Buffer overflows in BSD-based FTP servers allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via a long pattern string containing a {} sequence, as seen in (1) g_opendir, (2) g_lstat, (3) g_stat, and (4) the glob0 buffer as used in the glob functions glob2 and glob3.

The presence of the Distributed GL Daemon (dgld) service on port 5232 on SGI IRIX systems allows remote attackers to identify the target host as an SGI system.

Some functions that implement the locale subsystem on Unix do not properly cleanse user-injected format strings, which allows local attackers to execute arbitrary commands via functions such as gettext and catopen.

Buffer overflow in lpstat in IRIX 6.2 and 6.3 allows local users to gain root privileges via a long -n option.

The truncate function in IRIX 6.x does not properly check for privileges when the file is in the xfs file system, which allows local users to delete the contents of arbitrary files.

Buffer overflow in dmplay in IRIX 6.2 and 6.3 allows local users to gain root privileges via a long command line option.

Buffer overflow in gr_osview in IRIX 6.2 and 6.3 allows local users to gain privileges via a long -D option.

Buffer overflow in IRIX libgl.so library allows local users to gain root privileges via a long HOME variable to programs such as (1) gmemusage and (2) gr_osview.

Telnetd telnet server in IRIX 5.2 through 6.1 does not properly cleans user-injected format strings, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via a long RLD variable in the IAC-SB-TELOPT_ENVIRON request.

Buffer overflow in mailx mail command (aka Mail) on Linux systems allows local users to gain privileges via a long -c (carbon copy) parameter.

SGI MIPSPro compilers C, C++, F77 and F90 generate temporary files in /tmp with predictable file names, which could allow local users to insert malicious contents into these files as they are being compiled by another user.

IRIX crontab creates temporary files with predictable file names and with the umask of the user, which could allow local users to modify another user's crontab file as it is being edited.

Vulnerability in cvconnect in SGI IRIX WorkShop allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files.

The default installation of IRIX Performance Copilot allows remote attackers to access sensitive system information via the pmcd daemon.

Vulnerability in SGI IRIX objectserver daemon allows remote attackers to create user accounts.

SGI InfoSearch CGI program infosrch.cgi allows remote attackers to execute commands via shell metacharacters.

The line printer daemon (lpd) in the lpr package in multiple Linux operating systems allows local users to gain root privileges by causing sendmail to execute with arbitrary command line arguments, as demonstrated using the -C option to specify a configuration file.

The line printer daemon (lpd) in the lpr package in multiple Linux operating systems authenticates by comparing the reverse-resolved hostname of the local machine to the hostname of the print server as returned by gethostname, which allows remote attackers to bypass intended access controls by modifying the DNS for the attacking IP.

lpr on SunOS 4.1.1, BSD 4.3, A/UX 2.0.1, and other BSD-based operating systems allows local users to create or overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack that is triggered after invoking lpr 1000 times.

IRIX soundplayer program allows local users to gain privileges by including shell metacharacters in a .wav file, which is executed via the midikeys program.

Quake 1 server responds to an initial UDP game connection request with a large amount of traffic, which allows remote attackers to use the server as an amplifier in a "Smurf" style attack on another host, by spoofing the connection request.

Buffer overflow in uum program for Canna input system allows local users to gain root privileges.

Buffer overflow in canuum program for Canna input system allows local users to gain root privileges.

The default configuration of the Array Services daemon (arrayd) disables authentication, allowing remote users to gain root privileges.

nsd in IRIX 6.5 through 6.5.2 exports a virtual filesystem on a UDP port, which allows remote attackers to view files and cause a possible denial of service by mounting the nsd virtual file system.

SGI IRIX midikeys program allows local users to modify arbitrary files via a text editor.

A buffer overflow in the SGI X server allows local users to gain root access through the X server font path.

Versions of rpcbind including Linux, IRIX, and Wietse Venema's rpcbind allow a remote attacker to insert and delete entries by spoofing a source address.

Routed allows attackers to append data to files.

Vulnerability in On-Line Customer Registration software for IRIX 6.2 through 6.4 allows local users to gain root privileges.

The at program in IRIX 6.2 and NetBSD 1.3.2 and earlier allows local users to read portions of arbitrary files by submitting the file to at with the -f argument, which generates error messages that at sends to the user via e-mail.

disk_bandwidth on SGI IRIX 6.4 S2MP for Origin/Onyx2 allows local users to gain root access using relative pathnames.

ioconfig on SGI IRIX 6.4 S2MP for Origin/Onyx2 allows local users to gain root access using relative pathnames.

SGI mediad program allows local users to gain root access.

Vulnerability in (1) diskalign and (2) diskperf in IRIX 6.4 patches 2291 and 2848 allow a local user to create root-owned files leading to a root compromise.
