Freebsd: >> Freebsd >> 5.2 Security Vulnerabilities
The ispell_op function in ee on FreeBSD 4.10 to 6.0 uses predictable filenames and does not confirm which file is being written, which allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack when ee invokes ispell.

The device file system (devfs) in FreeBSD 5.x does not properly check parameters of the node type when creating a device node, which makes hidden devices available to attackers, who can then bypass restrictions on a jailed process.

FreeBSD 4.x through 4.11 and 5.x through 5.4 allows remote attackers to modify certain TCP options via a TCP packet with the SYN flag set for an already established session.

Multiple TCP implementations with Protection Against Wrapped Sequence Numbers (PAWS) with the timestamps option enabled allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (connection loss) via a spoofed packet with a large timer value, which causes the host to discard later packets because they appear to be too old.

FreeBSD 4.6 to 4.11 and 5.x to 5.4 uses insecure default permissions for the /dev/iir device, which allows local users to execute restricted ioctl calls to read or modify data on hardware that is controlled by the iir driver.

The i386_get_ldt system call in FreeBSD 4.7 to 4.11 and 5.x to 5.4 allows local users to access sensitive kernel memory via arguments with negative or very large values.

The kernel in FreeBSD 4.x to 4.11 and 5.x to 5.4 does not properly clear certain fixed-length buffers when copying variable-length data for use by applications, which could allow those applications to read previously used sensitive memory.

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.

Race condition in gzip 1.2.4, 1.3.3, and earlier, when decompressing a gzipped file, allows local users to modify permissions of arbitrary files via a hard link attack on a file while it is being decompressed, whose permissions are changed by gzip after the decompression is complete.

FreeBSD 5.x to 5.4 on AMD64 does not properly initialize the IO permission bitmap used to allow user access to certain hardware, which allows local users to bypass intended access restrictions to cause a denial of service, obtain sensitive information, and possibly gain privileges.
