HP Ignite-UX does not save /etc/passwd when it creates an image of a trusted system, which can set the password field to a blank and allow an attacker to gain privileges.

The dtterm terminal emulator allows attackers to modify the window title via a certain character escape sequence and then insert it back to the command line in the user's terminal, e.g. when the user views a file containing the malicious sequence, which could allow the attacker to execute arbitrary commands.

Buffer overflow in passwd for HP UX B.10.20 allows local users to execute arbitrary commands with root privileges via a long LANG environment variable.

The PMTU discovery procedure used by HP-UX 10.30 and 11.00 for determining the optimum MTU generates large amounts of traffic in response to small packets, allowing remote attackers to cause the system to be used as a packet amplifier.

ICMP messages to broadcast addresses are allowed, allowing for a Smurf attack that can cause a denial of service.

security flaw

The prescan() function in the address parser (parseaddr.c) in Sendmail before 8.12.9 does not properly handle certain conversions from char and int types, which can cause a length check to be disabled when Sendmail misinterprets an input value as a special "NOCHAR" control value, allowing attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary code via a buffer overflow attack using messages, a different vulnerability than CVE-2002-1337.

security flaw

Integer overflow in the xdrmem_getbytes() function, and possibly other functions, of XDR (external data representation) libraries derived from SunRPC, including libnsl, libc, glibc, and dietlibc, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via certain integer values in length fields, a different vulnerability than CVE-2002-0391.

security flaw

Buffer overflow in the call_trans2open function in trans2.c for Samba 2.2.x before 2.2.8a, 2.0.10 and earlier 2.0.x versions, and Samba-TNG before 0.3.2, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code.

Multiple buffer overflows in kermit in HP-UX 10.20 and 11.00 (C-Kermit 6.0.192 and possibly other versions before 8.0) allow local users to gain privileges via long arguments to (1) ask, (2) askq, (3) define, (4) assign, and (5) getc, some of which may share the same underlying function "doask," a different vulnerability than CVE-2001-0085.

security flaw

A "potential buffer overflow in ruleset parsing" for Sendmail 8.12.9, when using the nonstandard rulesets (1) recipient (2), final, or (3) mailer-specific envelope recipients, has unknown consequences.

Unspecified vulnerability in the ied command in HP-UX 10.10, 10.20, and 11.0 allows local users to view "normally invisible data" via unknown attack vectors.

Buffer overflow in dtprintinfo on HP-UX 11.00, and possibly other operating systems, allows local users to gain root privileges via a long DISPLAY environment variable.

HP asecure creates the Audio Security File audio.sec with insecure permissions, which allows local users to cause a denial of service or gain additional privileges.

Partition Manager (parmgr) in HP-UX B.11.23 does not properly validate certificates that are provided by the cimserver, which allows attackers to obtain sensitive data or gain privileges.

Unknown vulnerability in diagmond and possibly other applications in HP9000 Series 700/800 running HP-UX B.11.00, B.11.04, B.11.11, and B.11.22 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (program failure) via certain network traffic.

Buffer overflow in rexec on HP-UX B.10.20, B.11.00, and B.11.04, when setuid root, may allow local users to gain privileges via a long -l option.

The Xserver for HP-UX 11.22 was not properly built, which introduced a vulnerability that allows local users to gain privileges.

shar on HP-UX B.11.00, B.11.04, and B.11.11 creates temporary files with predictable names in /tmp, which allows local users to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary code via a symlink attack.

The "file handling" in sort in HP-UX 10.01 through 10.20, and 11.00 through 11.11 is "incorrect," which allows attackers to gain access or cause a denial of service via unknown vectors.

Unspecified vulnerability in xntpd of HP-UX 10.20 through 11.11 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (hang) via unknown attack vectors.
