security flaw

Concurrency vulnerability in Mozilla Firefox 1.5.0.6 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via multiple Javascript timed events that load a deeply nested XML file, followed by redirecting the browser to another page, which leads to a concurrency failure that causes structures to be freed incorrectly, as demonstrated by (1) ffoxdie and (2) ffoxdie3. NOTE: it has been reported that Netscape 8.1 and K-Meleon 1.0.1 are also affected by ffoxdie. Mozilla confirmed to CVE that ffoxdie and ffoxdie3 trigger the same underlying vulnerability. NOTE: it was later reported that Firefox 2.0 RC2 and 1.5.0.7 are also affected.

security flaw

The PLUGINSPAGE functionality in Mozilla Firefox before 1.5.0.4 allows remote user-assisted attackers to execute privileged code by tricking a user into installing missing plugins and selecting the "Manual Install" button, then using nested javascript: URLs. NOTE: the manual install button is used for downloading software from a remote web site, so this issue would not cross privilege boundaries if the user progresses to the point of installing malicious software from the attacker-controlled site.

Untrusted search path vulnerability in Winlogon in Microsoft Windows 2000 SP4, when SafeDllSearchMode is disabled, allows local users to gain privileges via a malicious DLL in the UserProfile directory, aka "User Profile Elevation of Privilege Vulnerability."

lynx arbitrary command execution

Lynx 2.8.5, and other versions before 2.8.6dev.15, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via (1) lynxcgi:, (2) lynxexec, and (3) lynxprog links, which are not properly restricted in the default configuration in some environments.

BT Voyager 2091 Wireless firmware 2.21.05.08m_A2pB018c1.d16d and earlier, and 3.01m and earlier, allow remote attackers to bypass the authentication process and gain sensitive information, such as configuration information via (1) /btvoyager_getconfig.sh, PPP credentials via (2) btvoyager_getpppcreds.sh, and decode configuration credentials via (3) btvoyager_decoder.c.

Worker Filemanager 1.0 through 2.7 sets the permissions on the destination directory to world-readable and executable while copying data, which could allow local users to obtain sensitive information.

Multiple Check Point Zone Labs ZoneAlarm products before 7.0.362, including ZoneAlarm Security Suite 5.5.062.004 and 6.5.737, use insecure default permissions for critical files, which allows local users to gain privileges or bypass security controls.

traceroute in Sun Solaris 10 on x86 systems allows local users to execute arbitrary code with PRIV_NET_RAWACCESS privileges via (1) a large number of -g arguments or (2) a malformed -s argument with a trailing . (dot).

The runtime linker (ld.so) in Solaris 8, 9, and 10 trusts the LD_AUDIT environment variable in setuid or setgid programs, which allows local users to gain privileges by (1) modifying LD_AUDIT to reference malicious code and possibly (2) using a long value for LD_AUDIT.

Interpretation conflict in Fortinet FortiGate 2.8, running FortiOS 2.8MR10 and v3beta, allows remote attackers to bypass the URL blocker via an (1) HTTP request terminated with a line feed (LF) and not carriage return line feed (CRLF) or (2) HTTP request with no Host field, which is still processed by most web servers without violating RFC2616.

htpasswd, as used in Acme thttpd 2.25b and possibly other products such as Apache, might allow local users to gain privileges via shell metacharacters in a command line argument, which is used in a call to the system function. NOTE: since htpasswd is normally installed as a non-setuid program, and the exploit is through command line options, perhaps this issue should not be included in CVE. However, if there are some typical or recommended configurations that use htpasswd with sudo privileges, or common products that access htpasswd remotely, then perhaps it should be included.

Unquoted Windows search path vulnerability in RealNetworks RealPlayer 10.5 6.0.12.1040 through 6.0.12.1348, RealPlayer 10, RealOne Player v2, RealOne Player v1, and RealPlayer 8 before 20060322 might allow local users to gain privileges via a malicious C:\program.exe file.

fantastico in Cpanel does not properly handle when it has insufficient permissions to perform certain file operations, which allows remote authenticated users to obtain the full pathname, which is leaked in a PHP error message.

Unquoted Windows search path vulnerability in iTunesHelper.exe in iTunes 4.7.1.30 and iTunes 5 for Windows might allow local users to gain privileges via a malicious C:\program.exe file.

security flaw

useradd in shadow-utils before 4.0.3, and possibly other versions before 4.0.8, does not provide a required argument to the open function when creating a new user mailbox, which causes the mailbox to be created with unpredictable permissions and possibly allows attackers to read or modify the mailbox.

PlanetMoon Guestbook tr3.a stores sensitive information under the web root with insufficient access control, which allows remote attackers to obtain the admin script password, and other passwords, via a direct request to files/passwd.txt.

Unrestricted file upload vulnerability in uploader.php in Uploader 1.1 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by uploading a file with an executable extension, then accessing it via a direct request to the file in uploads/.

NewsPHP allows remote attackers to gain unauthorized administrative access by setting a cookie to the "autorized=admin; root=admin" value.

Zen Cart before 1.2.7 does not protect the admin/includes directory, which allows remote attackers to cause unknown impact via unspecified vectors, probably direct requests.

imageVue 16.1 allows remote attackers to obtain folder permission settings via a direct request to dir.php, which returns an XML document that lists folders and their permissions.
