CVSS v3.1 |
| The binary compatibility mode for FreeBSD 4.x and 5.x does not properly handle certain Linux system calls, which could allow local users to access kernel memory to gain privileges or cause a system panic. |
| 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. |
| FreeBSD 5.x, 4.x, and 3.x allows local users to cause a denial of service by executing a program with a malformed ELF image header. |
| The setsockopt call in the KAME Project IPv6 implementation, as used in FreeBSD 5.2, does not properly handle certain IPv6 socket options, which could allow attackers to read kernel memory and cause a system panic. |
| FreeBSD allows local users to conduct a denial of service by creating a hard link from a device special file to a file on an NFS file system. |
| Integer overflow vulnerability in the i386_set_ldt call in FreeBSD 5.5, and possibly earlier versions down to 5.2, allows local users to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via unspecified vectors, a different vulnerability than CVE-2006-4178. |
| FreeBSD 5.1 and earlier, and Mac OS X before 10.3.4, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (resource exhaustion of memory buffers and system crash) via a large number of out-of-sequence TCP packets, which prevents the operating system from creating new connections. |
| Buffer overflow in the sppp driver in FreeBSD 4.11 through 6.1, NetBSD 2.0 through 4.0 beta before 20060823, and OpenBSD 3.8 and 3.9 before 20060902 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (panic), obtain sensitive information, and possibly execute arbitrary code via crafted Link Control Protocol (LCP) packets with an option length that exceeds the overall length, which triggers the overflow in (1) pppoe and (2) ippp. NOTE: this issue was originally incorrectly reported for the ppp driver. |
| libedit searches for the .editrc file in the current directory instead of the user's home directory, which may allow local users to execute arbitrary commands by installing a modified .editrc in another directory. |
| The jail_attach system call in FreeBSD 5.1 and 5.2 changes the directory of a calling process even if the process doesn't have permission to change directory, which allows local users to gain read/write privileges to files and directories within another jail. |
| The jail system call in FreeBSD 4.x before 4.10-RELEASE does not verify that an attempt to manipulate routing tables originated from a non-jailed process, which could allow local users to modify the routing table. |
| BitchX IRC client does not properly cleanse an untrusted format string, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via an invite to a channel whose name includes special formatting characters. |
| Certain "programming errors" in the msync system call for FreeBSD 5.2.1 and earlier, and 4.10 and earlier, do not properly handle the MS_INVALIDATE operation, which leads to cache consistency problems that allow a local user to prevent certain changes to files from being committed to disk. |
| Local users can start Sendmail in daemon mode and gain root privileges. |
| The shmat system call in the System V Shared Memory interface for FreeBSD 5.2 and earlier, NetBSD 1.3 and earlier, and OpenBSD 2.6 and earlier, does not properly decrement a shared memory segment's reference count when the vm_map_find function fails, which could allow local users to gain read or write access to a portion of kernel memory and gain privileges. |
| KDE kppp allows local users to create a directory in an arbitrary location via the HOME environmental variable. |
| The rwho/rwhod service is running, which exposes machine status and user information. |
| mksnap_ffs in FreeBSD 5.1 and 5.2 only sets the snapshot flag when creating a snapshot for a file system, which causes default values for other flags to be used, possibly disabling security-critical settings and allowing a local user to bypass intended access restrictions. |
| Multiple ethernet Network Interface Card (NIC) device drivers do not pad frames with null bytes, which allows remote attackers to obtain information from previous packets or kernel memory by using malformed packets, as demonstrated by Etherleak. |
| Buffer overflow in Canna input system allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via an SR_INIT command with a long user name or group name. |
