Recourse ManTrap 1.6 sets up a chroot environment to hide the fact that it is running, but the inode number for the resulting "/" file system is higher than normal, which allows attackers to determine that they are in a chroot environment.

Recourse ManTrap 1.6 allows attackers who have gained root access to use utilities such as crash or fsdb to read /dev/mem and raw disk devices to identify ManTrap processes or modify arbitrary data files.

Recourse ManTrap 1.6 allows attackers to cause a denial of service via a sequence of commands that navigate into and out of the /proc/self directory and executing various commands such as ls or pwd.

Lucent/ORiNOCO WaveLAN cards generate predictable Initialization Vector (IV) values for the Wireless Encryption Protocol (WEP) which allows remote attackers to quickly compile information that will let them decrypt messages.

Cisco AP340 base station produces predictable TCP Initial Sequence Numbers (ISNs), which allows remote attackers to spoof or hijack TCP connections.

Cisco 340-series Aironet access point using firmware 11.01 does not use 6 of the 24 available IV bits for WEP encryption, which makes it easier for remote attackers to mount brute force attacks.

WinCE 3.0.9348 generates predictable TCP Initial Sequence Numbers (ISNs), which allows remote attackers to spoof or hijack TCP connections.

Xitami 2.5b installs the testcgi.exe program by default in the cgi-bin directory, which allows remote attackers to gain sensitive configuration information about the web server by accessing the program.

The HTTP interface of Tivoli Lightweight Client Framework (LCF) in IBM Tivoli Management Framework 3.7.1 sets http_disable to zero at install time, which allows remote authenticated users to bypass file permissions on Tivoli Endpoint Configuration data files via an unspecified manipulation of log files.

Windows NT 4.0 and Windows 2000 hosts allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (unavailable connections) by sending multiple SMB SMBnegprots requests but not reading the response that is sent back.

Backdoor in auth.php3 in Phorum 3.0.7 allows remote attackers to access restricted web pages via an HTTP request with the PHP_AUTH_USER parameter set to "boogieman".
