, which might allow local users to gain privileges by causing setuid to fail, such as exceeding PAM limits for the maximum number of user processes, which prevents the winbind NTLM authentication helper from dropping privileges.

SQL Injection
AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P

SQL injection vulnerability in the Authorize.net callback code (subscriptions/authorize.php) in Jelsoft vBulletin 3.0 through 3.0.3 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary SQL statements via the xinvoicenum parameter. NOTE: this issue might be related to CVE-2006-4267.

Integer Underflow
AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P

Integer underflow in pppd in cbcp.c for ppp 2.4.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (daemon crash) via a CBCP packet with an invalid length value that causes pppd to access an incorrect memory location.
