Unknown vulnerability in Solaris 2.6 through 9 causes a denial of service (system panic) via "a rare race condition" or an attack by local users.

security flaw

The prescan function in Sendmail 8.12.9 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via buffer overflow attacks, as demonstrated using the parseaddr function in parseaddr.c.

ISC BIND 8.3.x before 8.3.7, and 8.4.x before 8.4.3, allows remote attackers to poison the cache via a malicious name server that returns negative responses with a large TTL (time-to-live) value.

Unknown multiple vulnerabilities in (1) lpstat and (2) the libprint library in Solaris 2.6 through 9 may allow attackers to execute arbitrary code or read or write arbitrary files.

Unknown vulnerability in the ls-F builtin function in tcsh on Solaris 8 allows local users to create or delete files as other users, and gain privileges.

Unknown vulnerability in CDE Print Viewer (dtprintinfo) for Sun Solaris 2.6 through 9 may allow local users to execute arbitrary code.

Buffer overflow in the nss_ldap.so.1 library for Sun Solaris 8 and 9 may allow local users to gain root access via a long hostname in an LDAP lookup.

The ed editor for Sun Solaris 2.6, 7, and 8 allows local users to create or overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on temporary files.

The Xsun server for Sun Solaris 2.6 through 9, when running in Direct Graphics Access (DGA) mode, allows local users to cause a denial of service (Xsun crash) or to create or overwrite arbitrary files on the system, probably via a symlink attack on temporary server files.

Unknown vulnerability in the libraries for the PGX32 frame buffer in Solaris 2.5.1 and 2.6 through 9 allows local users to gain root access.

The NFS Server for Solaris 7, 8, and 9 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (UFS panic) via certain invalid UFS requests, which triggers a null dereference.

Race condition in Solaris 2.6 through 9 allows local users to cause a denial of service (kernel panic), as demonstrated via the namefs function, pipe, and certain STREAMS routines.

Unknown vulnerability in the sysinfo system call for Solaris for SPARC 2.6 through 9, and Solaris for x86 2.6, 7, and 8, allows local users to read kernel memory.

The patches (1) 105693-13, (2) 108800-02, (3) 105694-13, and (4) 108801-02 for cachefs on Solaris 2.6 and 7 overwrite the inetd.conf file, which may silently reenable services and allow remote attackers to bypass the intended security policy.

Buffer overflow in Solaris chkperm command allows local users to gain root access via a long -n option.

Solaris dmi_cmd allows local users to crash the dmispd daemon by adding a malformed file to the /var/dmi/db database.

64 bit Solaris 7 procfs allows local users to perform a denial of service.

Solaris dmispd dmi_cmd allows local users to fill up restricted disk space by adding files to the /var/dmi/db database.

Multiple unspecified vulnerabilities in sendmail 5, as installed on Sun SunOS 4.1.3_U1 and 4.1.4, have unspecified attack vectors and impact. NOTE: this might overlap CVE-1999-0129.

The cancel command in Solaris 2.6 (i386) has a buffer overflow that allows local users to obtain root access.
