The glob functionality in ProFTPD 1.2.1, and possibly other versions allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU and memory consumption) via commands with large numbers of wildcard and other special characters, as demonstrated using an ls command with multiple (1) "*/..", (2) "*/.*", or (3) ".*./*?/" sequences in the argument.

ProFTPD 1.2.2rc2, and possibly other versions, does not properly verify reverse-resolved hostnames by performing forward resolution, which allows remote attackers to bypass ACLs or cause an incorrect client hostname to be logged.

Check Point VPN-1 4.1SP4 using SecuRemote returns different error messages for valid and invalid users, with prompts that vary depending on the authentication method being used, which makes it easier for remote attackers to conduct brute force attacks.

Microsoft Internet Explorer 4.0 through 6.0 could allow local users to differentiate between alphanumeric and non-alphanumeric characters used in a password by pressing certain control keys that jump between non-alphanumeric characters, which makes it easier to conduct a brute-force password guessing attack.

Off-by-one buffer overflow in Basic Authentication in Acme Labs thttpd 1.95 through 2.20 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary code.

network_query.php in Network Query Tool 1.0 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via shell metacharacters in the target parameter.

script command in the util-linux package before 2.11n allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files by setting a hardlink from the typescript log file to any file on the system, then having root execute the script command.

Opera 5.11 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption and memory leak) via a web page with a large number of images.

Mozilla 0.9.6 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption and memory leak) via a web page with a large number of images.

Microsoft Internet Explorer 6 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption and memory leak) via a web page with a large number of images.

Open Projects Network Internet Relay Chat (IRC) daemon u2.10.05.18 does not perform a double-reverse DNS lookup, which allows remote attackers to spoof any valid hostname on the Internet. NOTE: a followup post suggests that this is not an issue in the daemon.

popauth utility in Qualcomm Qpopper 4.0 and earlier allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files and execute commands as the pop user via a symlink attack on the -trace file option.

Alcatel ADSL modems allow remote attackers to access the Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP) to modify firmware and configuration via a bounce attack from a system on the local area network (LAN) side, which is allowed to access TFTP without authentication.

One-Time Passwords In Everything (a.k.a OPIE) 2.32 and 2.4 allows remote attackers to determine the existence of user accounts by printing random passphrases if the user account does not exist and static passphrases if the user account does exist.

smcboot in Sun SMC (Sun Management Center) 2.0 in Solaris 8 allows local users to delete arbitrary files via a symlink attack on /tmp/smc$SMC_PORT.
