#buffer_overflow
processCropSelections in tools/tiffcrop.c in LibTIFF through 4.5.0 has a heap-based buffer overflow (e.g., "WRITE of size 307203") via a crafted TIFF image.
Heap-based Buffer Overflow in GitHub repository vim/vim prior to 9.0.1225.
** UNSUPPORTED WHEN ASSIGNED ** dtprintinfo in Common Desktop Environment 1.6 has a bug in the parser of lpstat (an invoked external command) during listing of the names of available printers. This allows low-privileged local users to inject arbitrary printer names via the $HOME/.printers file. This injection allows those users to manipulate the control flow and disclose memory contents on Solaris 10 systems. NOTE: This vulnerability only affects products that are no longer supported by the maintainer.
** UNSUPPORTED WHEN ASSIGNED ** A stack-based buffer overflow in ParseColors in libXm in Common Desktop Environment 1.6 can be exploited by local low-privileged users via the dtprintinfo setuid binary to escalate their privileges to root on Solaris 10 systems. NOTE: This vulnerability only affects products that are no longer supported by the maintainer.
Buffer overflow vulnerability in function avc_parse_slice in file media_tools/av_parsers.c. GPAC version 2.3-DEV-rev1-g4669ba229-master.
Solaris 10 CDE local privilege escalation exploit that achieves root by injecting a fake printer via lpstat and uses a buffer overflow in libXM ParseColors().
Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered across Common Desktop Environment version 1.6, Motif version 2.1, and X.Org libXpm versions prior to 3.5.15 on Oracle Solaris 10 that can be chained together to achieve root.
Ubuntu Security Notice 5814-1 - Kyle Zeng discovered that the sysctl implementation in the Linux kernel contained a stack-based buffer overflow. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or execute arbitrary code. Tamás Koczka discovered that the Bluetooth L2CAP handshake implementation in the Linux kernel contained multiple use-after-free vulnerabilities. A physically proximate attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code.
NetChess version 2.1 suffers from a buffer overflow vulnerability.
Ubuntu Security Notice 5813-1 - It was discovered that the NFSD implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly handle some RPC messages, leading to a buffer overflow. A remote attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code. Tamás Koczka discovered that the Bluetooth L2CAP handshake implementation in the Linux kernel contained multiple use-after-free vulnerabilities. A physically proximate attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code.
