IBM AIX 5.3, 6.1, 7.1, and 7.2 contains a vulnerability in the rmsock command that may be used to expose kernel memory. IBM X-Force ID: 144748.

A software logic bug creates a vulnerability in an AIX 6.1, 7.1, and 7.2 daemon which could allow a user with root privileges on one system, to obtain root access on another machine. IBM X-force ID: 138117.

IBM AIX 5.3, 6.1, 7.1, and 7.2 contains an unspecified vulnerability that would allow a locally authenticated user to obtain root level privileges. IBM X-Force ID: 134067.

A flaw in the AIX 5.3, 6.1, 7.1, and 7.2 JRE/SDK installp and updatep packages prevented the java.security, java.policy and javaws.policy files from being updated correctly. IBM X-Force ID: 130809.

IBM AIX 6.1, 7.1, and 7.2 could allow a local user to gain root privileges using a specially crafted command within the bellmail client. IBM APARs: IV91006, IV91007, IV91008, IV91010, IV91011.

IBM AIX 5.3, 6.1, 7.1, and 7.2 contains an unspecified vulnerability that would allow a locally authenticated user to obtain root level privileges. IBM APARs: IV88658, IV87981, IV88419, IV87640, IV88053.

IBM AIX 6.1, 7.1, and 7.2 could allow a local user to exploit a vulnerability in the bellmail binary to gain root privileges.

Directory traversal vulnerability in Eclipse Help in IBM Tivoli Lightweight Infrastructure (aka LWI), as used in AIX 5.3, 6.1, and 7.1, allows remote authenticated users to read arbitrary files via a crafted URL.

The mustendd driver in IBM AIX 5.3, 6.1, 7.1, and 7.2 and VIOS 2.2.x, when the jumbo_frames feature is not enabled, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (FC1763 or FC5899 adapter crash) via crafted packets.

IBM AIX 5.3, 6.1, 7.1, and 7.2 and VIOS 2.2.x do not default to the latest TLS version, which makes it easier for man-in-the-middle attackers to obtain sensitive information via unspecified vectors.

CSPOC in IBM PowerHA SystemMirror on AIX 6.1 and 7.1 allows remote authenticated users to perform an "su root" action by leveraging presence on the cluster-wide password-change list.

netstat in IBM AIX 5.3, 6.1, and 7.1 and VIOS 2.2.x, when a fibre channel adapter is used, allows local users to gain privileges via unspecified vectors.

lquerylv in cmdlvm in IBM AIX 5.3, 6.1, and 7.1 and VIOS 2.2.x allows local users to gain privileges via a crafted DBGCMD_LQUERYLV environment-variable value.

The SSL protocol 3.0, as used in OpenSSL through 1.0.1i and other products, uses nondeterministic CBC padding, which makes it easier for man-in-the-middle attackers to obtain cleartext data via a padding-oracle attack, aka the "POODLE" issue.

The runtime linker in IBM AIX 6.1 and 7.1 and VIOS 2.2.x allows local users to create a mode-666 root-owned file, and consequently gain privileges, by setting crafted MALLOCOPTIONS and MALLOCBUCKETS environment-variable values and then executing a setuid program.

libodm.a in IBM AIX 6.1 and 7.1, and VIOS 2.2.x, allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on a temporary file. NOTE: this vulnerability exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2012-2179.

The ptrace system call in IBM AIX 5.3, 6.1, and 7.1, and VIOS 2.2.x, allows local users to cause a denial of service (system crash) or obtain sensitive information from kernel memory via a crafted PT_LDINFO operation.

Multiple buffer overflows in (1) mkque and (2) mkquedev in bos.rte.printers in IBM AIX 6.1 and 7.1 allow local users to gain privileges by leveraging printq group membership.

Multiple unspecified vulnerabilities in the InfiniBand subsystem in IBM AIX 6.1 and 7.1, and VIOS 2.2.2.2-FP-26 SP-02, allow local users to gain privileges via vectors involving (1) arp.ib or (2) ibstat.

The TFTP client in IBM AIX 6.1 and 7.1, and VIOS 2.2.2.2-FP-26 SP-02, when RBAC is enabled, allows remote authenticated users to bypass intended file-ownership restrictions, and read or overwrite arbitrary files, via unspecified vectors.
