CVE-2004-0548 2 Gentoo, Gnu 2 Linux, Aspell 2016-11-28 7.2 HIGH N/A
Multiple stack-based buffer overflows in the word-list-compress functionality in compress.c for Aspell allow local users to execute arbitrary code via a long entry in the wordlist that is not properly handled when using the (1) "c" compress option or (2) "d" decompress option.
CVE-2005-2878 1 Gnu 1 Mailutils 2016-10-17 7.5 HIGH N/A
Format string vulnerability in search.c in the imap4d server in GNU Mailutils 0.6 allows remote authenticated users to execute arbitrary code via format string specifiers in the SEARCH command.
CVE-2005-2180 1 Gnu 1 Gnats 2016-10-17 2.1 LOW N/A
gen-index in GNATS 4.0, 4.1.0, and possibly earlier versions, when installed setuid, does not properly check files passed to the -o argument and opens the file with write access, which allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files.
CVE-2005-0080 2 Gnu, Ubuntu 2 Mailman, Ubuntu Linux 2016-10-17 5.0 MEDIUM N/A
The 55_options_traceback.dpatch patch for mailman 2.1.5 in Ubuntu 4.10 displays a different error message depending on whether the e-mail address is subscribed to a private list, which allows remote attackers to determine the list membership for a given e-mail address.
CVE-2004-1382 1 Gnu 1 Glibc 2016-10-17 2.1 LOW N/A
The glibcbug script in glibc 2.3.4 and earlier allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on temporary files, a different vulnerability than CVE-2004-0968.
CVE-2003-0972 1 Gnu 1 Screen 2016-10-17 10.0 HIGH N/A
Integer signedness error in ansi.c for GNU screen 4.0.1 and earlier, and 3.9.15 and earlier, allows local users to execute arbitrary code via a large number of ";" (semicolon) characters in escape sequences, which leads to a buffer overflow.
CVE-2003-0849 1 Gnu 1 Cfengine 2016-10-17 7.5 HIGH N/A
Buffer overflow in net.c for cfengine 2.x before 2.0.8 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via certain packets with modified length values, which is trusted by the ReceiveTransaction function when using a buffer provided by the BusyWithConnection function.
CVE-2003-0826 1 Gnu 1 Lsh 2016-10-17 7.5 HIGH N/A
lsh daemon (lshd) does not properly return from certain functions in (1) read_line.c, (2) channel_commands.c, or (3) client_keyexchange.c when long input is provided, which could allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a heap-based buffer overflow attack.
CVE-2003-0795 3 Gnu, Quagga, Sgi 3 Zebra, Quagga, Propack 2016-10-17 5.0 MEDIUM N/A
The vty layer in Quagga before 0.96.4, and Zebra 0.93b and earlier, does not verify that sub-negotiation is taking place when processing the SE marker, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a malformed telnet command to the telnet CLI port, which may trigger a null dereference.
CVE-2002-1216 1 Gnu 1 Tar 2016-10-17 5.0 MEDIUM N/A
GNU tar 1.13.19 and other versions before 1.13.25 allows remote attackers to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack, as the result of a modification that effectively disabled the security check.
CVE-2002-0684 2 Gnu, Isc 2 Glibc, Bind 2016-10-17 7.5 HIGH N/A
Buffer overflow in DNS resolver functions that perform lookup of network names and addresses, as used in BIND 4.9.8 and ported to glibc 2.2.5 and earlier, allows remote malicious DNS servers to execute arbitrary code through a subroutine used by functions such as getnetbyname and getnetbyaddr.
CVE-2002-0204 1 Gnu 1 Chess 2016-10-17 7.5 HIGH N/A
Buffer overflow in GNU Chess (gnuchess) 5.02 and earlier, if modified or used in a networked capacity contrary to its own design as a single-user application, may allow local or remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long command.
CVE-2002-0178 1 Gnu 1 Sharutils 2016-10-17 7.2 HIGH N/A
uudecode, as available in the sharutils package before 4.2.1, does not check whether the filename of the uudecoded file is a pipe or symbolic link, which could allow attackers to overwrite files or execute commands.
CVE-2000-0786 1 Gnu 1 Userv 2016-10-17 4.6 MEDIUM N/A
GNU userv 1.0.0 and earlier does not properly perform file descriptor swapping, which can corrupt the USERV_GROUPS and USERV_GIDS environmental variables and allow local users to bypass some access restrictions.
CVE-1999-1383 2 Gnu, Tcsh 2 Bash, Tcsh 2016-10-17 4.6 MEDIUM N/A
(1) bash before 1.14.7, and (2) tcsh 6.05 allow local users to gain privileges via directory names that contain shell metacharacters (` back-tick), which can cause the commands enclosed in the directory name to be executed when the shell expands filenames using the \w option in the PS1 variable.
CVE-1999-1165 1 Gnu 1 Fingerd 2016-10-17 7.2 HIGH N/A
GNU fingerd 1.37 does not properly drop privileges before accessing user information, which could allow local users to (1) gain root privileges via a malicious program in the .fingerrc file, or (2) read arbitrary files via symbolic links from .plan, .forward, or .project files.
CVE-2006-2191 1 Gnu 1 Mailman 2016-08-30 7.5 HIGH N/A
** DISPUTED ** Format string vulnerability in Mailman before 2.1.9 allows attackers to execute arbitrary code via unspecified vectors. NOTE: the vendor has disputed this vulnerability, stating that it is "unexploitable."
CVE-2014-3424 2 Gnu, Mageia Project 2 Emacs, Mageia 2016-06-30 3.3 LOW N/A
lisp/net/tramp-sh.el in GNU Emacs 24.3 and earlier allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on a /tmp/tramp.##### temporary file.
CVE-2014-3423 2 Gnu, Mageia Project 2 Emacs, Mageia 2016-06-30 3.3 LOW N/A
lisp/net/browse-url.el in GNU Emacs 24.3 and earlier allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on a /tmp/Mosaic.##### temporary file.
CVE-2014-3422 2 Gnu, Mageia Project 2 Emacs, Mageia 2016-06-30 3.3 LOW N/A
lisp/emacs-lisp/find-gc.el in GNU Emacs 24.3 and earlier allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on a temporary file under /tmp/esrc/.
