Heap overflow in FTP daemon in Solaris 8 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands by creating a long pathname and calling the LIST command, which uses glob to generate long strings.

Buffer overflows in BSD-based FTP servers allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via a long pattern string containing a {} sequence, as seen in (1) g_opendir, (2) g_lstat, (3) g_stat, and (4) the glob0 buffer as used in the glob functions glob2 and glob3.

The line printer daemon (lpd) in the lpr package in multiple Linux operating systems authenticates by comparing the reverse-resolved hostname of the local machine to the hostname of the print server as returned by gethostname, which allows remote attackers to bypass intended access controls by modifying the DNS for the attacking IP.

Some functions that implement the locale subsystem on Unix do not properly cleanse user-injected format strings, which allows local attackers to execute arbitrary commands via functions such as gettext and catopen.

The line printer daemon (lpd) in the lpr package in multiple Linux operating systems allows local users to gain root privileges by causing sendmail to execute with arbitrary command line arguments, as demonstrated using the -C option to specify a configuration file.

rpc.ypupdated (NIS) allows remote users to execute arbitrary commands.

Telnetd telnet server in IRIX 5.2 through 6.1 does not properly cleans user-injected format strings, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via a long RLD variable in the IAC-SB-TELOPT_ENVIRON request.

Vulnerability in SGI IRIX objectserver daemon allows remote attackers to create user accounts.

Buffer overflow in FTP server in HPUX 11 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands by creating a long pathname and calling the STAT command, which uses glob to generate long strings.

Buffer overflow in statd allows root privileges.

Unknown vulnerability in the AUTH_DES authentication for RPC in Solaris 2.5.1, 2.6, and 7, SGI IRIX 6.5 to 6.5.19f, and possibly other platforms, allows remote attackers to gain privileges.

SGI IRIX midikeys program allows local users to modify arbitrary files via a text editor.

Guessable magic cookies in X Windows allows remote attackers to execute commands, e.g. through xterm.

Buffer overflows in lpsched in IRIX 6.5.13f and earlier allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via a long argument.

xfsmd for IRIX 6.5 through 6.5.16 uses weak authentication, which allows remote attackers to call dangerous RPC functions, including those that can mount or unmount xfs file systems, to gain root privileges.

Versions of rpcbind including Linux, IRIX, and Wietse Venema's rpcbind allow a remote attacker to insert and delete entries by spoofing a source address.

The truncate function in IRIX 6.x does not properly check for privileges when the file is in the xfs file system, which allows local users to delete the contents of arbitrary files.

Telnet allows a remote client to specify environment variables including LD_LIBRARY_PATH, allowing an attacker to bypass the normal system libraries and gain root access.

Heap-based buffer overflow in the name services daemon (nsd) in SGI IRIX 6.5.x through 6.5.21f, and possibly earlier versions, allows attackers to gain root privileges via the AUTH_UNIX gid list.

The default configuration of the Array Services daemon (arrayd) disables authentication, allowing remote users to gain root privileges.

Unknown vulnerability in the IPv6 capability in IRIX 6.5.19 causes snoop to process packets as the root user, with unknown implications.

Vulnerability in object server program in SGI IRIX 5.2 through 6.1 allows remote attackers to gain root privileges in certain configurations.

Unknown vulnerability in the bsd.a kernel networking for SGI IRIX 6.5.22 through 6.5.25, and possibly earlier versions, in which "t_unbind changes t_bind's behavior," has unknown impact and attack vectors.

The LDAP name service (nsd) in IRIX 6.5.19 and earlier does not properly verify if the USERPASSWORD attribute has been provided by an LDAP server, which could allow attackers to log in without a password.

IRIX login program with a nonzero LOCKOUT parameter allows creation or damage to files.

Buffer overflow in xlock program allows local users to execute commands as root.

root privileges via buffer overflow in ordist command on SGI IRIX systems.

Local user gains root privileges via buffer overflow in rdist, via expstr() function.

Heap-based buffer overflow in libmpdemux/aviheader.c in MPlayer 1.0rc1 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a .avi file with certain large "indx truck size" and nEntriesInuse values, and a certain wLongsPerEntry value.

System Manager sysmgr GUI in SGI IRIX 6.4 and 6.3 allows remote attackers to execute commands by providing a trojan horse (1) runtask or (2) runexec descriptor file, which is used to execute a System Manager Task when the user's Mailcap entry supports the x-sgi-task or x-sgi-exec type.

Buffer overflow in Dispatch() routine for XFS font server (fs.auto) on Solaris 2.5.1 through 9 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) or execute arbitrary code via a certain XFS query.
