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.

Buffer overflow in admintool in Solaris 2.6, 7, and 8 allows local users to gain root privileges via a long media installation path.

Unknown vulnerability in Sun Solaris 8.0 allows local users to cause a denial of service (kernel panic) via a program that uses /dev/poll, triggering a NULL pointer dereference.

Unknown vulnerability in LDAP on Sun Solaris 8 and 9, when using Role Based Access Control (RBAC), allows local users to execute certain commands with additional privileges.

The Web-Based Enterprise Management (WBEM) packages (1) SUNWwbdoc, (2) SUNWwbcou, (3) SUNWwbdev and (4) SUNWmgapp packages, when installed using Solaris 8 Update 1/01 or later, install files with world or group write permissions, which allows local users to gain root privileges or cause a denial of service.

Unspecified vulnerability in the format command in Sun Solaris 8 and 9 before 20060821 allows local users to modify arbitrary files via unspecified vectors involving profiles that permit running format with elevated privileges, a different issue than CVE-2006-4306 and CVE-2006-4319.

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.

The ed editor for Sun Solaris 2.6, 7, and 8 allows local users to create or overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on temporary files.

GNOME XScreenSaver in Sun Solaris 8 and 9 before 20070417, when root is logged into the console, does not automatically lock the screen after a session has been inactive, which might allow physically proximate attackers to access the console.

Unspecified vulnerability in Sun Solaris 8, 9, and 10 before 20060925 allows local users to cause a denial of service (disable syslog) and prevent security messages from being logged via unspecified vectors.

Hyper-Threading technology, as used in FreeBSD and other operating systems that are run on Intel Pentium and other processors, allows local users to use a malicious thread to create covert channels, monitor the execution of other threads, and obtain sensitive information such as cryptographic keys, via a timing attack on memory cache misses.
