DATE CVE VULNERABILITY TITLE RISK
2004-03-03 CVE-2004-0114 Privilege Escalation vulnerability in BSD Kernel SHMAT System Call
The shmat system call in the System V Shared Memory interface for FreeBSD 5.2 and earlier, NetBSD 1.3 and earlier, and OpenBSD 2.6 and earlier, does not properly decrement a shared memory segment's reference count when the vm_map_find function fails, which could allow local users to gain read or write access to a portion of kernel memory and gain privileges.

2004-03-03 CVE-2004-0099 Unspecified vulnerability in Freebsd 5.1/5.2.1
mksnap_ffs in FreeBSD 5.1 and 5.2 only sets the snapshot flag when creating a snapshot for a file system, which causes default values for other flags to be used, possibly disabling security-critical settings and allowing a local user to bypass intended access restrictions.

2004-03-03 CVE-2004-0002 Unspecified vulnerability in Freebsd
The TCP MSS (maximum segment size) functionality in netinet allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (resource exhaustion) via (1) a low MTU, which causes a large number of small packets to be produced, or (2) via a large number of packets with a small TCP payload, which cause a large number of calls to the resource-intensive sowakeup function.
