rmmount in SunOS 5.7 may mount file systems without the nosuid flag set, contrary to the documentation and its use in previous versions of SunOS, which could allow local users with physical access to gain root privileges by mounting a floppy or CD-ROM that contains a setuid program and running volcheck, when the file systems do not have the nosuid option specified in rmmount.conf.

Multiple TCP/IP and ICMP implementations allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (reset TCP connections) via spoofed ICMP error messages, aka the "blind connection-reset attack." NOTE: CVE-2004-0790, CVE-2004-0791, and CVE-2004-1060 have been SPLIT based on different attacks; CVE-2005-0065, CVE-2005-0066, CVE-2005-0067, and CVE-2005-0068 are related identifiers that are SPLIT based on the underlying vulnerability. While CVE normally SPLITs based on vulnerability, the attack-based identifiers exist due to the variety and number of affected implementations and solutions that address the attacks instead of the underlying vulnerabilities.

Directory traversal vulnerability in printd line printer daemon (lpd) in Solaris 7 through 10 allows remote attackers to delete arbitrary files via ".." sequences in an "Unlink data file" command.

Directory traversal vulnerability in Sun Kodak Color Management System (KCMS) library service daemon (kcms_server) allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files via the KCS_OPEN_PROFILE procedure.

Multiple TCP implementations could allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (bandwidth and CPU exhaustion) by setting the maximum segment size (MSS) to a very small number and requesting large amounts of data, which generates more packets with less TCP-level data that amplify network traffic and consume more server CPU to process.

Multiple TCP/IP and ICMP implementations allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (network throughput reduction for TCP connections) via a blind throughput-reduction attack using spoofed Source Quench packets, aka the "ICMP Source Quench attack." NOTE: CVE-2004-0790, CVE-2004-0791, and CVE-2004-1060 have been SPLIT based on different attacks; CVE-2005-0065, CVE-2005-0066, CVE-2005-0067, and CVE-2005-0068 are related identifiers that are SPLIT based on the underlying vulnerability. While CVE normally SPLITs based on vulnerability, the attack-based identifiers exist due to the variety and number of affected implementations and solutions that address the attacks instead of the underlying vulnerabilities.

Denial of service in BIND named via consuming more than "fdmax" file descriptors.

X Display Manager (XDM) on Solaris 8 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (XDM crash) via an invalid X Display Manager Control Protocol (XDMCP) request.

Buffer overflow in the syslog daemon for Solaris 2.6 through 9 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (syslogd crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via long syslog UDP packets.

Directory traversal vulnerabilities in multiple FTP clients on UNIX systems allow remote malicious FTP servers to create or overwrite files as the client user via filenames containing /absolute/path or .. (dot dot) sequences.

Unknown vulnerability in the tcsetattr function for Sun Solaris for SPARC 2.6, 7, and 8 allows local users to cause a denial of service (system hang).

Unknown vulnerability in UDP RPC for Solaris 2.5.1 through 9 for SPARC, and 2.5.1 through 8 for x86, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via certain arguments in RPC calls that cause large amounts of memory to be allocated.

The getdbm procedure in ypxfrd allows local users to read arbitrary files, and remote attackers to read databases outside /var/yp, via a directory traversal and symlink attack on the domain and map arguments.

Denial of service in Solaris TCP streams driver via a malicious connection that causes the server to panic as a result of recursive calls to mutex_enter.

Unknown vulnerability in NFS on Solaris 2.5.1 through Solaris 9 allows an NFS client to cause a denial of service by killing the lockd daemon.

cachefsd in Solaris 2.6, 7, and 8 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via an invalid procedure call in an RPC request.

Solaris 7, 8, and 9 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (hang) via a flood of certain ARP packets.

The Telnet daemon (in.telnetd) for Solaris 2.6 through 9 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption by infinite loop).

Unknown vulnerability in rpcbind for Solaris 2.6 through 9 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (rpcbind crash).

Unknown vulnerability in the FTP server (in.ftpd) for Solaris 2.6 through 9 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (temporary FTP server hang), which affects other active mode FTP clients.

The NFS Server for Solaris 7, 8, and 9 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (UFS panic) via certain invalid UFS requests, which triggers a null dereference.

Unknown vulnerability in NIS+ on Solaris 7, 8, and 9 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (rpc.nisd disabled and NIS+ unavailable) via unknown vectors.

Solaris dmispd dmi_cmd allows local users to fill up restricted disk space by adding files to the /var/dmi/db database.

Unknown vulnerability in the System Serial Console terminal in Solaris 2.5.1, 2.6, and 7 allows local users to monitor keystrokes and possibly steal sensitive information.

Buffer overflow in mailx in Solaris 8 and earlier allows a local attacker to gain additional privileges via a long '-F' command line option.
