2005-01-10 CVE-2004-1115 Local Security vulnerability in Linux
The init scripts in Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence (SETI) project 3.08-r3 and earlier execute user-owned programs with root privileges, which allows local users to gain privileges by modifying the programs.

2005-01-10 CVE-2004-1096 Archive::Zip Perl module before 1.14, when used by antivirus programs such as amavisd-new, allows remote attackers to bypass antivirus protection via a compressed file with both local and global headers set to zero, which does not prevent the compressed file from being opened on a target system. 7.5
2005-01-10 CVE-2004-1079 Local Buffer Overflow vulnerability in NCPFS
Buffer overflow in (1) ncplogin and (2) ncpmap in nwclient.c for ncpfs 2.2.4, and possibly other versions, may allow local users to gain privileges via a long -T option.

2005-01-10 CVE-2004-1076 Local Buffer Overflow vulnerability in Atari800 Emulator
Multiple buffer overflows in the RtConfigLoad function in rt-config.c for Atari800 before 1.3.4 allow local users to execute arbitrary code via large values in the configuration file.

2005-01-10 CVE-2004-1072 Local Privilege Escalation vulnerability in Linux Kernel BINFMT_ELF Loader
The binfmt_elf loader (binfmt_elf.c) in Linux kernel 2.4.x up to 2.4.27, and 2.6.x up to 2.6.8, may create an interpreter name string that is not NULL terminated, which could cause strings longer than PATH_MAX to be used, leading to buffer overflows that allow local users to cause a denial of service (hang) and possibly execute arbitrary code.

2005-01-10 CVE-2004-1071 Local Privilege Escalation vulnerability in Linux Kernel BINFMT_ELF Loader
The binfmt_elf loader (binfmt_elf.c) in Linux kernel 2.4.x up to 2.4.27, and 2.6.x up to 2.6.8, does not properly handle a failed call to the mmap function, which causes an incorrect mapped image and may allow local users to execute arbitrary code.

2005-01-10 CVE-2004-1070 Local Privilege Escalation vulnerability in Linux Kernel BINFMT_ELF Loader
The load_elf_binary function in the binfmt_elf loader (binfmt_elf.c) in Linux kernel 2.4.x up to 2.4.27, and 2.6.x up to 2.6.8, does not properly check return values from calls to the kernel_read function, which may allow local users to modify sensitive memory in a setuid program and execute arbitrary code.

2005-01-10 CVE-2004-1054 Unspecified vulnerability in IBM AIX
Untrusted execution path vulnerability in invscout in IBM AIX 5.1.0, 5.2.0, and 5.3.0 allows local users to gain privileges by modifying the PATH environment variable to point to a malicious "uname" program, which is executed from lsvpd after lsvpd has been invoked by invscout.

Untrusted execution path vulnerability in chcod on AIX IBM 5.1.0, 5.2.0, and 5.3.0 allows local users to execute arbitrary programs by modifying the PATH environment variable to point to a malicious "grep" program, which is executed from chcod.
