CVSS v3.1 |
| Guessable magic cookies in X Windows allows remote attackers to execute commands, e.g. through xterm. |
| Multiple vulnerabilities in libXpm for 6.8.1 and earlier, as used in XFree86 and other packages, include (1) multiple integer overflows, (2) out-of-bounds memory accesses, (3) directory traversal, (4) shell metacharacter, (5) endless loops, and (6) memory leaks, which could allow remote attackers to obtain sensitive information, cause a denial of service (application crash), or execute arbitrary code via a certain XPM image file. NOTE: it is highly likely that this candidate will be SPLIT into other candidates in the future, per CVE's content decisions. |
| Buffer overflow in XFree86 3.3.x allows local users to execute arbitrary commands via a long -xkbmap parameter. |
| Multiple integer overflows in XFree86 before 4.3.0 allow user-assisted attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted pixmap image. |
| Buffer overflow in fbglyph.c in XFree86 before 4.2.0, related to glyph clipping for large origins, allows attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly gain privileges via a large number of characters, possibly through the web page search form of KDE Konqueror or from an xterm command with a long title. |
| XDM in XFree86 3.3 and 3.3.3 generates easily guessable cookies using gettimeofday() when compiled with the HasXdmXauth option, which allows remote attackers to gain unauthorized access to the X display via a brute force attack. |
| The xterm terminal emulator in XFree86 4.2.0 and earlier allows attackers to modify the window title via a certain character escape sequence and then insert it back to the command line in the user's terminal, e.g. when the user views a file containing the malicious sequence, which could allow the attacker to execute arbitrary commands. |
| The DEC UDK processing feature in the xterm terminal emulator in XFree86 4.2.99.4 and earlier allows attackers to cause a denial of service via a certain character escape sequence that causes the terminal to enter a tight loop. |
| XFree86 startx command is vulnerable to a symlink attack, allowing local users to create files in restricted directories, possibly allowing them to gain privileges or cause a denial of service. |
| XDM in XFree86 opens a chooserFd TCP socket even when DisplayManager.requestPort is 0, which could allow remote attackers to connect to the port, in violation of the intended restrictions. |
| Multiple stack-based buffer overflows in (1) xpmParseColors in parse.c, (2) ParseAndPutPixels in create.c, and (3) ParsePixels in parse.c for libXpm before 6.8.1 allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a malformed XPM image file. |
| xterm, Eterm, and rxvt allow an attacker to cause a denial of service by embedding certain escape characters which force the window to be resized. |
| libICE in XFree86 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service by specifying a large value which is not properly checked by the SKIP_STRING macro. |
| Buffer overflow in Dispatch() routine for XFS font server (fs.auto) on Solaris 2.5.1 through 9 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) or execute arbitrary code via a certain XFS query. |
| The default configuration of XFCE 3.5.1 bypasses the Xauthority access control mechanism with an "xhost + localhost" command in the xinitrc program, which allows local users to sniff X Windows traffic and gain privileges. |
| Buffer overflow in xman allows local users to gain privileges via a long MANPATH environment variable. |
| xman allows local users to gain privileges by modifying the MANPATH to point to a man page whose filename contains shell metacharacters. |
| dexconf in XFree86 Xserver 4.1.0-2 creates the /dev/dri directory with insecure permissions (666), which allows local users to replace or create files in the root file system. |
| Buffer overflow in xlib in XFree 3.3.x possibly allows local users to execute arbitrary commands via a long DISPLAY environment variable or a -display command line parameter. |
