madvise_remove in Linux kernel 2.6.16 up to 2.6.16.6 does not follow file and mmap restrictions, which allows local users to bypass IPC permissions and replace portions of readonly tmpfs files with zeroes, aka the MADV_REMOVE vulnerability. NOTE: this description was originally written in a way that combined two separate issues. The mprotect issue now has a separate name, CVE-2006-2071.

ip_route_input in Linux kernel 2.6 before 2.6.16.8 allows local users to cause a denial of service (panic) via a request for a route for a multicast IP address, which triggers a null dereference.

Linux kernel before 2.6.16.5 does not properly handle uncanonical return addresses on Intel EM64T CPUs, which reports an exception in the SYSRET instead of the next instruction, which causes the kernel exception handler to run on the user stack with the wrong GS.

perfmon (perfmon.c) in Linux kernel on IA64 architectures allows local users to cause a denial of service (crash) by interrupting a task while another process is accessing the mm_struct, which triggers a BUG_ON action in the put_page_testzero function.

The __group_complete_signal function in the RCU signal handling (signal.c) in Linux kernel 2.6.16, and possibly other versions, has unknown impact and attack vectors related to improper use of BUG_ON.

The fill_write_buffer function in sysfs/file.c in Linux kernel 2.6.12 up to versions before 2.6.17-rc1 does not zero terminate a buffer when a length of PAGE_SIZE or more is requested, which might allow local users to cause a denial of service (crash) by causing an out-of-bounds read.

Integer overflow in the do_replace function in netfilter for Linux before 2.6.16-rc3, when using "virtualization solutions" such as OpenVZ, allows local users with CAP_NET_ADMIN rights to cause a buffer overflow in the copy_from_user function.

sys_mbind in mempolicy.c in Linux kernel 2.6.16 and earlier does not sanity check the maxnod variable before making certain computations for the get_nodes function, which has unknown impact and attack vectors.

Buffer overflow in the SockPrintf function in wu-ftpd 2.6.2 and earlier, when compiled with MAIL_ADMIN option enabled on a system that supports very long pathnames, might allow remote anonymous users to execute arbitrary code by uploading a file with a long pathname, which triggers the overflow when wu-ftpd constructs a notification message to the administrator.

Stack-based buffer overflow in the reply_nttrans function in Samba 2.2.7a and earlier allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted request, a different vulnerability than CVE-2003-0201.

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in links.php script in myPHPNuke 1.8.8, and possibly earlier versions, allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary HTML and web script via the (1) ratenum or (2) query parameters.

Petitforum stores the liste.txt data file under the web document root with insufficient access control, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information such as e-mail addresses and encrypted passwords.

Gallery 1.3.3 creates directories with insecure permissions, which allows local users to read, modify, or delete photos.

Directory traversal vulnerability in Unreal Tournament Server 436 and earlier allows remote attackers to access known files via a ".." (dot dot) in an unreal:// URL.

Invision Power Services Invision Board 1.0 through 1.1.1, when a forum is password protected, stores the administrator password in a cookie in plaintext, which could allow remote attackers to gain access.

Album.pl 6.1 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands, when an alternative configuration file is used, via unknown attack vectors.

Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in (1) login.php, (2) register.php, (3) post.php, and (4) common.php in Phorum before 3.4.3 allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via unknown attack vectors.

The ugidd RPC interface, by design, allows remote attackers to enumerate valid usernames by specifying arbitrary UIDs that ugidd maps to local user and group names.
