SGI Irix 6.5.20

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.

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.

Unknown vulnerability in SGI IRIX 6.5.x through 6.5.20, and possibly earlier versions, allows local users to cause a core dump in scheme and possibly gain privileges via certain environment variables, a different vulnerability than CVE-2001-0797 and CVE-1999-0028.

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 DNS map code in Sendmail 8.12.8 and earlier, when using the "enhdnsbl" feature, does not properly initialize certain data structures, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (process crash) via an invalid DNS response that causes Sendmail to free incorrect data.

Unknown vulnerability in ftpd in SGI IRIX 6.5.20 through 6.5.23 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (hang) via a link failure with Microsoft Windows.

Unknown vulnerability in rpc.mountd in SGI IRIX 6.5 through 6.5.22 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (process death) via unknown attack vectors.

Unknown vulnerability in ftpd in SGI IRIX 6.5.20 through 6.5.23 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (hang) via the PORT mode.

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.

The ftp_syslog function in ftpd in SGI IRIX 6.5.20 "doesn't work with anonymous FTP," which has an unknown impact, possibly preventing the actions of anonymous users from being logged.

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.
