Cisco voice products, when running the IBM Director Agent on IBM servers before OS 2000.2.6, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) via arbitrary packets to TCP port 14247, as demonstrated using port scanning.
Search vulnerabilities
Ipswitch WS_FTP Server 4.0.2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (disk consumption) and bypass file size restrictions via a REST command with a large size argument, followed by a STOR of a smaller file.
The SIOCGIFCONF ioctl (ifconf function) in FreeBSD 4.x through 4.11 and 5.x through 5.4 does not properly clear a buffer before using it, which allows local users to obtain portions of sensitive kernel memory.
Microsoft Internet Explorer 6 SP2 6.0.2900.2180 and 6.0.2800.1106, and earlier versions, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and execute arbitrary code via a Javascript BODY onload event that calls the window function, aka "Mismatched Document Object Model Objects Memory Corruption Vulnerability."
security flaw
Multiple "memory alignment errors" in libgadu, as used in ekg before 1.6rc2, Gaim before 1.5.0, and other packages, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (bus error) on certain architectures such as SPARC via an incoming message.
security flaw
Memory leak in the seq_file implementation in the SCSI procfs interface (sg.c) in Linux kernel 2.6.13 and earlier allows local users to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via certain repeated reads from the /proc/scsi/sg/devices file, which is not properly handled when the next() iterator returns NULL or an error.
libclamav/fsg.c in Clam AntiVirus (ClamAV) before 0.87 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop) via a crafted FSG packed executable.
security flaw
io-xpm.c in the gdk-pixbuf XPM image rendering library in GTK+ before 2.8.7 allows attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop) via a crafted XPM image with a large number of colors.
The cabd_find function in cabd.c of the libmspack library (mspack) for Clam AntiVirus (ClamAV) before 0.87.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop) via a crafted CAB file that causes cabd_find to be called with a zero length.
ialmnt5.sys in the ialmrnt5 display driver in Intel Graphics Accelerator Driver 6.14.10.4308 allows attackers to cause a denial of service (crash or screen resolution change) via a long text field, as demonstrated using a long window title.
Microsoft Windows Graphics Rendering Engine (GRE) allows remote attackers to corrupt memory and cause a denial of service (crash) via a WMF file containing (1) ExtCreateRegion or (2) ExtEscape function calls with arguments with inconsistent lengths.
The DM Primer (dmprimer.exe) in the DM Deployment Common Component in Computer Associates (CA) BrightStor Mobile Backup r4.0, BrightStor ARCserve Backup for Laptops & Desktops r11.0, r11.1, r11.1 SP1, Unicenter Remote Control 6.0, 6.0 SP1, CA Desktop Protection Suite r2, CA Server Protection Suite r2, and CA Business Protection Suite r2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption or application hang) via a large network packet, which causes a WSAEMESGSIZE error code that is not handled, leading to a thread exit.
The DM Primer in the DM Deployment Common Component in Computer Associates (CA) BrightStor Mobile Backup r4.0, BrightStor ARCserve Backup for Laptops & Desktops r11.0, r11.1, r11.1 SP1, Unicenter Remote Control 6.0, 6.0 SP1, CA Desktop Protection Suite r2, CA Server Protection Suite r2, and CA Business Protection Suite r2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption and log file consumption) via unspecified "unrecognized network messages" that are not properly handled.
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 "|".
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.
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.
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.
security flaw
The ftdi_sio driver (usb/serial/ftdi_sio.c) in Linux kernel 2.6.x up to 2.6.17, and possibly later versions, allows local users to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) by writing more data to the serial port than the hardware can handle, which causes the data to be queued.
security flaw
SCTP conntrack (ip_conntrack_proto_sctp.c) in netfilter for Linux kernel 2.6.17 before 2.6.17.3 and 2.6.16 before 2.6.16.23 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a packet without any chunks, which causes a variable to contain an invalid value that is later used to dereference a pointer.
Possible privilege escalation through prctl() and suid_dumpable
The suid_dumpable support in Linux kernel 2.6.13 up to versions before 2.6.17.4, and 2.6.16 before 2.6.16.24, allows a local user to cause a denial of service (disk consumption) and possibly gain privileges via the PR_SET_DUMPABLE argument of the prctl function and a program that causes a core dump file to be created in a directory for which the user does not have permissions.
