This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on vulnerable installations of Netgain Enterprise Manager. Authentication is not required to exploit this vulnerability. The specific flaw exists within exec.jsp. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of a user-supplied string before using it to execute a system call. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code under the context of the current user. Was ZDI-CAN-4749.

This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on vulnerable installations of NetGain Systems Enterprise Manager 7.2.730 build 1034. Although authentication is required to exploit this vulnerability, the existing authentication mechanism can be bypassed. The specific flaw exists within the org.apache.jsp.u.jsp.tools.exec_jsp servlet, which listens on TCP port 8081 by default. When parsing the command parameter, the process does not properly validate a user-supplied string before using it to execute a system call. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code under the context of Administrator. Was ZDI-CAN-5193.

secure-compare 3.0.0 and below do not actually compare two strings properly. compare was actually comparing the first argument with itself, meaning the check passed for any two strings of the same length.

ayttm proxy.c http_connect format string

A vulnerability, which was classified as critical, was found in ayttm up to 0.5.0.89. This affects the function http_connect in the library libproxy/proxy.c. The manipulation leads to format string. It is possible to initiate the attack remotely. The complexity of an attack is rather high. The exploitability is told to be difficult. The patch is named 40e04680018614a7d2b68566b261b061a0597046. It is recommended to apply a patch to fix this issue. The associated identifier of this vulnerability is VDB-222267.

Multiple format string vulnerabilities in the python module in RRDtool, as used in Zenoss Core before 4.2.5 and other products, allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (application crash) via a crafted third argument to the rrdtool.graph function, aka ZEN-15415, a related issue to CVE-2013-2131.

gnusound 0.7.5 has format string issue

Thunar before 1.3.1 could crash when copy and pasting a file name with % format characters due to a format string error.

libpoe-component-irc-perl before v6.32 does not remove carriage returns and line feeds. This can be used to execute arbitrary IRC commands by passing an argument such as "some text\rQUIT" to the 'privmsg' handler, which would cause the client to disconnect from the server.

A use of externally-controlled format string in Fortinet FortiAnalyzer versions 7.4.0 through 7.4.3, 7.2.2 through 7.2.5 allows attacker to escalate its privileges via specially crafted requests.
