Linux kernel before 2.6.15.3 down to 2.6.12, while constructing an ICMP response in icmp_send, does not properly handle when the ip_options_echo function in icmp.c fails, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via vectors such as (1) record-route and (2) timestamp IP options with the needaddr bit set and a truncated value.

TippingPoint Intrusion Prevention System (IPS) TOS before 2.1.4.6324, and TOS 2.2.x before 2.2.1.6506, allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) via an unknown vector, probably involving an HTTP request with a negative number in the Content-Length header.

Cisco IOS before 12.3-7-JA2 on Aironet Wireless Access Points (WAP) allows remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (termination of packet passing or termination of client connections) by sending the management interface a large number of spoofed ARP packets, which creates a large ARP table that exhausts memory, aka Bug ID CSCsc16644.

RockLiffe MailSite HTTP Mail management agent (httpma) 7.0.3.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption and crash) via a malformed query string containing special characters such as "|".

Imager (libimager-perl) before 0.50 allows user-assisted attackers to cause a denial of service (segmentation fault) by writing a 2- or 4-channel JPEG image (or a 2-channel TGA image) to a scalar, which triggers a NULL pointer dereference.

NCP Network Communication Secure Client 8.11 Build 146, and possibly other versions, allows local users to cause a denial of service (memory usage and cpu utilization) via a flood of arbitrary UDP datagrams to ports 0 to 65000. NOTE: this issue was reported as a buffer overflow, but that term usually does not apply in flooding attacks.

security flaw

The Linux kernel 2.6.17.10 and 2.6.17.11 and 2.6.18-rc5 allows local users to cause a denial of service (crash) via an SCTP socket with a certain SO_LINGER value, possibly related to the patch for CVE-2006-3745. NOTE: older kernel versions for specific Linux distributions are also affected, due to backporting of the CVE-2006-3745 patch.

security flaw

The SSCOP dissector in Wireshark (formerly Ethereal) before 0.99.3 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (resource consumption) via malformed packets that cause the Q.2391 dissector to use excessive memory.

Typsoft FTP Server 1.11, with "Sub Directory Include" enabled, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) by sending multiple RETR commands. NOTE: it was later reported that 1.10 is also affected.

OpenLDAP in Apple Mac OS X 10.4 up to 10.4.6 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via an invalid LDAP request that triggers an assert error.

The SMB Mailslot parsing functionality in PAM in multiple ISS products with XPU (24.39/1.78/epj/x.x.x.1780), including Proventia A, G, M, Server, and Desktop, BlackICE PC and Server Protection 3.6, and RealSecure 7.0, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop) via a crafted SMB packet that is not properly handled by the SMB_Mailslot_Heap_Overflow decode.

packets.c in Freeciv 2.0 before 2.0.8 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (server crash) via crafted packets with negative compressed size values.

security flaw

ip_route_input in Linux kernel 2.6 before 2.6.16.8 allows local users to cause a denial of service (panic) via a request for a route for a multicast IP address, which triggers a null dereference.

The netlink_rcv_skb function in af_netlink.c in Linux kernel 2.6.14 and 2.6.15 allows local users to cause a denial of service (infinite loop) via a nlmsg_len field of 0.

eZ publish 3.5 before 3.5.7, 3.6 before 3.6.5, 3.7 before 3.7.3, and 3.8 before 20051128 allows remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (Apache httpd segmentation fault) via a request to content/advancedsearch.php with an empty SearchContentClassID parameter, reportedly related to a "memory addressing error".

security flaw

fetchmail before 6.3.1 and before 6.2.5.5, when configured for multidrop mode, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) by sending messages without headers from upstream mail servers.

security flaw

The time_out_leases function in locks.c for Linux kernel before 2.6.15-rc3 allows local users to cause a denial of service (kernel log message consumption) by causing a large number of broken leases, which is recorded to the log using the printk function.

security flaw

The IPv6 flow label handling code (ip6_flowlabel.c) in Linux kernels 2.4 up to 2.4.32 and 2.6 before 2.6.14 modifies the wrong variable in certain circumstances, which allows local users to corrupt kernel memory or cause a denial of service (crash) by triggering a free of non-allocated memory.

PHP 4.4.2 and 5.1.2 allows local users to cause a crash (segmentation fault) by defining and executing a recursive function. NOTE: it has been reported by a reliable third party that some later versions are also affected.

security flaw

The auto-reap of child processes in Linux kernel 2.6 before 2.6.15 includes processes with ptrace attached, which leads to a dangling ptrace reference and allows local users to cause a denial of service (crash) and gain root privileges.
