The init scripts in Great Internet Mersenne Prime Search (GIMPS) 23.9 and earlier execute user-owned programs with root privileges, which allows local users to gain privileges by modifying the programs.
The init scripts in ChessBrain 20407 and earlier execute user-owned programs with root privileges, which allows local users to gain privileges by modifying the programs.
rssh 2.2.2 and earlier does not properly restrict programs that can be run, which could allow remote authenticated users to bypass intended access restrictions and execute arbitrary programs via (1) rdist -P, (2) rsync, or (3) scp -S.
The unison command in scponly before 4.0 does not properly restrict programs that can be run, which could allow remote authenticated users to bypass intended access restrictions and execute arbitrary programs via the (1) -rshcmd or (2) -sshcmd flags.
Tomcat before 5.0.27-r3 in Gentoo Linux sets the default permissions on the init scripts as tomcat:tomcat, but executes the scripts with root privileges, which could allow local users in the tomcat group to execute arbitrary commands as root by modifying the scripts.
Opera 7.54 and earlier uses kfmclient exec to handle unknown MIME types, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a shortcut or launcher that contains an Exec entry.
The mod_authz_svn module in Subversion 1.0.7 and earlier does not properly restrict access to all metadata on unreadable paths, which could allow remote attackers to gain sensitive information via (1) svn log -v, (2) svn propget, or (3) svn blame, and other commands that follow renames.
The xdvizilla script in tetex-bin 2.0.2 creates temporary files with predictable file names, which allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack.
Integer overflow in the TIFFFetchStripThing function in tif_dirread.c for libtiff 3.6.1 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a TIFF file with the STRIPOFFSETS flag and a large number of strips, which causes a zero byte buffer to be allocated and leads to a heap-based buffer overflow.
