Directory traversal vulnerability in GNU tar 1.13.19 through 1.13.25, and possibly later versions, allows attackers to overwrite arbitrary files during archive extraction via a (1) "/.." or (2) "./.." string, which removes the leading slash but leaves the "..", a variant of CVE-2001-1267.

Apache 1.3 through 1.3.24, and Apache 2.0 through 2.0.36, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary code via a chunk-encoded HTTP request that causes Apache to use an incorrect size.

Integer overflow in xdr_array function in RPC servers for operating systems that use libc, glibc, or other code based on SunRPC including dietlibc, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by passing a large number of arguments to xdr_array through RPC services such as rpc.cmsd and dmispd.

Pipermail in Mailman stores private mail messages with predictable filenames in a world-executable directory, which allows local users to read private mailing list archives.

Cross-site scripting vulnerabilities in Mailman before 2.0.11 allow remote attackers to execute script via (1) the admin login page, or (2) the Pipermail index summaries.

Buffer overflow in Jabber plug-in for Gaim client before 0.58 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code.

XChat IRC client allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via a /dns command on a host whose DNS reverse lookup contains shell metacharacters.

Buffer overflow in tcpdump 3.6.2 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary code via an NFS packet.

Buffer overflow in University of Washington imap server (uw-imapd) imap-2001 (imapd 2001.315) and imap-2001a (imapd 2001.315) with legacy RFC 1730 support, and imapd 2000.287 and earlier, allows remote authenticated users to execute arbitrary code via a long BODY request.

The default configuration of LPRng print spooler in Red Hat Linux 7.0 through 7.3, Mandrake 8.1 and 8.2, and other operating systems, accepts print jobs from arbitrary remote hosts.

Format string vulnerability in the logging function for the pam_ldap PAM LDAP module before version 144 allows attackers to execute arbitrary code via format strings in the configuration file name.

ghostscript before 6.53 allows attackers to execute arbitrary commands by using .locksafe or .setsafe to reset the current pagedevice.

The XMLHttpRequest object (XMLHTTP) in Netscape 6.1 and Mozilla 0.9.7 allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files and list directories on a client system by opening a URL that redirects the browser to the file on the client, then reading the result using the responseText property.

The ASN.1 parser in Ethereal 0.9.2 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a certain malformed packet, which causes Ethereal to allocate memory incorrectly, possibly due to zero-length fields.

Exim 3.34 and earlier may allow local users to gain privileges via a buffer overflow in long -C (configuration file) and other command line arguments.

Buffer overflows in mpg321 before 0.2.9 allows local and possibly remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long URL to (1) a command line option, (2) an HTTP request, or (3) an FTP request.

mod_python version 2.7.6 and earlier allows a module indirectly imported by a published module to then be accessed via the publisher, which allows remote attackers to call possibly dangerous functions from the imported module.

Sudo before 1.6.6 contains an off-by-one error that can result in a heap-based buffer overflow that may allow local users to gain root privileges via special characters in the -p (prompt) argument, which are not properly expanded.

Buffer overflow in Webalizer 2.01-06, when configured to use reverse DNS lookups, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by connecting to the monitored web server from an IP address that resolves to a long hostname.

uudecode, as available in the sharutils package before 4.2.1, does not check whether the filename of the uudecoded file is a pipe or symbolic link, which could allow attackers to overwrite files or execute commands.
