The installation for Microsoft Open XML File Format Converter for Mac sets insecure ACLs for the /Applications folder, which allows local users to execute arbitrary code by replacing the executable with a Trojan Horse, aka "Mac Office Open XML Permissions Vulnerability."

The installation process for NFS/ONCplus B.11.31_08 and earlier on HP HP-UX B.11.31 changes the NFS_SERVER setting in the nfsconf file, which might allow remote attackers to obtain filesystem access via NFS requests.

Unspecified vulnerability in Record Management Services (RMS) before VMS83A_RMS-V1100 for HP OpenVMS on the Alpha platform allows local users to gain privileges via unknown vectors.

libspice: Relying on guest provided data structures to indicate memory allocation

libspice, as used in QEMU-KVM in the Hypervisor (aka rhev-hypervisor) in Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization (RHEV) 2.2 and qspice 0.3.0, does not properly restrict the addresses upon which memory-management actions are performed, which allows guest OS users to cause a denial of service (guest OS crash) or possibly gain privileges via unspecified vectors.

sudo: Fails to reset group permissions if runas_default set

sudo 1.6.x before 1.6.9p21, when the runas_default option is used, does not properly set group memberships, which allows local users to gain privileges via a sudo command.

sudo: sudoedit option can possibly allow for arbitrary code execution

sudo 1.6.x before 1.6.9p21 and 1.7.x before 1.7.2p4, when a pseudo-command is enabled, permits a match between the name of the pseudo-command and the name of an executable file in an arbitrary directory, which allows local users to gain privileges via a crafted executable file, as demonstrated by a file named sudoedit in a user's home directory.

kvm: emulator privilege escalation segment selector check

The x86 emulator in KVM 83, when a guest is configured for Symmetric Multiprocessing (SMP), does not properly restrict writing of segment selectors to segment registers, which might allow guest OS users to cause a denial of service (guest OS crash) or gain privileges on the guest OS by leveraging access to a (1) IO port or (2) MMIO region, and replacing an instruction in between emulator entry and instruction fetch.

OpenTTD before 1.0.1 accepts a company password for authentication in response to a request for the server password, which allows remote authenticated users to bypass intended access restrictions or cause a denial of service (daemon crash) by sending a company password packet.

: cups possible arbitrary code execution via suid lppasswd (STR #3482)

The _cupsGetlang function, as used by lppasswd.c in lppasswd in CUPS 1.2.2, 1.3.7, 1.3.9, and 1.4.1, relies on an environment variable to determine the file that provides localized message strings, which allows local users to gain privileges via a file that contains crafted localization data with format string specifiers.

install.php in JCE-Tech PHP Calendars, downloaded 20100121, allows remote attackers to bypass intended access restrictions and modify application settings via a direct request. NOTE: this is only a vulnerability when the administrator does not follow recommendations in the product's installation documentation.

kvm: emulator privilege escalation IOPL/CPL level check

The x86 emulator in KVM 83, when a guest is configured for Symmetric Multiprocessing (SMP), does not use the Current Privilege Level (CPL) and I/O Privilege Level (IOPL) to restrict instruction execution, which allows guest OS users to cause a denial of service (guest OS crash) or gain privileges on the guest OS by leveraging access to a (1) IO port or (2) MMIO region, and replacing an instruction in between emulator entry and instruction fetch, a related issue to CVE-2010-0298.

maildrop: does not drop supplimentary groups when dropping privileges

main.C in maildrop 2.3.0 and earlier, when run by root with the -d option, uses the gid of root for execution of the .mailfilter file in a user's home directory, which allows local users to gain privileges via a crafted file.

kernel: Driver-Core: devtmpfs - set root directory mode to 0755

openSUSE 11.2 installs the devtmpfs root directory with insecure permissions (1777), which allows local users to gain privileges via unspecified vectors.

kvm: emulator privilege escalation

The x86 emulator in KVM 83 does not use the Current Privilege Level (CPL) and I/O Privilege Level (IOPL) in determining the memory access available to CPL3 code, which allows guest OS users to cause a denial of service (guest OS crash) or gain privileges on the guest OS by leveraging access to a (1) IO port or (2) MMIO region, a related issue to CVE-2010-0306.

kernel: untangle the do_mremap()

The Linux kernel before 2.6.32.4 allows local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service (panic) by calling the (1) mmap or (2) mremap function, aka the "do_mremap() mess" or "mremap/mmap mess."

dokuwiki: multiple vulnerabilities in ACL manager

A typo in the administrator permission check in the ACL Manager plugin (plugins/acl/ajax.php) in DokuWiki before 2009-12-25b allows remote attackers to gain privileges and access closed wikis by editing current ACL statements, as demonstrated in the wild in January 2010.

Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.01 SP4, 6, 6 SP1, 7, and 8 does not prevent rendering of non-HTML local files as HTML documents, which allows remote attackers to bypass intended access restrictions and read arbitrary files via vectors involving JavaScript exploit code that constructs a reference to a file://127.0.0.1 URL, aka the dynamic OBJECT tag vulnerability, as demonstrated by obtaining the data from an index.dat file, a variant of CVE-2009-1140 and related to CVE-2008-1448.

The kernel in Microsoft Windows 2000 SP4 and XP SP2 and SP3 allows local users to gain privileges by creating a symbolic link from an untrusted registry hive to a trusted registry hive, aka "Windows Kernel Symbolic Link Creation Vulnerability."

admin/cikkform.php in Netrix CMS 1.0 allows remote attackers to modify arbitrary pages via a direct request using the cid parameter.

TalkBack 2.3.14 does not properly restrict access to the edit comment feature (comments.php), which allows remote attackers to modify comments.
