ColdFusion MX 6.1 and 6.1 J2EE allows local users to bypass sandbox security restrictions and obtain sensitive information by using Java reflection methods to access trusted Java objects without using the CreateObject function or cfobject tag.
WFTPD Pro Server 3.21 Release 1, with the XeroxDocutech option enabled, allows local users to cause a denial of service (crash) via a (1) MKD or (2) XMKD command that causes an absolute path of 260 characters to be used, which overwrites a cookie with a null character, possibly due to an off-by-one error.
cPanel 9.4.1-RELEASE-64 follows hard links, which allows local users to (1) read arbitrary files via the backup feature or (2) chown arbitrary files via the .htaccess file when Front Page extensions are enabled or disabled.
Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the administration panel in bBlog 0.7.2 allows remote authenticated users with superuser privileges to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via a blog name ($blogname). NOTE: if administrators are normally allowed to add HTML by other means, e.g. through Smarty templates, then this issue would not give any additional privileges, and thus would not be considered a vulnerability.
FreeScripts VisitorBook LE (visitorbook.pl) logs the reverse DNS name of a visiting host, which allows remote attackers to spoof the origin of their incoming requests and facilitate cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks.
libxml2, possibly before 2.5.0, does not properly detect recursion during entity expansion, which allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (memory and CPU consumption) via a crafted XML document containing a large number of nested entity references, aka the "billion laughs attack."
NewsReactor 1.0 uses a weak encryption scheme, which could allow local users to decrypt the passwords and gain access to other users' newsgroup accounts.
Microsoft Outlook plug-in PGP version 7.0, 7.0.3, and 7.0.4 silently saves a decrypted copy of a message to hard disk when "Automatically decrypt/verify when opening messages" option is checked, "Always use Secure Viewer when decrypting" option is not checked, and the user replies to an encrypted message.
The Standard security setting for Mandrake-Security package (msec) in Mandrake 8.2 installs home directories with world-readable permissions, which could allow local users to read other user's files.
tip on multiple BSD-based operating systems allows local users to cause a denial of service (execution prevention) by using flock() to lock the /var/log/acculog file.
Videsh Sanchar Nigam Limited (VSNL) Integrated Dialer Software 1.2.000, when the "Save Password" option is used, stores the password with a weak encryption scheme (one-to-one mapping) in a registry key, which allows local users to obtain and decrypt the password.
Sharp Zaurus PDA SL-5000D and SL-5500 uses a salt of "A0" to encrypt the screen-locking password as stored in the Security.conf file, which makes it easier for local users to guess the password via brute force methods.
Horde IMP 2.2.7 allows remote attackers to obtain the full web root pathname via an HTTP request for (1) poppassd.php3, (2) login.php3?reason=chpass2, (3) spelling.php3, and (4) ldap.search.php3?ldap_serv=nonsense which leaks the information in error messages.
NTFS file system in Windows NT 4.0 and Windows 2000 SP2 allows local attackers to hide file usage activities via a hard link to the target file, which causes the link to be recorded in the audit trail instead of the target file.
An interaction between PGP 7.0.3 with the "wipe deleted files" option, when used on Windows Encrypted File System (EFS), creates a cleartext temporary files that cannot be wiped or deleted due to strong permissions, which could allow certain local users or attackers with physical access to obtain cleartext information.
Hard link and possibly symbolic link following vulnerabilities in QNX RTOS 4.25 (aka QNX4) allow local users to overwrite arbitrary files via (1) the -f argument to the monitor utility, (2) the -d argument to dumper, (3) the -c argument to crttrap, or (4) using the Watcom sample utility.
script command in the util-linux package before 2.11n allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files by setting a hardlink from the typescript log file to any file on the system, then having root execute the script command.
Microsoft Internet Security and Acceleration (ISA) Server 2000 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via a flood of fragmented UDP packets. NOTE: the vendor disputes this issue, saying that it requires high bandwidth to exploit, and the server does not experience any instability. Therefore this "laws of physics" issue might not be included in CVE
The uipc system calls (uipc_syscalls.c) in OpenBSD 2.9 and 3.0 provide user mode return instead of versus rval kernel mode values to the fdrelease function, which allows local users to cause a denial of service and trigger a null dereference.
qpopper POP server creates lock files with predictable names, which allows local users to cause a denial of service for other users (lack of mail access) by creating lock files for other mail boxes.
ZoneAlarm and ZoneAlarm Pro allows a local attacker to cause a denial of service by running a trojan to initialize a ZoneAlarm mutex object which prevents ZoneAlarm from starting.
Joe text editor follows symbolic links when creating a rescue copy called DEADJOE during an abnormal exit, which allows local users to overwrite the files of other users whose joe session crashes.
HP-UX 11.00 crontab allows local users to read arbitrary files via the -e option by creating a symlink to the target file during the crontab session, quitting the session, and reading the error messages that crontab generates.
ICQwebmail client for ICQ 2000A creates a world readable temporary file during login and does not delete it, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information.
Concurrent Versions Software (CVS) uses predictable temporary file names for locking, which allows local users to cause a denial of service by creating the lock directory before it is created for use by a legitimate CVS user.
Perl 5.004_04 and earlier follows symbolic links when running with the -e option, which allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on the /tmp/perl-eaXXXXX file.
