HP » Hp-ux : Security Vulnerabilities, CVEs, Published In 2003

Buffer overflow in rwrite for HP-UX 11.0 could allow local users to execute arbitrary code via a long argument. NOTE: the vendor was unable to reproduce the problem on a system that had been patched for an lp vulnerability (CVE-2002-1473).

Buffer overflow in wall for HP-UX 10.20 through 11.11 may allow local users to execute arbitrary code by calling wall with a large file as an argument.

Buffer overflow in disable of HP-UX 11.0 may allow local users to execute arbitrary code via a long argument to the (1) -r or (2)-c options.

Buffer overflow in the setupterm function of (1) lanadmin and (2) landiag programs of HP-UX 10.0 through 10.34 allows local users to execute arbitrary code via a long TERM environment variable.

Buffer overflow in stmkfont utility of HP-UX 10.0 through 11.22 allows local users to gain privileges via a long command line argument.

rs.F300 for HP-UX 10.0 through 11.22 uses the PATH environment variable to find and execute programs such as rm while operating at raised privileges, which allows local users to gain privileges by modifying the path to point to a malicious rm program.

The "file handling" in sort in HP-UX 10.01 through 10.20, and 11.00 through 11.11 is "incorrect," which allows attackers to gain access or cause a denial of service via unknown vectors.

The Xserver for HP-UX 11.22 was not properly built, which introduced a vulnerability that allows local users to gain privileges.

Buffer overflow in rexec on HP-UX B.10.20, B.11.00, and B.11.04, when setuid root, may allow local users to gain privileges via a long -l option.

Unknown vulnerability in diagmond and possibly other applications in HP9000 Series 700/800 running HP-UX B.11.00, B.11.04, B.11.11, and B.11.22 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (program failure) via certain network traffic.

Partition Manager (parmgr) in HP-UX B.11.23 does not properly validate certificates that are provided by the cimserver, which allows attackers to obtain sensitive data or gain privileges.

ISC BIND 8.3.x before 8.3.7, and 8.4.x before 8.4.3, allows remote attackers to poison the cache via a malicious name server that returns negative responses with a large TTL (time-to-live) value.

Buffer overflow in dtprintinfo on HP-UX 11.00, and possibly other operating systems, allows local users to gain root privileges via a long DISPLAY environment variable.

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.

A "potential buffer overflow in ruleset parsing" for Sendmail 8.12.9, when using the nonstandard rulesets (1) recipient (2), final, or (3) mailer-specific envelope recipients, has unknown consequences.

Multiple buffer overflows in kermit in HP-UX 10.20 and 11.00 (C-Kermit 6.0.192 and possibly other versions before 8.0) allow local users to gain privileges via long arguments to (1) ask, (2) askq, (3) define, (4) assign, and (5) getc, some of which may share the same underlying function "doask," a different vulnerability than CVE-2001-0085.

Buffer overflow in the call_trans2open function in trans2.c for Samba 2.2.x before 2.2.8a, 2.0.10 and earlier 2.0.x versions, and Samba-TNG before 0.3.2, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code.

Multiple buffer overflows in Samba before 2.2.8a may allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service, as discovered by the Samba team and a different vulnerability than CVE-2003-0201.

The prescan() function in the address parser (parseaddr.c) in Sendmail before 8.12.9 does not properly handle certain conversions from char and int types, which can cause a length check to be disabled when Sendmail misinterprets an input value as a special "NOCHAR" control value, allowing attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary code via a buffer overflow attack using messages, a different vulnerability than CVE-2002-1337.

Buffer overflow in the Software Distributor utilities for HP-UX B.11.00 and B.11.11 allows local users to execute arbitrary code via a long LANG environment variable to setuid programs such as (1) swinstall and (2) swmodify.

The dtterm terminal emulator allows attackers to modify the window title via a certain character escape sequence and then insert it back to the command line in the user's terminal, e.g. when the user views a file containing the malicious sequence, which could allow the attacker to execute arbitrary commands.

Integer overflow in the xdrmem_getbytes() function, and possibly other functions, of XDR (external data representation) libraries derived from SunRPC, including libnsl, libc, glibc, and dietlibc, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via certain integer values in length fields, a different vulnerability than CVE-2002-0391.

Multiple buffer overflows in lp subsystem for HP-UX 10.20 through 11.11 (11i) allow local users to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary code.

ptrace on HP-UX 11.00 through 11.11 allows local users to cause a denial of service (data page fault panic) via "an incorrect reference to thread register state."

Unknown vulnerability in passwd for VVOS HP-UX 11.04, with unknown impact, related to "Unexpected behavior."
