Delete or create a file via rpc.statd, due to invalid information.
AS/400 Telnet 5250 terminal emulation clients, as implemented by (1) IBM client access, (2) Bosanova, (3) PowerTerm, (4) Mochasoft, and possibly other emulations, allows malicious AS/400 servers to execute arbitrary commands via a STRPCO (Start PC Organizer) command followed by STRPCCMD (Start PC command), as demonstrated by creating a backdoor account using REXEC.
Directory traversal vulnerability in IBM alphaWorks Java TFTP server 1.21 allows remote attackers to conduct unauthorized operations on arbitrary files via a .. (dot dot) attack.
Denial of Service vulnerabilities in BIND 4.9 and BIND 8 Releases via CNAME record and zone transfer.
Unknown vulnerability in IBM Hardware Management Console (HMC) before 4.4 for POWER5 servers allows local users to gain privileges, related to the Guided Setup Wizard.
Unknown vulnerability in IBM Websphere Application Server 5.0, 5.1, and 6.0 when running on Windows, allows remote attackers to obtain the source code for Java Server Pages (.jsp) via a crafted URL that causes the page to be processed by the file serving servlet instead of the JSP engine.
WebSeal in IBM Tivoli SecureWay Policy Director 3.8 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a URL that ends in %2e.
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.

IBM Websphere Application Server 3.5.3 and earlier stores a password in cleartext in the sas.server.props file, which allows local users to obtain the passwords via a JSP script.
lspath in AIX 5.2, 5.3, and possibly earlier versions, does not drop privileges before processing the -f option, which allows local users to read one line of arbitrary files.
Format string vulnerability in auditselect on IBM AIX 5.1, 5.2, and 5.3 allows local users to execute arbitrary code via format string specifiers in a command line argument.
dump_smutil.sh in IBM AIX allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on temporary files.
Format string vulnerability in chdev on IBM AIX 5.2 allows local users to execute arbitrary code via format string specifiers in a command line argument, which is not properly handled when printing an error message.
lquerypv in AIX 4.1 and 4.2 allows local users to read arbitrary files by specifying the file in the -h command line parameter.
