Buffer overflows in Raytheon SilentRunner allow remote attackers to (1) cause a denial of service in the collector (cle.exe) component of SilentRunner 2.0 via traffic containing long passwords, or (2) execute arbitrary commands via long HTTP queries in the Knowledge Browser component in SilentRunner 2.0 and 2.0.1. NOTE: It is highly likely that this candidate will be split into multiple candidates.

Red Hat Linux 7.1 sets insecure permissions on swap files created during installation, which can allow a local attacker to gain additional privileges by reading sensitive information from the swap file, such as passwords.

Sun Chili!Soft ASP has weak permissions on various configuration files, which allows a local attacker to gain additional privileges and create a denial of service.

Directory traversal vulnerability in Sun Chili!Soft ASP on multiple Unixes allows a remote attacker to read arbitrary files above the web root via a '..' (dot dot) attack in the sample script 'codebrws.asp'.

Sun Chili!Soft 3.5.2 on Linux and 3.6 on AIX creates a default admin username and password in the default installation, which can allow a remote attacker to gain additional privileges.

HP Event Correlation Service (ecsd) as included with OpenView Network Node Manager 6.1 allows a remote attacker to gain addition privileges via a buffer overflow attack in the '-restore_config' command line parameter.

Microsoft Word 2000 does not check AutoRecovery (.asd) files for macros, which allows a local attacker to execute arbitrary macros with the user ID of the Word user.

vi as included with SCO OpenServer 5.0 - 5.0.6 allows a local attacker to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack.

sendfiled, as included with Simple Asynchronous File Transfer (SAFT), on various Linux systems does not properly drop privileges when sending notification emails, which allows local attackers to gain privileges.

The web management service on Cisco Content Service series 11000 switches (CSS) before WebNS 4.01B29s or WebNS 4.10B17s allows a remote attacker to gain additional privileges by directly requesting the web management URL instead of navigating through the interface.
