Weekly Vulnerabilities Reports > July 21 to 27, 2003

Buffer overflow in webfs before 1.17.1 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via an HTTP request with a long Request-URI.

Buffer overflow in search.cgi for mnoGoSearch 3.2.10 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long tmplt parameter.

Buffer overflow in search.cgi for mnoGoSearch 3.1.20 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long ul parameter.

Buffer overflow in net_swapscore for typespeed 0.4.1 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code.

Multiple buffer overflows in gnocatan 0.6.1 and earlier allow attackers to execute arbitrary code.

Buffer overflow in mikmod 3.1.6 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via an archive file that contains a file with a long filename.

Buffer overflow in the streaming media component for logging multicast requests in the ISAPI for the logging capability of Microsoft Windows Media Services (nsiislog.dll), as installed in IIS 5.0, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a large POST request to nsiislog.dll.

A certain Microsoft Windows Media Player 9 Series ActiveX control allows remote attackers to view and manipulate the Media Library on the local system via HTML script.

The Custom HTTP Errors capability in Internet Explorer 5.01, 5.5 and 6.0 allows remote attackers to execute script in the Local Zone via an argument to shdocvw.dll that causes a "javascript:" link to be generated.

SMC Networks Barricade Wireless Cable/DSL Broadband Router SMC7004VWBR allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via certain packets to PPTP port 1723 on the internal interface.

The Linux 2.0 kernel IP stack does not properly calculate the size of an ICMP citation, which causes it to include portions of unauthorized memory in ICMP error responses.

Unknown vulnerability in Apple File Service (AFP Server) for Mac OS X Server, when sharing files on a UFS or re-shared NFS volume, allows remote attackers to overwrite arbitrary files.

lyskom-server 2.0.7 and earlier allows unauthenticated users to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) via a large query.

ypserv NIS server before 2.7 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via a TCP client request that does not respond to the server, which causes ypserv to block.

Solaris 8 with IPv6 enabled allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (kernel panic) via a crafted IPv6 packet.

pam_wheel in Linux-PAM 0.78, with the trust option enabled and the use_uid option disabled, allows local users to spoof log entries and gain privileges by causing getlogin() to return a spoofed user name.

nethack 3.4.0 and earlier installs certain setgid binaries with insecure permissions, which allows local users to gain privileges by replacing the original binaries with malicious code.

Cross-site scripting (XSS) in Internet Explorer 5.5 and 6.0, possibly in a component that is also used by other Microsoft products, allows remote attackers to insert arbitrary web script via an XML file that contains a parse error, which inserts the script in the resulting error message.

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the transparent SID support capability for PHP before 4.3.2 (session.use_trans_sid) allows remote attackers to insert arbitrary script via the PHPSESSID parameter.

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the secure redirect function of RSA ACE/Agent 5.0 for Windows, and 5.x for Web, allows remote attackers to insert arbitrary web script and possibly cause users to enter a passphrase via a GET request containing the script.

Portmon 1.7 and possibly earlier versions allows local users to read and write arbitrary files via the (1) -c (host file) or (2) -l (log file) command line options.

dexconf in XFree86 Xserver 4.1.0-2 creates the /dev/dri directory with insecure permissions (666), which allows local users to replace or create files in the root file system.

Integer signedness error in the Linux Socket Filter implementation (filter.c) in Linux 2.4.3-pre3 to 2.4.22-pre10 allows attackers to cause a denial of service (crash).

Multiple vulnerabilities in noweb 2.9 and earlier creates temporary files insecurely, which allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via multiple vectors including the noroff script.

Unknown vulnerability in patches 108993-14 through 108993-19 and 108994-14 through 108994-19 for Solaris 8 may allow local users to cause a denial of service (automountd crash).

eldav WebDAV client for Emacs, version 0.7.2 and earlier, allows local users to create or overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on temporary files.
