2010-08-10 CVE-2010-0834 Improper Authentication vulnerability in Ubuntu Linux 10.04/9.10
The base-files package before 5.0.0ubuntu7.1 on Ubuntu 9.10 and before 5.0.0ubuntu20.10.04.2 on Ubuntu 10.04 LTS, as shipped on Dell Latitude 2110 netbooks, does not require authentication for package installation, which allows remote archive servers and man-in-the-middle attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted package.

2005-12-31 CVE-2005-3625 Resource Management Errors vulnerability in multiple products
Xpdf, as used in products such as gpdf, kpdf, pdftohtml, poppler, teTeX, CUPS, libextractor, and others, allows attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop) via streams that end prematurely, as demonstrated using the (1) CCITTFaxDecode and (2) DCTDecode streams, aka "Infinite CPU spins."

2005-03-01 CVE-2004-0989 Remote Stack Buffer Overflow vulnerability in Libxml2
Multiple buffer overflows in libXML 2.6.12 and 2.6.13 (libxml2), and possibly other versions, may allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via (1) a long FTP URL that is not properly handled by the xmlNanoFTPScanURL function, (2) a long proxy URL containing FTP data that is not properly handled by the xmlNanoFTPScanProxy function, and other overflows related to manipulation of DNS length values, including (3) xmlNanoFTPConnect, (4) xmlNanoHTTPConnectHost, and (5) xmlNanoHTTPConnectHost.

2005-01-27 CVE-2004-0888 Integer Overflow vulnerability in Xpdf PDFTOPS
Multiple integer overflows in xpdf 2.0 and 3.0, and other packages that use xpdf code such as CUPS, gpdf, and kdegraphics, allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code, a different set of vulnerabilities than those identified by CVE-2004-0889.

2005-01-27 CVE-2004-0889 Integer Overflow vulnerability in Xpdf PDFTOPS
Multiple integer overflows in xpdf 3.0, and other packages that use xpdf code such as CUPS, allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code, a different set of vulnerabilities than those identified by CVE-2004-0888.

2005-01-27 CVE-2004-0891 Buffer overflow in the MSN protocol handler for gaim 0.79 to 1.0.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via an "unexpected sequence of MSNSLP messages" that results in an unbounded copy operation that writes to the wrong buffer.

2005-01-10 CVE-2004-1011 Stack-based buffer overflow in Cyrus IMAP Server 2.2.4 through 2.2.8, with the imapmagicplus option enabled, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long (1) PROXY or (2) LOGIN command, a different vulnerability than CVE-2004-1015. 10.0
2005-01-10 CVE-2004-1012 The argument parser of the PARTIAL command in Cyrus IMAP Server 2.2.6 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to execute arbitrary code via a certain command ("body[p") that is treated as a different command ("body.peek") and causes an index increment error that leads to an out-of-bounds memory corruption. 10.0
