dtprintinfo in Common Desktop Environment 1.6 has a bug in the parser of lpstat (an invoked external command) during listing of the names of available printers. This allows low-privileged local users to inject arbitrary printer names via the $HOME/.printers file. This injection allows those users to manipulate the control flow and disclose memory contents on Solaris 10 systems. NOTE: This vulnerability only affects products that are no longer supported by the maintainer.

A stack-based buffer overflow in ParseColors in libXm in Common Desktop Environment 1.6 can be exploited by local low-privileged users via the dtprintinfo setuid binary to escalate their privileges to root on Solaris 10 systems. NOTE: This vulnerability only affects products that are no longer supported by the maintainer.

Oracle Solaris version 10 1/13, when using the Common Desktop Environment (CDE), is vulnerable to a privilege escalation vulnerability. A low privileged user can escalate to root by crafting a malicious printer and double clicking on the the crafted printer's icon.

Double free vulnerability in dtlogin in CDE on Solaris, HP-UX, and other operating systems allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted XDMCP packet.

Buffer overflow in the client connection routine of libDtSvc.so.1 in CDE Subprocess Control Service (dtspcd) allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands.
