Buffer overflows in BSD-based FTP servers allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via a long pattern string containing a {} sequence, as seen in (1) gopendir, (2) glstat, (3) gstat, and (4) the glob0 buffer as used in the glob functions glob2 and glob3.

Buffer overflow in FTP server in HPUX 11 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands by creating a long pathname and calling the STAT command, which uses glob to generate long strings.

Heap overflow in FTP daemon in Solaris 8 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands by creating a long pathname and calling the LIST command, which uses glob to generate long strings.

Buffer overflows in lpsched in IRIX 6.5.13f and earlier allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via a long argument.

lpsched in IRIX 6.5.13f and earlier allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via shell metacharacters.

Buffer overflow in login in various System V based operating systems allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via a large number of arguments through services such as telnet and rlogin.

Buffer overflow in BSD-based telnetd telnet daemon on various operating systems allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via a set of options including AYT (Are You There), which is not properly handled by the telrcv function.

The line printer daemon (lpd) in the lpr package in multiple Linux operating systems authenticates by comparing the reverse-resolved hostname of the local machine to the hostname of the print server as returned by gethostname, which allows remote attackers to bypass intended access controls by modifying the DNS for the attacking IP.

The line printer daemon (lpd) in the lpr package in multiple Linux operating systems allows local users to gain root privileges by causing sendmail to execute with arbitrary command line arguments, as demonstrated using the -C option to specify a configuration file.

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.

The truncate function in IRIX 6.x does not properly check for privileges when the file is in the xfs file system, which allows local users to delete the contents of arbitrary files.

Telnetd telnet server in IRIX 5.2 through 6.1 does not properly cleans user-injected format strings, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via a long RLD variable in the IAC-SB-TELOPTENVIRON request.

Vulnerability in SGI IRIX objectserver daemon allows remote attackers to create user accounts.

Vulnerability in object server program in SGI IRIX 5.2 through 6.1 allows remote attackers to gain root privileges in certain configurations.

Unknown vulnerability in the IPv6 capability in IRIX 6.5.19 causes snoop to process packets as the root user, with unknown implications.

Xpdf, as used in products such as gpdf, kpdf, pdftohtml, poppler, teTeX, CUPS, libextractor, and others, allows attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop) via streams that end prematurely, as demonstrated using the (1) CCITTFaxDecode and (2) DCTDecode streams, aka "Infinite CPU spins."

SGI IRIX midikeys program allows local users to modify arbitrary files via a text editor.

The default configuration of the Array Services daemon (arrayd) disables authentication, allowing remote users to gain root privileges.

Versions of rpcbind including Linux, IRIX, and Wietse Venema's rpcbind allow a remote attacker to insert and delete entries by spoofing a source address.

Guessable magic cookies in X Windows allows remote attackers to execute commands, e.g. through xterm.

rpc.ypupdated (NIS) allows remote users to execute arbitrary commands.

The prescan function in Sendmail 8.12.9 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via buffer overflow attacks, as demonstrated using the parseaddr function in parseaddr.c.

Buffer overflow in statd allows root privileges.

Telnet allows a remote client to specify environment variables including LDLIBRARYPATH, allowing an attacker to bypass the normal system libraries and gain root access.

Execute commands as root via buffer overflow in Tooltalk database server (rpc.ttdbserverd).

Inverse query buffer overflow in BIND 4.9 and BIND 8 Releases.

Heap-based buffer overflow in the name services daemon (nsd) in SGI IRIX 6.5.x through 6.5.21f, and possibly earlier versions, allows attackers to gain root privileges via the AUTHUNIX gid list.

Unknown vulnerability in the AUTHDES authentication for RPC in Solaris 2.5.1, 2.6, and 7, SGI IRIX 6.5 to 6.5.19f, and possibly other platforms, allows remote attackers to gain privileges.

Buffer overflow in Sendmail 5.79 to 8.12.7 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via certain formatted address fields, related to sender and recipient header comments as processed by the crackaddr function of headers.c.

Buffer overflow in samba 2.2.2 through 2.2.6 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary code via an encrypted password that causes the overflow during decryption in which a DOS codepage string is converted to a little-endian UCS2 unicode string.
