Vulnerability in login in HP-UX 11.00, 11.11, and 10.20 allows restricted shell users to bypass certain security checks and gain privileges.
RLPDaemon in HP-UX 10.20 and 11.0 allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files and gain privileges by specifying the target file in the -L option.
Multiple TCP implementations could allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (bandwidth and CPU exhaustion) by setting the maximum segment size (MSS) to a very small number and requesting large amounts of data, which generates more packets with less TCP-level data that amplify network traffic and consume more server CPU to process.
kmmodreg in HP-UX 11.11, 11.04 and 11.00 allows local users to create arbitrary world-writeable files via a symlink attack on the (1) /tmp/.kmmodreg_lock and (2) /tmp/kmpath.tmp temporary files.
Vulnerability in mkacct in HP-UX 11.04 running Virtualvault Operating System (VVOS) 4.0 and 4.5 allows attackers to elevate privileges.
HP-UX vgdisplay program gives root access to local users.
security flaw
Multiple shell programs on various Unix systems, including (1) tcsh, (2) csh, (3) sh, and (4) bash, follow symlinks when processing << redirects (aka here-documents or in-here documents), which allows local users to overwrite files of other users via a symlink attack.
registrar in the HP resource monitor service allows local users to read and modify arbitrary files by renaming the original registrar.log log file and creating a symbolic link to the target file, to which registrar appends log information and sets the permissions to be world readable.
The default FTP configuration in HP Visualize Conference allows conference users to send a file to other participants without authorization.
Vulnerability in auto_parms and set_parms in HP-UX 11.00 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands or cause a denial of service.
Buffer overflow in dtterm in HP-UX 11.0 and HP Tru64 UNIX 4.0f through 5.1a allows local users to execute arbitrary code via a long -tn option.
Buffer overflow in CDE Calendar Manager Service Daemon (rpc.cmsd).
HP-UX gwind program allows users to modify arbitrary files.
pcnfsd (aka rpc.pcnfsd) allows local users to change file permissions, or execute arbitrary commands through arguments in the RPC call.
Local user gains root privileges via buffer overflow in rdist, via expstr() function.
Unauthorized privileged access or denial of service via dtappgather program in CDE.
Buffer overflow in cu program in HP-UX 11.0 may allow local users to gain privileges via a long -l command line argument.
HP-UX 11.00 crontab allows local users to read arbitrary files via the -e option by creating a symlink to the target file during the crontab session, quitting the session, and reading the error messages that crontab generates.
Buffer overflow in TT_SESSION environment variable in ToolTalk shared library allows local users to gain root privileges.
