Openbsd : Security Vulnerabilities, CVEs, Published In December 2002

syslogd on OpenBSD 2.9 through 3.2 does not change the source IP address of syslog packets when the machine's IP addressed is changed without rebooting, e.g. via ifconfig, which can cause incorrect information to be sent to the syslog server.

isakmpd/message.c in isakmpd in FreeBSD before isakmpd-20020403_1, and in OpenBSD 3.1, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) by sending Internet Key Exchange (IKE) payloads out of sequence.

OpenBSD before 3.2 allows local users to cause a denial of service (kernel crash) via a call to getrlimit(2) with invalid arguments, possibly due to an integer signedness error.

The setitimer(2) system call in OpenBSD 2.0 through 3.1 does not properly check certain arguments, which allows local users to write to kernel memory and possibly gain root privileges, possibly via an integer signedness error.

Race condition in exec in OpenBSD 4.0 and earlier, NetBSD 1.5.2 and earlier, and FreeBSD 4.4 and earlier allows local users to gain privileges by attaching a debugger to a process before the kernel has determined that the process is setuid or setgid.

tip on multiple BSD-based operating systems allows local users to cause a denial of service (execution prevention) by using flock() to lock the /var/log/acculog file.

Directory traversal vulnerabilities in multiple FTP clients on UNIX systems allow remote malicious FTP servers to create or overwrite files as the client user via filenames containing /absolute/path or .. (dot dot) sequences.
