CVSS v3.1 |
| The undocumented semconfig system call in BSD freezes the state of semaphores, which allows local users to cause a denial of service of the semaphore system by using the semconfig call. |
| FreeBSD port programs that use libkvm for FreeBSD 4.6.2-RELEASE and earlier, including (1) asmon, (2) ascpu, (3) bubblemon, (4) wmmon, and (5) wmnet2, leave open file descriptors for /dev/mem and /dev/kmem, which allows local users to read kernel memory. |
| Integer signedness error in several system calls for FreeBSD 4.6.1 RELEASE-p10 and earlier may allow attackers to access sensitive kernel memory via large negative values to the (1) accept, (2) getsockname, and (3) getpeername system calls, and the (4) vesa FBIO_GETPALETTE ioctl. |
| Buffer overflow in FreeBSD libmytinfo library allows local users to execute commands via a long TERMCAP environmental variable. |
| Local users can start Sendmail in daemon mode and gain root privileges. |
| The kqueue mechanism in FreeBSD 4.3 through 4.6 STABLE allows local users to cause a denial of service (kernel panic) via a pipe call in which one end is terminated and an EVFILT_WRITE filter is registered for the other end. |
| The kernel in FreeBSD 3.2 follows symbolic links when it creates core dump files, which allows local attackers to modify arbitrary files. |
| Integer overflow in the Berkeley Fast File System (FFS) in FreeBSD 4.6.1 RELEASE-p4 and earlier allows local users to access arbitrary file contents within FFS to gain privileges by creating a file that is larger than allowed by the virtual memory system. |
| 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. |
| Local user gains root privileges via buffer overflow in rdist, via lookup() function. |
| FreeBSD kernel 4.6 and earlier closes the file descriptors 0, 1, and 2 after they have already been assigned to /dev/null when the descriptors reference procfs or linprocfs, which could allow local users to reuse the file descriptors in a setuid or setgid program to modify critical data and gain privileges. |
| Buffer overflow in the huh program in the orville-write package allows local users to gain root privileges. |
| The rc system startup script for FreeBSD 4 through 4.5 allows local users to delete arbitrary files via a symlink attack on X Windows lock files. |
| KDE kppp allows local users to create a directory in an arbitrary location via the HOME environmental variable. |
| The accept_filter mechanism in FreeBSD 4 through 4.5 does not properly remove entries from the incomplete listen queue when adding a syncache, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (network service availability) via a large number of connection attempts, which fills the queue. |
| Kerberos 5 su (k5su) in FreeBSD 4.5 and earlier does not verify that a user is a member of the wheel group before granting superuser privileges, which could allow unauthorized users to execute commands as root. |
| Buffer overflow in the dump utility in the Linux ext2fs backup package allows local users to gain privileges via a long command line argument. |
| Sendmail allows local users to write to a file and gain group permissions via a .forward or :include: file. |
| 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. |
| 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. |
