Buffer overflow in lukemftp FTP client in SuSE 6.4 through 8.0, and possibly other operating systems, allows a malicious FTP server to execute arbitrary code via a long PASV command.

Format string vulnerability in the default logging callback function _sasl_syslog in common.c in Cyrus SASL library (cyrus-sasl) may allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands.

OpenSSH 3.0.1 and earlier with UseLogin enabled does not properly cleanse critical environment variables such as LD_PRELOAD, which allows local users to gain root privileges.

htsearch CGI program in htdig (ht://Dig) 3.1.5 and earlier allows remote attackers to use the -c option to specify an alternate configuration file, which could be used to (1) cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) by specifying a large file such as /dev/zero, or (2) read arbitrary files by uploading an alternate configuration file that specifies the target file.

Linux kernel 2.0, 2.2 and 2.4 with syncookies enabled allows remote attackers to bypass firewall rules by brute force guessing the cookie.

Vulnerabilities in CGI scripts in susehelp in SuSE 7.2 and 7.3 allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands by not opening files securely.

Linux kernel before 2.4.11pre3 in multiple Linux distributions allows local users to cause a denial of service (crash) by starting the core vmlinux kernel, possibly related to poor error checking during ELF loading.

Buffer overflow in Linux mount and umount allows local users to gain root privileges via a long relative pathname.

The PPP wvdial.lxdialog script in wvdial 1.4 and earlier creates a .config file with world readable permissions, which allows a local attacker in the dialout group to access login and password information.
