Security Vulnerabilities, CVEs, Published In November 2001

ip_print procedure in Tcpdump 3.4a allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via a packet with a zero length header, which causes an infinite loop and core dump when tcpdump prints the packet.

Buffer overflow in Celtech ExpressFS FTP server 2.x allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service, and possibly execute arbitrary commands, via a long USER command.

wu-ftpd 2.6.1 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via a "~{" argument to commands such as CWD, which is not properly handled by the glob function (ftpglob).

Internet Explorer 5.5 allows remote attackers to bypass security restrictions via malformed URLs that contain dotless IP addresses, which causes Internet Explorer to process the page in the Intranet Zone, which may have fewer security restrictions, aka the "Zone Spoofing Vulnerability variant" of CVE-2001-0664.

Internet Explorer 5.5 and 6.0 allows remote attackers to cause the File Download dialogue box to misrepresent the name of the file in the dialogue in a way that could fool users into thinking that the file type is safe to download.

Network Tools 0.2 for PHP-Nuke allows remote attackers to execute commands on the server via shell metacharacters in the $hostinput variable.

Hypermail allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands on a server supporting SSI via an attachment with a .shtml extension, which is archived on the server and can then be executed by requesting the URL for the attachment.

Microsoft IIS 5.0 allows remote attackers to spoof web log entries via an HTTP request that includes hex-encoded newline or form-feed characters.

Linear key exchange process in High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection (HDCP) System allows remote attackers to access data as plaintext, avoid device blacklists, clone devices, and create new device keyvectors by computing and using alternate key combinations for authentication.

CITRIX Metaframe 1.8 logs the Client Address (IP address) that is provided by the client instead of obtaining it from the packet headers, which allows clients to spoof their public IP address, e.g. through Network Address Translation (NAT).

Buffer overflow in helpctr.exe program in Microsoft Help Center for Windows XP allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long hcp: URL.

Legato Networker before 6.1 allows remote attackers to bypass access restrictions and gain privileges on the Networker interface by spoofing the admin server name and IP address and connecting to Networker from an IP address whose hostname can not be determined by a DNS reverse lookup.

PHP-Nuke 5.1 stores user and administrator passwords in a base-64 encoded cookie, which could allow remote attackers to gain privileges by stealing or sniffing the cookie and decoding it.

Format string vulnerability in Network Solutions Rwhoisd 1.5.7.2 and earlier, when using syslog, allows remote attackers to corrupt memory and possibly execute arbitrary code via a rwhois request that contains format specifiers.

ndcgi.exe in Netdynamics 4.x through 5.x, and possibly earlier versions, allows remote attackers to steal session IDs and hijack user sessions by reading the SPIDERSESSION and uniqueValue variables from the login field, then using those variables after the next user logs in.

Format string vulnerability in the permitted function of GNOME libgtop_daemon in libgtop 1.0.12 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via an argument that contains format specifiers that are passed into the (1) syslog_message and (2) syslog_io_message functions.

Buffer overflow in the permitted function of GNOME gtop daemon (libgtop_daemon) in libgtop 1.0.13 and earlier may allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via long authentication data.

Cisco IOS Firewall Feature set, aka Context Based Access Control (CBAC) or Cisco Secure Integrated Software, for IOS 11.2P through 12.2T does not properly check the IP protocol type, which could allow remote attackers to bypass access control lists.

Sendpage.pl allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via a message containing shell metacharacters.

Directory traversal vulnerability in Cooolsoft PowerFTP Server 2.03 allows attackers to list or read arbitrary files and directories via a .. (dot dot) in (1) LS or (2) GET.

Buffer overflow in Cooolsoft PowerFTP Server 2.03 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary code via a long command.

Cooolsoft PowerFTP Server 2.03 allows remote attackers to list the contents of arbitrary drives via a ls (LIST) command that includes the drive letter as an argument, e.g. "ls C:".

Cooolsoft PowerFTP Server 2.03 allows remote attackers to obtain the physical path of the server root via the pwd command, which lists the full pathname.

Vulnerability in wu-ftpd 2.6.0, and possibly earlier versions, which is unrelated to the ftpglob bug described in CVE-2001-0550.

Buffer overflow in Frox transparent FTP proxy 0.6.6 and earlier, with the local caching method selected, allows remote FTP servers to run arbitrary code via a long response to an MDTM request.
