Security Vulnerabilities, CVEs, Published In October 1999 CVSS score >= 7

Buffer overflows in Linux cdwtools 093 and earlier allows local users to gain root privileges.

Microsoft Virtual Machine (VM) allows remote attackers to escape the Java sandbox and execute commands via an applet containing an illegal cast operation, aka the "Virtual Machine Verifier" vulnerability.

RPMMail before 1.4 allows remote attackers to execute commands via an e-mail message with shell metacharacters in the "MAIL FROM" command.

shell-lock in Cactus Software Shell Lock allows local users to read or modify decoded shell files before they are executed, via a symlink attack on a temporary file.

Buffer overflow in Sambar Web Server 4.2.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service, and possibly execute arbitrary commands, via a long HTTP GET request.

Netscape Communicator 4.04 through 4.7 (and possibly other versions) in various UNIX operating systems converts the 0x8b character to a "<" sign, and the 0x9b character to a ">" sign, which could allow remote attackers to attack other clients via cross-site scripting (CSS) in CGI programs that do not filter these characters.

PAM configuration file for rlogin in Red Hat Linux 6.1 and earlier includes a less restrictive rule before a more restrictive one, which allows users to access the host via rlogin even if rlogin has been explicitly disabled using the /etc/nologin file.

Auto_FTP.pl script in Auto_FTP 0.2 stores usernames and passwords in plaintext in the auto_ftp.conf configuration file.

When BSDI patches for Gauntlet 5.0 BSDI are installed in a particular order, Gauntlet allows remote attackers to bypass firewall access restrictions, and does not log the activities.

Buffer overflow in OmniHTTPd CGI program imagemap.exe allows remote attackers to execute commands.

Buffer overflow in WFTPD FTP server allows remote attackers to gain root access via a series of MKD and CWD commands that create nested directories.

IBM WebSphere ikeyman tool uses weak encryption to store a password for a key database that is used for SSL connections.

Buffer overflow in OpenLink 3.2 allows remote attackers to gain privileges via a long GET request to the web configurator.

UnixWare dos7utils allows a local user to gain root privileges by using the STATICMERGE environmental variable to find a script which it executes.

genfilt in the AIX Packet Filtering Module does not properly filter traffic to destination ports greater than 32767.

ypserv allows local administrators to modify password tables.

ypserv allows a local user to modify the GECOS and login shells of other users.

Buffer overflow in rpc.yppasswdd allows a local user to gain privileges via MD5 hash generation.

Firewall-1 does not properly restrict access to LDAP attributes.

Zeus web server allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files by specifying the file name in an option to the search engine.

Buffer overflow in WU-FTPD and related FTP servers allows remote attackers to gain root privileges via macro variables in a message file.

Buffer overflow in Skyfull mail server via MAIL FROM command.

Hybrid Network cable modems do not include an authentication mechanism for administration, allowing remote attackers to compromise the system through the HSMP protocol.

The Microsoft Java Virtual Machine allows a malicious Java applet to execute arbitrary commands outside of the sandbox environment.
