Race condition in the ia32 compatibility code for the execve system call in Linux kernel 2.4 before 2.4.31 and 2.6 before 2.6.6 allows local users to cause a denial of service (kernel panic) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a concurrent thread that increments a pointer count after the nargs function has counted the pointers, but before the count is copied from user space to kernel space, which leads to a buffer overflow.

traps.c in the Linux kernel 2.6.x and 2.4.x executes stack segment faults on an exception stack, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (oops and stack fault exception).

Heap-based buffer overflow in rtffplin.cpp in RealPlayer 10.5 6.0.12.1056 on Windows, and 10, 10.0.1.436, and other versions before 10.0.5 on Linux, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a RealMedia file with a long RealText string, such as an SMIL file.

syscall in the Linux kernel 2.6.8.1 and 2.6.10 for the AMD64 platform, when running in 32-bit compatibility mode, allows local users to cause a denial of service (kernel hang) via crafted arguments.

Linux 2.6.11 on 64-bit x86 (x86_64) platforms does not use a guard page for the 47-bit address page to protect against an AMD K8 bug, which allows local users to cause a denial of service.

Buffer overflow in ptrace in the Linux Kernel for 64-bit architectures allows local users to write bytes into kernel memory.

The ptrace call in the Linux kernel 2.6.8.1 and 2.6.10 for the AMD64 platform allows local users to cause a denial of service (kernel crash) via a "non-canonical" address.

Linux kernel 2.6 and 2.4 on the IA64 architecture allows local users to cause a denial of service (kernel crash) via ptrace and the restore_sigcontext function.

Race condition in shtool 2.0.1 and earlier allows local users to modify or create arbitrary files via a symlink attack on temporary files after they have been created, a different vulnerability than CVE-2005-1751.

viewFile.php in the scm component of Gforge before 4.0 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via shell metacharacters in the file_name parameter.

Race condition in shtool 2.0.1 and earlier allows local users to create or modify arbitrary files via a symlink attack on the .shtool.$$ temporary file, a different vulnerability than CVE-2005-1759.

fixproc in Net-snmp 5.x before 5.2.1-r1 creates temporary files insecurely, which allows local users to modify the contents of those files to execute arbitrary commands, or overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack.

The XWD Decoder in ImageMagick before 6.2.2.3, and GraphicsMagick before 1.1.6-r1, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop) via an image with a zero color mask.

gdb before 6.3 searches the current working directory to load the .gdbinit configuration file, which allows local users to execute arbitrary commands as the user running gdb.

Integer overflow in the Binary File Descriptor (BFD) library for gdb before 6.3, binutils, elfutils, and possibly other packages, allows user-assisted attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted object file that specifies a large number of section headers, leading to a heap-based buffer overflow.

Format string vulnerability in gxine 0.4.1 through 0.4.4, and other versions down to 0.3, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a ram file with a URL whose hostname contains format string specifiers.

Double free vulnerability in the krb5_recvauth function in MIT Kerberos 5 (krb5) 1.4.1 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via certain error conditions.

Wordpress 1.5 and earlier allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information via a direct request to files in (1) wp-content/themes/, (2) wp-includes/, or (3) wp-admin/, which reveal the path in an error message.

Format string vulnerability in gedit 2.10.2 may allow attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a bin file with format string specifiers in the filename. NOTE: while this issue is triggered on the command line by the gedit user, it has been reported that web browsers and email clients could be configured to provide a file name as an argument to gedit, so there is a valid attack that crosses security boundaries.

Stack-based buffer overflow in the error directive in picasm 1.12b and earlier allows attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long error message.
