SGI Irix 6.5.16m

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

xfsdq in xfsdump does not create quota information files securely, which allows local users to gain root privileges.

The syssgi SGI_IOPROBE system call in IRIX 6.5.20 through 6.5.24 allows local users to gain privileges by reading and writing to kernel memory.

cpr (libcpr) in SGI IRIX before 6.5.25 allows local users to gain privileges by loading a user provided library while restarting the checkpointed process.

The Sun RPC functionality in multiple libc implementations does not provide a time-out mechanism when reading data from TCP connections, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (hang).

Unknown vulnerability in SGI IRIX 6.5 through 6.5.22m allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via a certain UDP packet.

Unknown vulnerability in nsd in SGI IRIX 6.5.x through 6.5.20f, and possibly earlier versions, allows attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption).

The DNS callbacks in nsd in SGI IRIX 6.5.x through 6.5.20f, and possibly earlier versions, do not perform sufficient sanity checking, with unknown impact.

The Name Service Daemon (nsd), when running on an NIS master on SGI IRIX 6.5.x through 6.5.20f, and possibly earlier versions, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a UDP port scan.

The Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) allows local users to cause a denial of service via an IGMP membership report to a target's Ethernet address instead of the Multicast group address, which causes the target to stop sending reports to the router and effectively disconnect the group from the network.

Buffer overflow in uux in eoe.sw.uucp package of SGI IRIX 6.5 through 6.5.17 allows local users to execute arbitrary code via unknown attack vectors.

fsr_efs in IRIX 6.5 allows local users to conduct unauthorized file activities via a symlink attack, possibly via the .fsrlast file.

SGI IRIX 6.5.x through 6.5.20f, and possibly earlier versions, does not follow "-" entries in the /etc/group file, which may cause subsequent group membership entries to be processed inadvertently.

rpcbind in SGI IRIX, when using the -w command line switch, allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack.

mv in IRIX 6.5 creates a directory with world-writable permissions while moving a directory, which could allow local users to modify files and directories.

gr_osview in SGI IRIX does not drop privileges before opening files, which allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via the -s option.

SGI IRIX before 6.5.21 allows local users to cause a denial of service (kernel panic) via a certain call to the PIOCSWATCH ioctl.

SGI IRIX 6.5 through 6.5.17 creates temporary desktop files with world-writable permissions, which allows local users to overwrite or corrupt those files.
