The x86-64 kernel system-call functionality in Xen 4.1.2 and earlier, as used in Citrix XenServer 6.0.2 and earlier and other products; Oracle Solaris 11 and earlier; illumos before r13724; Joyent SmartOS before 20120614T184600Z; FreeBSD before 9.0-RELEASE-p3; NetBSD 6.0 Beta and earlier; Microsoft Windows Server 2008 R2 and R2 SP1 and Windows 7 Gold and SP1; and possibly other operating systems, when running on an Intel processor, incorrectly uses the sysret path in cases where a certain address is not a canonical address, which allows local users to gain privileges via a crafted application. NOTE: because this issue is due to incorrect use of the Intel specification, it should have been split into separate identifiers; however, there was some value in preserving the original mapping of the multi-codebase coordinated-disclosure effort to a single identifier.

lpd daemon (in.lpd) in Solaris 8 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via a job request with a crafted control file that is not properly handled when lpd invokes a mail program. NOTE: this might be the same vulnerability as CVE-2000-1220.

Heap overflow in xlock in Solaris 2.6 through 8 allows local users to gain root privileges via a long (1) XFILESEARCHPATH or (2) XUSERFILESEARCHPATH environmental variable.

Buffer overflow in mailx in Solaris 8 and earlier allows a local attacker to gain additional privileges via a long '-F' command line option.

FTP server in Solaris 8 and earlier allows local and remote attackers to cause a core dump in the root directory, possibly with world-readable permissions, by providing a valid username with an invalid password followed by a CWD ~ command, which could release sensitive information such as shadowed passwords, or fill the disk partition.

Buffer overflow in tip in Solaris 8 and earlier allows local users to execute arbitrary commands via a long HOME environmental variable.

Buffer overflow in /usr/bin/cu in Solaris 2.8 and earlier, and possibly other operating systems, allows local users to gain privileges by executing cu with a long program name (arg0).

Buffer overflow in ufsrestore in Solaris 8 and earlier allows local users to gain root privileges via a long pathname.

Multiple unspecified vulnerabilities in sendmail 5, as installed on Sun SunOS 4.1.3_U1 and 4.1.4, have unspecified attack vectors and impact. NOTE: this might overlap CVE-1999-0129.

The ToolTalk ttsession daemon uses weak RPC authentication, which allows a remote attacker to execute commands.

The Red Hat Linux su program does not log failed password guesses if the su process is killed before it times out, which allows local attackers to conduct brute force password guessing.

cmdtool in OpenWindows 3.0 and XView 3.0 in SunOS 4.1.4 and earlier allows attackers with physical access to the system to display unechoed characters (such as those from password prompts) via the L2/AGAIN key.

Buffer overflow in BNU UUCP daemon (uucpd) through long hostnames.

SunOS rpc.cmsd allows attackers to obtain root access by overwriting arbitrary files.

Teardrop IP denial of service.

A later variation on the Teardrop IP denial of service attack, a.k.a. Teardrop-2.

FTP servers can allow an attacker to connect to arbitrary ports on machines other than the FTP client, aka FTP bounce.

Land IP denial of service.

The AIX FTP client can be forced to execute commands from a malicious server through shell metacharacters (e.g. a pipe character).

In SunOS or Solaris, a remote user could connect from an FTP server's data port to an rlogin server on a host that trusts the FTP server, allowing remote command execution.
