Solaris 9, when configured as a Kerberos client with patch 112908-12 or 115168-03 and using pam_krb5 as an "auth" module with the debug feature enabled, records passwords in plaintext, which could allow local users to gain other user's passwords by reading log files.
Unknown vulnerability in the Basic Security Module (BSM), when configured to audit either the Administrative (ad) or the System-Wide Administration (as) audit class in Solaris 7, 8, and 9, allows local users to cause a denial of service (kernel panic).
The Sun Solaris Volume Manager (SVM) on Solaris 9 allows local users to cause a denial of service (kernel panic) via a malformed probe request to the SVM.
The Solaris Management Console (SMC) in Sun Solaris 8 and 9 generates different 404 error messages when a file does not exist versus when a file exists but is otherwise inaccessible, which could allow remote attackers to obtain sensitive information in conjunction with a directory traversal (..) attack.
Unknown vulnerability in the sendfilev function in Sun Solaris 8 and 9 allows local users to cause a denial of service (system panic) via unknown vectors.
The Secure Shell (SSH) Daemon (SSHD) in Sun Solaris 9 does not properly log IP addresses when SSHD is configured with the ListenAddress as 0.0.0.0, which makes it easier for remote attackers to hide the source of their activities.
The patches (1) 114332-08 and (2) 114929-06 for Sun Solaris 9 disable the auditing functionality of the Basic Security Module (BSM), which allows attackers to avoid having their activity logged.
