HP-UX allows the NLSPATH to be set for setuid root programs, which use catopen(3C) and may be executed by other local users. This could result in privilege escalation as an attacker could specify an arbitrary path for a message catalogue, which will be opened with elevated privileges.
A vulnerability in Internet Explorer allows cached Internet content to be rendered in the My Computer zone. By including an extra slash when referencing cached content from within a web page, an attacker can exploit this issue. This can lead to the execution of arbitrary code on the client system.
The exploit causes a denial of service by sending an overly long GET request to the TFTP server.
Avaya Argent Office is prone to a denial of service condition when handling malformed DNS packets. The problem occurs when a DNS packet with no payload is handled, causing the device to reboot.
This exploit allows remote code execution on the CCleague Pro Sports CMS version 1.0.1RC1. It takes advantage of the register_globals=On and magic quotes=off configurations.
This exploit takes advantage of a vulnerability in BRS WebWeaver, allowing a remote attacker to crash or hang the software by sending a request with a large string value for the User-Agent parameter. The exploit sends a GET request with a specially crafted User-Agent header, causing the software to crash or hang.
The tipsoftheday.php file is vulnerable to stored XSS and SQL injection vulnerabilities. The stored XSS vulnerability can be exploited by injecting malicious code into the 'newtip' parameter of the '/dir/misc.php?tips=newtip' URL. The SQL injection vulnerability can be exploited by injecting SQL code into the 'tip' parameter of the '/bladir/admin/index.php?module=config-tipsoftheday&action=edittip' URL.
A vulnerability has been reported in SimpleWebServer that may allow a remote attacker to cause a denial of service condition or execute arbitrary code on vulnerable host. The issue is reported to exist due to a lack of bounds checking by software, leading to a buffer overflow condition. The problem is reported to exist due to the HTTP referer header. It has been reported that an attacker may be able to crash the server by sending 700 bytes of data through the HTTP referer header and overwrite the return address on the stack with 704 bytes.Successful exploitation of this issue may allow an attacker to cause a denial of service condition or execute arbitrary code in the context of the web server in order to gain unauthorized access to a vulnerable system.
Yahoo! Messenger is prone to a remotely exploitable buffer overrun vulnerability. An attacker may trigger this condition by initiating a malformed 'sendfile' request, which the victim user must then accept. This will reportedly result in an access violation error, which is likely due to memory corruption. An attacker may theoretically exploit this condition to execute arbitrary code on a client system. This condition can be exploited via a malicious 'sendfile' link.
The issue allows unauthorized access to local resources in Microsoft Internet Explorer. By adding an additional slash when specifying a resource via the file:// or res:// protocols, the restrictions imposed by Internet Explorer version 6 SP1 can be bypassed. This can potentially aid in the exploitation of other vulnerabilities, allowing an attacker to create files on a client system and reference them using these protocols. The exact cause of the issue is currently under investigation.
