cfgcon in IBM AIX 5.2 and 5.3 does not properly validate the argument to the "-p" option to swcons, which allows local users in the system group to create or overwrite an arbitrary file, and enable world writability of this file, by using the file's name as the argument.

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.

pioout in IBM AIX 5.3 SP6 allows local users to execute arbitrary code by specifying a malicious library with the -R (ParseRoutine) command line argument.

Buffer overflow in the atm subset in arp in devices.common.IBM.atm.rte in AIX 5.2 and 5.3 allows local users to gain root privileges.

Multiple buffer overflows in IBM AIX 5.2 and 5.3 allow local users in the system group to gain root privileges via unspecified vectors involving the (1) chpath, (2) rmpath, and (3) devinstall programs in bos.rte.methods.

Multiple race conditions in IBM DB2 UDB 8 before Fixpak 15 and 9.1 before Fixpak 3 allow local users to gain root privileges via a symlink attack on certain files.

Buffer overflow in the ftp client in IBM AIX 5.3 SP6 and 5.2.0 allows local users to execute arbitrary code via unspecified vectors that trigger the overflow in a gets function call. NOTE: the client is setuid root on AIX, so this issue crosses privilege boundaries.

Stack-based buffer overflow in IBM DB2 UDB 8 before Fixpak 15 and 9.1 before Fixpak 3 allows attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long DASPROF and possibly other environment variables, which are copied into the buildDasPaths buffer.

AIX 5.2 and 5.3 install pioinit with user and group ownership of bin, which allows local users with bin or possibly printq privileges to gain root privileges by modifying pioinit.

Stack-based buffer overflow in capture in IBM AIX 5.3 SP6 and 5.2.0 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a large number of terminal control sequences.

IBM i2 Intelligent Analyis Platform 9.2.1 could allow a local attacker to execute arbitrary code on the system, caused by a memory corruption. By persuading a victim to open a specially-crafted file, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code on the system. IBM X-Force ID: 175635.

Multiple untrusted search path vulnerabilities in (1) db2rspgn and (2) kbbacf1 in IBM DB2 Express Edition 9.7, as used in the IBM Tivoli Monitoring for Databases: DB2 Agent, allow local users to gain privileges via a Trojan horse libkbb.so in the current working directory, related to the DT_RPATH ELF header.

Untrusted search path vulnerability in IBM InfoSphere BigInsights 3.0, 3.0.0.1, 3.0.0.2, and 4.0, when a DB2 database is used, allows local users to gain privileges via a Trojan horse library that is loaded by a setuid or setgid program.

IBM i2 Intelligent Analyis Platform 9.2.1 could allow a local attacker to execute arbitrary code on the system, caused by a memory corruption. By persuading a victim to open a specially-crafted file, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code on the system. IBM X-Force ID: 175647.

IBM i2 Intelligent Analyis Platform 9.2.1 could allow a local attacker to execute arbitrary code on the system, caused by a memory corruption. By persuading a victim to open a specially-crafted file, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code on the system. IBM X-Force ID: 175649.

IBM i2 Analyst Notebook 9.2.1 could allow a local attacker to execute arbitrary code on the system, caused by a memory corruption. By persuading a victim to open a specially-crafted file, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code on the system. IBM X-Force ID: 183317.
