Netscape Communicator does not properly prevent a ServerSocket object from being created by untrusted entities, which allows remote attackers to create a server on the victim's system via a malicious applet, as demonstrated by Brown Orifice.
The shtml.exe component of Microsoft FrontPage 2000 Server Extensions 1.1 allows remote attackers to determine the physical path of the server components by requesting an invalid URL whose name includes a standard DOS device name.
The shtml.exe component of Microsoft FrontPage 2000 Server Extensions 1.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service in some components by requesting a URL whose name includes a standard DOS device name.
Buffer overflow in Pragma Systems TelnetServer 2000 version 4.0 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via a long series of null characters to the rexec port.
PCCS MySQLDatabase Admin Tool Manager 1.2.4 and earlier installs the file dbconnect.inc within the web root, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information such as the administrative password.
suidperl (aka sperl) does not properly cleanse the escape sequence "~!" before calling /bin/mail to send an error report, which allows local users to gain privileges by setting the "interactive" environmental variable and calling suidperl with a filename that contains the escape sequence.
The net.init rc script in HP-UX 11.00 (S008net.init) allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack that points from /tmp/stcp.conf to the targeted file.
Cisco Gigabit Switch Routers (GSR) with Fast Ethernet / Gigabit Ethernet cards, from IOS versions 11.2(15)GS1A up to 11.2(19)GS0.2 and some versions of 12.0, do not properly handle line card failures, which allows remote attackers to bypass ACLs or force the interface to stop forwarding packets.
Format string vulnerability in ftpd in HP-UX 10.20 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service or execute arbitrary commands via format strings in the PASS command.
The administration interface for the dwhttpd web server in Solaris AnswerBook2 allows interface users to remotely execute commands via shell metacharacters.
The administration interface for the dwhttpd web server in Solaris AnswerBook2 does not properly authenticate requests to its supporting CGI scripts, which allows remote attackers to add user accounts to the interface by directly calling the admin CGI script.
pgxconfig in the Raptor GFX configuration tool uses a relative path name for a system call to the "cp" program, which allows local users to execute arbitrary commands by modifying their path to point to an alternate "cp" program.
The faxrunq and faxrunqd in the mgetty package allows local users to create or modify arbitrary files via a symlink attack which creates a symlink in from /var/spool/fax/outgoing/.last_run to the target file.
Account Manager LITE does not properly authenticate attempts to change the administrator password, which allows remote attackers to gain privileges for the Account Manager by directly calling the amadmin.pl script with the setpasswd parameter.
Subscribe Me LITE does not properly authenticate attempts to change the administrator password, which allows remote attackers to gain privileges for the Account Manager by directly calling the subscribe.pl script with the setpwd parameter.
BEA WebLogic 5.1.x does not properly restrict access to the PageCompileServlet, which could allow remote attackers to compile and execute Java JHTML code by directly invoking the servlet on any source file.
BEA WebLogic 5.1.x does not properly restrict access to the JSPServlet, which could allow remote attackers to compile and execute Java JSP code by directly invoking the servlet on any source file.
BEA WebLogic 5.1.x allows remote attackers to read source code for parsed pages by inserting /ConsoleHelp/ into the URL, which invokes the FileServlet.
The CVS 1.10.8 server does not properly restrict users from creating arbitrary Checkin.prog or Update.prog programs, which allows remote CVS committers to modify or create Trojan horse programs with the Checkin.prog or Update.prog names, then performing a CVS commit action.
PGP 5.5.x through 6.5.3 does not properly check if an Additional Decryption Key (ADK) is stored in the signed portion of a public certificate, which allows an attacker who can modify a victim's public certificate to decrypt any data that has been encrypted with the modified certificate.
Netscape Communicator and Navigator 4.04 through 4.74 allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files by using a Java applet to open a connection to a URL using the "file", "http", "https", and "ftp" protocols, as demonstrated by Brown Orifice.
The URLConnection function in MacOS Runtime Java (MRJ) 2.1 and earlier and the Microsoft virtual machine (VM) for MacOS allows a malicious web site operator to connect to arbitrary hosts using a HTTP redirection, in violation of the Java security model.
Buffer overflow in Trivial HTTP (THTTPd) allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service or execute arbitrary commands via a long If-Modified-Since header.
Buffer overflows in the (1) outpack or (2) buf variables of ping in iputils before 20001010, as distributed on Red Hat Linux 6.2 through 7J and other operating systems, may allow local users to gain privileges.
ping in iputils before 20001010, as distributed on Red Hat Linux 6.2 through 7J and other operating systems, does not drop privileges after acquiring a raw socket, which increases ping's exposure to bugs that otherwise would occur at lower privileges.
Vulnerability in the mod_vhost_alias virtual hosting module for Apache 1.3.9, 1.3.11 and 1.3.12 allows remote attackers to obtain the source code for CGI programs if the cgi-bin directory is under the document root.
userhelper in the usermode package on Red Hat Linux executes non-setuid programs as root, which does not activate the security measures in glibc and allows the programs to be exploited via format string vulnerabilities in glibc via the LANG or LC_ALL environment variables (CVE-2000-0844).
Interactions between the CIFS Browser Protocol and NetBIOS as implemented in Microsoft Windows 95, 98, NT, and 2000 allow remote attackers to modify dynamic NetBIOS name cache entries via a spoofed Browse Frame Request in a unicast or UDP broadcast datagram.
