CVSS v3.1 |
| Format string vulnerability in top program allows local attackers to gain root privileges via the "kill" or "renice" function. |
| Kerberos 5 su (k5su) in FreeBSD 4.4 and earlier relies on the getlogin system call to determine if the user running k5su is root, which could allow a root-initiated process to regain its privileges after it has dropped them. |
| asmon and ascpu in FreeBSD allow local users to gain root privileges via a configuration file. |
| xsoldier program allows local users to gain root access via a long argument. |
| The SYN cache (syncache) and SYN cookie (syncookie) mechanism in FreeBSD 4.5 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) (1) via a SYN packet that is accepted using syncookies that causes a null pointer to be referenced for the socket's TCP options, or (2) by killing and restarting a process that listens on the same socket, which does not properly clear the old inpcb pointer on restart. |
| 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. |
| The kernel in FreeBSD 3.2 follows symbolic links when it creates core dump files, which allows local attackers to modify arbitrary files. |
| NetBSD 1.4.2 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service by sending a packet with an unaligned IP timestamp option. |
| Operating systems with shared memory implementations based on BSD 4.4 code allow a user to conduct a denial of service and bypass memory limits (e.g., as specified with rlimits) using mmap or shmget to allocate memory and cause page faults. |
| A FreeBSD patch for SSH on 2000-01-14 configures ssh to listen on port 722 as well as port 22, which might allow remote attackers to access SSH through port 722 even if port 22 is otherwise filtered. |
| The arplookup function in FreeBSD 5.1 and earlier, Mac OS X before 10.2.8, and possibly other BSD-based systems, allows remote attackers on a local subnet to cause a denial of service (resource starvation and panic) via a flood of spoofed ARP requests. |
| 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. |
| Buffer overflow in catopen() function in FreeBSD 5.0 and earlier, and possibly other OSes, allows local users to gain root privileges via a long environmental variable. |
| A buffer overflow in lsof allows local users to obtain root privilege. |
| 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. |
| 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. |
| Buffer overflows in brouted in FreeBSD and possibly other OSes allows local users to gain root privileges via long command line arguments. |
| The getnameinfo function in FreeBSD 4.1.1 and earlier, and possibly other operating systems, allows a remote attacker to cause a denial of service via a long DNS hostname. |
| Format string vulnerability in pw_error function in BSD libutil library allows local users to gain root privileges via a malformed password in commands such as chpass or passwd. |
| ktrace in BSD-based operating systems allows the owner of a process with special privileges to trace the process after its privileges have been lowered, which may allow the owner to obtain sensitive information that the process obtained while it was running with the extra privileges. |
