Suse » Suse Linux : Security Vulnerabilities, CVEs, Published In January 2005

Race condition in SuSE Linux 8.1 through 9.2, when run on SMP systems that have more than 4GB of memory, could allow local users to read unauthorized memory from "foreign memory pages."

SUSE Linux before 9.1 and SUSE Linux Enterprise Server before 9 do not properly check commands sent to CD devices that have been opened read-only, which could allow local users to conduct unauthorized write activities to modify the firmware of associated SCSI devices.

The EPSF pipe support in enscript 1.6.3 allows remote attackers or local users to execute arbitrary commands via shell metacharacters.

a2ps 4.13 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via shell metacharacters in the filename.

Integer overflow in the Samba daemon (smbd) in Samba 2.x and 3.0.x through 3.0.9 allows remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (application crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a Samba request with a large number of security descriptors that triggers a heap-based buffer overflow.

MIMEDefang in MIME-tools 5.414 allows remote attackers to bypass virus scanning capabilities via an e-mail attachment with a virus that contains an empty boundary string in the Content-Type header.

Archive::Zip Perl module before 1.14, when used by antivirus programs such as amavisd-new, allows remote attackers to bypass antivirus protection via a compressed file with both local and global headers set to zero, which does not prevent the compressed file from being opened on a target system.

The open_exec function in the execve functionality (exec.c) in Linux kernel 2.4.x up to 2.4.27, and 2.6.x up to 2.6.8, allows local users to read non-readable ELF binaries by using the interpreter (PT_INTERP) functionality.

The binfmt_elf loader (binfmt_elf.c) in Linux kernel 2.4.x up to 2.4.27, and 2.6.x up to 2.6.8, may create an interpreter name string that is not NULL terminated, which could cause strings longer than PATH_MAX to be used, leading to buffer overflows that allow local users to cause a denial of service (hang) and possibly execute arbitrary code.

The binfmt_elf loader (binfmt_elf.c) in Linux kernel 2.4.x up to 2.4.27, and 2.6.x up to 2.6.8, does not properly handle a failed call to the mmap function, which causes an incorrect mapped image and may allow local users to execute arbitrary code.

The load_elf_binary function in the binfmt_elf loader (binfmt_elf.c) in Linux kernel 2.4.x up to 2.4.27, and 2.6.x up to 2.6.8, does not properly check return values from calls to the kernel_read function, which may allow local users to modify sensitive memory in a setuid program and execute arbitrary code.

Buffer overflow in mpg123 before 0.59s-r9 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via frame headers in MP2 or MP3 files.

MySQL before 4.0.20 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a MATCH AGAINST query with an opening double quote but no closing double quote.

The smb_recv_trans2 function call in the samba filesystem (smbfs) in Linux kernel 2.4 and 2.6 does not properly handle the re-assembly of fragmented packets correctly, which could allow remote samba servers to (1) read arbitrary kernel information or (2) raise a counter value to an arbitrary number by sending the first part of the fragmented packet multiple times.

RAV antivirus allows remote attackers to bypass antivirus protection via a compressed file with both local and global headers set to zero, which does not prevent the compressed file from being opened on a target system.

Eset Anti-Virus before 1.020 (16th September 2004) allows remote attackers to bypass antivirus protection via a compressed file with both local and global headers set to zero, which does not prevent the compressed file from being opened on a target system.

Kaspersky 3.x to 4.x allows remote attackers to bypass antivirus protection via a compressed file with both local and global headers set to zero, which does not prevent the compressed file from being opened on a target system.

Computer Associates (CA) InoculateIT 6.0, eTrust Antivirus r6.0 through r7.1, eTrust Antivirus for the Gateway r7.0 and r7.1, eTrust Secure Content Manager, eTrust Intrusion Detection, EZ-Armor 2.0 through 2.4, and EZ-Antivirus 6.1 through 6.3 allow remote attackers to bypass antivirus protection via a compressed file with both local and global headers set to zero, which does not prevent the compressed file from being opened on a target system.

McAfee Anti-Virus Engine DATS drivers before 4398 released on Oct 13th 2004 and DATS Driver before 4397 October 6th 2004 allows remote attackers to bypass antivirus protection via a compressed file with both local and global headers set to zero, which does not prevent the compressed file from being opened on a target system.

Heap-based buffer overflow in the OJPEGVSetField function in tif_ojpeg.c for libtiff 3.6.1 and earlier, when compiled with the OJPEG_SUPPORT (old JPEG support) option, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a malformed TIFF image.

Multiple vulnerabilities in libXpm for 6.8.1 and earlier, as used in XFree86 and other packages, include (1) multiple integer overflows, (2) out-of-bounds memory accesses, (3) directory traversal, (4) shell metacharacter, (5) endless loops, and (6) memory leaks, which could allow remote attackers to obtain sensitive information, cause a denial of service (application crash), or execute arbitrary code via a certain XPM image file. NOTE: it is highly likely that this candidate will be SPLIT into other candidates in the future, per CVE's content decisions.

Stack-based buffer overflow in the writeGroup function in nsVCardObj.cpp for Mozilla Firefox before the Preview Release, Mozilla before 1.7.3, and Thunderbird before 0.8 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via malformed VCard attachments that are not properly handled when previewing a message.

Multiple heap-based buffer overflows in Mozilla Firefox before the Preview Release, Mozilla before 1.7.3, and Thunderbird before 0.8 allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or execute arbitrary code via (1) the "Send page" functionality, (2) certain responses from a malicious POP3 server, or (3) a link containing a non-ASCII hostname.

Multiple integer overflows in xpdf 3.0, and other packages that use xpdf code such as CUPS, allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code, a different set of vulnerabilities than those identified by CVE-2004-0888.

Multiple integer overflows in xpdf 2.0 and 3.0, and other packages that use xpdf code such as CUPS, gpdf, and kdegraphics, allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code, a different set of vulnerabilities than those identified by CVE-2004-0889.
