Untrusted execution path vulnerability in invscout in IBM AIX 5.1.0, 5.2.0, and 5.3.0 allows local users to gain privileges by modifying the PATH environment variable to point to a malicious "uname" program, which is executed from lsvpd after lsvpd has been invoked by invscout.

The Inventory Scout daemon (invscoutd) 1.3.0.0 and 2.0.2 for AIX 4.3.3 and 5.1 allows local users to gain privileges via a symlink attack on a command line argument (log file). NOTE: this might be related to CVE-2006-5002.

Untrusted execution path vulnerability in the diag commands (1) lsmcode, (2) diag_exec, (3) invscout, and (4) invscoutd in AIX 5.1 through 5.3 allows local users to execute arbitrary programs by modifying the DIAGNOSTICS environment variable to point to a malicious Dctrl program.

AIX 4.3.3 through AIX 5.1, when direct remote login is disabled, displays a different message if the password is correct, which allows remote attackers to guess the password via brute force methods.

ISC BIND 8.3.x before 8.3.7, and 8.4.x before 8.4.3, allows remote attackers to poison the cache via a malicious name server that returns negative responses with a large TTL (time-to-live) value.

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.

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.

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

Buffer overflow in rpc.yppasswdd (yppasswd server) in AIX allows attackers to gain unauthorized access via a long string. NOTE: due to lack of details in the vendor advisory, it is not clear if this is the same issue as CVE-2001-0779.

Unknown vulnerability in login for AIX 5.1L, when using loadable authentication modules, allows remote attackers to gain access to the system.

Vulnerability in lsmcode in unknown versions of AIX, possibly related to a usage error.

Vacation program allows command execution by remote users through a sendmail command.

An attacker can write to syslog files from any location, causing a denial of service by filling up the logs, and hiding activities.
