Untrusted execution path vulnerability in chcod on AIX IBM 5.1.0, 5.2.0, and 5.3.0 allows local users to execute arbitrary programs by modifying the PATH environment variable to point to a malicious "grep" program, which is executed from chcod.

Untrusted execution path vulnerability in invscout in IBM AIX 5.1.0, 5.2.0, and 5.3.0 allows local users to gain privileges by modifying the PATH environment variable to point to a malicious "uname" program, which is executed from lsvpd after lsvpd h...

Buffer overflow in paginit in AIX 5.1 through 5.3 allows local users to execute arbitrary code via a long username.

Buffer overflow in GNU make for IBM AIX 4.3.3, when installed setgid, allows local users to gain privileges via a long CC argument.

rexecd for AIX 4.3.3 does not properly use a local copy of the pwd structure when calling getpwnam, which may cause the structure to be overwritten by the authenticate function and assign privileges to the wrong user.

The Inventory Scout daemon (invscoutd) 1.3.0.0 and 2.0.2 for AIX 4.3.3 and 5.1 allows local users to gain privileges via a symlink attack on a command line argument (log file). NOTE: this might be related to CVE-2006-5002.

Untrusted execution path vulnerability in the diag commands (1) lsmcode, (2) diag_exec, (3) invscout, and (4) invscoutd in AIX 5.1 through 5.3 allows local users to execute arbitrary programs by modifying the DIAGNOSTICS environment variable to point...

AIX 4.3.3 through AIX 5.1, when direct remote login is disabled, displays a different message if the password is correct, which allows remote attackers to guess the password via brute force methods.

The ctstrtcasd program in RSCT 2.3.0.0 and earlier on IBM AIX 5.2 and 5.3 does not properly drop privileges before executing the -f option, which allows local users to modify or create arbitrary files.

Multiple buffer overflows in LVM for AIX 5.1 and 5.2 allow local users to gain privileges via the (1) putlvcb or (2) getlvcb commands.
