CVE-2008-4284 1 Ibm 1 Websphere Application Server 2025-04-09 N/A
Open redirect vulnerability in the ibm_security_logout servlet in IBM WebSphere Application Server (WAS) 5.1.1.19 and earlier 5.x versions, 6.0.x before 6.0.2.33, and 6.1.x before 6.1.0.23 allows remote attackers to redirect users to arbitrary web sites and conduct phishing attacks via the logoutExitPage feature.
CVE-2008-7247 2 Mysql, Oracle 2 Mysql, Mysql 2025-04-09 N/A
sql/sql_table.cc in MySQL 5.0.x through 5.0.88, 5.1.x through 5.1.41, and 6.0 before 6.0.9-alpha, when the data home directory contains a symlink to a different filesystem, allows remote authenticated users to bypass intended access restrictions by calling CREATE TABLE with a (1) DATA DIRECTORY or (2) INDEX DIRECTORY argument referring to a subdirectory that requires following this symlink.
CVE-2008-4406 1 Debian 1 Xsabre 2025-04-09 N/A
A certain Debian patch to the run scripts for sabre (aka xsabre) 0.2.4b allows local users to delete or overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on unspecified .tmp files.

CVE-2009-4030 3 Mysql, Oracle, Redhat 3 Mysql, Mysql, Enterprise Linux 2025-04-09 N/A
MySQL 5.1.x before 5.1.41 allows local users to bypass certain privilege checks by calling CREATE TABLE on a MyISAM table with modified (1) DATA DIRECTORY or (2) INDEX DIRECTORY arguments that are originally associated with pathnames without symlinks, and that can point to tables created at a future time at which a pathname is modified to contain a symlink to a subdirectory of the MySQL data home directory, related to incorrect calculation of the mysql_unpacked_real_data_home value. NOTE: this vulnerability exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2008-4098 and CVE-2008-2079.
CVE-2008-5377 1 Apple 1 Cups 2025-04-09 N/A
pstopdf in CUPS 1.3.8 allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on the /tmp/pstopdf.log temporary file, a different vulnerability than CVE-2001-1333.
