Buffer overflow in ProFTPD, wu-ftpd, and beroftpd allows remote attackers to gain root access via a series of MKD and CWD commands that create nested directories.

Microsoft HTML control as used in (1) Internet Explorer 5.0, (2) FrontPage Express, (3) Outlook Express 5, and (4) Eudora, and possibly others, allows remote malicious web site or HTML emails to cause a denial of service (100% CPU consumption) via large HTML form fields such as text inputs in a table cell.

Denial of service in Debian IRC Epic/epic4 client via a long string.

Buffer overflow in Vixie Cron on Red Hat systems via the MAILTO environmental variable.

Vixie Cron on Linux systems allows local users to set parameters of sendmail commands via the MAILTO environmental variable.

Buffer overflow in Vixie cron allows local users to gain root access via a long MAILTO environment variable in a crontab file.

Internet Explorer 5.0 records the username and password for FTP servers in the URL history, which could allow (1) local users to read the information from another user's index.dat, or (2) people who are physically observing ("shoulder surfing") another user to read the information from the status bar when the user moves the mouse over a link.

Microsoft FrontPage stores form results in a default location in /_private/form_results.txt, which is world-readable and accessible in the document root, which allows remote attackers to read possibly sensitive information submitted by other users.

Windows NT 4.0 generates predictable random TCP initial sequence numbers (ISN), which allows remote attackers to perform spoofing and session hijacking.

The pt_chown command in Linux allows local users to modify TTY terminal devices that belong to other users.

Buffer overflow in WU-FTPD and related FTP servers allows remote attackers to gain root privileges via MAPPING_CHDIR.

Multiple buffer overflows in WindowMaker 0.52 through 0.60.0 allow attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary commands by executing WindowMaker with a long program name (argv[0]).

The default configuration of kdm in Caldera and Mandrake Linux, and possibly other distributions, allows XDMCP connections from any host, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information or bypass additional access restrictions.

The scriptlet.typelib ActiveX control is marked as "safe for scripting" for Internet Explorer, which allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary commands as demonstrated by Bubbleboy.

pg and pb in SuSE pbpg 1.x package allows an attacker to read arbitrary files.

Trn allows local users to overwrite other users' files via symlinks.

Nullsoft SHOUTcast server stores the administrative password in plaintext in a configuration file (sc_serv.conf), which could allow a local user to gain administrative privileges on the server.

Man2html 2.1 and earlier allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on a temporary file.

The Microsoft Jet database engine allows an attacker to execute commands via a database query, aka the "VBA Shell" vulnerability.

Vulnerability in Apache httpd before 1.3.11, when configured for mass virtual hosting using mod_rewrite, or mod_vhost_alias in Apache 1.3.9, allows remote attackers to retrieve arbitrary files.
