The web interface for Lotus Notes mail automatically processes HTML in an attachment without prompting the user to save or open it, which makes it easier for remote attackers to conduct web-based attacks and steal cookies.

IBM Lotus Notes 6.5.4 and 6.5.5, and 7.0.0 and 7.0.1, uses insecure default permissions (Everyone/Full Control) for the "Notes" folder and all children, which allows local users to gain privileges and modify, add, or delete files in that folder.

Multiple stack-based buffer overflows in Autonomy (formerly Verity) KeyView SDK before 9.2.0, as used in Lotus Notes 6.5.4 and 7.0, allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via (1) a UUE file containing an encoded file with a long filename handled by uudrdr.dll, (2) a compressed ZIP file with a long filename handled by kvarcve.dll, (3) a TAR archive with a long filename that is extracted to a directory with a long path handled by the TAR reader (tarrdr.dll), (4) an email that contains a long HTTP, FTP, or // link handled by the HTML speed reader (htmsr.dll) or (5) an email containing a crafted long link handled by the HTML speed reader (htmsr.dll).

Directory traversal vulnerability in kvarcve.dll in Autonomy (formerly Verity) KeyView SDK before 9.2.0, as used in Lotus Notes 6.5.4 and 7.0, allows remote attackers to delete arbitrary files via a (1) ZIP, (2) UUE or (3) TAR archive that contains a .. (dot dot) in the filename, which is not properly handled when generating a preview.

IBM Lotus Notes does not properly restrict access to password hashes in the Notes Address Book (NAB), which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information via the (1) password digest field in the Administration tab of a Lotus Notes client, (2) "PasswordDigest" and "HTTPPassword" fields in the document properties in the NAB, or (3) a direct query to the Domino LDAP server, a different vulnerability than CVE-2005-2428.

Buffer overflow in IBM Lotus Notes and Domino Server before 6.5.5 allows attackers to cause a denial of service (router crash or hang) via unspecified vectors involving "CD to MIME Conversion".

Unspecified vulnerability in IBM Lotus Notes and Domino Server before 6.5.5, when running on AIX, allows attackers to cause a denial of service (deep recursion leading to stack overflow and crash) via long formulas.

Multiple unspecified vulnerabilities in IBM Lotus Notes and Domino Server before 6.5.5 have unknown impact and attack vectors, due to "potential security issues" as identified by SPR numbers (1) GPKS6C9J67 in Agents, (2) JGAN6B6TZ3 and (3) KSPR699NBP in the Router, (4) GPKS5YQGPT in Security, or (5) HSAO6BNL6Y in the Web Server. NOTE: vector 3 is related to an issue in NROUTER in IBM Lotus Notes and Domino Server before 6.5.4 FP1, 6.5.5, and 7.0, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) via a crafted vCal meeting request sent via SMTP (aka SPR# KSPR699NBP).

Multiple unspecified vulnerabilities in IBM Lotus Notes and Domino Server before 6.5.5 allow attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via multiple vectors, involving (1) a malformed message sent to an "Out Of Office" agent (SPR LPEE6DMQWJ), (2) the compact command (RTIN5U2SAJ), (3) malformed bitmap images (MYAA6FH5HW), (4) the "Delete Attachment" action (YPHG6844LD), (5) parsing certificates from a remote Certificate Table (AELE6DZFJW), and (6) creating a SSL key ring with the Domino Administration client (NSUA4FQPTN).

Multiple memory leaks in IBM Lotus Notes and Domino Server before 6.5.5 allow attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption and crash) via unknown vectors related to (1) unspecified vectors during the SSL handshake (SPR# MKIN67MQVW), (2) the stash file during the SSL handshake (SPR# MKIN693QUT), and possibly other vectors. NOTE: due to insufficient information in the original vendor advisory, it is not clear whether there is an attacker role in other memory leaks that are specified in the advisory.

JDK: Privilege escalation issue

Unspecified vulnerability in the IBM Java Virtual Machine, as used in IBM WebSphere Real Time 3 before Service Refresh 7 FP1 and other products, allows remote attackers to gain privileges by leveraging the ability to execute code in the context of a security manager.

IBM Notes and Domino 8.5.x before 8.5.3 FP6 IF3 and 9.x before 9.0.1 FP1 on 32-bit Linux platforms use incorrect gcc options, which makes it easier for remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by leveraging the absence of the NX protection mechanism and placing crafted x86 code on the stack, aka SPR KLYH9GGS9W.

IBM Lotus Notes Traveler before 8.5.0.2 does not properly handle a "* *" argument sequence for a certain tell command, which allows remote authenticated users to obtain access to other users' data via a sync operation, related to storage of the data of multiple users within the same thread.

IBM Lotus Notes Traveler before 8.5.0.2 allows remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (memory consumption and daemon crash) by syncing a large volume of data, related to the launch of a new process to handle the data while the previous process is still operating on the data.

The Nokia client in IBM Lotus Notes Traveler before 8.5.0.2 does not properly handle multiple outgoing e-mail messages between sync operations, which might allow remote attackers to read communications intended for other recipients by examining appended messages.

traveler.exe in IBM Lotus Notes Traveler before 8.0.1.3 CF1 allows remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (daemon crash) via a malformed invitation document in a sync operation.

IBM Lotus Notes 7.0, 8.0, and 8.5 stores administrative credentials in cleartext in SURunAs.exe, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information by examining this file, aka SPR JSTN837SEG.

Stack-based buffer overflow in IBM Lotus Notes 8.5 and 8.5fp1, and possibly other versions, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via unknown attack vectors, as demonstrated by the vd_ln module in VulnDisco 9.0. NOTE: as of 20100222, this disclosure has no actionable information. However, because the VulnDisco author is a reliable researcher, the issue is being assigned a CVE identifier for tracking purposes.

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the servlet in IBM Lotus Notes Traveler before 8.5.1.3 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via unspecified vectors.

IBM Lotus Notes Traveler before 8.5.1.2 allows remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (resource consumption and sync outage) by syncing a large volume of data.
