SGI » Irix : Security Vulnerabilities, CVEs,

Format string vulnerability in the _msgout function in rpc.pcnfsd in IBM AIX 6.1, 5.3, and earlier; IBM VIOS 2.1, 1.5, and earlier; NFS/ONCplus B.11.31_09 and earlier on HP HP-UX B.11.11, B.11.23, and B.11.31; and SGI IRIX 6.5 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via an RPC request containing format string specifiers in an invalid directory name.

Heap-based buffer overflow in libmpdemux/aviheader.c in MPlayer 1.0rc1 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a .avi file with certain large "indx truck size" and nEntriesInuse values, and a certain wLongsPerEntry value.

runpriv in SGI IRIX allows local users to bypass intended restrictions and execute arbitrary commands via shell metacharacters in a command line for a privileged binary in /usr/sysadm/privbin.

gr_osview in SGI IRIX does not drop privileges before opening files, which allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via the -s option.

gr_osview in SGI IRIX 6.5.22, and possibly other 6.5 versions, does not drop privileges when opening description files while in debug mode, which allows local users to read a line from arbitrary files via the -d and -D options, which prints the line as a formatting error.

Unknown vulnerability in rpc.mountd in SGI IRIX 6.5.25, 6.5.26, and 6.5.27 does not sufficiently restrict access rights for read-mostly exports, which allows attackers to conduct unauthorized activities.

rpc.mountd in SGI IRIX 6.5.25, 6.5.26, and 6.5.27 does not correctly allow access to anonymous clients that connect from a system whose hostname can not be determined. NOTE: while this issue occurs in a security mechanism, there is no apparent attacker role and probably does not satisfy the CVE definition of a vulnerability.

inpview in SGI IRIX allows local users to execute arbitrary commands via the SUN_TTSESSION_CMD environment variable, which is executed by inpview without dropping privileges.

Unknown vulnerability in SGI IRIX 6.5 through 6.5.22m allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via a certain UDP packet.

ifconfig "-arp" in SGI IRIX 6.5 through 6.5.22m does not properly disable ARP requests from being sent or received.

The ftp_syslog function in ftpd in SGI IRIX 6.5.20 "doesn't work with anonymous FTP," which has an unknown impact, possibly preventing the actions of anonymous users from being logged.

Unknown vulnerability in ftpd in SGI IRIX 6.5.20 through 6.5.23 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (hang) via a link failure with Microsoft Windows.

Unknown vulnerability in rpc.mountd for SGI IRIX 6.5.24 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop) via certain RPC requests.

Unknown vulnerability in the bsd.a kernel networking for SGI IRIX 6.5.22 through 6.5.25, and possibly earlier versions, in which "t_unbind changes t_bind's behavior," has unknown impact and attack vectors.

Unknown vulnerability in init for IRIX 6.5.20 through 6.5.24 allows local users to cause a denial of service (system panic) as a result of "page invalidation issues."

The mapelf32exec function call in IRIX 6.5.20 through 6.5.24 allows local users to cause a denial of service (system crash) via a "corrupted binary."

The syssgi SGI_IOPROBE system call in IRIX 6.5.20 through 6.5.24 allows local users to gain privileges by reading and writing to kernel memory.

Unknown vulnerability in rpc.mountd in SGI IRIX 6.5 through 6.5.22 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (process death) via unknown attack vectors.

Unknown vulnerability in rpc.mountd SGI IRIX 6.5.18 through 6.5.22 allows remote attackers to mount from unprivileged ports even with the -n option disabled.

The prescan function in Sendmail 8.12.9 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via buffer overflow attacks, as demonstrated using the parseaddr function in parseaddr.c.

The DNS map code in Sendmail 8.12.8 and earlier, when using the "enhdnsbl" feature, does not properly initialize certain data structures, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (process crash) via an invalid DNS response that causes Sendmail to free incorrect data.

NFS in SGI 6.5.21m and 6.5.21f does not perform access checks in certain configurations when an /etc/exports entry uses wildcards without any hostnames or groups, which could allow attackers to bypass intended restrictions.

Unknown vulnerability in NFS for SGI IRIX 6.5.21 and earlier may allow an NFS client to bypass read-only restrictions.

Unknown vulnerability in the libcpr library for the Checkpoint/Restart (cpr) system on SGI IRIX 6.5.21f and earlier allows local users to truncate or overwrite certain files.

Unknown vulnerability in the NFS daemon (nfsd) in SGI IRIX 6.5.19f and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (kernel panic) via certain packets that cause XDR decoding errors, a different vulnerability than CVE-2003-0619.
