IBM : Security Vulnerabilities, CVEs, Published In November 2004

The ctstrtcasd program in RSCT 2.3.0.0 and earlier on IBM AIX 5.2 and 5.3 does not properly drop privileges before executing the -f option, which allows local users to modify or create arbitrary files.

PHP 4.3.4 and earlier in Apache 1.x and 2.x (mod_php) can leak global variables between virtual hosts that are handled by the same Apache child process but have different settings, which could allow remote attackers to obtain sensitive information.

IBM Cloudscape 5.1 running jdk 1.4.2_03 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary programs or cause a denial of service via certain SQL code, possibly due to a SQL injection vulnerability.

AIX 4.3.3 through AIX 5.1, when direct remote login is disabled, displays a different message if the password is correct, which allows remote attackers to guess the password via brute force methods.
