IBM AIX 5.3, 6.1, 7.1, and 7.2 contains an unspecified vulnerability that would allow a locally authenticated user to obtain root level privileges. IBM APARs: IV88658, IV87981, IV88419, IV87640, IV88053.

IBM AIX 6.1, 7.1, and 7.2 could allow a local user to exploit a vulnerability in the bellmail binary to gain root privileges.

Directory traversal vulnerability in Eclipse Help in IBM Tivoli Lightweight Infrastructure (aka LWI), as used in AIX 5.3, 6.1, and 7.1, allows remote authenticated users to read arbitrary files via a crafted URL.

IBM AIX 5.3, 6.1, 7.1, and 7.2 and VIOS 2.2.x do not default to the latest TLS version, which makes it easier for man-in-the-middle attackers to obtain sensitive information via unspecified vectors.

The mustendd driver in IBM AIX 5.3, 6.1, 7.1, and 7.2 and VIOS 2.2.x, when the jumbo_frames feature is not enabled, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (FC1763 or FC5899 adapter crash) via crafted packets.

netstat in IBM AIX 5.3, 6.1, and 7.1 and VIOS 2.2.x, when a fibre channel adapter is used, allows local users to gain privileges via unspecified vectors.

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.

Multiple buffer overflows in (1) mkque and (2) mkquedev in bos.rte.printers in IBM AIX 6.1 and 7.1 allow local users to gain privileges by leveraging printq group membership.

The TFTP client in IBM AIX 6.1 and 7.1, and VIOS 2.2.2.2-FP-26 SP-02, when RBAC is enabled, allows remote authenticated users to bypass intended file-ownership restrictions, and read or overwrite arbitrary files, via unspecified vectors.

The IPv6 implementation in the inet subsystem in IBM AIX 6.1 and 7.1, and VIOS 2.2.2.2-FP-26 SP-02, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (system hang) via a crafted packet to an IPv6 interface.
