Unknown vulnerability in nsd in SGI IRIX 6.5.x through 6.5.20f, and possibly earlier versions, allows attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption).

Unknown vulnerability in SGI IRIX 6.5.x through 6.5.20, and possibly earlier versions, allows local users to cause a core dump in scheme and possibly gain privileges via certain environment variables, a different vulnerability than CVE-2001-0797 and CVE-1999-0028.

SGI IRIX 6.5.x through 6.5.20f, and possibly earlier versions, does not follow "-" entries in the /etc/group file, which may cause subsequent group membership entries to be processed inadvertently.

The DNS callbacks in nsd in SGI IRIX 6.5.x through 6.5.20f, and possibly earlier versions, do not perform sufficient sanity checking, with unknown impact.

xfsdq in xfsdump does not create quota information files securely, which allows local users to gain root privileges.

The upgrade of IRIX on Origin 3000 to 6.5.13 through 6.5.16 changes the MAC address of the system, which could modify intended access restrictions that are based on a MAC address.

fsr_efs in IRIX 6.5 allows local users to conduct unauthorized file activities via a symlink attack, possibly via the .fsrlast file.

mv in IRIX 6.5 creates a directory with world-writable permissions while moving a directory, which could allow local users to modify files and directories.

rpcbind in SGI IRIX, when using the -w command line switch, allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack.

Integer overflow in the xdrmem_getbytes() function, and possibly other functions, of XDR (external data representation) libraries derived from SunRPC, including libnsl, libc, glibc, and dietlibc, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via certain integer values in length fields, a different vulnerability than CVE-2002-0391.
