CVSS v3.1 |
| E-mail client in Softarc FirstClass Internet Server 5.506 and earlier stores usernames and passwords in cleartext in the files (1) home.fc for version 5.506, (2) network.fc for version 3.5, or (3) FCCLIENT.LOG when logging is enabled. |
| BMC Patrol component, when installed with Compaq Insight Management Agent 4.23 and earlier, or Management Agents for Servers 4.40 and earlier, creates a PFCUser account with a default password and potentially dangerous privileges. |
| Compaq Integration Maintenance Utility as used in Compaq Insight Manager agent before SmartStart 4.50 modifies the legal notice caption (LegalNoticeCaption) and text (LegalNoticeText) in Windows NT, which could produce a legal notice that is in violation of the security policy. |
| Netscape Communicator 4.04 through 4.7 (and possibly other versions) in various UNIX operating systems converts the 0x8b character to a "<" sign, and the 0x9b character to a ">" sign, which could allow remote attackers to attack other clients via cross-site scripting (CSS) in CGI programs that do not filter these characters. |
| When an administrator in Windows NT or Windows 2000 changes a user policy, the policy is not properly updated if the local ntconfig.pol is not writable by the user, which could allow local users to bypass restrictions that would otherwise be enforced by the policy, possibly by changing the policy file to be read-only. |
| When the Ntconfig.pol file is used on a server whose name is longer than 13 characters, Windows NT does not properly enforce policies for global groups, which could allow users to bypass restrictions that were intended by those policies. |
| Windows NT 4.0 allows local users to cause a denial of service via a user mode application that closes a handle that was opened in kernel mode, which causes a crash when the kernel attempts to close the handle. |
| Windows NT 3.51 and 4.0 allow local users to cause a denial of service (crash) by running a program that creates a large number of locks on a file, which exhausts the NonPagedPool. |
| Windows NT 4.0 allows local users to cause a denial of service (crash) via an illegal kernel mode address to the functions (1) GetThreadContext or (2) SetThreadContext. |
| Pegasus e-mail client 3.0 and earlier uses weak encryption to store POP3 passwords in the pmail.ini file, which allows local users to easily decrypt the passwords and read e-mail. |
| Internet Explorer 5.0 does not properly reset the username/password cache for Web sites that do not use standard cache controls, which could allow users on the same system to access restricted web sites that were visited by other users. |
| AV Option for MS Exchange Server option for InoculateIT 4.53, and possibly other versions, only scans the Inbox folder tree of a Microsoft Exchange server, which could allow viruses to escape detection if a user's rules cause the message to be moved to a different mailbox. |
| Real Media RealServer (rmserver) 6.0.3.353 stores a password in plaintext in the world-readable rmserver.cfg file, which allows local users to gain privileges. |
| The setup wizard (ie5setup.exe) for Internet Explorer 5.0 disables (1) the screen saver, which could leave the system open to users with physical access if a failure occurs during an unattended installation, and (2) the Task Scheduler Service, which might prevent the scheduled execution of security-critical programs. |
| Triactive Remote Manager with Basic authentication enabled stores the username and password in cleartext in registry keys, which could allow local users to gain privileges. |
| FileSystemObject (FSO) in the showfile.asp Active Server Page (ASP) allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files by specifying the name in the file parameter. |
| DNS allows remote attackers to use DNS name servers as traffic amplifiers via a UDP DNS query with a spoofed source address, which produces more traffic to the victim than was sent by the attacker. |
| NetWare NFS mode 1 and 2 implements the "Read Only" flag in Unix by changing the ownership of a file to root, which allows local users to gain root privileges by creating a setuid program and setting it to "Read Only," which NetWare-NFS changes to a setuid root program. |
| Perl 5.004_04 and earlier follows symbolic links when running with the -e option, which allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on the /tmp/perl-eaXXXXX file. |
| Control Panel "Password Security" option for Apple Powerbooks allows attackers with physical access to the machine to bypass the security by booting it with an emergency startup disk and using a disk editor to modify the on/off toggle or password in the aaaaaaaAPWD file, which is normally inaccessible. |
