Zope 2.2.0 through 2.2.4 does not properly perform security registration for legacy names of object constructors such as DTML method objects, which could allow attackers to perform unauthorized activities.

Format string vulnerability in startprinting() function of printjob.c in BSD-based lpr lpd package may allow local users to gain privileges via an improper syslog call that uses format strings from the checkremote() call.

userhelper in the usermode package on Red Hat Linux executes non-setuid programs as root, which does not activate the security measures in glibc and allows the programs to be exploited via format string vulnerabilities in glibc via the LANG or LC_ALL environment variables (CVE-2000-0844).

htsearch program in htDig 3.2 beta, 3.1.6, 3.1.5, and earlier allows remote attackers to determine the physical path of the server by requesting a non-existent configuration file using the config parameter, which generates an error message that includes the full path.

imwheel-solo in imwheel package allows local users to modify arbitrary files via a symlink attack from the .imwheelrc file.

Buffer overflow in pam_localuser PAM module in Red Hat Linux 7.x and 6.x allows attackers to gain privileges.

Buffer overflow in the HTML parser for Netscape 4.75 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via a long password value in a form field.

Joe text editor follows symbolic links when creating a rescue copy called DEADJOE during an abnormal exit, which allows local users to overwrite the files of other users whose joe session crashes.

Multiple buffer overflows in AFS ACL parser for Ethereal 0.8.13 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via a packet with a long username.

OpenSSH SSH client before 2.3.0 does not properly disable X11 or agent forwarding, which could allow a malicious SSH server to gain access to the X11 display and sniff X11 events, or gain access to the ssh-agent.

ghostscript before 5.10-16 allows local users to overwrite files of other users via a symlink attack.

GNU ed before 0.2-18.1 allows local users to overwrite the files of other users via a symlink attack.

Multiple shell programs on various Unix systems, including (1) tcsh, (2) csh, (3) sh, and (4) bash, follow symlinks when processing << redirects (aka here-documents or in-here documents), which allows local users to overwrite files of other users via a symlink attack.

modprobe in the modutils 2.3.x package on Linux systems allows a local user to execute arbitrary commands via shell metacharacters.

nss_ldap earlier than 121, when run with nscd (name service caching daemon), allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via a flood of LDAP requests.

Format string vulnerability in logging function of ypbind 3.3, while running in debug mode, leaks file descriptors and allows an attacker to cause a denial of service.

GnuPG (gpg) 1.0.3 does not properly check all signatures of a file containing multiple documents, which allows an attacker to modify contents of all documents but the first without detection.

Buffer overflow in curl earlier than 6.0-1.1, and curl-ssl earlier than 6.0-1.2, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands by forcing a long error message to be generated.

PHP 3 and 4 do not properly cleanse user-injected format strings, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands by triggering error messages that are improperly written to the error logs.

Buffer overflow in ncurses library allows local users to execute arbitrary commands via long environmental information such as TERM or TERMINFO_DIRS.
