Solaris SUNWadmap can be exploited to obtain root access.

Power management (Powermanagement) on Solaris 2.4 through 2.6 does not start the xlock process until after the sys-suspend has completed, which allows an attacker with physical access to input characters to the last active application from the keyboard for a short period after the system is restoring, which could lead to increased privileges.

The at program in IRIX 6.2 and NetBSD 1.3.2 and earlier allows local users to read portions of arbitrary files by submitting the file to at with the -f argument, which generates error messages that at sends to the user via e-mail.

StarTech (1) POP3 proxy server and (2) telnet server allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via a long USER command.

disk_bandwidth on SGI IRIX 6.4 S2MP for Origin/Onyx2 allows local users to gain root access using relative pathnames.

Denial of service in WinGate proxy through a buffer overflow in POP3.

Linux 2.0.34 does not properly prevent users from sending SIGIO signals to arbitrary processes, which allows local users to cause a denial of service by sending SIGIO to processes that do not catch it.

Livingston Portmaster routers running ComOS use the same initial sequence number (ISN) for TCP connections, which allows remote attackers to conduct spoofing and hijack TCP sessions.

Microsoft SQL Server 6.5 uses weak encryption for the password for the SQLExecutiveCmdExec account and stores it in an accessible portion of the registry, which could allow local users to gain privileges by reading and decrypting the CmdExecAccount value.

NIS finger allows an attacker to conduct a denial of service via a large number of finger requests, resulting in a large number of NIS queries.

Information from SSL-encrypted sessions via PKCS #1.

COPS 1.04 allows local users to overwrite or create arbitrary files via a symlink attack on temporary files in (1) res_diff, (2) ca.src, and (3) mail.chk.

rex.satan in SATAN 1.1.1 allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on the /tmp/rex.$$ file.

Tiger 2.2.3 allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on various temporary files in Tiger's default working directory, as defined by the WORKDIR variable.

The textcounter.pl by Matt Wright allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via shell metacharacters.

Bug in AMD K6 processor on Linux 2.0.x and 2.1.x kernels allows local users to cause a denial of service (crash) via a particular sequence of instructions, possibly related to accessing addresses outside of segments.

FreeBSD allows local users to conduct a denial of service by creating a hard link from a device special file to a file on an NFS file system.

SSH 1.2.25, 1.2.23, and other versions, when used in in CBC (Cipher Block Chaining) or CFB (Cipher Feedback 64 bits) modes, allows remote attackers to insert arbitrary data into an existing stream between an SSH client and server by using a known plaintext attack and computing a valid CRC-32 checksum for the packet, aka the "SSH insertion attack."

Macromedia Dreamweaver uses weak encryption to store FTP passwords, which could allow local users to easily decrypt the passwords of other users.

(1) acledit and (2) aclput in AIX 4.3 allow local users to create or modify files via a symlink attack.

Cheyenne InocuLAN Anti-Virus Server in Inoculan 4.0 before Service Pack 2 creates an update directory with "EVERYONE FULL CONTROL" permissions, which allows local users to cause Inoculan's antivirus update feature to install a Trojan horse dll.

Sambar Server 4.1 beta allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information about the server via an HTTP request for the dumpenv.pl script.

Sun's ftpd daemon can be subjected to a denial of service.

Buffer overflow in NIS+, in Sun's rpc.nisd program.

Compaq/Microcom 6000 Access Integrator does not disconnect a client after a certain number of failed login attempts, which allows remote attackers to guess usernames or passwords via a brute force attack.

Compaq/Microcom 6000 Access Integrator does not cause a session timeout after prompting for a username or password, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service by connecting to the integrator without providing a username or password.

Micah Software Full Armor Network Configurator and Zero Administration allow local users with physical access to bypass the desktop protection by (1) using <CTRL><ALT><DEL> and kill the process using the task manager, (2) booting the system from a separate disk, or (3) interrupting certain processes that execute while the system is booting.
