Buffer overflow in BNC IRC proxy allows remote attackers to gain privileges.

Development version of Breeze Network Server allows remote attackers to cause the system to reboot by accessing the configbreeze CGI program.

nlog CGI scripts do not properly filter shell metacharacters from the IP address argument, which could allow remote attackers to execute certain commands via (1) nlog-smb.pl or (2) rpc-nlog.pl.

BackWeb client stores the username and password in cleartext for proxy authentication in the Communication registry key, which could allow other local users to gain privileges by reading the password.

The passwd command in Solaris can be subjected to a denial of service.

Buffer overflow in Solaris x86 mkcookie allows local users to obtain root access.

RealSystem G2 server stores the administrator password in cleartext in a world-readable configuration file, which allows local users to gain privileges.

Internet Explorer 3.x to 4.01 allows a remote attacker to insert malicious content into a frame of another web site, aka frame spoofing.
