CVE-2007-2833 3 Debian, Gnu, Mandrakesoft 4 Debian Linux, Emacs, Mandrake Linux and 1 more 2023-12-10 7.8 HIGH N/A
Emacs 21 allows user-assisted attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via certain crafted images, as demonstrated via a GIF image in vm mode, related to image size calculation.
CVE-2007-5795 2 Debian, Gnu 2 Debian Linux, Emacs 2023-12-10 6.3 MEDIUM N/A
The hack-local-variables function in Emacs before 22.2, when enable-local-variables is set to :safe, does not properly search lists of unsafe or risky variables, which might allow user-assisted attackers to bypass intended restrictions and modify critical program variables via a file containing a Local variables declaration.
CVE-2007-6109 1 Gnu 1 Emacs 2023-12-10 10.0 HIGH N/A
Stack-based buffer overflow in emacs allows user-assisted attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) and possibly have unspecified other impact via a large precision value in an integer format string specifier to the format function, as demonstrated via a certain "emacs -batch -eval" command line.
CVE-2005-0100 1 Gnu 2 Emacs, Xemacs 2023-12-10 7.5 HIGH N/A
Format string vulnerability in the movemail utility in (1) Emacs 20.x, 21.3, and possibly other versions, and (2) XEmacs 21.4 and earlier, allows remote malicious POP3 servers to execute arbitrary code via crafted packets.
CVE-2000-0270 1 Gnu 1 Emacs 2023-12-10 3.6 LOW N/A
The make-temp-name Lisp function in Emacs 20 creates temporary files with predictable names, which allows attackers to conduct a symlink attack.
CVE-2000-0269 1 Gnu 1 Emacs 2023-12-10 2.1 LOW N/A
Emacs 20 does not properly set permissions for a slave PTY device when starting a new subprocess, which allows local users to read or modify communications between Emacs and the subprocess.
CVE-2003-1232 1 Gnu 1 Emacs 2023-12-10 5.1 MEDIUM N/A
Emacs 21.2.1 does not prompt or warn the user before executing Lisp code in the local variables section of a text file, which allows user-assisted attackers to execute arbitrary commands, as demonstrated using the mode-name variable.
CVE-2000-0271 1 Gnu 1 Emacs 2023-12-10 4.6 MEDIUM N/A
read-passwd and other Lisp functions in Emacs 20 do not properly clear the history of recently typed keys, which allows an attacker to read unencrypted passwords.
CVE-2001-1301 2 Gnu, Xemacs 2 Emacs, Xemacs 2023-12-10 1.2 LOW N/A
rcs2log, as used in Emacs 20.4, xemacs 21.1.10 and other versions before 21.4, and possibly other packages, allows local users to modify files of other users via a symlink attack on a temporary file.
