CVSS v3.1 |
| Format string vulnerability in the CF_syslog function launchd in Apple Mac OS X 10.4 up to 10.4.6 allows local users to execute arbitrary code via format string specifiers that are not properly handled in a syslog call in the logging facility, as demonstrated by using a crafted plist file. |
| Multiple unspecified format string vulnerabilities in Dia have unspecified impact and attack vectors, a different set of issues than CVE-2006-2480. |
| Format string vulnerability in the administration function in Cisco Secure Access Control Server (ACS) for Windows, 2.6.x and earlier and 3.x through 3.01 (build 40), allows remote attackers to crash the CSADMIN module only (denial of service of administration function) or execute arbitrary code via format strings in the URL to port 2002. |
| Format string vulnerability in the raydium_log function in console.c in Raydium before SVN revision 310 allows local users to execute arbitrary code via format string specifiers in the format parameter, which are not properly handled in a call to raydium_console_line_add. |
| Multiple format string vulnerabilities in logging functions in mod_auth_pgsql before 2.0.3, when used for user authentication against a PostgreSQL database, allows remote unauthenticated attackers to execute arbitrary code, as demonstrated via the username. |
| Multiple format string vulnerabilities in Wireshark (aka Ethereal) 0.10.x to 0.99.0 allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary code via the (1) ANSI MAP, (2) Checkpoint FW-1, (3) MQ, (4) XML, and (5) NTP dissectors. |
| Multiple format string vulnerabilities in the auth_ldap_log_reason function in Apache auth_ldap 1.6.0 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via various vectors, including the username. |
| Format string vulnerability in PunkBuster 1.180 and earlier, as used by Soldier of Fortune II and possibly other games, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (server crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via format string specifiers in invalid cvar values, which are not properly handled when the server kicks the player and records the reason. |
| Format string vulnerability in the error-reporting feature in the mysqli extension in PHP 5.1.0 and 5.1.1 might allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via format string specifiers in MySQL error messages. |
| The calendar module in phpWebSite 0.9.x and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a long year parameter. |
| In versions of Zend Server 8.5 and prior to version 9.2 a format string injection was discovered.

| Solar FTP Server fails to properly handle format strings passed to the USER command. When a specially crafted string containing format specifiers is sent, the server crashes due to a read access violation in the __output_1() function of sfsservice.exe. This results in a denial of service (DoS) condition. |
| Use of Externally-Controlled Format String vulnerability in Merge DICOM Toolkit C/C++ on Windows.
When MC_Open_Association() function is used to open DICOM Association and gets DICOM Application Context Name with illegal characters, it might result in an unhandled exception. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/mlx5: fw_tracer, Validate format string parameters
Add validation for format string parameters in the firmware tracer to
prevent potential security vulnerabilities and crashes from malformed
format strings received from firmware.
The firmware tracer receives format strings from the device firmware and
uses them to format trace messages. Without proper validation, bad
firmware could provide format strings with invalid format specifiers
(e.g., %s, %p, %n) that could lead to crashes, or other undefined
behavior.
Add mlx5_tracer_validate_params() to validate that all format specifiers
in trace strings are limited to safe integer/hex formats (%x, %d, %i,
%u, %llx, %lx, etc.). Reject strings containing other format types that
could be used to access arbitrary memory or cause crashes.
Invalid format strings are added to the trace output for visibility with
"BAD_FORMAT: " prefix. |
| An XML External Entity (XXE) vulnerability in the deserializeArgs() method of Java SDK for CloudEvents v4.0.1 allows attackers to access sensitive information via supplying a crafted XML-formatted event message. |
| DMitry (Deepmagic Information Gathering Tool) 1.3a has a format-string vulnerability, with a threat model similar to CVE-2017-7938. |
| ComSndFTP FTP Server version 1.3.7 Beta contains a format string vulnerability in its handling of the USER command. By sending a specially crafted username containing format specifiers, a remote attacker can overwrite a hardcoded function pointer in memory (specifically WSACleanup from Ws2_32.dll). This allows the attacker to redirect execution flow and bypass DEP protections using a ROP chain, ultimately leading to arbitrary code execution. The vulnerability is exploitable without authentication and affects default configurations. |
| WM Downloader version 3.1.2.2 is vulnerable to a buffer overflow when processing a specially crafted .m3u playlist file. The application fails to properly validate input length, allowing an attacker to overwrite structured exception handler (SEH) records and execute arbitrary code. Exploitation occurs locally when a user opens the malicious file, and the payload executes with the privileges of the current user. |
| ASTEVAL is an evaluator of Python expressions and statements. Prior to version 1.0.6, if an attacker can control the input to the `asteval` library, they can bypass asteval's restrictions and execute arbitrary Python code in the context of the application using the library. The vulnerability is rooted in how `asteval` performs handling of `FormattedValue` AST nodes. In particular, the `on_formattedvalue` value uses the dangerous format method of the str class. The code allows an attacker to manipulate the value of the string used in the dangerous call `fmt.format(__fstring__=val)`. This vulnerability can be exploited to access protected attributes by intentionally triggering an `AttributeError` exception. The attacker can then catch the exception and use its `obj` attribute to gain arbitrary access to sensitive or protected object properties. Version 1.0.6 fixes this issue. |
| A post-authentication format string vulnerability in SonicOS management allows a remote attacker to crash a firewall and potentially leads to code execution. |
