CVSS v3.1 |
| The sendfile system call in FreeBSD 4.8 through 4.11 and 5 through 5.4 can transfer portions of kernel memory if a file is truncated while it is being sent, which could allow remote attackers to obtain sensitive information. |
| Hyper-Threading technology, as used in FreeBSD and other operating systems that are run on Intel Pentium and other processors, allows local users to use a malicious thread to create covert channels, monitor the execution of other threads, and obtain sensitive information such as cryptographic keys, via a timing attack on memory cache misses. |
| Multiple buffer overflows in eject on FreeBSD and possibly other OSes allows local users to gain root privileges. |
| FreeBSD seyon allows users to gain privileges via a modified PATH variable for finding the xterm and seyon-emu commands. |
| Buffer overflows in brouted in FreeBSD and possibly other OSes allows local users to gain root privileges via long command line arguments. |
| Format string vulnerability in wrapper.c in CVS 1.12.x through 1.12.8, and 1.11.x through 1.11.16 allows remote attackers with CVSROOT commit access to cause a denial of service (application crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via format string specifiers in a wrapper line. |
| Buffer overflow in bootpd on OpenBSD, FreeBSD, and Linux systems via a malformed header type. |
| Kerberos 5 su (k5su) in FreeBSD 4.4 and earlier relies on the getlogin system call to determine if the user running k5su is root, which could allow a root-initiated process to regain its privileges after it has dropped them. |
| The cmdline pseudofiles in (1) procfs on FreeBSD 4.8 through 5.3, and (2) linprocfs on FreeBSD 5.x through 5.3, do not properly validate a process argument vector, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (panic) or read portions of kernel memory. NOTE: this candidate might be SPLIT into 2 separate items in the future. |
| Kerberos 5 su (k5su) in FreeBSD 4.5 and earlier does not verify that a user is a member of the wheel group before granting superuser privileges, which could allow unauthorized users to execute commands as root. |
| The accept_filter mechanism in FreeBSD 4 through 4.5 does not properly remove entries from the incomplete listen queue when adding a syncache, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (network service availability) via a large number of connection attempts, which fills the queue. |
| The access permissions for a UNIX domain socket are ignored in Solaris 2.x and SunOS 4.x, and other BSD-based operating systems before 4.4, which could allow local users to connect to the socket and possibly disrupt or control the operations of the program using that socket. |
| The rc system startup script for FreeBSD 4 through 4.5 allows local users to delete arbitrary files via a symlink attack on X Windows lock files. |
| Integer overflow in fetch on FreeBSD 4.1 through 5.3 allows remote malicious servers to execute arbitrary code via certain HTTP headers in an HTTP response, which lead to a buffer overflow. |
| BSD pppd allows local users to change the permissions of arbitrary files via a symlink attack on a file that is specified as a tty device. |
| runtar in the Amanda backup system used in various UNIX operating systems executes tar with root privileges, which allows a user to overwrite or read arbitrary files by providing the target files to runtar. |
| Integer overflow in the Berkeley Fast File System (FFS) in FreeBSD 4.6.1 RELEASE-p4 and earlier allows local users to access arbitrary file contents within FFS to gain privileges by creating a file that is larger than allowed by the virtual memory system. |
| libutil in OpenSSH on FreeBSD 4.4 and earlier does not drop privileges before verifying the capabilities for reading the copyright and welcome files, which allows local users to bypass the capabilities checks and read arbitrary files by specifying alternate copyright or welcome files. |
| The kqueue mechanism in FreeBSD 4.3 through 4.6 STABLE allows local users to cause a denial of service (kernel panic) via a pipe call in which one end is terminated and an EVFILT_WRITE filter is registered for the other end. |
| Buffer overflow in the Linux binary compatibility module in FreeBSD 3.x through 5.x allows local users to gain root privileges via long filenames in the linux shadow file system. |
