wrshdsp.exe in Denicomp Winsock RSHD/NT 2.21.00 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) via (1) in 2.20.00 and earlier, an invalid port number such as a negative number, which causes a connection attempt to that port and all ports below 1024, and (2) in 2.21.00, a port number of 1024.

PPTP implementation in Cisco IOS 12.1 and 12.2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a malformed packet.

Vulnerability in login in HP-UX 11.00, 11.11, and 10.20 allows restricted shell users to bypass certain security checks and gain privileges.

Dynamically Loadable Kernel Module (dlkm) static kernel symbol table in HP-UX 11.11 is not properly configured, which allows local users to gain privileges.

FreeBSD 4.3 does not properly clear shared signal handlers when executing a process, which allows local users to gain privileges by calling rfork with a shared signal handler, having the child process execute a setuid program, and sending a signal to the child.

xman allows local users to gain privileges by modifying the MANPATH to point to a man page whose filename contains shell metacharacters.

Buffer overflow in xman allows local users to gain privileges via a long MANPATH environment variable.

ml85p in Samsung ML-85G GDI printer driver before 0.2.0 allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on temporary files.

Format string vulnerability in Check Point VPN-1/FireWall-1 4.1 allows a remote authenticated firewall administrator to execute arbitrary code via format strings in the control connection.

vipw in the util-linux package before 2.10 causes /etc/shadow to be world-readable in some cases, which would make it easier for local users to perform brute force password guessing.

Buffer overflow in Elm 2.5.5 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long Message-ID header.

Vulnerability in MasqMail before 0.1.15 allows local users to gain privileges via piped aliases.

OmniSecure HTTProtect 1.1.1 allows a superuser without omnish privileges to modify a protected file by creating a symbolic link to that file.

Check Point Firewall-1 3.0b through 4.0 SP1 follows symlinks and creates a world-writable temporary .cpp file when compiling Policy rules, which could allow local users to gain privileges or modify the firewall policy.

AmTote International homebet program stores the homebet.log file in the homebet/ virtual directory, which allows remote attackers to steal account and PIN numbers.

keyinit in S/Key does not require authentication to initialize a one-time password sequence, which allows an attacker who has gained privileges to a user account to create new one-time passwords for use in other activities that may use S/Key authentication, such as sudo.

Directory traversal vulnerability in index.php in PhpMyExplorer before 1.2.1 allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files via a ..%2F (modified dot dot) in the chemin parameter.

Rejected reason: DO NOT USE THIS CANDIDATE NUMBER. ConsultIDs: CVE-2001-0976. Reason: This candidate is a duplicate of CVE-2001-0976. Notes: CVE-2001-0976 should be used instead of this candidate. All references and descriptions in this candidate have been removed to prevent accidental usage

linprocfs on FreeBSD 4.3 and earlier does not properly restrict access to kernel memory, which allows one process with debugging rights on a privileged process to read restricted memory from that process.

Intego FileGuard 4.0 uses weak encryption to store user information and passwords, which allows local users to gain privileges by decrypting the information, e.g., with the Disengage tool.
