Windows NT 4.0 SP2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash), possibly via malformed inputs or packets, such as those generated by a Linux smbmount command that was compiled on the Linux 2.0.29 kernel but executed on Linux 2.0.25.

Buffer overflow in TestChip function in XFree86 SuperProbe in Slackware Linux 3.1 allows local users to gain root privileges via a long -nopr argument.

ypbind with -ypset and -ypsetme options activated in Linux Slackware and SunOS allows local and remote attackers to overwrite files via a .. (dot dot) attack.

rcp on various Linux systems including Red Hat 4.0 allows a "nobody" user or other user with UID of 65535 to overwrite arbitrary files, since 65535 is interpreted as -1 by chown and other system calls, which causes the calls to fail to modify the ownership of the file.

Buffer overflow in lpr, as used in BSD-based systems including Linux, allows local users to execute arbitrary code as root via a long -C (classification) command line option.

The dip program on many Linux systems allows local users to gain root access via a buffer overflow.

rxvt, when compiled with the PRINT_PIPE option in various Linux operating systems including Linux Slackware 3.0 and RedHat 2.1, allows local users to gain root privileges by specifying a malicious program using the -print-pipe command line parameter.

Race condition in Linux mailx command allows local users to read user files.

Buffer overflow in Linux splitvt command gives root access to local users.

Some configurations of NIS+ in Linux allowed attackers to log in as the user "+".

Remote attackers can access mail files via POP3 in some Linux systems that are using shadow passwords.

rpc.lockd in Red Hat Linux 6.1 and 6.2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via a malformed request.
