security flaw

SMB dissector in Ethereal 0.9.3 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) or execute arbitrary code via malformed packets that cause Ethereal to dereference a NULL pointer.

security flaw

Buffer overflow in the index menu code (menu_pad_string of menu.c) for Mutt 1.4.1 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via certain mail messages.

security flaw

Race condition in ptrace in Linux kernel 2.4 and 2.2 allows local users to gain privileges by using ptrace to track and modify a running setuid process.

security flaw

The do_mremap function for the mremap system call in Linux 2.2 to 2.2.25, 2.4 to 2.4.24, and 2.6 to 2.6.2, does not properly check the return value from the do_munmap function when the maximum number of VMA descriptors is exceeded, which allows local users to gain root privileges, a different vulnerability than CAN-2003-0985.

security flaw

ISC BIND 9 before 9.2.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (shutdown) via a malformed DNS packet that triggers an error condition that is not properly handled when the rdataset parameter to the dns_message_findtype() function in message.c is not NULL, aka DoS_findtype.

security flaw

The Vicam USB driver in Linux before 2.4.25 does not use the copy_from_user function when copying data from userspace to kernel space, which crosses security boundaries and allows local users to cause a denial of service.

traceroute in NetBSD 1.3.3 and Linux systems allows local users to flood other systems by providing traceroute with a large waittime (-w) option, which is not parsed properly and sets the time delay for sending packets to zero.

security flaw

The rawprint function in the ISAKMP decoding routines (print-isakmp.c) for tcpdump 3.8.1 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (segmentation fault) via malformed ISAKMP packets that cause invalid "len" or "loc" values to be used in a loop, a different vulnerability than CVE-2003-0989.

security flaw

Directory traversal vulnerability in GNU tar 1.13.19 through 1.13.25, and possibly later versions, allows attackers to overwrite arbitrary files during archive extraction via a (1) "/.." or (2) "./.." string, which removes the leading slash but leaves the "..", a variant of CVE-2001-1267.

security flaw

The print_attr_string function in print-radius.c for tcpdump 3.8.1 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (segmentation fault) via a RADIUS attribute with a large length value.

security flaw

Linux kernel 2.4 and 2.2 allows local users to read kernel memory and possibly gain privileges via a negative argument to the sysctl call.

security flaw

Stack-based buffer overflow in the ncp_lookup function for ncpfs in Linux kernel 2.4.x allows local users to gain privileges.

security flaw

Apache 1.3 through 1.3.24, and Apache 2.0 through 2.0.36, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary code via a chunk-encoded HTTP request that causes Apache to use an incorrect size.

security flaw

Integer overflow in Gaim 0.74 and earlier, and Ultramagnetic before 0.81, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary code via a directIM packet that triggers a heap-based buffer overflow.

security flaw

Buffer overflow in the Extract Info Field Function for (1) MSN and (2) YMSG protocol handlers in Gaim 0.74 and earlier, and Ultramagnetic before 0.81, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary code.

security flaw

Integer overflow in xdr_array function in RPC servers for operating systems that use libc, glibc, or other code based on SunRPC including dietlibc, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by passing a large number of arguments to xdr_array through RPC services such as rpc.cmsd and dmispd.

security flaw

Multiple buffer overflows in Gaim 0.75 and earlier, and Ultramagnetic before 0.81, allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary code via (1) cookies in a Yahoo web connection, (2) a long name parameter in the Yahoo login web page, (3) a long value parameter in the Yahoo login page, (4) a YMSG packet, (5) the URL parser, and (6) HTTP proxy connect.

security flaw

inetd in Red Hat 6.2 does not properly close sockets for internal services such as chargen, daytime, echo, etc., which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via a series of connections to the internal services.

security flaw

Unknown vulnerability in Linux kernel before 2.4.22 allows local users to gain privileges, related to "R128 DRI limits checking."

security flaw

Cross-site scripting vulnerabilities in Mailman before 2.0.11 allow remote attackers to execute script via (1) the admin login page, or (2) the Pipermail index summaries.
