Stack-based buffer overflow in the random number generator (RNG) implementation in the Linux kernel before 2.6.22 might allow local root users to cause a denial of service or gain privileges by setting the default wakeup threshold to a value greater than the output pool size, which triggers writing random numbers to the stack by the pool transfer function involving "bound check ordering". NOTE: this issue might only cross privilege boundaries in environments that have granular assignment of privileges for root.

The sysfs_readdir function in the Linux kernel 2.6, as used in Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 4.5 and other distributions, allows users to cause a denial of service (kernel OOPS) by dereferencing a null pointer to an inode in a dentry.

The init.d script for the X.Org X11 xfs font server on various Linux distributions might allow local users to change the permissions of arbitrary files via a symlink attack on the /tmp/.font-unix temporary file.

Unspecified vulnerability in the linux_audit_record_event function in OpenSSH 4.3p2, as used on Fedora Core 6 and possibly other systems, allows remote attackers to write arbitrary characters to an audit log via a crafted username. NOTE: some of these details are obtained from third party information.

Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in certain JSF applications in Apache MyFaces Tomahawk before 1.1.6 allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script via the autoscroll parameter, which is injected into Javascript that is sent to the client.

usr/log.c in iscsid in open-iscsi (iscsi-initiator-utils) before 2.0-865 uses a semaphore with insecure permissions (world-writable/world-readable) for managing log messages using shared memory, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (hang) by grabbing the semaphore.

usr/mgmt_ipc.c in iscsid in open-iscsi (iscsi-initiator-utils) before 2.0-865 checks the client's UID on the listening AF_LOCAL socket instead of the new connection, which allows remote attackers to access the management interface and cause a denial of service (iscsid exit or iSCSI connection loss).

The SNMPc Server (crserv.exe) process in Castle Rock Computing SNMPc before 7.0.19 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a crafted packet to port 165/TCP.

my.activation.php3 in F5 FirePass 4100 SSL VPN allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary shell commands via shell metacharacters in the username parameter.

Directory traversal vulnerability in login.php in PBLang (PBL) 4.67.16.a and earlier, when magic_quotes_gpc is disabled, allows remote attackers to include and execute arbitrary local files via a .. (dot dot) in the lang parameter.

Unspecified vulnerability in Symantec Reporting Server 1.0.197.0, and other versions before 1.0.224.0, as used in Symantec Client Security 3.1 and later, and Symantec AntiVirus Corporate Edition (SAV CE) 10.1 and later, allows attackers to "disable the authentication system" and bypass authentication via unknown vectors.

Unspecified vulnerability in the authentication mechanism in Solaris Management Console (SMC) on Sun Solaris 8 through 10 before 20070605 allows remote authenticated users to execute arbitrary code via unspecified vectors, related to the WBEM server.

Unspecified vulnerability in the logging mechanism in Solaris Management Console (SMC) on Sun Solaris 8 through 10 before 20070605 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via unspecified vectors, related to the WBEM server.

Microsoft Internet Explorer 6 allows remote attackers to spoof the URL bar, and page properties including SSL certificates, by interrupting page loading through certain use of location DOM objects and setTimeout calls. NOTE: this issue can be leveraged for phishing and other attacks.

Race condition in Microsoft Internet Explorer 6 SP1; 6 and 7 for Windows XP SP2 and SP3; 6 and 7 for Server 2003 SP2; 7 for Vista Gold, SP1, and SP2; and 7 for Server 2008 SP2 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or perform other actions upon a page transition, with the permissions of the old page and the content of the new page, as demonstrated by setInterval functions that set location.href within a try/catch expression, aka the "bait & switch vulnerability" or "Race Condition Cross-Domain Information Disclosure Vulnerability."

Rejected reason: DO NOT USE THIS CANDIDATE NUMBER. ConsultIDs: CVE-2008-0591. Reason: This candidate is a duplicate of CVE-2008-0591. Notes: All CVE users should reference CVE-2008-0591 instead of this candidate. All references and descriptions in this candidate have been removed to prevent accidental usage

Mozilla Firefox before 2.0.0.5 does not prevent use of document.write to replace an IFRAME (1) during the load stage or (2) in the case of an about:blank frame, which allows remote attackers to display arbitrary HTML or execute certain JavaScript code, as demonstrated by code that intercepts keystroke values from window.event, aka the "promiscuous IFRAME access bug," a related issue to CVE-2006-4568.

SQL injection vulnerability in index.php in Comicsense allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary SQL commands via the epi parameter.

Peercast places a cleartext password in a query string, which might allow attackers to obtain sensitive information by sniffing the network, or obtaining Referer or browser history information.

Unrestricted critical resource lock in Agnitum Outpost Firewall PRO 4.0 1007.591.145 and earlier allows local users to cause a denial of service (system hang) by capturing the outpost_ipc_hdr mutex.
