CVE-2016-8944ibm corporationaix+1
EPSS score0.35%
IBM AIX 7.1 and 7.2 allows a local user to open a file with a specially crafted argument that would crash the system. IBM APARs: IV91488, IV91487, IV91456, IV90234.CVE-2025-62231debianxorg-server+16EPSS score0.30%
A flaw was identified in the X.Org X server’s X Keyboard (Xkb) extension where improper bounds checking in the XkbSetCompatMap() function can cause an unsigned short overflow. If an attacker sends specially crafted input data, the value calculation may overflow, leading to memory corruption or a crash.CVE-2025-62230debianxorg-server+16EPSS score0.28%
A flaw was discovered in the X.Org X server’s X Keyboard (Xkb) extension when handling client resource cleanup. The software frees certain data structures without properly detaching related resources, leading to a use-after-free condition. This can cause memory corruption or a crash when affected clients disconnect.CVE-2025-36096ibmaix+1EPSS score0.32%
IBM AIX 7.2, and 7.3 and IBM VIOS 3.1, and 4.1 stores NIM private keys used in NIM environments in an insecure way which is susceptible to unauthorized access by an attacker using man in the middle techniques.CVE-2025-36236ibmaix+1EPSS score0.53%
IBM AIX 7.2, and 7.3 and IBM VIOS 3.1, and 4.1 NIM server (formerly known as NIM master) service (nimesis) could allow a remote attacker to traverse directories on the system. An attacker could send a specially crafted URL request to write arbitrary files on the system.CVE-2025-36244ibmaix+1EPSS score0.12%
IBM AIX 7.2, 7.3, IBM VIOS 3.1, and 4.1, when configured to use Kerberos network authentication, could allow a local user to write to files on the system with root privileges due to improper initialization of critical variables.CVE-2025-36251ibmaix+1EPSS score0.54%
IBM AIX 7.2, and 7.3 and IBM VIOS 3.1, and 4.1 nimsh service SSL/TLS implementations could allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary commands due to improper process controls. This addresses additional attack vectors for a vulnerability that was previously addressed in CVE-2024-56347.CVE-2025-36250ibmaix+1EPSS score0.67%
IBM AIX 7.2, and 7.3 and IBM VIOS 3.1, and 4.1 NIM server (formerly known as NIM master) service (nimesis) could allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary commands due to improper process controls. This addresses additional attack vectors for a vulnerability that was previously addressed in CVE-2024-56346.CVE-2025-8732debianlibxml2+5EPSS score0.22%
A vulnerability was found in libxml2 up to 2.14.5. It has been declared as problematic. This vulnerability affects the function xmlParseSGMLCatalog of the component xmlcatalog. The manipulation leads to uncontrolled recursion. Attacking locally is a requirement. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used. The real existence of this vulnerability is still doubted at the moment. The code maintainer explains, that "[t]he issue can only be triggered with untrusted SGML catalogs and it makes absolutely no sense to use untrusted catalogs. I also doubt that anyone is still using SGML catalogs at all."CVE-2025-33112ibmaix+1EPSS score0.22%
IBM AIX 7.3 and IBM VIOS 4.1.1 Perl implementation could allow a non-privileged local user to exploit a vulnerability to execute arbitrary code due to improper neutralization of pathname input.CVE-2020-4887ibmaix+1EPSS score0.31%
IBM AIX 7.1, 7.2 and AIX VIOS 3.1 could allow a local user to exploit a vulnerability in the gencore user command to create arbitrary files in any directory. IBM X-Force ID: 190911.CVE-2020-4829ibmaix+1EPSS score0.35%
IBM AIX 7.1, 7.2, and VIOS 3.1 could allow a local user to exploit a vulnerability in the ksu user command to gain root privileges. IBM X-Force ID: 189960.CVE-2020-4788debianlinux+45EPSS score0.39%
IBM Power9 (AIX 7.1, 7.2, and VIOS 3.1) processors could allow a local user to obtain sensitive information from the data in the L1 cache under extenuating circumstances. IBM X-Force ID: 189296.CVE-2014-0899ibmaixEPSS score1.91%
ftpd in IBM AIX 7.1.1 before SP10 and 7.1.2 before SP5, when a Workload Partition (aka WPAR) for AIX 5.2 or 5.3 is used, allows remote authenticated users to bypass intended permission settings and modify arbitrary files via FTP commands.CVE-2014-0930ibmaix+1EPSS score0.47%
The ptrace system call in IBM AIX 5.3, 6.1, and 7.1, and VIOS 2.2.x, allows local users to cause a denial of service (system crash) or obtain sensitive information from kernel memory via a crafted PT_LDINFO operation.CVE-2014-8904ibmaix+1EPSS score0.96%
lquerylv in cmdlvm in IBM AIX 5.3, 6.1, and 7.1 and VIOS 2.2.x allows local users to gain privileges via a crafted DBGCMD_LQUERYLV environment-variable value.CVE-2014-3566applemac_os_x+116EPSS score100.00%
The SSL protocol 3.0, as used in OpenSSL through 1.0.1i and other products, uses nondeterministic CBC padding, which makes it easier for man-in-the-middle attackers to obtain cleartext data via a padding-oracle attack, aka the "POODLE" issue.CVE-2014-3074ibmaix+1EPSS score0.58%
The runtime linker in IBM AIX 6.1 and 7.1 and VIOS 2.2.x allows local users to create a mode-666 root-owned file, and consequently gain privileges, by setting crafted MALLOCOPTIONS and MALLOCBUCKETS environment-variable values and then executing a setuid program.CVE-2014-3977ibmaix+1EPSS score0.87%
libodm.a in IBM AIX 6.1 and 7.1, and VIOS 2.2.x, allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on a temporary file. NOTE: this vulnerability exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2012-2179.CVE-2001-1557ibmaixEPSS score1.19%
Buffer overflow in ftpd in IBM AIX 4.3 and 5.1 allows attackers to gain privileges.
