CVSS v3.1 |
| ypbind with -ypset and -ypsetme options activated in Linux Slackware and SunOS allows local and remote attackers to overwrite files via a .. (dot dot) attack. |
| During a reboot after an installation of Linux Slackware 3.6, a remote attacker can obtain root access by logging in to the root account without a password. |
| Buffer overflows in wuarchive ftpd (wu-ftpd) and ProFTPD lead to remote root access, a.k.a. palmetto. |
| 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 default configuration of Slackware 3.4, and possibly other versions, includes . (dot, the current directory) in the PATH environmental variable, which could allow local users to create Trojan horse programs that are inadvertently executed by other users. |
| Kernel logging daemon (klogd) in Linux does not properly cleanse user-injected format strings, which allows local users to gain root privileges by triggering malformed kernel messages. |
| CUPS before 1.1.19 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via a partial printing request to the IPP port (631), which does not time out. |
| rc.M in Slackware 9.0 calls quotacheck with the -M option, which causes the filesystem to be remounted and possibly reset security-relevant mount flags such as nosuid, nodev, and noexec. |
| Multiple vulnerabilities in Midnight Commander (mc) before 4.6.0, with unknown impact, related to "Insecure temporary file and directory creations." |
| traceroute in NetBSD 1.3.3 and Linux systems allows local users to flood other systems by providing traceroute with a large waittime (-w) option, which is not parsed properly and sets the time delay for sending packets to zero. |
| traceroute in NetBSD 1.3.3 and Linux systems allows local unprivileged users to modify the source address of the packets, which could be used in spoofing attacks. |
| getmail 4.x before 4.2.0, when run as root, allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on an mbox file. |
| getmail 4.x before 4.2.0, and other versions before 3.2.5, when run as root, allows local users to write files in arbitrary directories via a symlink attack on subdirectories in the maildir. |
| sort creates temporary files and follows symbolic links, which allows local users to modify arbitrary files that are writable by the user running sort, as observed in updatedb and other programs that use sort. |
| rcp on various Linux systems including Red Hat 4.0 allows a "nobody" user or other user with UID of 65535 to overwrite arbitrary files, since 65535 is interpreted as -1 by chown and other system calls, which causes the calls to fail to modify the ownership of the file. |
| Buffer overflow in TestChip function in XFree86 SuperProbe in Slackware Linux 3.1 allows local users to gain root privileges via a long -nopr argument. |
| Buffer overflow in telnet daemon tgetent routing allows remote attackers to gain root access via the TERMCAP environmental variable. |
| The PHP package in Slackware 8.1, 9.0, and 9.1, when linked against a static library, includes /tmp in the search path, which allows local users to execute arbitrary code as the PHP user by inserting shared libraries into the appropriate path. |
| Buffer overflow in the get_tag function in mod_include for Apache 1.3.x to 1.3.32 allows local users who can create SSI documents to execute arbitrary code as the apache user via SSI (XSSI) documents that trigger a length calculation error. |
| Remote attackers can access mail files via POP3 in some Linux systems that are using shadow passwords. |
