CVSS v3.1 |
| Unspecified vulnerability in Window Maker 0.80.2 and earlier allows attackers to perform unknown actions via format string specifiers in a font specification in WMGLOBAL, probably a format string vulnerability. |
| Format string vulnerability in log.c in rssh before 2.2.2 allows remote authenticated users to execute arbitrary code. |
| Multiple unspecified format string vulnerabilities in Dia have unspecified impact and attack vectors, a different set of issues than CVE-2006-2480. |
| Format string vulnerability in time.cc in MySQL Server 4.1 before 4.1.21 and 5.0 before 1 April 2006 allows remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (crash) via a format string instead of a date as the first parameter to the date_format function, which is later used in a formatted print call to display the error message. |
| Format string vulnerability in the WriteText function in agl_text.cpp in Milan Mimica Sparklet 0.9.4 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via format string specifiers in a player nickname. |
| Format string vulnerability in a logging function as used by various SFTP servers, including (1) AttachmateWRQ Reflection for Secure IT UNIX Server before 6.0.0.9, (2) Reflection for Secure IT Windows Server before 6.0 build 38, (3) F-Secure SSH Server for Windows before 5.3 build 35, (4) F-Secure SSH Server for UNIX 3.0 through 5.0.8, (5) SSH Tectia Server 4.3.6 and earlier and 4.4.0, and (6) SSH Shell Server 3.2.9 and earlier, allows remote authenticated users to execute arbitrary commands via unspecified vectors, involving crafted filenames and the stat command. |
| Format string vulnerability in the auth_debug function in Courier-IMAP 1.6.0 through 2.2.1 and 3.x through 3.0.3, when login debugging (DEBUG_LOGIN) is enabled, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code. |
| Multiple format string vulnerabilities in logging functions in mod_auth_pgsql before 2.0.3, when used for user authentication against a PostgreSQL database, allows remote unauthenticated attackers to execute arbitrary code, as demonstrated via the username. |
| Multiple format string vulnerabilities in the logging code in Clam AntiVirus (ClamAV) before 0.88.1 might allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code. NOTE: as of 20060410, it is unclear whether this is a vulnerability, as there is some evidence that the arguments are actually being sanitized properly. |
| Format string vulnerability in cgi.c for Monkey daemon (monkeyd) before 0.9.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary code via an HTTP GET request containing double-encoded format string specifiers (aka "double expansion error"). |
| Multiple format string vulnerabilities in (1) neon 0.24.4 and earlier, and other products that use neon including (2) Cadaver, (3) Subversion, and (4) OpenOffice, allow remote malicious WebDAV servers to execute arbitrary code. |
| Multiple format string vulnerabilities in the auth_ldap_log_reason function in Apache auth_ldap 1.6.0 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via various vectors, including the username. |
| Format string vulnerability in Dia 0.94 allows user-assisted attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code by triggering errors or warnings, as demonstrated via format string specifiers in a .bmp filename. NOTE: the original exploit was demonstrated through a command line argument, but there are other mechanisms for input that are automatically processed by Dia, such as a crafted .dia file. |
| Pivotal RabbitMQ, versions 3.7.x prior to 3.7.21 and 3.8.x prior to 3.8.1, and RabbitMQ for Pivotal Platform, 1.16.x versions prior to 1.16.7 and 1.17.x versions prior to 1.17.4, contain a web management plugin that is vulnerable to a denial of service attack. The "X-Reason" HTTP Header can be leveraged to insert a malicious Erlang format string that will expand and consume the heap, resulting in the server crashing. |
|
A format string vulnerability exists in iControl SOAP that allows an authenticated attacker to crash the iControl SOAP CGI process or, potentially execute arbitrary code. In appliance mode BIG-IP, a successful exploit of this vulnerability can allow the attacker to cross a security boundary.
Note: Software versions which have reached End of Technical Support (EoTS) are not evaluated.

| IBM Spectrum Scale (5.1.0.0 through 5.1.2.8 and 5.1.3.0 through 5.1.5.1) and IBM Elastic Storage System (6.1.0.0 through 6.1.2.4 and 6.1.3.0 through 6.1.4.1) could allow an authenticated user to cause a denial of service through the GUI using a format string attack. IBM X-Force ID: 239539. |
| Use of Externally-Controlled Format String vulnerabilities in STST TA prior to SMR Jan-2023 Release 1 allows arbitrary code execution. |
| An XML External Entity (XXE) vulnerability in the deserializeArgs() method of Java SDK for CloudEvents v4.0.1 allows attackers to access sensitive information via supplying a crafted XML-formatted event message. |
| This vulnerability allows network-adjacent attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected installations of D-Link DIR-1935 1.03 routers. Although authentication is required to exploit this vulnerability, the existing authentication mechanism can be bypassed. The specific flaw exists within the handling of ConfigFileUpload requests to the web management portal. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of a user-supplied string before using it as a format specifier. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code in the context of root. Was ZDI-CAN-16141. |
| In Git for Windows, the Windows port of Git, no localized messages are shipped with the installer. As a consequence, Git is expected not to localize messages at all, and skips the gettext initialization. However, due to a change in MINGW-packages, the `gettext()` function's implicit initialization no longer uses the runtime prefix but uses the hard-coded path `C:\mingw64\share\locale` to look for localized messages. And since any authenticated user has the permission to create folders in `C:\` (and since `C:\mingw64` does not typically exist), it is possible for low-privilege users to place fake messages in that location where `git.exe` will pick them up in version 2.40.1.
This vulnerability is relatively hard to exploit and requires social engineering. For example, a legitimate message at the end of a clone could be maliciously modified to ask the user to direct their web browser to a malicious website, and the user might think that the message comes from Git and is legitimate. It does require local write access by the attacker, though, which makes this attack vector less likely. Version 2.40.1 contains a patch for this issue. Some workarounds are available. Do not work on a Windows machine with shared accounts, or alternatively create a `C:\mingw64` folder and leave it empty. Users who have administrative rights may remove the permission to create folders in `C:\`. |
