Buffer overflow in kon program in Kanji on Console (KON) package on Linux may allow local users to gain root privileges via a long -StartupMessage parameter.

Vulnerability in cvconnect in SGI IRIX WorkShop allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files.

AIX cdmount allows local users to gain root privileges via shell metacharacters.

Servlet examples in Allaire JRun 2.3.x allow remote attackers to obtain sensitive information, e.g.

LeafChat 1.7 IRC client allows a remote IRC server to cause a denial of service by rapidly sending a large amount of error messages.

The default configuration of NetWin dMailWeb and cwMail trusts all POP servers, which allows attackers to bypass normal authentication and cause a denial of service.

NetWin dMailWeb and cwMail 2.6g and earlier allows remote attackers to bypass authentication and use the server for mail relay via a username that contains a carriage return.

JSP sample files in Allaire JRun 2.3.x allow remote attackers to access arbitrary files (e.g.

NetWin dMailWeb and cwMail 2.6g and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via a long username parameter.

NetWin dMailWeb and cwMail 2.6i and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via a long POP parameter (pophost).

CUPS (Common Unix Printing System) 1.04 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service by authenticating with a user name that does not exist or does not have a shadow password.

CUPS (Common Unix Printing System) 1.04 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via a CGI POST request.

CUPS (Common Unix Printing System) 1.04 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via a malformed IPP request.

The default configuration of BEA WebLogic 5.1.0 allows a remote attacker to view source code of programs by requesting a URL beginning with /file/, which causes the default servlet to display the file without further processing.

Net Tools PKI Server allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via a long HTTP request.

Secure Locate (slocate) in Red Hat Linux allows local users to gain privileges via a malformed configuration file that is specified in the LOCATE_PATH environmental variable.

IRIX crontab creates temporary files with predictable file names and with the umask of the user, which could allow local users to modify another user's crontab file as it is being edited.

SGI MIPSPro compilers C, C++, F77 and F90 generate temporary files in /tmp with predictable file names, which could allow local users to insert malicious contents into these files as they are being compiled by another user.
