CVE Database

The tsearch2 module in PostgreSQL 7.4 through 8.0.x declares the (1) dex_init, (2) snb_en_init, (3) snb_ru_init, (4) spell_init, and (5) syn_init functions as "internal" even when they do not take an internal argument, which allows attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) and possibly have other impacts via SQL commands that call other functions that accept internal arguments.

HTTP response splitting vulnerability in the @SetHTTPHeader function in Lotus Domino 6.5.x before 6.5.4 and 6.0.x before 6.0.5 allows attackers to poison the web cache via malicious applications.

Race condition in Ce/Ceterm (aka ARPUS/Ce) 2.5.4 and earlier allows local users to write to arbitrary files via a symlink attack on the ce_edit_log temporary file.

Safari 1.3 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a long https URL that triggers a NULL pointer dereference.

The (1) it87 and (2) via686a drivers in I2C for Linux 2.6.x before 2.6.11.8, and 2.6.12 before 2.6.12-rc2, create the sysfs "alarms" file with write permissions, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) by attempting to write to the file, which does not have an associated store function.

The key_user_lookup function in security/keys/key.c in Linux kernel 2.6.10 to 2.6.11.8 may allow attackers to cause a denial of service (oops) via SMP.

** UNVERIFIABLE ** NOTE: this issue describes a problem that can not be independently verified as of 20050421. Adobe Acrobat reader (AcroRd32.exe) 6.0 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service ("Invalid-ID-Handle-Error" error) and modify memory beginning at a particular address, possibly allowing the execution of arbitrary code, via a crafted PDF file. NOTE: the vendor has stated that the reporter refused to provide sufficient details to confirm the issue. In addition, due to the lack of details in the original advisory, an independent verification is not possible. Finally, the reliability of the original reporter is unknown. This item has only been assigned a CVE identifier for tracking purposes, and to serve as a concrete example of the newly defined UNVERIFIABLE and PRERELEASE content decisions in CVE, which must be discussed by the Editorial Board. Without additional details or independent verification by reliable sources, it is highly likely that this item will be REJECTED.

Multiple Symantec AntiVirus products, including Norton AntiVirus 2005 11.0.0, Web Security Web Security 3.0.1.72, Mail Security for SMTP 4.0.5.66, AntiVirus Scan Engine 4.3.7.27, SAV/Filter for Domino NT 3.1.1.87, and Mail Security for Exchange 4.5.4.743, when running on Windows, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (component crash) and avoid detection via a crafted RAR file.

Unquoted Windows search path vulnerability in BitDefender 8 allows local users to prevent BitDefender from starting by creating a malicious C:\program.exe, possibly due to the lack of quoting of the full pathname when executing a process.

Race condition in JFS2 on AIX 5.2 and 5.3, when deleting a file while I/O is still occurring for that file, may write data to a different file, which could leak sensitive information.

Musicmatch 10.00.2047 and earlier store log files in the Program Files directory instead of the user profile, which may allow local users to obtain sensitive information.

The DNTUS26 process in Dameware NT Utilities and the DWRCS process in MiniRemote Control 4.9 and earlier stores the username and password in cleartext in memory, which could allow attackers to obtain sensitive information.

eGroupWare 1.0.6 and earlier, when an e-mail is composed with an attachment but not sent, will send that attachment in the next e-mail, which may cause sensitive information to be sent to the wrong recipient.

Sudo VISudo 1.6.8 and earlier allows local users to corrupt arbitrary files via a symlink attack on temporary files.

GetDataBack for NTFS 2.31 stores the username and license key in plaintext in the Name value in the License registry key, which may allow local users to obtain sensitive information.

Race condition in rpdump in Pine 4.62 and earlier allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack.

tetex in Novell Linux Desktop 9 allows local users to determine the existence of arbitrary files via a symlink attack in the /var/cache/fonts directory.

Linksys WET11 1.5.4 allows remote attackers to change the password without providing the original password via the data parameter to changepw.html.

Multiple cross-site scripting vulnerabilities in PostNuke 0.760-RC3 allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the (1) module parameter to admin.php or (2) op parameter to user.php. NOTE: the vendor reports that certain issues could not be reproduced for 760 RC3, or for .750. However, the op/user.php issue exists when the pnAntiCracker setting is disabled.

The fib_seq_start function in fib_hash.c in Linux kernel allows local users to cause a denial of service (system crash) via /proc/net/route.

Race condition in Core Utilities (coreutils) 5.2.1, when (1) mkdir, (2) mknod, or (3) mkfifo is running with the -m switch, allows local users to modify permissions of other files.

crontab in Vixie cron 4.1, when running with the -e option, allows local users to read the cron files of other users by changing the file being edited to a symlink. NOTE: there is insufficient information to know whether this is a duplicate of CVE-2001-0235.

RC.BOOT in IBM AIX 5.1, 5.2, and 5.3 does not "use a secure location for temporary files," which allows local users to have an unknown impact, probably by overwriting files.

unshar (unshar.c) in sharutils 4.2.1 allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on the unsh.X temporary file.

Race condition in gzip 1.2.4, 1.3.3, and earlier, when decompressing a gzipped file, allows local users to modify permissions of arbitrary files via a hard link attack on a file while it is being decompressed, whose permissions are changed by gzip after the decompression is complete.

The shmem_nopage function in shmem.c for the tmpfs driver in Linux kernel 2.6 does not properly verify the address argument, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (kernel crash) via an invalid address.

Integer signedness error in the parse_machfile function in the mach-o loader (mach_loader.c) for the Darwin Kernel as used in Mac OS X 10.3.7, and other versions before 10.3.9, allows local users to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) via a crafted mach-o header.

An error in the Toshiba ACPI BIOS 1.6 causes the BIOS to only examine the first slot in the Master Boot Record (MBR) table for an active partition, which prevents the system from booting even though the MBR is not malformed. NOTE: it has been debated as to whether or not this issue poses a security vulnerability, since administrative privileges would be required, and other DoS attacks are possible with such privileges.

Race condition in bzip2 1.0.2 and earlier allows local users to modify permissions of arbitrary files via a hard link attack on a file while it is being decompressed, whose permissions are changed by bzip2 after the decompression is complete.

The SmartScan feature in the Auto-Protect module for Symantec Norton AntiVirus 2004 and 2005, as also used in Internet Security 2004/2005 and System Works 2004/2005, allows attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption and system crash) by renaming a file on a network share.
