Security Vulnerabilities, CVEs, Published In April 2004

lserver in SAP DB 7.3 and earlier uses the current working directory to find and execute the lserversrv program, which allows local users to gain privileges with a malicious lserversrv that is called from a directory that has a symlink to the lserver program.

SAP R/3 2.0B to 4.6D installs several clients with default users and passwords, which allows remote attackers to gain privileges via the (1) SAP*, (2) SAPCPIC, (3) DDIC, (4) EARLYWATCH, or (5) TMSADM accounts.

The default installation of SAP R/3, when using Oracle and SQL*net V2 3.x, 4.x, and 6.10, allows remote attackers to obtain arbitrary, sensitive SAP data by directly connecting to the Oracle database and executing queries against the database, which is not password-protected.

SAP GUI (Sapgui) 4.6D allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a connection to a high-numbered port, which generates an "unknown connection data" error.

The (1) halstead and (2) gather_stats scripts in metrics 1.0 allow local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on temporary files.

Format string vulnerability in the printer capability for IBM AIX .3, 5.1, and 5.2 allows local users to gain printq or root privileges.

Microsoft Internet Explorer allows remote attackers to bypass intended cookie access restrictions on a web application via "%2e%2e" (encoded dot dot) directory traversal sequences in a URL, which causes Internet Explorer to send the cookie outside the specified URL subsets, e.g. to a vulnerable application that runs on the same server as the target application.

Apple Safari allows remote attackers to bypass intended cookie access restrictions on a web application via "%2e%2e" (encoded dot dot) directory traversal sequences in a URL, which causes Safari to send the cookie outside the specified URL subsets, e.g. to a vulnerable application that runs on the same server as the target application.

Konqueror in KDE 3.1.3 and earlier (kdelibs) allows remote attackers to bypass intended cookie access restrictions on a web application via "%2e%2e" (encoded dot dot) directory traversal sequences in a URL, which causes Konqueror to send the cookie outside the specified URL subsets, e.g. to a vulnerable application that runs on the same server as the target application.

Opera allows remote attackers to bypass intended cookie access restrictions on a web application via "%2e%2e" (encoded dot dot) directory traversal sequences in a URL, which causes Opera to send the cookie outside the specified URL subsets, e.g. to a vulnerable application that runs on the same server as the target application.

Mozilla allows remote attackers to bypass intended cookie access restrictions on a web application via "%2e%2e" (encoded dot dot) directory traversal sequences in a URL, which causes Mozilla to send the cookie outside the specified URL subsets, e.g. to a vulnerable application that runs on the same server as the target application.

Unknown vulnerability in Windows Media Station Service and Windows Media Monitor Service components of Windows Media Services 4.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (disallowing new connections) via a certain sequence of TCP/IP packets.

The (1) instdbmsrv and (2) instlserver programs in SAP DB Development Tools 7.x trust the user-provided INSTROOT environment variable as a path when assigning setuid permissions to the lserver program, which allows local users to gain root privileges via a modified INSTROOT that points to a malicious dbmsrv or lserver program.

The RPM installation of SAP DB 7.x creates the (1) dbmsrv or (2) lserver programs with world-writable permissions, which allows local users to gain privileges by modifying those programs.

The default installation of SAP R/3 46C/D allows remote attackers to bypass account locking by using the RFC API instead of the SAPGUI to conduct a brute force password guessing attack, which does not lock out the account like the SAPGUI does.

Multiple buffer overflows in the AGate component for SAP Internet Transaction Server (ITS) allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via long (1) ~command, (2) ~runtimemode, or (3) ~session parameters, or (4) a long HTTP Content-Type header.

Format string vulnerability in the WGate component for SAP Internet Transaction Server (ITS) allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a high "trace level."

The AGate component for SAP Internet Transaction Server (ITS) allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information via a ~command parameter with an AgateInstallCheck value, which provides a list of installed DLLs and full pathnames.

Multiple buffer overflows in the mySAP.com architecture for SAP allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long HTTP Host header to (1) Message Server, (2) Web Dispatcher, or (3) Application Server.

kmod in the Linux kernel does not set its uid, suid, gid, or sgid to 0, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (crash) by sending certain signals to kmod.

The (1) post and (2) trigger scripts in sysstat 4.0.7 and earlier allow local users to overwrite arbitrary files via symlink attacks on temporary files, a different vulnerability than CVE-2004-0108.

The isag utility, which processes sysstat data, allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on temporary files, a different vulnerability than CAN-2004-0107.

gdk-pixbuf before 0.20 allows attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a malformed bitmap (BMP) file.

Argument injection vulnerability in Microsoft Outlook 2002 does not sufficiently filter parameters of mailto: URLs when using them as arguments when calling OUTLOOK.EXE, which allows remote attackers to use script code in the Local Machine zone and execute arbitrary programs.

Microsoft MSN Messenger 6.0 and 6.1 does not properly handle certain requests, which allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files.
