Sun ≫ Solaris

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.

rpc.walld (wall daemon) for Solaris 2.6 through 9 allows local users to send messages to logged on users that appear to come from arbitrary user IDs by closing stderr before executing wall, then supplying a spoofed from header.

pkgadd in Sun Solaris 2.5.1 through 8 installs files setuid/setgid root if the pkgmap file contains a "?" (question mark) in the (1) mode, (2) owner, or (3) group fields, which allows attackers to elevate privileges.

Buffer overflow in Volume Manager daemon (vold) of Sun Solaris 2.5.1 through 8 allows local users to execute arbitrary code via unknown attack vectors.

Buffer overflow in rcp in Solaris 9.0 allows local users to execute arbitrary code via a long command line argument.

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 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.

Unknown vulnerability in the AUTH_DES authentication for RPC in Solaris 2.5.1, 2.6, and 7, SGI IRIX 6.5 to 6.5.19f, and possibly other platforms, allows remote attackers to gain privileges.

Directory traversal vulnerability in priocntl system call in Solaris does allows local users to execute arbitrary code via ".." sequences in the pc_clname field of a pcinfo_t structure, which cause priocntl to load a malicious kernel module.

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.
