An issue was discovered in Wind River VxWorks 6.9 and 7. The function ``tarExtract`` implements TAR file extraction and thereby also processes files within an archive that have relative or absolute file paths. A developer using the "tarExtract" function may expect that the function will strip leading slashes from absolute paths or stop processing when encountering relative paths that are outside of the extraction path, unless otherwise forced. This could lead to unexpected and undocumented behavior, which in general could result in a directory traversal, and associated unexpected behavior.

An issue was discovered in Wind River VxWorks 6.9 and 7, that allows a specifically crafted packet sent by a Radius server, may cause Denial of Service during the IP Radius access procedure.

In Wind River VxWorks 6.9 and 7, a specific crafted packet may lead to an out-of-bounds read during an IKE initial exchange scenario.

An issue was discovered in Wind River VxWorks 7. The memory allocator has a possible integer overflow in calculating a memory block's size to be allocated by calloc(). As a result, the actual memory allocated is smaller than the buffer size specified by the arguments, leading to memory corruption.

Integer overflow in the _authenticate function in svc_auth.c in Wind River VxWorks 5.5 through 6.9.4.1, when the Remote Procedure Call (RPC) protocol is enabled, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a username and password.

IPSSH (aka the SSH server) in Wind River VxWorks 6.5 through 6.9 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (daemon outage) via a crafted authentication request.
