Multiple format string vulnerabilities in FlightGear 2.6 and earlier and SimGear 2.6 and earlier allow user-assisted remote attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary code via format string specifiers in certain data chunk values in an aircraft xml model to (1) fgfs/flightgear/src/Cockpit/panel.cxx or (2) fgfs/flightgear/src/Network/generic.cxx, or (3) a scene graph model to simgear/simgear/scene/model/SGText.cxx.Show less

Format string vulnerability in the log_message_cb function in otr-plugin.c in the Off-the-Record Messaging (OTR) pidgin-otr plugin before 3.2.1 for Pidgin might allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via format string specifiers in data that generates a log message.Show less

Format string vulnerability in the p_cgi_error function in python/neo_cgi.c in the Python CGI Kit (neo_cgi) module for Clearsilver 0.10.5 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via format string specifiers that are not properly handled when creating CGI error messages using the cgi_error API function.Show less

Format string vulnerability in the dkim_exim_verify_finish function in src/dkim.c in Exim before 4.76 might allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (daemon crash) via format string specifiers in data used in DKIM logging, as demonstrated by an identity field containing a % (percent) character.Show less

Format string vulnerability in ECTrace.dll in the iMailGateway service in the Internet Mail Gateway in OneBridge Server and DMZ Proxy in Sybase OneBridge Mobile Data Suite 5.5 and 5.6 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via format string specifiers in unspecified string fields, related to authentication logging.Show less
