The linux 2.4 kernel before 2.4.19 assumes that the fninit instruction clears all registers, which could lead to an information leak on processors that do not clear all relevant SSE registers.

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.

openwebmail_init in Open WebMail 1.81 and earlier allows local users to execute arbitrary code via .. (dot dot) sequences in a login name, such as the name provided in the sessionid parameter for openwebmail-abook.pl, which is used to find a configuration file that specifies additional code to be executed.

Multiple integer overflows in Common Unix Printing System (CUPS) 1.1.14 through 1.1.17 allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via (1) the CUPSd HTTP interface, as demonstrated by vanilla-coke, and (2) the image handling code in CUPS filters, as demonstrated by mksun.

Common Unix Printing System (CUPS) 1.1.14 through 1.1.17 does not properly check the return values of various file and socket operations, which could allow a remote attacker to cause a denial of service (resource exhaustion) by causing file descriptors to be assigned and not released, as demonstrated by fanta.

filters/image-gif.c in Common Unix Printing System (CUPS) 1.1.14 through 1.1.17 does not properly check for zero-length GIF images, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via modified chunk headers, as demonstrated by nogif.

jobs.c in Common Unix Printing System (CUPS) 1.1.14 through 1.1.17 does not properly use the strncat function call when processing the options string, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a buffer overflow attack.

Common Unix Printing System (CUPS) 1.1.14 through 1.1.17 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code by causing negative arguments to be fed into memcpy() calls via HTTP requests with (1) a negative Content-Length value or (2) a negative length in a chunked transfer encoding.

Common Unix Printing System (CUPS) 1.1.14 through 1.1.17 allows remote attackers to add printers without authentication via a certain UDP packet, which can then be used to perform unauthorized activities such as stealing the local root certificate for the administration server via a "need authorization" page, as demonstrated by new-coke.

Common Unix Printing System (CUPS) 1.1.14 through 1.1.17 allows local users with lp privileges to create or overwrite arbitrary files via file race conditions, as demonstrated by ice-cream.

Portable Network Graphics (PNG) library libpng 1.2.5 and earlier does not correctly calculate offsets, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a buffer overflow attack on the row buffers.

Buffer overflow in the Windows Shell function in Microsoft Windows XP allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via an .MP3 or .WMA audio file with a corrupt custom attribute, aka "Unchecked Buffer in Windows Shell Could Enable System Compromise."

Multiple buffer overflows in Winamp 3.0, when displaying an MP3 in the Media Library window, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via an MP3 file containing a long (1) Artist or (2) Album ID3v2 tag.

Buffer overflow in Winamp 2.81 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long Artist ID3v2 tag in an MP3 file.

Buffer overflow in Melange Chat System 1.10 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (chat server crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via the msgText buffer in the chat_InterpretData function, as demonstrated via a long Nick (nickname) request.

Macromedia Flash Player before 6.0.65.0 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via certain malformed data headers in Shockwave Flash file format (SWF) files, a different issue than CAN-2002-0846.

Format string vulnerability in daemon.c for Exim 4.x through 4.10, and 3.x through 3.36, allows exim administrative users to execute arbitrary code by modifying the pid_file_path value.

Linux kernel 2.2.x allows local users to cause a denial of service (crash) by using the mmap() function with a PROT_READ parameter to access non-readable memory pages through the /proc/pid/mem interface.

vim 6.0 and 6.1, and possibly other versions, allows attackers to execute arbitrary commands using the libcall feature in modelines, which are not sandboxed but may be executed when vim is used to edit a malicious file, as demonstrated using mutt.

libmysqlclient client library in MySQL 3.x to 3.23.54, and 4.x to 4.0.6, does not properly verify length fields for certain responses in the (1) read_rows or (2) read_one_row routines, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary code.

The COM_CHANGE_USER command in MySQL 3.x before 3.23.54, and 4.x to 4.0.6, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long response.

The COM_CHANGE_USER command in MySQL 3.x before 3.23.54, and 4.x before 4.0.6, allows remote attackers to gain privileges via a brute force attack using a one-character password, which causes MySQL to only compare the provided password against the first character of the real password.

Signed integer vulnerability in the COM_TABLE_DUMP package for MySQL 3.23.x before 3.23.54 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash or hang) in mysqld by causing large negative integers to be provided to a memcpy call.

Heap-based buffer overflow in Fetchmail 6.1.3 and earlier does not account for the "@" character when determining buffer lengths for local addresses, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a header with a large number of local addresses.

Buffer overflow in the get_origin function in traceroute-nanog allows attackers to execute arbitrary code via long WHOIS responses.
