The routine infrastructure component in IBM DB2 8 before FP17, 9.1 before FP5, and 9.5 before FP1 on Unix and Linux does not change the ownership of the db2fmp process, which has unknown impact and attack vectors.

Stack-based buffer overflow in the AUTH_LIST_GROUPS_FOR_AUTHID function in IBM DB2 UDB 9.1 before Fixpak 3 allows attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary code via a long argument.

Unspecified binaries in IBM DB2 8.x before 8.1 FixPak 15 and 9.1 before Fix Pack 2 allow local users to create or modify arbitrary files via unspecified environment variables related to "unsafe file access."

Buffer overflow in the TCP/IP listener in IBM DB2 Universal Database (UDB) before 8.1 FixPak 12 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a long MGRLVLLS message inside of an EXCSAT message when establishing a connection.

Multiple unspecified vulnerabilities in IBM DB2 Universal Database (UDB) before 8.1 FixPak 12 allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a (1) "long column list" in the (a) REPLACE INTO and (b) INSERT INTO portions of the LOAD command or a (2) large number of values in an IN clause, possibly related to a buffer overflow.

Shared memory sections and events in IBM DB2 8.1 have default permissions of read and write for the Everyone group, which allows local users to gain unauthorized access, gain sensitive information, such as cleartext passwords, and cause a denial of service.

IBM DB2 Universal Database (UDB) 820 before version 8 FixPak 10 (s050811) allows remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (application crash) by using a table function for an instance of snapshot_tbreorg, which triggers a trap in sqlnr_EStoE_action.

IBM DB2 Universal Database (UDB) 810 before ESE AIX 5765F4100 does not ensure that a user has execute privileges before permitting object creation based on routines, which allows remote authenticated users to gain privileges.

Stack-based buffer overflow in call in IBM DB2 7.x and 8.1 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long libname.

IBM DB2 Universal Database (UDB) 810 before 8.1 FP10 allows remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (application crash) via (1) certain equality predicates that trigger self-removal, aka IY70808; and (2) a query with more than 32000 elements in the IN-list, aka LI70817.
