The default configuration of Microsoft Windows uses the Web Proxy Autodiscovery Protocol (WPAD) without static WPAD entries, which might allow remote attackers to intercept web traffic by registering a proxy server using WINS or DNS, then responding to WPAD requests, as demonstrated using Internet Explorer. NOTE: it could be argued that if an attacker already has control over WINS/DNS, then web traffic could already be intercepted by modifying WINS or DNS records, so this would not cross privilege boundaries and would not be a vulnerability. It has also been reported that DHCP is an alternate attack vector.

add.php in MyBlog 0.9.8 and earlier allows remote attackers to bypass authentication and gain administrative access by setting a cookie with admin=yes and login=admin.

The (1) Aruba Mobility Controllers 200, 600, 2400, and 6000 and (2) Alcatel-Lucent OmniAccess Wireless 43xx and 6000 do not properly implement authentication and privilege assignment for the guest account, which allows remote attackers to access administrative interfaces or the WLAN.

sre/params.php in the Integrity Clientless Security (ICS) component in Check Point Connectra NGX R62 3.x and earlier before Security Hotfix 5, and possibly VPN-1 NGX R62, allows remote attackers to bypass security requirements via a crafted Report parameter, which returns a valid ICSCookie authentication token.

The default configuration of JBoss does not restrict access to the (1) console and (2) web management interfaces, which allows remote attackers to bypass authentication and gain administrative access via direct requests.

Mozilla based browsers, including Firefox before 1.5.0.10 and 2.x before 2.0.0.2, and SeaMonkey before 1.0.8, allow remote attackers to bypass the same origin policy, steal cookies, and conduct other attacks by writing a URI with a null byte to the hostname (location.hostname) DOM property, due to interactions with DNS resolver code.

ip6_tables in netfilter in the Linux kernel before 2.6.16.31 allows remote attackers to (1) bypass a rule that disallows a protocol, via a packet with the protocol header not located immediately after the fragment header, aka "ip6_tables protocol bypass bug;" and (2) bypass a rule that looks for a certain extension header, via a packet with an extension header outside the first fragment, aka "ip6_tables extension header bypass bug."

A vulnerability has been identified in SINUMERIK 808D V4.7 (All versions), SINUMERIK 808D V4.8 (All versions), SINUMERIK 828D V4.7 (All versions < V4.7 SP6 HF1), SINUMERIK 840D sl V4.7 (All versions < V4.7 SP6 HF5), SINUMERIK 840D sl V4.8 (All versions < V4.8 SP3). By sending a specially crafted authentication request to the affected systems a remote attacker could escalate his privileges to an elevated user account but not to root. The security vulnerability could be exploited by an attacker with network access to the affected systems. Successful exploitation requires no privileges and no user interaction. The vulnerability could allow an attacker to compromise confidentiality, integrity and availability of the system. At the time of advisory publication no public exploitation of this security vulnerability was known.

A vulnerability in the use of JSON web tokens by the web-based service portal of Cisco Elastic Services Controller Software could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to gain administrative access to an affected system. The vulnerability is due to the presence of static default credentials for the web-based service portal of the affected software. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by extracting the credentials from an image of the affected software and using those credentials to generate a valid administrative session token for the web-based service portal of any other installation of the affected software. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to gain administrative access to the web-based service portal of an affected system. This vulnerability affects Cisco Elastic Services Controller Software Release 3.0.0. Cisco Bug IDs: CSCvg30884.

DeluxeBB 1.3 stores sensitive information under the web root with insufficient access control, which allows remote attackers to obtain user and configuration information, log data, and gain administrative access via a direct request to scripts in (1) templates/ including (2) templates/deluxe/admincp/, (3) templates/corporate/admincp/, and (4) templates/blue/admincp/; (5) images/; (6) logs/ including (7) logs/cp.php; (8) wysiwyg/; (9) docs/; (10) classes/; (11) lang/; and (12) settings/.

classes/session/cc_admin_session.php in CubeCart 4.3.4 does not properly restrict administrative access permissions, which allows remote attackers to bypass restrictions and gain administrative access via a HTTP request that contains an empty (1) sessID (ccAdmin cookie), (2) X_CLUSTER_CLIENT_IP header, or (3) User-Agent header.

JoxTechnology Ajox Poll does not properly restrict access to admin/managepoll.php, which allows remote attackers to bypass authentication and gain administrative access via a direct request.

admin.php in MRCGIGUY The Ticket System 2.0 does not properly restrict access, which allows remote attackers to (1) obtain sensitive configuration information via the editconfig action or (2) change the administrator's password via the id parameter in an editop action.

Citrix XenApp (formerly Presentation Server) 4.5 Hotfix Rollup Pack 3 does not apply an access policy when it is defined with the Access Gateway Advanced Edition filters, which allows attackers to bypass intended access restrictions via unknown vectors.

httpd.c in httpd in the management GUI in DD-WRT 24 sp1 does not require administrative authentication for programs under cgi-bin/, which allows remote attackers to change settings via HTTP requests.

Optimum Web Design Tutorial Share 3.5.0 and earlier allows remote attackers to bypass authentication and obtain administrative access by setting the usernamed cookie parameter.

admin/changepassword.php in Job Script Job Board Software 2.0 allows remote attackers to change the administrator password and gain administrator privileges via a direct request.

Certain Fedora build scripts for nfs-utils before 1.1.2-9.fc9 on Fedora 9, and before 1.1.4-6.fc10 on Fedora 10, omit TCP Wrapper support, which might allow remote attackers to bypass intended access restrictions, possibly a related issue to CVE-2008-1376.

PHPAuctions (aka PHPAuctionSystem) allows remote attackers to bypass authentication and gain administrative access via modified (1) PHPAUCTION_RM_ID, (2) PHPAUCTION_RM_NAME, (3) PHPAUCTION_RM_USERNAME, and (4) PHPAUCTION_RM_EMAIL cookies.

SonicWall Analytics 2.5 On-Prem is vulnerable to Java Debug Wire Protocol (JDWP) interface security misconfiguration vulnerability which potentially leads to Remote Code Execution. This vulnerability impacts Analytics On-Prem 2.5.2518 and earlier.
