A certain debugging component in IBM AIX 5.3 and 6.1 does not properly handle the (1) _LIB_INIT_DBG and (2) _LIB_INIT_DBG_FILE environment variables, which allows local users to gain privileges by leveraging a setuid-root program to create an arbitra...

Buffer overflow in the syscall implementation in IBM AIX 5.3 allows local users to gain privileges via unspecified vectors.

Unspecified vulnerability in portmapper (aka portmap) in IBM AIX 5.3 allows attackers to cause a denial of service (daemon hang) via unknown vectors, related to libtli.

The malloc subsystem in libc in IBM AIX 5.3 and 6.1 allows local users to create or overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on the log file associated with the MALLOCDEBUG environment variable.

Stack-based buffer overflow in muxatmd in IBM AIX 5.2, 5.3, and 6.1 allows local users to gain privileges via a long filename.

Buffer overflow in pppdial in IBM AIX 5.3 and 6.1 allows local users to gain privileges via a long "input string."

at in bos.rte.cron on IBM AIX 5.2.0, 5.3.0 through 5.3.9, and 6.1.0 through 6.1.2 allows local users to read arbitrary files via unspecified vectors, related to failure to drop root privileges.

Multiple unspecified vulnerabilities in IBM AIX 5.2.0 through 6.1.2 allow local users to append data to arbitrary files, related to (1) rmsock and (2) rmsock64 not creating "secure log files."

crontab in bos.rte.cron in IBM AIX 6.1.0 through 6.1.2 allows local users with aix.system.config.cron authorization to gain privileges by launching an editor.

enq in bos.rte.printers in IBM AIX 6.1.0 through 6.1.2, when a print queue is defined in /etc/qconfig, allows local users to delete arbitrary files via unspecified vectors.
