Apple Safari 3.2.1 (aka AppVer 3.525.27.1) on Windows allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop or access violation) via a link to an http URI in which the authority (aka hostname) portion is either a (1) . (dot) or (2) .. (dot dot) sequence.

Open redirect vulnerability in cs.html in the Autonomy (formerly Verity) Ultraseek search engine allows remote attackers to redirect users to arbitrary web sites and conduct phishing attacks via the url parameter.

Firefox Chrome privilege escalation via local .desktop files

Mozilla Firefox before 3.0.6 and SeaMonkey do not block links to the (1) about:plugins and (2) about:config URIs from .desktop files, which allows user-assisted remote attackers to bypass the Same Origin Policy and execute arbitrary code with chrome privileges via vectors involving the URL field in a Desktop Entry section of a .desktop file, related to representation of about: URIs as jar:file:// URIs. NOTE: this issue exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2008-4582.

The SSL certificate setup program (genSslCert.sh) in Standards Based Linux Instrumentation for Manageability (SBLIM) sblim-sfcb 1.3.2 allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on the (1) /var/tmp/key.pem, (2) /var/tmp/cert.pem, and (3) /var/tmp/ssl.cnf temporary files.

Open redirect vulnerability in the web interface in the Rockwell Automation ControlLogix 1756-ENBT/A EtherNet/IP Bridge Module allows remote attackers to redirect users to arbitrary web sites and conduct phishing attacks via unspecified vectors.

Sun xVM VirtualBox 2.0.0, 2.0.2, 2.0.4, 2.0.6r39760, 2.1.0, 2.1.2, and 2.1.4r42893 on Linux allows local users to gain privileges via a hardlink attack, which preserves setuid/setgid bits on Linux, related to DT_RPATH:$ORIGIN.

guilt 0.27 allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on a guilt.log.[PID] temporary file.

lib/prefs.tcl in Cecilia 2.0.5 allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on the csvers temporary file.

iscsi-initiator-utils: unsafe tmp file use in iscsi_discovery script

iscsi_discovery in open-iscsi in SUSE openSUSE 10.3 through 11.1 and SUSE Linux Enterprise (SLE) 10 SP2 and 11, and other operating systems, allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on an unspecified temporary file that has a predictable name.

aptlinex before 0.91 allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on the gambas-apt.lock temporary file.

uulib/uunconc.c in UUDeview 0.5.20, as used in nzbget before 0.3.0 and possibly other products, allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on a temporary filename generated by the tempnam function. NOTE: this may be a CVE-2004-2265 regression.

inetd on Sun Solaris 10, when debug logging is enabled, allows local users to write to arbitrary files via a symlink attack on the /var/tmp/inetd.log temporary file.

Launch Services in Apple Mac OS X before 10.5, when Open Safe Files is enabled, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a symlink attack, probably related to a race condition and automatic execution of a downloaded file.

opensuse-updater in openSUSE 10.2 allows local users to access arbitrary files via a symlink attack.

Open redirect vulnerability in claroline/redirector.php in Claroline before 1.8.10 allows remote attackers to redirect users to arbitrary web sites and conduct phishing attacks via a URL in the url parameter.

Unspecified vulnerability in Links before 2.1, when "only proxies" is enabled, has unknown impact and attack vectors related to providing "URLs to external programs."

phpMyAdmin before 2.11.8 does not sufficiently prevent its pages from using frames that point to pages in other domains, which makes it easier for remote attackers to conduct spoofing or phishing activities via a cross-site framing attack.

jasper: temporary file creation race in jas_stream_tmpfile()

Race condition in the jas_stream_tmpfile function in libjasper/base/jas_stream.c in JasPer 1.900.1 allows local users to cause a denial of service (program exit) by creating the appropriate tmp.XXXXXXXXXX temporary file, which causes Jasper to exit. NOTE: this was originally reported as a symlink issue, but this was incorrect. NOTE: some vendors dispute the severity of this issue, but it satisfies CVE's requirements for inclusion.
