CVE Vulnerability Catalog

Buffer overflow in Netscape SmartDownload 1.3 allows remote attackers (malicious web pages) to execute arbitrary commands via a long URL.

Licq before 1.0.3 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via shell metacharacters in a URL.

In SquirrelMail version 1.0.4 and earlier, the load_prefs.php file and supporting files do not properly initialize certain PHP variables. This allows remote attackers to view sensitive files and execute arbitrary code by uploading a message that could be interpreted as PHP.

nph-maillist.pl allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via shell metacharacters ("`") in the email address.

WFTPD 3.00 allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files by uploading a (link) file that ends in a '.lnk.' extension, which bypasses WFTPD's check for a '.lnk' extension.

ArGoSoft FTP Server version 1.2.2.2 allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files and directories by uploading a .lnk (link) file that points to the target file.

PHP versions 4.0.5 through 4.1.0 in safe mode do not properly cleanse the 5th parameter to the mail() function, allowing local users and possibly remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via shell metacharacters.

Buffer overflows in ascdc Afterstep allow local users to gain root privileges when running with setuid. This issue can be exploited via long -d, -m, or -f options.

The index.php file in Jelsoft vBulletin improperly initializes a PHP variable used to store template information. This allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary PHP code via special characters in the templatecache parameter.

Buffer overflow in the SNMP proxy agent snmpd in Solaris 8 may allow local users to gain root privileges by calling snmpd with a long program name.

SSH daemon version 1 (SSH-1) 1.2.30 and earlier does not log repeated login attempts, which could allow remote attackers to compromise accounts without detection via a brute force attack.

Buffer overflow in the Internet Printing ISAPI extension in Windows 2000 allows remote attackers to gain root privileges via a long print request passed to the extension through IIS 5.0.

Buffer overflow in Microsoft Index Server 2.0 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via a long search parameter.

Buffer overflows in Microsoft Windows Media Player 7 and earlier allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via (1) a long version tag in an .ASX file, or (2) a long banner tag, a variant of the '.ASX Buffer Overrun' vulnerability.

CVE-2001-0359 describes a format string vulnerability in Sierra Half-Life build 1573 and earlier that allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code via the map command.

Unknown vulnerability in netprint in IRIX 6.2, and possibly other versions, allows local users with lp privileges to execute arbitrary commands via the -n option.

The vulnerability in saposcol in SAP R/3 Web Application Server Demo before version 1.5 relies on the PATH environmental variable to find and execute the expand program. This allows local users to gain root access by modifying the PATH to point to a malicious expand program.

Buffer overflow in uucp utilities in UnixWare 7 allows local users to execute arbitrary code via long command line arguments.
