Local user gains root privileges via buffer overflow in rdist, via lookup() function.
Search vulnerabilities
security flaw
Multiple heap-based buffer overflows in the imlib BMP image handler allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted BMP file.
Buffer overflow in the BMP loader in imlib2 before 1.1.2 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a specially-crafted BMP image, a different vulnerability than CVE-2004-0817.
Directory traversal vulnerability in iPlanet Certificate Management System 4.2 and Directory Server 4.12 allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files via a .. (dot dot) attack in the Agent, End Entity, or Administrator services.
Unknown vulnerability in foomatic-rip in Foomatic before 3.0.2 allows local users or remote attackers with access to CUPS to execute arbitrary commands.
Format string vulnerability in CDE Mailer (dtmail) on Solaris 8 and 9 allows local users to gain privileges via format strings in the argv[0] value.
HotJava Browser 3.0 allows remote attackers to access the DOM of a web page by opening a javascript: URL in a named window.
Buffer overflow in Solaris dtprintinfo program.
security flaw
Multiple TCP/IP and ICMP implementations allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (network throughput reduction for TCP connections) via a blind throughput-reduction attack using spoofed Source Quench packets, aka the "ICMP Source Quench attack." NOTE: CVE-2004-0790, CVE-2004-0791, and CVE-2004-1060 have been SPLIT based on different attacks; CVE-2005-0065, CVE-2005-0066, CVE-2005-0067, and CVE-2005-0068 are related identifiers that are SPLIT based on the underlying vulnerability. While CVE normally SPLITs based on vulnerability, the attack-based identifiers exist due to the variety and number of affected implementations and solutions that address the attacks instead of the underlying vulnerabilities.
Multiple TCP/IP and ICMP implementations allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (reset TCP connections) via spoofed ICMP error messages, aka the "blind connection-reset attack."

security flaw
Heap overflow in savestr function in LBNL traceroute 1.4a5 and earlier allows a local user to execute arbitrary commands via the -g option.
Buffer overflow in uustat in Sun Solaris 8 and 9 allows local users to execute arbitrary code via a long -S command line argument.
Sun Java System Portal Server 6.2 (formerly Sun ONE) allows remote authenticated users to obtain Calendar Server privileges and modify Calendar data by changing the display options to a non-default view.
security flaw
Some functions that implement the locale subsystem on Unix do not properly cleanse user-injected format strings, which allows local attackers to execute arbitrary commands via functions such as gettext and catopen.
Buffer overflow in Solaris lpset program allows local users to gain root access.
The passwd command in Solaris can be subjected to a denial of service.
Sun Ray Server Software (SRSS) 1.3 and 2.0 for Solaris 2.6, 7 and 8 does not properly detect a smartcard removal when the card is quickly removed, reinserted, and removed again, which could cause a user session to stay logged in and allow local users to gain unauthorized access.
Unknown vulnerability in the Basic Security Module (BSM), when configured to audit either the Administrative (ad) or the System-Wide Administration (as) audit class in Solaris 7, 8, and 9, allows local users to cause a denial of service (kernel panic).
The administration module in Sun Java web server allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands by uploading Java code to the module and invoke the com.sun.server.http.pagecompile.jsp92.JspServlet by requesting a URL that begins with a /servlet/ tag.
Solaris 9, when configured as a Kerberos client with patch 112908-12 or 115168-03 and using pam_krb5 as an "auth" module with the debug feature enabled, records passwords in plaintext, which could allow local users to gain other user's passwords by reading log files.
