Security Vulnerabilities, CVEs, Published In September 2001

The default configuration of Lotus Domino server 5.0.8 includes system information (version, operating system, and build date) in the HTTP headers of replies, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information.

Buffer overflow in ssinc.dll in IIS 5.0 and 4.0 allows local users to gain system privileges via a Server-Side Includes (SSI) directive for a long filename, which triggers the overflow when the directory name is added, aka the "SSI privilege elevation" vulnerability.

IIS 5.0 uses relative paths to find system files that will run in-process, which allows local users to gain privileges via a Trojan horse file, aka the "System file listing privilege elevation" vulnerability.

Vulnerability in IIS 5.0 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (restart) via a long, invalid WebDAV request.

Vulnerabilities in RPC servers in (1) Microsoft Exchange Server 2000 and earlier, (2) Microsoft SQL Server 2000 and earlier, (3) Windows NT 4.0, and (4) Windows 2000 allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service via malformed inputs.

Buffer overflow in Microsoft Windows Media Player 7.1 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via a malformed Windows Media Station (.NSC) file.

Memory leak in NNTP service in Windows NT 4.0 and Windows 2000 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory exhaustion) via a large number of malformed posts.

Memory leak in H.323 Gatekeeper Service in Microsoft Internet Security and Acceleration (ISA) Server 2000 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (resource exhaustion) via a large amount of malformed H.323 data.

Memory leak in the proxy service in Microsoft Internet Security and Acceleration (ISA) Server 2000 allows local attackers to cause a denial of service (resource exhaustion).

ovactiond in HP OpenView Network Node Manager (NNM) 6.1 and Tivoli Netview 5.x and 6.x allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via shell metacharacters in a certain SNMP trap message.

Buffer overflows in Raytheon SilentRunner allow remote attackers to (1) cause a denial of service in the collector (cle.exe) component of SilentRunner 2.0 via traffic containing long passwords, or (2) execute arbitrary commands via long HTTP queries in the Knowledge Browser component in SilentRunner 2.0 and 2.0.1. NOTE: It is highly likely that this candidate will be split into multiple candidates.

Buffer overflow in man program in various distributions of Linux allows local user to execute arbitrary code as group man via a long -S option.

Directory traversal vulnerability in IncrediMail version 1400185 and earlier allows local users to overwrite files on the local hard drive by appending .. (dot dot) sequences to filenames listed in the content.ini file.

Internet Explorer 5.5 does not display the Class ID (CLSID) when it is at the end of the file name, which could allow attackers to trick the user into executing dangerous programs by making it appear that the document is of a safe file type.

Maxum Rumpus FTP Server 1.3.3 and 2.0.3 dev 3 stores passwords in plaintext in the "Rumpus User Database" file in the prefs folder, which could allow attackers to gain privileges on the server.

Symantec/AXENT NetProwler 3.5.x contains several default passwords, which could allow remote attackers to (1) access to the management tier via the "admin" password, or (2) connect to a MySQL ODBC from the management tier using a blank password.

Maxum Rumpus FTP Server 1.3.3 and 2.0.3 dev 3 allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (hang) by creating a directory name of a specific length.

Directory traversal vulnerability in PHProjekt 2.1 and earlier allows a remote attacker to conduct unauthorized activities via a dot dot (..) attack on the file module.

Personal Web Sharing 1.5.5 allows a remote attacker to cause a denial of service via a long HTTP request.

Cisco devices IOS 12.0 and earlier allow a remote attacker to cause a crash, or bad route updates, via malformed BGP updates with unrecognized transitive attribute.

Sendmail 8.10.0 through 8.11.5, and 8.12.0 beta, allows local users to modify process memory and possibly gain privileges via a large value in the 'category' part of debugger (-d) command line arguments, which is interpreted as a negative number.

Cross-site scripting (CSS) vulnerability in Microsoft Internet Security and Acceleration (ISA) Server 2000 allows remote attackers to cause other clients to execute certain script or read cookies via malicious script in an invalid URL that is not properly quoted in an error message.

Buffer overflow in IrDA driver providing infrared data exchange on Windows 2000 allows attackers who are physically close to the machine to cause a denial of service (reboot) via a malformed IrDA packet.

Buffer overflow in line printer daemon (rlpdaemon) in HP-UX 10.01 through 11.11 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands.

Directory traversal vulnerability in RobTex Viking Web server before 1.07-381 allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files via a hexadecimal encoded dot-dot attack (eg. http://www.server.com/%2e%2e/%2e%2e) in an HTTP URL request.
