CVE Database

The kernel for Microsoft Windows Server 2003 does not reset certain values in CPU data structures, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (system crash) via a malicious program.

"Shatter" style vulnerability in the Window Management application programming interface (API) for Microsoft Windows 98, Windows NT 4.0, Windows 2000, Windows XP, and Windows Server 2003 allows local users to gain privileges by using certain API functions to change properties of privileged programs using the SetWindowLong and SetWIndowLongPtr API functions.

The error handling in the (1) inflate and (2) inflateBack functions in ZLib compression library 1.2.x allows local users to cause a denial of service (application crash).

The FileStore capability in CGI::Session for Ruby before 1.8.1, and possibly PStore, creates files with insecure permissions, which can allow local users to steal session information and hijack sessions.

OpenOffice (OOo) 1.1.2 creates predictable directory names with insecure permissions during startup, which may allow local users to read or list files of other users.

The maketemp.pl script in Usermin 1.070 and 1.080 allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files at install time via a symlink attack on the /tmp/.usermin directory.

Opera allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (invalid memory reference and application crash) via a web page or HTML email that contains a TBODY tag with a large COL SPAN value, as demonstrated by mangleme.

Directory traversal vulnerability in the parsing of Skin file names in RealPlayer 10.5 (6.0.12.1040) and earlier allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files via a .. (dot dot) in an RJS filename.

gzip before 1.3 in Solaris 8, when called with the -f or -force flags, will change the permissions of files that are hard linked to the target files, which allows local users to view or modify these files.

Directory traversal vulnerability in RealPlayer 10.5 (6.0.12.1040) and earlier allows remote attackers to delete arbitrary files via a Real Metadata Packages (RMP) file with a FILENAME tag containing .. (dot dot) sequences in a filename that ends with a ? (question mark) and an allowed file extension (e.g. .mp3), which bypasses the check for the file extension.

sudoedit (aka sudo -e) in sudo 1.6.8 opens a temporary file with root privileges, which allows local users to read arbitrary files via a symlink attack on the temporary file before quitting sudoedit.

A race condition in crrtrap for QNX RTP 6.1 allows local users to gain privileges by modifying the PATH environment variable to reference a malicious io-graphics program before is executed by crrtrap.

Lexar Safe Guard for JumpDrive Secure 1.0 stores the password insecurely in memory using XOR encryption, which allows local users to read the password directly from the device and access the password protected part of the drive.

The (1) write_list and (2) dump_curr_list functions in Net-Acct before 0.71 allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on temporary files.

Certain "programming errors" in the msync system call for FreeBSD 5.2.1 and earlier, and 4.10 and earlier, do not properly handle the MS_INVALIDATE operation, which leads to cache consistency problems that allow a local user to prevent certain changes to files from being committed to disk.

A "potential" buffer overflow exists in the panic() function in Linux 2.4.x, although it may not be exploitable due to the functionality of panic.

Utempter allows device names that contain .. (dot dot) directory traversal sequences, which allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on device names in combination with an application that trusts the utmp or wtmp files.

Multiple vulnerabilities in Midnight Commander (mc) before 4.6.0, with unknown impact, related to "Insecure temporary file and directory creations."

msxlsview.sh in xlsview for catdoc 0.91 and earlier allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on predictable temporary file names ("word$$.html").

The ZwOpenSection function in Integrity Protection Driver (IPD) 1.4 and earlier allows local users to cause a denial of service (crash) via an invalid pointer in the "oa" argument.

Unknown vulnerability in HP Process Resource Manager (PRM) C.02.01[.01] and earlier, as used by HP-UX Workload Manager (WLM), allows local users to corrupt data files.

Unknown vulnerability in the Basic Security Module (BSM), when configured to audit either the Administrative (ad) or the System-Wide Administration (as) audit class in Solaris 7, 8, and 9, allows local users to cause a denial of service (kernel panic).

Solaris 9, when configured as a Kerberos client with patch 112908-12 or 115168-03 and using pam_krb5 as an "auth" module with the debug feature enabled, records passwords in plaintext, which could allow local users to gain other user's passwords by reading log files.

The Equalizer Load-balancer for serial network interfaces (eql.c) in Linux kernel 2.6.x up to 2.6.7 allows local users to cause a denial of service via a non-existent device name that triggers a null dereference.

Insecure permissions for the /proc/scsi/qla2300/HbaApiNode file in Linux allows local users to cause a denial of service.

Linux kernel 2.4.x and 2.6.x for x86 allows local users to cause a denial of service (system crash), possibly via an infinite loop that triggers a signal handler with a certain sequence of fsave and frstor instructions, as originally demonstrated using a "crash.c" program.

The e1000 driver for Linux kernel 2.4.26 and earlier does not properly initialize memory before using it, which allows local users to read portions of kernel memory. NOTE: this issue was originally incorrectly reported as a "buffer overflow" by some sources.

Unknown vulnerability in init for IRIX 6.5.20 through 6.5.24 allows local users to cause a denial of service (system panic) as a result of "page invalidation issues."

The mapelf32exec function call in IRIX 6.5.20 through 6.5.24 allows local users to cause a denial of service (system crash) via a "corrupted binary."

Datakey Rainbow iKey2032 USB token, when using the CIP client package, does not encrypt communications between the token and the driver, which could allow local users to obtain the PINs of other users.
