The getipnodebyname() API in AIX 5.1 and 5.2 does not properly close sockets, which allows attackers to cause a denial of service (resource exhaustion).

Buffer overflow in rcp for AIX 4.3.3, 5.1 and 5.2 allows local users to gain privileges.

A "potential buffer overflow in ruleset parsing" for Sendmail 8.12.9, when using the nonstandard rulesets (1) recipient (2), final, or (3) mailer-specific envelope recipients, has unknown consequences.

The prescan function in Sendmail 8.12.9 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via buffer overflow attacks, as demonstrated using the parseaddr function in parseaddr.c.

Format string vulnerability in lpd in the bos.rte.printers fileset for AIX 4.3 through 5.2, with debug enabled, allows local users to cause a denial of service (crash) or gain root privileges.

Format string vulnerability in tsm for the bos.rte.security fileset on AIX 5.2 allows remote attackers to gain root privileges via login, and local users to gain privileges via login, su, or passwd, with a username that contains format string specifiers.

IBM AIX 5.2 and earlier distributes Sendmail with a configuration file (sendmail.cf) with the (1) promiscuous_relay, (2) accept_unresolvable_domains, and (3) accept_unqualified_senders features enabled, which allows Sendmail to be used as an open mail relay for sending spam e-mail.

dump_smutil.sh in IBM AIX allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on temporary files.

Buffer overflow in nslookup in IBM AIX may allow attackers to cause a denial of service or execute arbitrary code.

Integer overflow in the xdrmem_getbytes() function, and possibly other functions, of XDR (external data representation) libraries derived from SunRPC, including libnsl, libc, glibc, and dietlibc, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via certain integer values in length fields, a different vulnerability than CVE-2002-0391.

The dtterm terminal emulator allows attackers to modify the window title via a certain character escape sequence and then insert it back to the command line in the user's terminal, e.g. when the user views a file containing the malicious sequence, which could allow the attacker to execute arbitrary commands.

Buffer overflow in lscfg of unknown versions of AIX has unknown impact.

Buffer overflow in the diagnostics library in AIX allows local users to "cause data and instructions to be overwritten" via a long DIAGNOSTICS environment variable.

Unknown vulnerability in the WebSecure (DFSWeb) configuration utilities in AIX 4.x, possibly related to relative pathnames.

Unknown vulnerability in DCE (1) SMIT panels and (2) configuration commands, possibly related to relative pathnames.

Buffer overflow in Common Desktop Environment (CDE) ToolTalk RPC database server (rpc.ttdbserverd) allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via an argument to the _TT_CREATE_FILE procedure.

clchkspuser and clpasswdremote in AIX expose an encrypted password in the cspoc.log file, which could allow local users to gain privileges.

CDE ToolTalk database server (ttdbserver) allows remote attackers to overwrite arbitrary memory locations with a zero, and possibly gain privileges, via a file descriptor argument in an AUTH_UNIX procedure call, which is used as a table index by the _TT_ISCLOSE procedure.

CDE ToolTalk database server (ttdbserver) allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on the transaction log file used by the _TT_TRANSACTION RPC procedure.

Buffer overflow in the file_comp function in rcp for IBM AIX 4.3.x and 5.1 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code.
