GE Fanuc iFIX 5.0 and earlier relies on client-side authentication involving a weakly encrypted local password file, which allows remote attackers to bypass intended access restrictions and start privileged server login sessions by recovering a password or by using a modified program module.
gssd in IBM AIX 5.3.x through 5.3.9 and 6.1.0 through 6.1.2 does not properly handle the NFSv4 Kerberos credential cache, which allows local users to bypass intended access restrictions for Kerberized NFSv4 shares via unspecified vectors.
dscl in DS Tools in Apple Mac OS X 10.4.11 and 10.5.6 requires that passwords must be provided as command line arguments, which allows local users to gain privileges by listing process information.
Sun Java System Access Manager 6.3 2005Q1, 7 2005Q4, and 7.1 allows remote authenticated users with console privileges to discover passwords, and obtain unspecified other "access to resources," by visiting the Configuration Items component in the console.
Pre Shopping Mall allows remote attackers to bypass authentication and gain administrative access by setting the (1) adminname and the (2) adminid cookies to "admin".
Textpattern (aka Txp CMS) 4.0.5 does not ask for the old password during a password reset, which makes it easier for remote attackers to change a password after hijacking a session.
Anantasoft Gazelle CMS 1.0 allows remote attackers to conduct a password reset for other users via a modified user parameter to renew.php.
Windows Mobile 6 on the HTC Hermes device makes WLAN passwords available to an auto-completion mechanism for the password input field, which allows physically proximate attackers to bypass password authentication and obtain WLAN access.
token.cgi in Bugzilla 3.4rc1 through 3.4.1 places a password in a URL at the beginning of a login session that occurs immediately after a password reset, which allows context-dependent attackers to discover passwords by reading (1) web-server access logs, (2) web-server Referer logs, or (3) the browser history.
Pre Classified Listing PHP allows remote attackers to bypass authentication and gain administrative access by setting the (1) adminname and the (2) adminid cookies to "admin".
PXE Encryption in Cisco IronPort Encryption Appliance 6.2.4 before 6.2.4.1.1, 6.2.5, 6.2.6, 6.2.7 before 6.2.7.7, 6.3 before 6.3.0.4, and 6.5 before 6.5.0.2; and Cisco IronPort PostX 6.2.1 before 6.2.1.1 and 6.2.2 before 6.2.2.3; allows remote attackers to capture credentials by tricking a user into reading a modified or crafted e-mail message.
weblogin/login.fcgi (aka the WebLogin login script) in Stanford University WebAuth 3.5.5, 3.6.0, and 3.6.1 places passwords in URLs in certain circumstances involving conversion of a POST request to a GET request, which allows context-dependent attackers to discover passwords by reading (1) web-server access logs, (2) web-server Referer logs, or (3) the browser history.
Mole Group Lastminute Script 4.0 and earlier stores passwords in cleartext, which allows context-dependent attackers to obtain sensitive information. NOTE: the provenance of this information is unknown; the details are obtained solely from third party information.
Unspecified vulnerability in fseventsd in the FSEvents framework in Apple Mac OS X 10.5.6 allows local users to obtain sensitive information (filesystem activities and directory names) via unknown vectors related to "credential management."
Ubuntu 6.06 LTS, 7.10, 8.04 LTS, and 8.10, when installed as a virtual machine by (1) python-vm-builder or (2) ubuntu-vm-builder in VMBuilder 0.9 in Ubuntu 8.10, have ! (exclamation point) as the default root password, which allows attackers to bypass intended login restrictions.
Event Monitor in Apple Mac OS X 10.5.8 does not properly handle crafted authentication data sent to an SSH daemon, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via vectors involving processing of XML log documents by other services, related to a "log injection" issue.
The web component in Philips Electronics VOIP841 DECT Phone with firmware 1.0.4.50 and 1.0.4.80 has a back door "service" account with "service" as its password, which makes it easier for remote attackers to obtain access.
Gizmo 3.1.0.79 on Linux does not verify a server's SSL certificate, which allows remote servers to obtain the credentials of arbitrary users via a spoofed certificate.
Verbatim Corporate Secure and Corporate Secure FIPS Edition USB flash drives do not prevent password replay attacks, which allows physically proximate attackers to access the cleartext drive contents by providing a key that was captured in a USB data stream at an earlier time.
