Unknown vulnerability in sendmail for Solaris 7, 8, and 9 allows local users to cause a denial of service (unknown impact) and possibly gain privileges via certain constructs in a .forward file.

Unknown vulnerability in the FTP server (in.ftpd) for Solaris 2.6 through 9 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (temporary FTP server hang), which affects other active mode FTP clients.

Unknown vulnerability in newtask for Solaris 9 allows local users to gain root privileges.

A race condition in the at command for Solaris 2.6 through 9 allows local users to delete arbitrary files via the -r argument with .. (dot dot) sequences in the job name, then modifying the directory structure after at checks permissions to delete the file and before the deletion actually takes place.

Unknown vulnerability in rpcbind for Solaris 2.6 through 9 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (rpcbind crash).

The Telnet daemon (in.telnetd) for Solaris 2.6 through 9 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption by infinite loop).

Buffer overflow in utmp_update for Solaris 2.6 through 9 allows local users to gain root privileges, as identified by Sun BugID 4659277, a different vulnerability than CVE-2003-1082.

Multiple buffer overflows in the (1) dbm_open function, as used in ndbm and dbm, and the (2) dbminit function in Solaris 2.6 through 9 allow local users to gain root privileges via long arguments to Xsun or other programs that use these functions.

Buffer overflow in the syslog daemon for Solaris 2.6 through 9 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (syslogd crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via long syslog UDP packets.

Race condition in Solaris 2.6 through 9 allows local users to cause a denial of service (kernel panic), as demonstrated via the namefs function, pipe, and certain STREAMS routines.

The NFS Server for Solaris 7, 8, and 9 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (UFS panic) via certain invalid UFS requests, which triggers a null dereference.

The Xsun server for Sun Solaris 2.6 through 9, when running in Direct Graphics Access (DGA) mode, allows local users to cause a denial of service (Xsun crash) or to create or overwrite arbitrary files on the system, probably via a symlink attack on temporary server files.

Unknown vulnerability in CDE Print Viewer (dtprintinfo) for Sun Solaris 2.6 through 9 may allow local users to execute arbitrary code.

Buffer overflow in the nss_ldap.so.1 library for Sun Solaris 8 and 9 may allow local users to gain root access via a long hostname in an LDAP lookup.

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.

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.

Unknown vulnerability in Solaris 2.6 through 9 causes a denial of service (system panic) via "a rare race condition" or an attack by local users.

Stack-based buffer overflow in the runtime linker, ld.so.1, on Solaris 2.6 through 9 allows local users to gain root privileges via a long LD_PRELOAD environment variable.

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.

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.
