Freebsd : Security Vulnerabilities, CVEs, CVSS score >= 9

Buffer overflow of rlogin program using TERM environmental variable.

Buffer overflow in FreeBSD lpd through long DNS hostnames.

FreeBSD mmap function allows users to modify append-only or immutable files.

Buffer overflow in Berkeley automounter daemon (amd) logging facility provided in the Linux am-utils package and others.

Buffer overflow in bootpd on OpenBSD, FreeBSD, and Linux systems via a malformed header type.

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.

Buffer overflows in BSD-based FTP servers allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via a long pattern string containing a {} sequence, as seen in (1) g_opendir, (2) g_lstat, (3) g_stat, and (4) the glob0 buffer as used in the glob functions glob2 and glob3.

time server daemon timed allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via malformed packets.

Buffer overflow in BSD-based telnetd telnet daemon on various operating systems allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via a set of options including AYT (Are You There), which is not properly handled by the telrcv function.

ipfw in FreeBSD does not properly handle the use of "me" in its rules when point to point interfaces are used, which causes ipfw to allow connections from arbitrary remote hosts.

TCP Wrappers (tcp_wrappers) in FreeBSD 4.1.1 through 4.3 with the PARANOID ACL option enabled does not properly check the result of a reverse DNS lookup, which could allow remote attackers to bypass intended access restrictions via DNS spoofing.

Integer overflow in xdr_array function in RPC servers for operating systems that use libc, glibc, or other code based on SunRPC including dietlibc, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by passing a large number of arguments to xdr_array through RPC services such as rpc.cmsd and dmispd.

Off-by-one error in the fb_realpath() function, as derived from the realpath function in BSD, may allow attackers to execute arbitrary code, as demonstrated in wu-ftpd 2.5.0 through 2.6.2 via commands that cause pathnames of length MAXPATHLEN+1 to trigger a buffer overflow, including (1) STOR, (2) RETR, (3) APPE, (4) DELE, (5) MKD, (6) RMD, (7) STOU, or (8) RNTO.

The prescan function in Sendmail 8.12.9 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via buffer overflow attacks, as demonstrated using the parseaddr function in parseaddr.c.

The TCP MSS (maximum segment size) functionality in netinet allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (resource exhaustion) via (1) a low MTU, which causes a large number of small packets to be produced, or (2) via a large number of packets with a small TCP payload, which cause a large number of calls to the resource-intensive sowakeup function.

Integer overflow in fetch on FreeBSD 4.1 through 5.3 allows remote malicious servers to execute arbitrary code via certain HTTP headers in an HTTP response, which lead to a buffer overflow.

The sendfile system call in FreeBSD 4.8 through 4.11 and 5 through 5.4 can transfer portions of kernel memory if a file is truncated while it is being sent, which could allow remote attackers to obtain sensitive information.

Integer overflow in IEEE 802.11 network subsystem (ieee80211_ioctl.c) in FreeBSD before 6.0-STABLE, while scanning for wireless networks, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by broadcasting crafted (1) beacon or (2) probe response frames.

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.

archive_read_support_format_tar.c in libarchive before 2.2.4 does not properly compute the length of a certain buffer when processing a malformed pax extension header, which allows user-assisted remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted (1) PAX or (2) TAR archive that triggers a buffer overflow.

Integer overflow in print-bgp.c in the BGP dissector in tcpdump 3.9.6 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via crafted TLVs in a BGP packet, related to an unchecked return value.

The IPv6 Neighbor Discovery Protocol (NDP) implementation in (1) FreeBSD 6.3 through 7.1, (2) OpenBSD 4.2 and 4.3, (3) NetBSD, (4) Force10 FTOS before E7.7.1.1, (5) Juniper JUNOS, and (6) Wind River VxWorks 5.x through 6.4 does not validate the origin of Neighbor Discovery messages, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (loss of connectivity) or read private network traffic via a spoofed message that modifies the Forward Information Base (FIB).

sys_term.c in telnetd in FreeBSD 7.0-RELEASE and other 7.x versions deletes dangerous environment variables with a method that was valid only in older FreeBSD distributions, which might allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by passing a crafted environment variable from a telnet client, as demonstrated by an LD_PRELOAD value that references a malicious library.

Off-by-one error in the __opiereadrec function in readrec.c in libopie in OPIE 2.4.1-test1 and earlier, as used on FreeBSD 6.4 through 8.1-PRERELEASE and other platforms, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (daemon crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a long username, as demonstrated by a long USER command to the FreeBSD 8.0 ftpd.

The LZW decompressor in (1) the BufCompressedFill function in fontfile/decompress.c in X.Org libXfont before 1.4.4 and (2) compress/compress.c in 4.3BSD, as used in zopen.c in OpenBSD before 3.8, FreeBSD, NetBSD 4.0.x and 5.0.x before 5.0.3 and 5.1.x before 5.1.1, FreeType 2.1.9, and other products, does not properly handle code words that are absent from the decompression table when encountered, which allows context-dependent attackers to trigger an infinite loop or a heap-based buffer overflow, and possibly execute arbitrary code, via a crafted compressed stream, a related issue to CVE-2006-1168 and CVE-2011-2896.
