DEBIAN-CVE-2008-4640

The DoCommand function in jhead.c in Matthias Wandel jhead 2.84 and earlier allows local users to delete arbitrary files via vectors involving a modified input filename in which 1 a final "z" character is replaced by a "t" character or 2 a final "t" character is replaced by a "z" character...

Buffer overflow

Multiple buffer overflows in bos.rte.control in IBM AIX 5.2 and 5.3 allow local users to gain privileges via unspecified vectors related to the 1 swap, 2 swapoff, and 3 swapon programs...

MOAB-11-01-2007: Apple DMG UFS byte_swap_sbin() Integer Overflow Vulnerability

Summary The byteswapsbin function, one of the UFS byte swapping routines this code isn't present in FreeBSD and it's Mac OS X XNU-specific; used for compatibility of filesystem streams between little and big-endian systems is affected by a integer overflow vulnerability, leading to an exploitable...

security flaw

scanf.c in PHP 5.1.4 and earlier, and 4.4.3 and earlier, allows context-dependent attackers to execute arbitrary code via a sscanf PHP function call that performs argument swapping, which increments an index past the end of an array and triggers a buffer over-read...

Insecure pty permissions in OS X < 10.4

Hi all. Mac OS X 10.3.x and earlier doesn't provide any mechanism for non-setuid-root programs to change permissions on ptys. Hence xterms, screen sessions, and Terminal.app windows with explicitly specified commands are vulnerable to tty sniffing. Note that using Terminal.app's standard terminal...
