CVE-2004-0814: Undefined Security Weakness

Multiple race conditions in the terminal layer in Linux 2.4.x, and 2.6.x before 2.6.9, allow 1 local users to obtain portions of kernel data via a TIOCSETD ioctl call to a terminal interface that is being accessed by another thread, or 2 remote attackers to cause a denial of service panic by...

CAN-2004-0814: Linux terminal layer races

Linux 2.6.9 fixes a set of race conditions in the Linux terminal subsystem which are believed to go back to 2.2 kernels if not earlier. The race shows up problematically in two places. Firstly a user can cause crashes and other undefined behaviour by issuing a TIOCSETLD ioctl on a terminal...

Timo Sirainen reported a vulnerability in screen, a terminal multiplexor with VT100/ANSI terminal emulation, that can lead an attacker to gain group utmp privileges. %NASLMINLEVEL 70300 C Tenable Network Security, Inc. The descriptive text and package checks in this plugin were extracted from...

Debian DSA-472-1 : fte - several vulnerabilities

Steve Kemp and Jaguar discovered a number of buffer overflow vulnerabilities in vfte, a version of the fte editor which runs on the Linux console, found in the package fte-console. This program is setuid root in order to perform certain types of low-level operations on the console. Due to these...

Debian DSA-496-1 : eterm - missing input sanitising

H.D. Moore discovered several terminal emulator security issues. One of them covers escape codes that are interpreted by the terminal emulator. This could be exploited by an attacker to insert malicious commands hidden for the user, who has to hit enter to continue, which would also execute the...

CVE-2003-0020

Apache does not filter terminal escape sequences from its error logs, which could make it easier for attackers to insert those sequences into terminal emulators containing vulnerabilities related to escape sequences...

CVE-2003-0067

The aterm terminal emulator 0.42 allows attackers to modify the window title via a certain character escape sequence and then insert it back to the command line in the user's terminal, e.g. when the user views a file containing the malicious sequence, which could allow the attacker to execute...

CVE-2003-0077

The hanterm hanterm-xf terminal emulator 2.0.5 and earlier, and possibly later versions, allows attackers to modify the window title via a certain character escape sequence and then insert it back to the command line in the user's terminal, e.g. when the user views a file containing the malicious...

CVE-2003-0067

CVE-2003-0067 affects the aterm terminal emulator (version 0.42). The vulnerability stems from a window-title escape sequence feature that can be manipulated to place a crafted title on the command line, enabling an attacker to inject and execute arbitrary commands when the user views a file cont...

CVE-2003-0077

The CVE concerns hanterm/hanterm-xf terminal emulators (2.0.5 and earlier). Affected component is the escape sequence that sets the window title; an attacker could craft a sequence that places a command into the title and, when the user views the file containing it, that command could be executed...

CVE-2003-0079

The CVE-2003-0079 entry concerns hanterm-xf (DEC UDK processing) in the HANTERM terminal emulator prior to version 2.0.5. Multiple connected sources confirm a denial-of-service condition caused by malformed DEC UDK escape sequences that can drive the HANTERM process into a tight loop, consuming C...

CVE-2003-0065

CVE-2003-0065 concerns the uxterm terminal emulator window-title reporting vulnerability. A malicious escape sequence can modify the terminal window title and, when echoed back to the command line, enable attacker-controlled input to be executed by the user’s shell.
