CVE Vulnerability Catalog

The BuildDisk program on NeXT systems before version 2.0 does not prompt users for the root password, allowing local users to gain root privileges.

Vulnerability in NeXT 1.0a and 1.0 allows local users to gain privileges via a combination of the npd program and weak directory permissions.

Vulnerability in the restore0.9 installation script in NeXT 1.0a and 1.0 allows local users to gain root privileges.

Buffer overflow in FreeBSD libmytinfo library allows local users to execute commands via a long TERMCAP environmental variable.

Certain NFS servers allow users to use mknod to gain privileges by creating a writable kmem device and setting the UID to 0.

Vulnerability in SMI Sendmail 4.0 and earlier, on SunOS up to 4.0.3, allows remote attackers to access user bin.

Vulnerability in rcp on SunOS 4.0.x allows remote attackers from trusted hosts to execute arbitrary commands as root, possibly related to the configuration of the nobody user.

Buffer overflow in passwd in BSD based operating systems 4.3 and earlier allows local users to gain root privileges by specifying a long shell or GECOS field.

The CWD ~root command in the ftpd server allows root access to the system.

The debug command in Sendmail is enabled, allowing attackers to execute commands as root.

A vulnerability in the virtio-gpu module of the Linux kernel involves an incorrect overflow check when allocating 2D images. This flaw can lead to a buffer overflow, potentially enabling privilege escalation or system crash.

Nodemailer's address parser parses comma-separated addresses in quadratic time (O(n²)) in the number of addresses. A single crafted address string (e.g., To, Cc, Bcc, From, Reply-To) can cause significant slowdown.

A rogue MySQL server (or a man-in-the-middle) can force mysql2 to send credentials in plaintext by requesting an auth switch to mysql_clear_password. The driver complies without verifying that TLS is active.

Several vulnerabilities (two rated critical under CVSSv3) have been discovered and fixed in the upstream libheif dependency. They can lead to remote code execution (RCE) on glibc-based Linux under certain conditions.

GNU libidn2 before version 2.2.0 fails to perform the roundtrip checks specified in RFC3490 Section 4.2 when converting A-labels to U-labels, allowing domain impersonation in some circumstances. An attacker can create a malicious domain that matches a target domain except for certain characters.

A vulnerability in Python 3.9.x before 3.9.16 and 3.10.x before 3.10.9 on Linux allows local privilege escalation in a non-default configuration. The multiprocessing library with the forkserver start method permits pickle deserialization from any user on the same local network of the machine.

A critical vulnerability was found in SQLite3 up to version 3.43.0 in the sessionReadRecord function of ext/session/sqlite3session.c. Manipulation leads to a heap-based buffer overflow, potentially allowing remote code execution.

A divide-by-zero error was discovered in py-lmdb 0.97 in the mdb_env_open2 function when mdb_env_read_header obtains a zero value for a certain size field. This issue can be triggered by supplying a crafted data.mdb file.

A vulnerability was found in systemd where a service using the DynamicUser property can create a SUID/SGID binary that remains executable with the transient service UID/GID even after the service terminates. A local attacker could exploit this to access resources owned by a potentially different UID/GID.

The filepath package in Go does not recognize paths with a \??\ prefix as special. On Windows, a path starting with \??\ is equivalent to a path starting with \\?\ and can be used to access arbitrary system locations.
