Borland Software Interbase 6.4

The admin.ib file in Borland Interbase 7.1 for Linux has default world writable permissions, which allows local users to gain database administrative privileges.

Buffer overflow gds_lock_mgr of Interbase Database 6.x allows local users to gain privileges via a long ISC_LOCK_ENV environment variable (INTERBASE_LOCK).

Buffer overflow in ibserver for Firebird Database 1.0 and other versions before 1.5, and possibly other products that use the InterBase codebase, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a long database name, as demonstrated using the gsec command.
