Buffer overflow in login in various System V based operating systems allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via a large number of arguments through services such as telnet and rlogin.

Heap overflow in xlock in Solaris 2.6 through 8 allows local users to gain root privileges via a long (1) XFILESEARCHPATH or (2) XUSERFILESEARCHPATH environmental variable.

Buffer overflow in rpc.yppasswdd (yppasswd server) in Solaris 2.6, 7 and 8 allows remote attackers to gain root access via a long username.

The Basic Security Module (BSM) for Solaris 2.5.1, 2.6, 7, and 8 does not log anonymous FTP access, which allows remote attackers to hide their activities, possibly when certain BSM audit files are not present under the FTP root.

Buffer overflow in dtmail in Solaris 2.6 and 7 allows local users to gain privileges via the MAIL environment variable.

Buffer overflow in BSD-based telnetd telnet daemon on various operating systems allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via a set of options including AYT (Are You There), which is not properly handled by the telrcv function.

Buffer overflow in mailx in Solaris 8 and earlier allows a local attacker to gain additional privileges via a long '-F' command line option.

kcms_configure as included with Solaris 7 and 8 allows a local attacker to gain additional privileges via a buffer overflow in a command line argument.

Buffer overflow in the kcsSUNWIOsolf.so library in Solaris 7 and 8 allows local attackers to execute arbitrary commands via the KCMS_PROFILES environment variable, e.g. as demonstrated using the kcms_configure program.

Buffer overflow in the line printer daemon (in.lpd) for Solaris 8 and earlier allows local and remote attackers to gain root privileges via a "transfer job" routine.

Multiple TCP implementations could allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (bandwidth and CPU exhaustion) by setting the maximum segment size (MSS) to a very small number and requesting large amounts of data, which generates more packets with less TCP-level data that amplify network traffic and consume more server CPU to process.

Buffer overflow in whodo in Solaris SunOS 5.5.1 through 5.8 allows local users to execute arbitrary code via a long (1) SOR or (2) CFIME environment variable.

FTP server in Solaris 8 and earlier allows local and remote attackers to cause a core dump in the root directory, possibly with world-readable permissions, by providing a valid username with an invalid password followed by a CWD ~ command, which could release sensitive information such as shadowed passwords, or fill the disk partition.

Buffer overflow in Xsun in Solaris 8 and earlier allows local users to execute arbitrary commands via a long HOME environmental variable.

Buffer overflow in dtsession on Solaris, and possibly other operating systems, allows local users to gain privileges via a long LANG environmental variable.

Buffer overflow in ypbind daemon in Solaris 5.4 through 8 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code.

Buffer overflow in tip in Solaris 8 and earlier allows local users to execute arbitrary commands via a long HOME environmental variable.

Buffer overflow in ximp40 shared library in Solaris 7 and Solaris 8 allows local users to gain privileges via a long "arg0" (process name) argument.

Buffer overflow in Solaris snmpXdmid SNMP to DMI mapper daemon allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via a long "indication" event.

Buffer overflow in /usr/bin/cu in Solaris 2.8 and earlier, and possibly other operating systems, allows local users to gain privileges by executing cu with a long program name (arg0).
