CVE Database

The ipt_recent kernel module (ipt_recent.c) in Linux kernel 2.6.12 and earlier does not properly perform certain time tests when the jiffies value is greater than LONG_MAX, which can cause ipt_recent netfilter rules to block too early, a different vulnerability than CVE-2005-2872.

ZipTorrent 1.3.7.3 stores sensitive information in plaintext in the pref.txt file, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information such as proxy server information and passwords.

URBAN 1.5.3_1 allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on the (1) high score or (2) save game files.

smb4k 0.4 and other versions before 0.6.3 allows local users to read sensitive files via a symlink attack on the (1) smb4k.tmp or (2) sudoers temporary files.

silc daemon (silcd.c) in Secure Internet Live Conferencing (SILC) 1.0 and earlier allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on the silcd.[PID].stats temporary file.

Polygen before 1.0.6 generates precompiled grammar objects with world-writable permissions, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (disk consumption) and possibly perform other unauthorized activities.

Memory leak in the seq_file implementation in the SCSI procfs interface (sg.c) in Linux kernel 2.6.13 and earlier allows local users to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via certain repeated reads from the /proc/scsi/sg/devices file, which is not properly handled when the next() iterator returns NULL or an error.

cosmoshop 8.10.78 and earlier stores passwords in plaintext in the database, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information.

The log4sh_readProperties function in log4sh 1.2.5 and earlier allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on predictable log4sh.$$ filenames.

Symantec AntiVirus Corporate Edition 9.0.1.x and 9.0.4.x, and possibly other versions, when obtaining updates from an internal LiveUpdate server, stores sensitive information in cleartext in the Log.Liveupdate log file, which allows attackers to obtain the username and password to the internal LiveUpdate server.

The user interface in the Windows Firewall does not properly display certain malformed entries in the Windows Registry, which makes it easier for attackers with administrator privileges to hide activities if the administrator only uses the Windows Firewall interface to monitor exceptions. NOTE: the vendor disputes this issue, saying that since administrative privileges are already required, it is not a vulnerability. CVE has not yet formally decided if such "information hiding" issues should be included.

Directory traversal vulnerability in Astaro Security Linux 6.0, when using Webmin, allows remote authenticated webmin users to read arbitrary files via a .. (dot dot) in the wfe_download parameter to index.fpl.

The inputtrap utility in QNX RTOS 6.1.0, 6.3, and possibly earlier versions does not properly check permissions when the -t flag is specified, which allows local users to read arbitrary files.

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.

Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in PostNuke 0.760-RC4b allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via (1) the moderate parameter to the Comments module or (2) htmltext parameter to html/user.php.

Race condition in OpenVPN before 2.0.1, when --duplicate-cn is not enabled, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (server crash) via simultaneous TCP connections from multiple clients that use the same client certificate.

OpenVPN before 2.0.1, when running in "dev tap" Ethernet bridging mode, allows remote authenticated clients to cause a denial of service (memory exhaustion) via a flood of packets with a large number of spoofed MAC addresses.

VCNative for Adobe Version Cue 1.0 and 1.0.1, as used in Creative Suite 1.0 and 1.3, and when running on Mac OS X with Version Cue Workspace, creates temporary log files with predictable names, which allows local users to modify arbitrary files via a symlink attack.

pwmconfig in LM_sensors before 2.9.1 creates temporary files insecurely, which allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on the fancontrol temporary file.

SSH, as implemented in OpenSSH before 4.0 and possibly other implementations, stores hostnames, IP addresses, and keys in plaintext in the known_hosts file, which makes it easier for an attacker that has compromised an SSH user's account to generate a list of additional targets that are more likely to have the same password or key.

Whisper 32 1.16, and possibly earlier versions, stores passwords in plaintext in memory, which allows local users to obtain the password using a debugger or another mechanism to read process memory.

slocate before 2.7 does not properly process very long paths, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (updatedb exit and incomplete slocate database) via a certain crafted directory structure.

The password assistant in Mac OS X 10.4 to 10.4.2, when used to create multiple accounts from the same process, does not reset the suggested password list when the assistant is displayed, which allows attackers to view recently used passwords.

Safari in Mac OS X 10.3.9 and 10.4.2 submits forms from an XSL formatted page to the next page that is browsed by the user, which causes form data to be sent to the wrong site.

Mail.app in Mac OS 10.4.2 and earlier, when printing or forwarding an HTML message, loads remote images even when the user's preferences state otherwise, which could result in a privacy leak.

Unknown vulnerability in loginwindow in Mac OS X 10.4.2 and earlier, when Fast User Switching is enabled, allows attackers to log into other accounts if they know the passwords to at least two accounts.

The syscall32_setup_pages function in syscall32.c for Linux kernel 2.6.12 and later, on the 64-bit x86 platform, does not check the return value of the insert_vm_struct function, which allows local users to trigger a memory leak via a 32-bit application with crafted ELF headers.

Mozilla Thunderbird 1.0 and Firefox 1.0.6 allows remote attackers to obfuscate URIs via a long URI, which causes the address bar to go blank and could facilitate phishing attacks.

Mentor ADSL-FR4II router running firmware 2.00.0111 stores the web administration password in cleartext in the backup configuration file, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information.
