The default configuration of the DVI print filter (dvips) in Red Hat Linux 7.0 and earlier does not run dvips in secure mode when dvips is executed by lpd, which could allow remote attackers to gain privileges by printing a DVI file that contains malicious commands.

slapd in OpenLDAP 1.x before 1.2.12, and 2.x before 2.0.8, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via an invalid Basic Encoding Rules (BER) length field.

teTeX filter before 1.0.7 allows local users to gain privileges via a symlink attack on temporary files that are produced when printing .dvi files using lpr.

Race condition in signal handling of procmail 3.20 and earlier, when running setuid, allows local users to cause a denial of service or gain root privileges by sending a signal while a signal handling routine is already running.

Vulnerability in Postfix SMTP server before 20010228-pl07, when configured to email the postmaster when SMTP errors cause the session to terminate, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory exhaustion) by generating a large number of SMTP errors, which forces the SMTP session log to grow too large.

Certain backend drivers in the SANE library 1.0.3 and earlier, as used in frontend software such as XSane, allows local users to modify files via a symlink attack on temporary files.

Exim 3.22 and earlier, in some configurations, does not properly verify the local part of an address when redirecting the address to a pipe, which could allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via shell metacharacters.

xSANE 0.81 and earlier allows local users to modify files of other xSANE users via a symlink attack on temporary files.

Buffer overflow in glob function of glibc allows attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a glob pattern that ends in a brace "{" character.

Cross-site scripting vulnerability in Mailman email archiver before 2.08 allows attackers to obtain sensitive information or authentication credentials via a malicious link that is accessed by other web users.

uuxqt in Taylor UUCP package does not properly remove dangerous long options, which allows local users to gain privileges by calling uux and specifying an alternate configuration file with the --config option.

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.

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.

2.4.3-12 kernel in Red Hat Linux 7.1 Korean installation program sets the setting default umask for init to 000, which installs files with world-writeable permissions.

TUX HTTP server 2.1.0-2 in Red Hat Linux allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via a long Host: header.

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.

Squid proxy server 2.4 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a mkdir-only FTP PUT request.

Cross-site scripting vulnerability in Webalizer 2.01-06, and possibly other versions, allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary HTML tags by specifying them in (1) search keywords embedded in HTTP referrer information, or (2) host names that are retrieved via a reverse DNS lookup.

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.

Buffer overflow in internal string handling routines of xinetd before 2.1.8.8 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via a length argument of zero or less, which disables the length check.
