Redhat : Security Vulnerabilities, CVEs, Published In 2008 (Code Execution)

Red Hat Directory Server 8.0, when running on Red Hat Enterprise Linux, uses insecure permissions for the redhat-idm-console script, which allows local users to execute arbitrary code by modifying the script.

Red Hat Directory Server 7.1 before SP4 uses insecure permissions for certain directories, which allows local users to modify JAR files and execute arbitrary code via unknown vectors.

Buffer overflow in the regular expression handler in Red Hat Directory Server 8.0 and 7.1 before SP6 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (slapd crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted LDAP query that triggers the overflow during translation to a regular expression.

Buffer overflow in pattern.c in libxslt before 1.1.24 allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via an XSL style sheet file with a long XSLT "transformation match" condition that triggers a large number of steps.

Multiple buffer overflows in the adminutil library in CGI applications in Red Hat Directory Server 7.1 before SP7 allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (daemon crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted Accept-Language HTTP header.

Heap-based buffer overflow in Red Hat adminutil 1.1.6 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (daemon crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via % (percent) encoded HTTP input to unspecified CGI scripts in Fedora Directory Server. NOTE: this vulnerability exists because of an incorrect fix for CVE-2008-2929.

setup.exe before 2.573.2.3 in Cygwin does not properly verify the authenticity of packages, which allows remote Cygwin mirror servers or man-in-the-middle attackers to execute arbitrary code via a package list containing the MD5 checksum of a Trojan horse package.
