mysql: mysqlaccess creates/overwrite files on the system

The mysqlaccess script in MySQL 4.0.23 and earlier, 4.1.x before 4.1.10, 5.0.x before 5.0.3, and other versions including 3.x, allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files or read temporary files via a symlink attack on temporary files.

security flaw

Firefox before 1.0.4 and Mozilla Suite before 1.7.8 do not properly limit privileges of Javascript eval and Script objects in the calling context, which allows remote attackers to conduct unauthorized activities via "non-DOM property overrides," a variant of CVE-2005-1160.

ReadMessage.jsp in JavaMail API 1.1.3 through 1.3, as used by Apache Tomcat 5.0.16, allows remote attackers to view other users' e-mail attachments via a direct request to /mailboxesdir/username@domainname. NOTE: Sun and Apache dispute this issue. Sun states: "The report makes references to source code and files that do not exist in the mentioned products.

Authorization Services in securityd for Apple Mac OS X 10.3.9 allows local users to gain privileges by granting themselves certain rights that should be restricted to administrators.

DownFile 1.3 allows remote attackers to gain administrator privileges via a direct request to (1) update.php, (2) del.php, and (3) add_form.php.

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.

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.

print_all_bug_page.php in Mantis 0.17.3 and earlier does not verify the limit_reporters option, which allows remote attackers to view bug summaries for bugs that would otherwise be restricted.

security flaw

The VT implementation (vt_ioctl.c) in Linux kernel 2.6.12, and possibly other versions including 2.6.14.4, allows local users to use the KDSKBSENT ioctl on terminals of other users and gain privileges, as demonstrated by modifying key bindings using loadkeys.

security flaw

The rose_rt_ioctl function in rose_route.c for Radionet Open Source Environment (ROSE) in Linux 2.6 kernels before 2.6.12, and 2.4 before 2.4.29, does not properly verify the ndigis argument for a new route, which allows attackers to trigger array out-of-bounds errors with a large number of digipeats.

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.

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.

Mozilla Firefox 1.5 before 1.5.0.2 and SeaMonkey before 1.0.1 causes certain windows to become translucent due to an interaction between XUL content windows and the history mechanism, which might allow user-assisted remote attackers to trick users into executing arbitrary code.

Unspecified vulnerability in Firefox and Thunderbird 1.5 before 1.5.0.2, and SeaMonkey before 1.0.1, allows remote attackers to bypass the js_ValueToFunctionObject check and execute arbitrary code via unknown vectors involving setTimeout and Firefox' ForEach method.

security flaw

Mozilla Firefox and Thunderbird 1.x before 1.5 and 1.0.x before 1.0.8, Mozilla Suite before 1.7.13, and SeaMonkey before 1.0 does not properly protect the compilation scope of privileged built-in XBL bindings, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via the (1) valueOf.call or (2) valueOf.apply methods of an XBL binding, or (3) "by inserting an XBL method into the DOM's document.body prototype chain."

security flaw

Mozilla Firefox and Thunderbird 1.x before 1.5 and 1.0.x before 1.0.8, Mozilla Suite before 1.7.13, and SeaMonkey before 1.0 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by using an eval in an XBL method binding (XBL.method.eval) to create Javascript functions that are compiled with extra privileges.

phpGraphy 0.9.11 and earlier allows remote attackers to bypass authentication and gain administrator privileges via a direct request to index.php with the editwelcome parameter set to 1, which can then be used to modify the main page to inject arbitrary HTML and web script. NOTE: XSS attacks are resultant from this issue, since normal functionality allows the admin to modify pages.

Spytech SpyAnywhere 1.50 allows remote attackers to gain administrator access via a single character in the "loginpass" field.

HAMweather 2.x allows remote attackers to modify administrative settings and obtain sensitive information via a direct request to hwadmin.cgi.

Ensim WEBppliance 3.0 and 3.1 allows remote attackers to read mail intended for other users by defining an alias that is the target's email address.
