Netscape : Security Vulnerabilities, CVEs, Published In 2000 CVSS score >= 6

Netscape (iPlanet) Certificate Management System 4.2 and Directory Server 4.12 stores the administrative password in plaintext, which could allow local and possibly remote attackers to gain administrative privileges on the server.

csstart program in iCal 2.1 Patch 2 uses relative pathnames to install the libsocket and libnsl libraries, which could allow the icsuser account to gain root privileges by creating a Trojan Horse library in the current or parent directory.

csstart program in iCal 2.1 Patch 2 searches for the cshttpd program in the current working directory, which allows local users to gain root privileges by creating a Trojan Horse cshttpd program in a directory and calling csstart from that directory.

iCal 2.1 Patch 2 installs many files with world-writeable permissions, which allows local users to modify the iCal configuration and execute arbitrary commands by replacing the iplncal.sh program with a Trojan horse.

The GUI installation for iCal 2.1 Patch 2 disables access control for the X server using an "xhost +" command, which allows remote attackers to monitor X Windows events and gain privileges.

Buffer overflow in IMAP server in Netscape Messaging Server 4.15 Patch 2 allows local users to execute arbitrary commands via a long LIST command.

Netscape Communicator does not properly prevent a ServerSocket object from being created by untrusted entities, which allows remote attackers to create a server on the victim's system via a malicious applet, as demonstrated by Brown Orifice.

Netscape Enterprise Server in NetWare 5.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service or execute arbitrary commands via a malformed URL.

Netscape Professional Services FTP Server 1.3.6 allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files via a .. (dot dot) attack.

Netscape Enterprise Server with Web Publishing enabled allows remote attackers to list arbitrary directories via a GET request for the /publisher directory, which provides a Java applet that allows the attacker to browse the directories.

Buffer overflow in Netscape Enterprise Server and FastTrask Server allows remote attackers to gain privileges via a long HTTP GET request.
