Buffer overflow in db2licm in IBM DB2 Universal Data Base 7.2 before Fixpak 10a allows local users to gain root privileges via a long command line argument.

IBM DB2 Universal Database (UDB) 820 before ESE AIX 5765F4100 allows remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) by "abnormally" terminating a connection, which prevents db2agents from being properly cleared.

IBM DB2 Universal Database (UDB) 820 before 8.2 FP10 allows remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (disk consumption) via a hash join (hsjn) that triggers an infinite loop in sqlri_hsjnFlushBlocks.

IBM DB2 Universal Database 7 before FixPak 12 creates certain DMS directories with insecure permissions (777), which allows local users to modify or delete certain DB2 files.

IBM DB2 Universal Database (UDB) 810 before 8.1 FP10 allows remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (application crash) via (1) certain equality predicates that trigger self-removal, aka IY70808; and (2) a query with more than 32000 elements in the IN-list, aka LI70817.

IBM DB2 Database server running on Windows XP with Simple File Sharing enabled, allows remote attackers to bypass authentication and log on to the guest account without supplying a password.

IBM DB2 7.2 before FixPak 10a, and earlier versions including 7.1, allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files and gain privileges via a symlink attack on (1) db2job and (2) db2job2.

Buffer overflow in db2dart in IBM DB2 Universal Data Base 7.2 before Fixpak 10 allows local users to gain root privileges via a long command line argument.

IBM DB2 Universal Database (UDB) before 8.1 FixPak 13 allows remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (crash) by (1) sending the first ACCSEC command without an RDBNAM parameter during the CONNECT process, or (2) sending crafted SQLJRA packet, which results in a null dereference.

INSO service in IBM DB2 Content Manager before 8.2 Fix Pack 10 on AIX allows attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via unknown attack vectors involving LZH files.

IBM DB2 Universal Database (UDB) before 8.2 FixPak 12 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) by sending "incorrect information ... regarding the package name/creator," which leads to a "memory overwrite."

Multiple unspecified vulnerabilities in IBM DB2 Universal Database (UDB) before 8.1 FixPak 12 allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a (1) "long column list" in the (a) REPLACE INTO and (b) INSERT INTO portions of the LOAD command or a (2) large number of values in an IN clause, possibly related to a buffer overflow.

db2fmp process in IBM DB2 Content Manager before 8.2 Fix Pack 10 allows local users to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) by importing a corrupted Microsoft Excel file, aka "CORRUPTED EXEL FILE WILL CAUSE TEXT SEARCH PROCESS LOOPING."

Buffer overflow in the TCP/IP listener in IBM DB2 Universal Database (UDB) before 8.1 FixPak 12 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a long MGRLVLLS message inside of an EXCSAT message when establishing a connection.

Stack-based buffer overflow in IBM DB2 Universal Data Base 7.2 for Windows, before Fixpak 10a, allows attackers with "Connect" privileges to execute arbitrary code via the INVOKE command.

Certain XML functions in IBM DB2 8.1 run with the privileges of DB2 instead of the logged-in user, which allows remote attackers to create or overwrite files via (1) XMLFileFromVarchar or (2) XMLFileFromClob, or read files via (3) XMLVarcharFromFile or (4) XMLClobFromFile.

Unknown vulnerability in IBM DB2 8.1.4 through 8.1.9 and 8.2.0 through 8.2.2 allows local users with SELECT privileges to conduct unauthorized activities and insert, update or delete table contents.

Stack-based buffer overflows in the (1) xmlvarcharfromfile, (2) xmlclobfromfile, (3) xmlfilefromvarchar, and (4) xmlfilefromclob function calls in IBM DB2 8.1 allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a 94-byte second argument, which causes the return address to be overwritten with a pointer to the argument.

The (1) to_char and (2) to_date function in IBM DB2 8.1 allows local users to cause a denial of service (application crash) via an empty string in the second parameter, which causes a null pointer dereference.

Unknown "high risk" vulnerability in DB2 Universal Database 8.1 and earlier has unknown impact and attack vectors. NOTE: due to the delayed disclosure of details for this issue, this candidate may be SPLIT in the future. In addition, this may be a duplicate of other issues as reported by the vendor.
