The XMLRPC server in utils.rb for the ruby library (libruby) 1.8 sets an invalid default value that prevents "security protection" using handlers, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands.

A regression error in Firefox 1.0.3 and Mozilla 1.7.7 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary Javascript from one page into the frameset of another site, aka the frame injection spoofing vulnerability, a re-introduction of a vulnerability that was originally identified and addressed by CVE-2004-0718.

Gaim before 1.3.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a malformed MSN message that leads to a memory allocation of a large size, possibly due to an integer signedness error.

The ENSURE_BITS macro in mszipd.c for Clam AntiVirus (ClamAV) 0.83, and other versions vefore 0.86, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption by infinite loop) via a cabinet (CAB) file with the cffile_FolderOffset field set to 0xff, which causes a zero-length read.

The MS-Expand file handling in Clam AntiVirus (ClamAV) before 0.86 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (file descriptor and memory consumption) via a crafted file that causes repeated errors in the cli_msexpand function.

Eval injection vulnerability in PEAR XML_RPC 1.3.0 and earlier (aka XML-RPC or xmlrpc) and PHPXMLRPC (aka XML-RPC For PHP or php-xmlrpc) 1.1 and earlier, as used in products such as (1) WordPress, (2) Serendipity, (3) Drupal, (4) egroupware, (5) MailWatch, (6) TikiWiki, (7) phpWebSite, (8) Ampache, and others, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary PHP code via an XML file, which is not properly sanitized before being used in an eval statement.

The (1) Kate and (2) Kwrite applications in KDE KDE 3.2.x through 3.4.0 do not properly set the same permissions on the backup file as were set on the original file, which could allow local users and possibly remote attackers to obtain sensitive information.

The original patch for a GNU tar directory traversal vulnerability (CVE-2002-0399) in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3 and 2.1 uses an "incorrect optimization" that allows user-assisted attackers to overwrite arbitrary files via a crafted tar file, probably involving "/../" sequences with a leading "/".

linki.py in ekg 2005-06-05 and earlier allows local users to overwrite or create arbitrary files via a symlink attack on temporary files.

CenterICQ 4.20.0 and earlier creates temporary files with predictable file names, which allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on the gg.token.PID temporary file.

The Linux kernel 2.6 before 2.6.12.1 allows local users to cause a denial of service (kernel panic) via a non group-leader thread executing a different program than was pending in itimer, which causes the signal to be delivered to the old group-leader task, which does not exist.

The fetchnews NNTP client in leafnode 1.11.2 and earlier can hang while waiting for input that never arrives, which allows remote NNTP servers to cause a denial of service (news loss).

Unknown vulnerability in the privilege system in Drupal 4.4.0 through 4.6.0, when public registration is enabled, allows remote attackers to gain privileges, due to an "input check" that "is not implemented properly."

FUSE 2.x before 2.3.0 does not properly clear previously used memory from unfilled pages when the filesystem returns a short byte count to a read request, which may allow local users to obtain sensitive information.

Format string vulnerability in simpleproxy before 3.4 allows remote malicious HTTP proxies to execute arbitrary code via format string specifiers in a reply.

The CD-burning feature in backup-manager 0.5.8 and earlier uses a fixed filename in a world-writable directory for logging, which allows local users to overwrite files via a symlink attack.

Backup Manager (backup-manager) before 0.5.8 creates backup files with world-readable default permissions, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information.

Unknown vulnerability in apt-cacher in Debian 3.1, related to "missing input sanitising," allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands on the caching server.

gopher.c in the Gopher client 3.0.5 does not properly create temporary files, which allows local users to gain privileges.

Multiple integer overflows in libgadu, as used in Kopete in KDE 3.2.3 to 3.4.1, ekg before 1.6rc3, GNU Gadu, CenterICQ, Kadu, and other packages, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via an incoming message.
