Stack-based buffer overflows in the (1) xmlvarcharfromfile, (2) xmlclobfromfile, (3) xmlfilefromvarchar, and (4) xmlfilefromclob function calls in IBM DB2 8.1 allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a 94-byte second argument, which causes the return address to be overwritten with a poi...

CVE-2005-4871

Certain XML functions in IBM DB2 8.1 run with the privileges of DB2 instead of the logged-in user, which allows remote attackers to create or overwrite files via (1) XMLFileFromVarchar or (2) XMLFileFromClob, or read files via (3) XMLVarcharFromFile or (4) XMLClobFromFile.

CVE-2007-2582

Multiple buffer overflows in the DB2 JDBC Applet Server (DB2JDS) service in IBM DB2 9.x and earlier allow remote attackers to (1) execute arbitrary code via a crafted packet to the DB2JDS service on tcp/6789; and cause a denial of service via (2) an invalid LANG parameter or (2) a long packet that ...

CVE-2007-5652

IBM DB2 UDB 9.1 before Fixpak 4 does not properly manage storage of a list containing authentication information, which might allow attackers to cause a denial of service (instance crash) or trigger memory corruption.
