Windows NT 4.0 allows local users to cause a denial of service (crash) via an illegal kernel mode address to the functions (1) GetThreadContext or (2) SetThreadContext.

DNS allows remote attackers to use DNS name servers as traffic amplifiers via a UDP DNS query with a spoofed source address, which produces more traffic to the victim than was sent by the attacker.

NetWare NFS mode 1 and 2 implements the "Read Only" flag in Unix by changing the ownership of a file to root, which allows local users to gain root privileges by creating a setuid program and setting it to "Read Only," which NetWare-NFS changes to a setuid root program.

Perl 5.004_04 and earlier follows symbolic links when running with the -e option, which allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on the /tmp/perl-eaXXXXX file.

genkey utility in Alibaba 2.0 generates RSA key pairs with an exponent of 1, which results in transactions that are sent in cleartext.

The Winmsdp.exe sample file in IIS 4.0 and Site Server 3.0 allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files.

GINA in Windows NT 4.0 allows attackers with physical access to display a portion of the clipboard of the user who has locked the workstation by pasting (CTRL-V) the contents into the username prompt.

RSH service utility RSHSVC in Windows NT 3.5 through 4.0 does not properly restrict access as specified in the .Rhosts file when a user comes from an authorized host, which could allow unauthorized users to access the service by logging in from an authorized host.

thttpd HTTP server 2.03 and earlier allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files via a GET request with more than one leading / (slash) character in the filename.

Vulnerability in bb-hist.sh CGI History module in Big Brother 1.09b and 1.09c allows remote attackers to read portions of arbitrary files.

Vulnerability in Cisco IOS 11.1CC and 11.1CT with distributed fast switching (DFS) enabled allows remote attackers to bypass certain access control lists when the router switches traffic from a DFS-enabled interface to an interface that does not have DFS enabled, as described by Cisco bug CSCdk35564.

Vulnerability in Cisco IOS 11.1 through 11.3 with distributed fast switching (DFS) enabled allows remote attackers to bypass certain access control lists when the router switches traffic from a DFS-enabled input interface to an output interface with a logical subinterface, as described by Cisco bug CSCdk43862.

Internet Explorer 4.0 allows remote attackers to read arbitrary text and HTML files on the user's machine via a small IFRAME that uses Dynamic HTML (DHTML) to send the data to the attacker, aka the Freiburg text-viewing issue.

When a Web site redirects the browser to another site, Internet Explorer 3.02 and 4.0 automatically resends authentication information to the second site, aka the "Page Redirect Issue."

PowerPoint 95 and 97 allows remote attackers to cause an application to be run automatically without prompting the user, possibly through the slide show, when the document is opened in browsers such as Internet Explorer.

A bug in Intel Pentium processor (MMX and Overdrive) allows local users to cause a denial of service (hang) in Intel-based operating systems such as Windows NT and Windows 95, via an invalid instruction, aka the "Invalid Operand with Locked CMPXCHG8B Instruction" problem.

Squid 2.2.STABLE5 and below, when using external authentication, allows attackers to bypass access controls via a newline in the user/password pair.

sdrd daemon in IBM SP2 System Data Repository (SDR) allows remote attackers to read files without authentication.

The AMaViS virus scanner 0.2.0-pre4 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands as root via an infected mail message with shell metacharacters in the reply-to field.

Unknown vulnerability in (1) loadmodule, and (2) modload if modload is installed with setuid/setgid privileges, in SunOS 4.1.1 through 4.1.3c, and Open Windows 3.0, allows local users to gain root privileges via environment variables, a different vulnerability than CVE-1999-1586.
