IBM DB2 UDB 9.1 before Fixpak 4 uses incorrect permissions on ACLs for DB2NODES.CFG, which has unknown impact and attack vectors. NOTE: the vendor description of this issue is too vague to be certain that it is security-related.

Untrusted search path vulnerability in db2pd in IBM DB2 Universal Database (UDB) 8 before FixPak 16 and 9 before Fix Pack 4 allows local users to gain root privileges via a modified DB2INSTANCE environment variable that points to a malicious library. NOTE: this might be the same issue as CVE-2008-0697.

Multiple unspecified vulnerabilities in IBM Hardware Management Console (HMC) 3 R3.7 allow attackers to gain privileges via "some HMC commands."

Unspecified vulnerability in IBM Rational ClearQuest (CQ), when a Microsoft SQL Server or an IBM DB2 database is used, allows attackers to corrupt data via unspecified vectors.

Unspecified vulnerability in invscout in Inventory Scout in invscout.rte in IBM AIX 5.2 and 5.3 allows local users to delete system files that have names matching the final substring of a hostname alias, as demonstrated by hostnames ending in "unix".

The perfstat kernel extension in bos.perf.perfstat in AIX 5.3 does not verify privileges when processing a SET call, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (system hang or crash) via unspecified SET operations.

IBM Security Identity Manager (ISIM) Virtual Appliance 7.0.0.0 through 7.0.1.0 before 7.0.1-ISS-SIM-FP0001 allows local users to gain administrator privileges via unspecified vectors. IBM X-Force ID: 111643.

IBM i 7.2, 7.3, 7.4, and 7.5 contains a local privilege escalation vulnerability caused by an insufficient authority requirement. A local user without administrator privilege can configure a physical file trigger to execute with the privileges of a user socially engineered to access the target file. The correction is to require administrator privilege to configure trigger support. IBM X-Force ID: 285203.

IBM Rational Collaborative Lifecycle Management (CLM) 3.0.1 before 3.0.1.6 iFix7 Interim Fix 1, 4.0.x before 4.0.7 iFix10, 5.0.x before 5.0.2 iFix15, and 6.0.x before 6.0.1 iFix4; Rational Quality Manager (RQM) 3.0.x before 3.0.1.6 iFix7 Interim Fix 1, 4.0.x before 4.0.7 iFix10, 5.0.x before 5.0.2 iFix15, and 6.0.x before 6.0.1 iFix4; Rational Team Concert (RTC) 3.0.x before 3.0.1.6 iFix7 Interim Fix 1, 4.0.x before 4.0.7 iFix10, 5.0.x before 5.0.2 iFix15, and 6.0.x before 6.0.1 iFix4; Rational Requirements Composer (RRC) 3.0.x before 3.0.1.6 iFix7 Interim Fix 1 and 4.0.x before 4.0.7 iFix10; Rational DOORS Next Generation (RDNG) 4.0.x before 4.0.7 iFix10, 5.0.x before 5.0.2 iFix15, and 6.0.x before 6.0.1 iFix4; Rational Engineering Lifecycle Manager (RELM) 4.0.3, 4.0.4, 4.0.5, 4.0.6, and 4.0.7 before iFix10, 5.0.x before 5.0.2 iFix1, and 6.0.x before 6.0.2; Rational Rhapsody Design Manager (Rhapsody DM) 4.0.x before 4.0.7 iFix10, 5.0.x before 5.0.2 iFix15, and 6.0.x before 6.0.1 iFix4; and Rational Software Architect Design Manager (RSA DM) 4.0.x before 4.0.7 iFix10, 5.0.x before 5.0.2 iFix15, and 6.0.x before 6.0.1 iFix4 might allow local users to gain privileges via unspecified vectors. IBM X-Force ID: 108098.

The Self Tuning Memory Manager (STMM) component in IBM DB2 9.1 before FP8, 9.5 before FP5, and 9.7 before FP1 uses 0666 permissions for the STMM log file, which allows local users to cause a denial of service or have unspecified other impact by writing to this file.

The Query Compiler, Rewrite, and Optimizer component in IBM DB2 9.1 before FP8, 9.5 before FP5, and 9.7 before FP1 does not enforce privilege requirements for access to a (1) sequence or (2) global-variable object, which allows remote authenticated users to make use of data via unspecified vectors.

IBM FileNet Content Manager 4.0, 4.0.1, and 4.5, as used in IBM WebSphere Application Server (WAS) and Oracle BEA WebLogic Application Server, when the CE Web Services listener has a certain WSEAF configuration, does not properly restrict use of a cached Subject, which allows remote attackers to obtain access with the credentials of a recently authenticated user via unspecified vectors.

IBM WebSphere Application Server (WAS) 7.0 before 7.0.0.3 uses weak permissions (777) for files associated with unspecified "interim fixes," which allows attackers to modify files that would not have been accessible if the intended 755 permissions were used.
