crontab.c in crontab in FreeBSD and Apple Mac OS X allows local users to (1) determine the existence of arbitrary files via a symlink attack on a /tmp/crontab.XXXXXXXXXX temporary file and (2) perform MD5 checksum comparisons on arbitrary pairs of files via two symlink attacks on /tmp/crontab.XXXXXXXXXX temporary files.
crontab.c in crontab in FreeBSD allows local users to determine the existence of arbitrary directories via a command-line argument composed of a directory name concatenated with a directory traversal sequence that leads to the /etc/crontab pathname.
Balabit syslog-ng 2.0, 3.0, 3.1, 3.2 OSE and PE, when running on FreeBSD or HP-UX, does not properly perform cast operations, which causes syslog-ng to use a default value of -1 to create log files with insecure permissions (07777), which allows local users to read and write to these log files.
The pfs_getextattr function in FreeBSD 7.x before 7.3-RELEASE and 8.x before 8.0-RC1 unlocks a mutex that was not previously locked, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (kernel panic), overwrite arbitrary memory locations, and possibly execute arbitrary code via vectors related to opening a file on a file system that uses pseudofs.
Multiple integer signedness errors in smb_subr.c in the netsmb module in the kernel in NetBSD 5.0.2 and earlier, FreeBSD, and Apple Mac OS X allow local users to cause a denial of service (panic) via a negative size value in a /dev/nsmb ioctl operation, as demonstrated by a (1) SMBIOC_LOOKUP or (2) SMBIOC_OPENSESSION ioctl call.
The Coda filesystem kernel module, as used in NetBSD and FreeBSD, when Coda is loaded and Venus is running with /coda mounted, allows local users to read sensitive heap memory via a large out_size value in a ViceIoctl struct to a Coda ioctl, which triggers a buffer over-read.
FreeBSD 7.1 through 8.1-PRERELEASE does not copy the read-only flag when creating a duplicate mbuf buffer reference, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (system file corruption) and gain privileges via the sendfile system call.
Off-by-one error in the __opiereadrec function in readrec.c in libopie in OPIE 2.4.1-test1 and earlier, as used on FreeBSD 6.4 through 8.1-PRERELEASE and other platforms, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (daemon crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a long username, as demonstrated by a long USER command to the FreeBSD 8.0 ftpd.
sys/nfsclient/nfs_vfsops.c in the NFS client in the kernel in FreeBSD 7.2 through 8.1-PRERELEASE, when vfs.usermount is enabled, does not validate the length of a certain fhsize parameter, which allows local users to gain privileges via a crafted mount request.
jail.c in jail in FreeBSD 8.0 and 8.1-PRERELEASE, when the "-l -U root" options are omitted, does not properly restrict access to the current working directory, which might allow local users to read, modify, or create arbitrary files via standard filesystem operations.
